4. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
I am grateful to be associated with Symbiosis Institute of Business Management –
Bengaluru for providing us thisopportunity to learn, share my ideas, views, and thoughts
on various subjects through this project, undertaken as a part of curriculum
requirements. I would like to thank Abacus Field for providing me the facilities to
accomplish the project.
It has been rightly said that we are built on the shoulders of others but the satisfaction
that accompanies the successful completion of any project would be incomplete without
the mention of the people who made it possible.
I am greatly indebted to my project supervisor Mrs. SeemaKaranth (Field Manager) and
my Project Mentor Mr. Rakesh (Team Leader) for giving me an opportunity to work on
this project going on under the aegis of the Procurement department. Without their able
guidance, constant support and inspiration this project would have not been possible.
The value addition that I derived under their guidance by means of various side
activities such as sharing learning’s by presentations, literature survey, project
facilitation etc. has culminated in a life-long valuable experience.
I would like to thank Dr. Rajesh Panda (Director – Symbiosis Institute of Business
Management, Bengaluru) for giving me the opportunity to take this project as a part of
the course “Summer Internship Programme”. I would also like to thank Dr.V.V.Ajith
Kumar(Deputy Director – Symbiosis Institute of Business Management, Bengaluru).
I express my sincere gratitude to my Internal Faculty Guide, Prof. Saina Baby for her
valuable guidance, support, constant aspiration to work and her kind co-operation
during my Internship phase.

6. Executive Summary
The project was all about the taking the customer feedback of people who are using the
Broadband services. We wanted to know whether they are satisfied with the services
provided by Broadband services or not. We had to take the interviews of the customers
those who are using. We had to take the survey of the users of Broadband services
users.
We had to conductthe market research for the customer feedback regarding the
broadband services they are using in their day to day life.
We were given the project upon which we have to undertake our market
research.
After that we are given the data base & on that basis we have to conduct the
survey.We had to make the calls & take the appointment of the clients
We had to take the interviews & submit the final report to our superiors who
would conduct the market research.After doing the research of Broadband
services we came to know that most of the customers were not satisfied with
the broadband services. Some said that the speed of the broadband service is
not good. Some said its services are not up to the mark.
There were other customers who were very happy about the speed & services
& were loyal towards it. They said they would continue with the broadband
services.
Therefore I feel that the Broadband services should concentrate on the
customers who do not like the speed & services of broadband services &
should improvise the speed & the services.
According to me, the services & speed of broadband services should be
improved so that more customers would be loyal to the broadband services.

7. Chapter 1
Industry Analysis
Key features of Market Research Industry
1. Wide and comprehensive scope - Marketing research has a very wide scope. It
includes product research, packaging research, pricing research, market research,
sales research, etc. It is used to solve marketing problems and to take marketing
decisions. It is used to make marketing policies. It is also used to introduce new
products in the market and to identify new markets. Marketing research is used to
select channels of distribution, in advertising strategy, for sales promotion measures,
etc.
2. Systematic and scientific - Marketing research is conducted in a step-by-step
manner. It is conducted in an orderly fashion. Therefore, it is systematic. Marketing
research uses scientific methods. Thus, it is also scientific.
3. Science and art: A Science collects knowledge (data) while an Art uses this
knowledge for solving problems. Marketing research first collects data. It then uses
this data for solving marketing problems. Therefore, it is both, a Science and an Art.
4. Collects and analyses data - Marketing research gathers data accurately and
objectively. It first collects reliable data and then analyses it systematically and
critically.
5. Continuous and dynamic process - The Company faces marketing problems
throughout the year. So, marketing research is conducted continuously. It
continuously collects up-to-date data for solving the marketing problems. Large
companies have their own marketing research departments. They conduct Marketing
research continuously throughout the year. Therefore, marketing research is a
continuous process. It is a dynamic process because it goes on changing. It does not
remain static (the same). It uses new methods and techniques for collecting, recording
and analysing the data.
6. Tool for decision-making - The marketing manager has to take many decisions. For
this, he requires a lot of data. Marketing research provides correct and up-to-date data
to the marketing manager. This helps him to take quick and correct decisions.
Therefore, marketing research is an important tool for decision-making.
7
8. 7. Benefits Company and consumers - Marketing research is useful to the company in
many ways. It increases the sales and profits of the company. It helps the company to
fight competition and boost its goodwill in the market. It reduces the marketing risks.
In short, marketing research brings success to the company. It also brings the
company closer to the consumers. It gives convenience and satisfaction to the
consumers.
8. Similar to military intelligence - Marketing research is a commercial intelligencegathering activity. It works similar to military intelligence. Marketing intelligence
first makes a systematic study and only then takes a business action. Marketing
research collects reliable data about the consumers, the competitors, the market, etc.
This data is then organised and used for planning, decision-making and problem
solving. This data is also further used for introducing new products and services in
the market.
9. Applied research - Applied research is used for solving problems. Marketing
research is used for solving marketing problems. Therefore, we can say that,
marketing research is also an applied research. It has a practical value because it is
used for solving present and future problems.
10. Connected with MIS - Marketing research is a component of Marketing Information
System (MIS). Marketing research and MIS are interrelated. Both are used to solve
marketing problems and to take marketing decisions.
11. Reduces gap between producers and consumers - Marketing research informs
producers about the needs and wants of the consumers. The producers produce goods
according to the needs and demands of the consumers. This brings satisfaction to the
consumers and in return producers make good profits. So, marketing research reduces
the gap between the producers and the consumers.
12. Uses different methods - Marketing research uses three methods for collecting data,
viz., Survey Method, Experiment Method and Observation Method. All three
methods are scientific. The researcher has to use a suitable method for collecting a
reliable data.
13. Has few limitations - Marketing research has few limitations too. It is not an exact
science. So, it does not give accurate results. It provides suggestions and not
solutions. It is also a costly and time-consuming process.
14. Accurate data collection and critical analysis - Marketing research gives much
importance to accurate data collection and its critical analysis. Thus, in a Marketing
8
9. research, the data must be first collected accurately. That is, collected data or gathered
information must be accurate, reliable and relevant. Later, this information must be
systematically and critically examined before making any decisions.

Five years trend in Marketing Research Industry
Trend 1: Data Streams Will Shift Researcher Focus
With the growing availability of data streams that reflect consumer behaviour, it is
essential that these sources be understood, harnessed, and mined in 2012. Technologies
such as in-store location monitoring, eye tracking, and others generate data that reveal
true consumer activity. Mining these streams will lead to superior marketing
results with a lessened reliance upon survey-based data -- and DIY survey tools in
particular. However, researchers will be required to review, interpret, and limit activities
based upon privacy policies to prevent alienating their audience and exposing
themselves to significant business and legal risk.
Trend 2: Mobile Devices Will Shape New Methodologies
With the exploding use of smartphones and tablets, researchers need to become
intimately familiar with how consumers actually use these devices. This knowledge
must then be translated into methodologies that minimize inconvenience levels and
maximize data quality. Simplified apps producing actionable data, single question
surveys, and other approaches that reflect how these devices are used will be essential to
developing and defending reliable research methods for this "new world."
Trend 3: Insights from Unstructured Text Will Become More Precise
9
10. More than any previous year, new technology will be developed in 2012 to accurately
interpret blogs, online comments, and Facebook postings. Such tools will provide
marketers and brand stewards with real-time insights that reduce the reliance upon
traditional data capture methods.
Trend 4: Completion Rates for Online Surveys Will Continue to Plummet
By no means is this a new trend, but the erosion of cooperation and completion rates
will continue. Surveys requiring more than 5 minutes will falter and data quality will
further suffer from random input. Regrettably, there will be no ability to correct datasets
as traditional approaches such as weighting and data bridging will be unsuccessful. And
we anticipate a larger presence of "survey bots" that will further reduce the accuracy of
and confidence in survey data.
Trend 5: Brands Will Accelerate Direct Access to Their Customers
Again, this is not a new trend -- but one that will continue to grow in importance and
pervasiveness. Large brands will invest heavily in dis-intermediating methods such as
Facebook, smartphone/tablet apps, and couponing to better understand their audiences
and drive sales. These coveted relationships will become the cornerstone for product
feedback and drive product innovation.
Trend 6: Research Patents Will Be Actively Enforced
With growing competition chasing stagnant research budgets, organizations with
patents will flex their muscle in 2012. This action is long overdue within the market
research industry. The coming patent wars will redefine the offerings of many research
firms and spark industry consolidation.
Trend 7: Overall Research Budgets Will Experience Limited Growth
Despite decades of growth, we expect the overall spending for market research will
grow at rates no greater than the CPI for the foreseeable future. Buyers of market
research will pass along cost containment pressures to their suppliers. The ability to
leverage technology and automate tasks will be essential for research organizations to
maintain margins.
10
11. Trend 8: Prices for Syndicated Research will Remain Stable; Custom Research
and Sample Access Will Decrease
As custom research and access to sample continue their drive toward commoditized
services, research buyers will be willing (and expect) to pay less. Regrettably, the use of
offshoring that once enhanced supplier margins will serve to limit pricing power given
perceptions of limited data quality. However, the unique insights provided by well
recognized analysts will enable syndicated research firms to maintain -- and perhaps
even increase -- prices.
Trend 9: New Skill Sets Will Be Required -- Paying Substantially More
Research professionals will need to develop the ability to manage large, disaggregated
datasets. In particular, researchers will need to master SQL and SAS/SPSS at a
minimum. Furthermore, researchers will be required to have a fundamental
understanding of the Internet and how it works -- technically. And those who possess
these skills will be in great demand -- easily commanding salaries between $100,000 to
$200,000 per year.
Trend 10: Job Hopping Becomes Popular Among the Most Skilled MR
Professionals
Researchers with the skills will job-hop seeking new challenges and greater
compensation. In an attempt to keep their best, retention measures (bonus, options, etc.)
will quietly become commonplace. For perhaps the first time in the MR industry,
compensation will be based upon what a researcher can do rather than what they have
dome’s

Research Methodology
First of all we are given the project upon which we have to undertake our market
research.
After that we are given the data base & on that basis we have to conduct the
survey.
We have to make the calls & take the appointment of the clients.
We have to take the interviews & submit the final report to our superiors who
would conduct the market research.
Limitation of Study
The data base which we are given is inappropriate in nature. Sometimes the
numbers are proper & sometimes address are wrong. The database is not updated.
When a business person gives us appointment, they do not turn during the day of
the appointment. Some of them are uninterested while some do not pick up the
calls. His appointments are being fixed by the clients but when we go at their
place cancel the appointment or postpone the appointment. Sometimes they say
that they have not given us appointments.

Finding & Conclusion
After doing the research of Broadband services we came to know that most of
the customers were not satisfied with the broadband services. Some said that
the speed of the broadband service is not good. Some said its services are not
up to the mark.
There were other customers who were very happy about the speed & services
& were loyal towards it. They said they would continue with the broadband
services.
Therefore I feel that the Broadband services should concentrate on the
customers who do not like the speed & services of broadband services &
should improvise the speed & the services.
Suggestions
According to me, the services & speed of broadband services should be
improved so that more customers would be loyal to the broadband services.
