CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION BRAND AWARENESS

A study on Brand awareness

CHAPTER 1 1.1. INTRODUCTION:


A brand is defined as a name, term, sign, symbol (or) special design of these elements that is intended to identify the good (or) service of one seller (or) a group of seller

BRAND AWARENESS:
The likelihood that consumers recognize the existence and availability of a companys product or service. Creating brand awareness is one of the key steps in promoting a product.

Example:
In the soft drink industry, very little separates a generic soda from a brand-name soda, in terms of taste. However, consumers are very aware of the brands Pepsi and Coca Cola, in terms of their images and names. This higher rate of brand awareness equates to higher sales and also serves as an economic most that prevents competitors from gaining more market share.

1.1.1 TYPES OF BRAND: Product


The most common brand is that associated with a tangible product, such as a car or drink. This can be very specific or may indicate a range of products. In any case, there is always a unifying element that is the 'brand' being referred to in the given case.

Individual product
Product brands can be very specific, indicating a single product, such as classic Coca-Cola. It can also include particular physical forms, such as Coca-cola in a traditional bottle or a can.

Product range
Product brands can also be associated with a range, such as the Mercedes S-class cars or all varieties of Colgate toothpaste.

Service
As companies move from manufacturing products to delivering complete solutions and intangible services, the brand is about the 'service'. Service brands are about what is done, when it is done, who does it, etc. It is much more variable than products brands, where variation can be eliminated on the production line. Even in companies such as McDonald's where the service has been standardized down to the eye contact and smile, variation still occurs. Consistency can be a problem in service: we expect some variation, and the same smile every time can turn into an annoyance as we feel we are being manipulated. Service brands need a lot more understanding than product brands.

Organization
Organizations are brands, whether it is a company that delivers products and services or some other group. Thus Greenpeace, Mercedes and the US Senate are all defined organizations and each has qualities associated with them that constitute the brand. In once sense, the brand of the organization is created as the sum of its products and services. After all, this is all we can see and experience of the organization. Looking at it another way, the flow also goes the other way: the intent of the managers of the organization permeates downwards into the products and the services which project a common element of that intent.

Person
The person brand is focused on one or a few individuals, where the branding is associated with personality.

Idividual
A pure individual brand is based on one person, such as celebrity actor or singer. The brand can be their natural person or a carefully crafted projection. Politicians work had to project a brand that is attractive to their electorate (and also work hard to keep their skeletons firmly in the cupboard). In a similar way, rock stars who want to appear cool also are playing to a stereotype.

Group
Not much higher in detail than an individual is the brand of a group. In particular when this is a small group and the individuals are known, the group brand and the individual brand overlap, for example in the way that the brand of a pop group and the brand of its known members are strongly connected. Organizations can also be linked closely with the brand of an individual, for example Virgin is closely linked with Richard Branson.

Event
Events have brands too, whether they are rock concerts, the Olympics, a space-rocket launch or a town-hall dance. Event brands are strongly connected with the experience of the people attending, for example with musical pleasure or amazement at human feats. Product, service and other brands realize the power of event brands and seek to have their brands associated with the event brands. Thus sponsorship of events is now big business as one brand tries to get leverage from the essence of the event, such as excitement and danger of car racing.

Geography
Areas of the world also have essential qualities that are seen as characterizations, and hence also have brand. These areas can range from countries to state to cities to streets and buildings. Those who govern or represent these geographies will work hard to develop the brand. Cities, for example, may have de-facto brands of being dangerous or safe, cultural or bland, which will be used by potential tourists in their decisions to visit and by companies in their decisions on where to set up places of employment

1.3 NEED FOR THE STUDY:


Brand awareness is an important way of promoting commodity-related products.

This is because for these products, there are very few factors that differentiate one product from its competitors.

Therefore, the product that maintains the highest brand awareness compared to its competitors will usually get the most sales.

1.4 RESEARCH METHDOLOGY: Marketing Research:


According to American Marketing Association (AMA): Marketing Research is the function which links the consumer, customer, and public to the marketer through information-information used to identify and define marketing opportunities and problems; generate, refine, and evaluate marketing actions; monitor marketing performance; and improve understanding of market as a process.

Primary Data:
Those data which are collected at first hand either by the researcher or by someone else especially for the purpose of the study are known as primary data.

CHAPTER 2
2.1 REVIEW OF LITERATURE: 2.1.1 BRAND AWARENESS:
The likelihood that consumers recognize the existence and availability of a companys product or service. Creating brand awareness is one of the key steps in promoting a product. BuildingConsumerBrandAwareness by Steve French Branding has always been one of the most imperative factors in building a successful business, whether it be foods, supplements, beverages, retail stores or any other consumer product or service. As so, within the world of healthy and natural products, the importance of branding is paramount. Indeed, most of us are aware that branding within the natural products channel is actually a paradoxical statement. It's one of two things--either consumer within this channel do not form the same relationships with brands as do mainstream consumers, or marketers within the channel, due to a variety of factors, have not executed optimal brandbuilding techniques. Research by the Natural Marketing Institute (NMI), entitled The Natural Marketplace Trends Report (NMTR), confirms that brand awareness and related issues are significantly different within the natural products environment. According to the NMTR, based on a nationally project able sample of 1,800 consumer households, overall brand awareness with top natural product brands is relatively low. The average brand awareness level of 53 top natural brands among consumers who shop the natural product channel is 20 percent. As expected, this brand awareness level is 25 percent lower (15 percent) among the general population, a phenomenon driven by the distribution of these brands and the inherent channel niche in which some of these brands operate.

RGMCET, Nandyal

A study on Brand awareness Understanding this consumer brand behavior is essential to the development of new brands, the continued growth of existing brands and/or the revitalization of "challenged" brands. A brand is a unique identity used to differentiate and identify a product in a meaningful and relevant way to a group of consumers. The product is the physical evidence of a brand that has specific features and attributes. Brand success is measured by consumer loyalty, which requires a consistent delivery of the brand promise. This brand promise is comprised of product benefits and rewards for the consumer. Within the brand it is a carefully crafted brand personality and essence. In summary, without brands, all products and services would be equal with gene refits

2.1.2 4 Ways to grow brand awareness:


Selling Your Brand Building brand awareness is an important part of any marketing or PR strategy. It can be frustrating to do, since unlike a more direct lead-generation campaign, its difficult to measure return on investment. The real value of brand awareness comes from differentiating your business from the herd. Your RFP response will carry more weight if readers are already familiar with what you have to offer. In the end, your efforts to build brand awareness will help your marketing efforts in both the public and private sectors. Many businesses invest in costly print or radio ads to build their brands. If your company isnt ready to lay out that kind of money, here are four alternative branding strategies:

2.1.3 Brand Awareness Strategies:


1. Sponsor a booth at a trade show: While a trade show booth still involves a substantial cash outlay, its a more targeted solution than taking out print ads; it allows you to build brand awareness in a smaller and more specific audience. Going to every trade show and expo in your industry is going to be prohibitively expensive for most companies, so its important to pick and choose wisely. Bigger
13

RGMCET, Nandyal

A study on Brand awareness isnt always better if your products fill a specific market niche, going to the biggest expo in the industry might not get you the brand awareness you want. Do your research and choose trade shows that your target audience (government and private sector buyers) will be attending. It wont do you much good if the only people who build awareness of your brand are competitors. Once you choose an event thats right for your company, make sure your logo is cle arly visible on your booth materials. Try to work your unique value proposition into both your display items and any written materials you hand out what makes your company special? Free give-away items like pens or toys are an extra expense, but they also give your customers something to take with them that have your company name and value proposition on it. 2. Give a speech or participate in a panel discussion: Are you an authority on a certain subject? Investigate speaking opportunities for upcoming conferences. Not only will this let you show off your knowledge and expertise, your name and company name will appear in materials given to every conference attendee. As with all conferences, dont forget to network, network, network knowing that your speaking appearance will give you increased visibility and conversation starters. It will also increase the likelihood that your new contacts from the conference will remember you when you follow up with them. If you can speak articulately and intelligently on a topic in your market, you position your company as an authority on that same topic, building brand awareness.

3. Sponsor an online newsletter:


Buying ad space in a popular e-newsletter has some large advantages over print advertising. First of all, the cost is in most cases much lower. Secondly, its easier to track your return on investment most web analytics software will allow you to track how much traffic your newsletter ad drives to your website. Try it out for a month or two; if the ad doesnt get more visitors to come to your site, you can always switch ads or switch newsletters until you find the right mix. Even the readers who click on your ad will still dont see it associated with a publication they trust, which will help them associate your brand with that trust.

14

RGMCET, Nandyal

4. Write an article:
Using the same expertise youd apply to your conference speech, consider writing an informative article or white paper. Comment on strategies, industry trends, or impart an amusing business anecdote and the lessons you took away from it. Search for industry publications that allow submissions of bylined articles. Make sure to mention your branding awareness statements in the article, but dont make your article just a sales pitch for your company. Youll have a better chance of being published if you keep it informative and make sure the content will be useful for your audience.

2.2 BRAND AWARENESS TESTING SOLUTIONS:


Knowing where your brand is positioned in the marketplace provides powerful information when it comes to maintaining maximum possible market share through the careful management of this positioning. Carrying out regular brand awareness studies can also provide the necessary data to determine the true value of the brand, which of course directly af fects the organizations financial worth. Using proven questionnaire design techniques that can also include graphics, sound or video media, many aspects of brand awareness can be tested for including:

Brand/product associations Brand preferences Value perceptions Buyer profile variances Positioning vs. competitor brands Brand association with advertising Movement of awareness and positioning following campaigns Market share Questionnaires that follow your preferred look and feel design can be created easily using the intuitive online design tools and Survey Shack can also provide you with ready made response panels of consumers or specialist industrial markets to carry out your brand awareness feedback researchwith.

2.2.2 BUILDING BRAND AWARENESS THROUGH TRADESHOWS:


By Susan Friedman
Branding is a basic marketing concept that is designed to set your products/services apart from the competition. By using a particular name, phrase, design, symbol or a combination of these, you can create a unique identity. When choosing a brand name, consider the following five criteria: 1. It should suggest product/service benefits. 2. It should be simple, memorable, and unique. 3. It should fit the image of the company. 4. It should have positive connotations for the target market. 5. It should be easy to pronounce and to pictorialize. Branding is not a sales and marketing gimmick. Instead it refines and defines corporate culture and identity. A brand must have meaning to its consumers, its organization and its employees. Brand is an emotional link between you and your customer. It is what people buy
16

RGMCET, Nandyal

A study on Brand awareness when they buy your product or your company. The most important part of a brand's identity is the promise it makes to customers. The essence of branding is simplicity and timelessness. Integrating Brand Awareness into Your Exhibit Program Since exhibiting is a powerful extension of your company's advertising, promotion, public relations and sales function that automatically means it is an excellent way to enhance brand awareness. Everything your company stands for, no matter how large or small, is being exhibited on the show floor. This means there needs to be total consistency, congruity, clarity and focus in every aspect of your exhibiting program, before, during and after the show. Here are three important points to consider as you plan to integrate brand awareness into your tradeshow program. 1. Consistency and repetition is vital in creating brand awareness. People buy brands they know and they trust! A brand is a promise that companies make to their customers. Strong branding requires all the levels of communication to agree with one another. 2. Ensure all your marketing and promotions are consistent and that they have your logo, colors, typeface, slogans and characters. Everything you develop should have the same look and feel. 3. Peoples' perception about your company, products, and services is a major factor in their choice of brand preferences and their buying behavior. All perception is subjective and based on experience. Individuals tend to interpret information according to existing beliefs, attitudes, needs and mood.

CHARTER 3
3.1 COMPANY PROFILE FOUNDERS PROFILE:

Few men in history have made as dramatic a contribution to their countrys economic fortunes .One among them is the founder of Reliance, Sh. Dhirubhai H Ambani. Fewer still have left behind a legacy that is more enduring and timeless. As with all great pioneers, there is more than one unique way of describing the true genius of Dhirubhai: The corporate visionary, the unmatched strategist, the proud patriot, the leader of men, the architect of Indias capital markets, and the champion of shareholder interest. . But the role Dhirubhai cherished most was perhaps that of Indias greatest wealth creator. In one lifetime, he built, starting from the proverbial scratch, Indias largest private sector enterprise. When Dhirubhai embarked on his first business venture, he had a seed capital of barely US$ 300 (around Rs 14,000). Over the next three and a half decades, he converted this fledgling enterprise into an Rs 60,000 crore colossus-an achievement which earned Reliance a place on the global Fortune 500 list, the first ever Indian private company to do so. Dhirubhai is widely regarded as the father of Indias capital markets. In 1977, when Reliance Textile Industries Limited first went public, the Indian stock market was a place patronized by a small club of elite investors which dabbled in a handful of stocks. Undaunted, Dhirubhai managed to convince a large number of first-time retail investors to participate in the unfolding Reliance story and put their hard-earned money in the Reliance Textile IPO, promising them, in exchange for their trust, substantial return on their investments.
