ж Methodology:

Methods followed to perform a job or conducting activities to complete a task is called

methodology. In conducting this study the following methodology was adopted in collecting

data & information, preparation of reports etc.

ж Type of research:

The purpose of market research is to provide relevant data that will help solve marketing

problems a business will encounter. This is absolutely necessary in the start-up phase.

Conducting thorough market surveys is the foundation of any successful business. In fact,

strategies such as market segmentation and product differentiation would be impossible to

develop without market research.

There is several kind of research approach; we use descriptive research approach for analysis

marketing mix of coca-cola. Descriptive research is to describe things, such as the market

potential for a product or the demographics and attitudes of consumer who buy the product.

To use this approach we analysis market mix and consumer satisfaction level of coca-cola.

ж Sources of data:

To gather company information we use both primary data and secondary data.

ж Secondary data:

Secondary data consist of information that already exists somewhere, having been collected

for another purpose. Secondary data provided a good starting point for research and often help

to define research problem and objectives. This is available more quickly and at a lower cost

then primary data. We collect secondary data form Internet, Business magazine.

- 7 -

Page 8: Coca cola

ж Primary data:

Primary data consist information collected for the specific purpose at hand. We collect

primary data form consumer and company through some question. For example, to consumer

“Are you satisfied about test of coca-cola”, “Which advertisement you like most?”, “What

price level you expected from Coca-Cola?”, to company “What type of discount you provided

to your consumer?”,

“What are you doing to increase your sales?”, “How you full fill consumer need of coca-cola

in Bangladesh?”

ж Research approach for primary data collection:

Research approach for gathering primary data collection we use both observational and

surveys approach.

Observational research involves gathering primary data by observing relevant people, action

and situation. Observational research can obtain information that people are unwilling or

unable to provide. In some case, observation may be the only way to obtain the needed

information. In contrast, some thing simply cannot be observed, such as feelings, attitudes and

motives, or private behavior .long-term or infrequent behavior is also difficult to observe.

Because of this limitation, we use observation method long with surveys data collection

method. We use observational research approach when we asking question to the consumer or

to the company employee.

Survey research, involves gathering of primary data by asking people question about their

knowledge, attitude, preference and buying behavior. This is the most widely used method for

primary data collection, is the approach best suited for gathering descriptive information .The

major advantage of survey research is its flexibility it can be used to obtain many difficult

kind of information in many different situation. We use survey research approach by making

questioner for consumer and company.

- 8 -

Page 9: Coca cola

ж Contact method for primary data collection:

Information can be collected by mail, telephone, and personal interview or online. We use

personal interview to collect primary data. Personal interviewing takes two forms individual

and focus group.

Individual interviewing involves talking with people in their homes or office, on the streets,

or in the shopping malls. This form of interview is fixable .Through this form interviewing

can ask different types of question and observe reactions and behavior of consumers. We use

this form to collect our information.

Focus group interviewing involves inviting 6 to 10 people to gather for a few hours with an

interviewer to talk about a product, services, or organization, the interviewer “focus” the

group discussion on important issues. We use this form when we conducting group

discussion.

ж Sampling plan for primary data collection:

We draw a conclusion about larger groups of consumer by studying a small sample of total

consumer population. A sample is a segment of the population selected to represents the

population as a whole. By that we can make accurate estimates of the thoughts and behaviors

of the larger population. We take no probability convenience sample. This represents the

researches selects the easiest population members form which to obtain information. We

select 30 people form our family for primary data collection.

ж Research instruments:

To collect primary data we use questioner. We use objectives type question and open

question.

Page 10: Coca cola

ж Limitation of the study:

Every company has some secrecy, which cannot be and should not be disclose to an outsider

so we had some limitations to enter in to the affairs of the company in depth. Moreover, the

employees of the company had their own routine duties. In spite of their full cooperation we

failed to discuss about every intended aspects in details.

ж Lack of information:

Information on which is so important for prepare a report. The main limitation of our making

report is lack of information. The limited sources of secondary information and the controlled

accessibility caused difficulty in getting the confidential information. For example, records of

product real price were restricted as it is not private limited company

Although we are not got enough information from internet about coca-cola on basic of

Bangladesh market

ж Lack of time:

Our course duration is in limit time. In this short time we can not prepare our report properly.

ж Lack of marketing intelligence:

Marketing intelligence is systematically collection and analysis of public available

information but to be a student we have lack of marketing intelligence. For lack of marketing

intelligence we can not get collect information.

ж Lack of professional knowledge:

As a student we are not professional about marketing analysis. Professional researcher has

vast knowledge about marketing analysis. For lack of professional knowledge we can not

make our report properly.

ж Marketing mix:

The set of controllable tactical marketing elements product, price, place, promotion-which the

firm blends to produce the response it wants to the targeted market.

These four elements are often referred to as the 4Ps of the marketing mix. A marketer can use

these variables to craft a marketing plan. The four Ps model is most useful when marketing

sufficient number of vehicle to disturbed Coca-Cola.

organization goal.

3. Security system:

Every organization should ensure the security system for their safety. So this organization

has taken strong and sufficient security system to prevent the critical disaster situation.

company. Coca-Cola Company never compromise with quality.

6. Sufficient use of computer:

These organizations give the interest on using of computer broadly. They use the

computer in every sector.

X Lacking of this company

1. Narrow coverage area:

Tabanay beverage covers only Dhaka and Rajshahi division.

2. Limited advertisement:

Advertisement is an important instrument for incising sales but Coca-Cola Company

telecast little advertisement.

3. No plastic bottle production sector:

Tabanay beverage has no capacity to produce plastic bottle for that reason they loss

their profit.

4. Insufficient wage for the casual worker:

In the company there are many casual workers. They work hard for the company but

their wage is not sufficient as their hard work.

- 29 -

Page 30: Coca cola

5. Not enough facilities for casual workers:

Casual workers don’t get their wage timely .That’s why workers can’t do their work

at their best & their productive will be low.

6. No social working:

This organization doesn’t take any social task for that society. But they should do

because they operate their business in a society and that’s why they should have some

responsibility.

Suggestions:

X Increasing promotional activities with:

1. Discounts for buying in bulk.

2. Sticker/glass/other small gifts for buying more than two.

3. Print signs inside the cap that would provide consumers either with gift or

with good luck statements.

4. Provide 'luck-notes' inside the caps like fortune-cookies.

5. By sponsoring games/musical events/art shows/drama/cleaning programmers/

school event etc which would bring the consumers closer to Coca-Cola. And

promote Tabany Beverage to be socially responsible company.

X Advertising should be more concentrated on with use of present Medias like

advertisement on TV’s, Radios, newspapers and magazines and alternative media

like the following:

1. Huge Dummy Bottle in selected visible locations.

2. Neon Signs in selected visible locations

- 30 -

Page 31: Coca cola

3. Paintings, Stickers and posters of Cock and on the sided and back panels of

local as well as inter city buses.

ж Conclusion:

From the visiting of Tabany Beverage we have identified that the beverage industry is

growing and identified their main weakness is insufficient promotional activities. A gap in the

market is also identified not explored by Tabany Beverage. On the other side, distribution

system is the strengths of Tabany Beverage.

From strategic marketing point of view, we see that Coca - Cola is taking corrective steps in

almost all the way. In very few sides Tabany beverage has lacking. Based upon these facts

recommended strategies would assist in the growth of Tabany Beverage in among the fierce

competition in the beverage industry.
