    PREFACE

    The project work entitled A STUDY ON JOB CUSTOMER

    SATISFACTION OF TATA DOCOMO Job Satisfaction is the favorableness or

    un-favorableness with which the employee views his work. It expresses the amount

    of agreement between ones expectation of the job and the rewards that the job

    provides. Job Satisfaction is a part of life satisfaction. The nature of ones

    environment of job is an important part of life as Job Satisfaction influences ones

    general life satisfaction.

    Job Satisfaction, thus, is the result of various attitudes possessed by an employee. In

    a narrow sense, these attitudes are related to the job under condition with such

    specific factors such as wages. Supervisors of employment, conditions of work, social

    relation on the job, prompt settlement of grievances and fair treatment by employer.

    However, more comprehensive approach requires that many factors are to be

    included before a complete understanding of job satisfaction can be obtained. Such

    factors as employees age, health temperature, desire and level of aspiration should

    be considered. Further his family relationship, Social status, recreational outlets,

    activity in the organizations etc.

    Contribute ultimately to job satisfaction.

    INTRODUCTION

    Theoretical Framework

    Customer Satisfaction

    The 21-century belongs to the service sector. The customer of yesteryearwas a silent person who uncomplainingly purchased the goods from themarket place. There is a new customer emerging today. Customersatisfaction can be defined as, customer satisfaction is the feeling derived bythe consumer when he compares the actual performance of the productswith the performance that he expects of it.

    The measurement of the customer satisfaction typically begging when a

    company realizes that their customer s are the people who provide therevenues that, hopeful, will cover expenses. Most companies start byestablishing a customer satisfaction baseline. Then they target year by yearimprovement.

    Understanding customer requirement and delivering superior quality goodsand services to achieve composer satisfaction lead to the retention andgrowth of the customer.

    General Idea about the satisfied customer:

    Satisfaction is a personas feeling of the pleasure or disappointment. It isresulting from comparing a products perceived performance with his or herexpectations from it. Satisfaction is more of an emotional concept. Todayorganization are aiming at high satisfaction rather then at customer delight

    because customers who are just satisfied still find it easy to switch overwhen a batter offers comes along. Those who are highly satisfied are muchless ready to switch over. High satisfaction or delight creates an emotional

    bound with the brand and customer starts looking at an offering emotionally

    and just rationally.

    The aim of marketing is to meet and satisfy target customers needs andwants but knowing customer is never simple. Customer may state theirneeds and wants but act otherwise. They may not be in touch with theirdeeper motivations. They may respond to influential to change their mind atthe last minute. Some of todays most successful companies are raising

  • 7/28/2019 Tata Do Como Satisfaction

    7/41

    expectation and delivering performances to match. These companies areaiming at TCS- Total customer Satisfaction.

    Increasing competition (whether for-profit or nonprofit) is forcingbusinesses to pay much more attention to satisfying customers. In acompetitive marketplace where businesses compete for customers, customersatisfaction is seen as a key differentiator and increasingly has become a keyelement of business strategy.

    Customer Loyalty

    These four factors will greatly affect your ability to build a loyalcustomer base:

    Products that are highly differentiated from those of the competition.

    Higher-end products where price is not the primary buying factor.

    Products with a high service component.

    Multiple products for the same customer.

    Loyal Customers and Loyal Workforces

    Building customer loyalty will be a lot easier if you have a loyal workforce-not at all a given these days. It is especially important to retain thoseemployees who interact with customers such as sales people, technicalsupport, and customer-service people. Many companies give a lot of

    attention to retaining sales people but little to support people.

    The increasing trend today is to send customer-service and technical-supportcalls into queue for the next available person. This builds no personal loyaltyand probably less loyalty for the firm. Before going this route, be sure this iswhat your customers prefer.

    Instant Feedback

    Recently, many organizations have implemented feedback loops that allowthem to capture feedback at the point of experience. For example, NationalExpress, one of the UK's leading travel companies invites passengers to sendtext messages whilst riding the bus. This has been shown to be useful as itallows companies to improve their customer service before the customerdefects, thus making it far more likely that the customer will return nexttime.

    Listen to your customers.

    Is there anything more exasperating than telling someone what you want orwhat your problem is and then discovering that that person hasnt been

    paying attention and needs to have it explained again? From a customerspoint of view, I doubt it. Can the sales pitches and the product babble. Letthe customer talk and show them that you are listening by making theappropriate responses, such as suggesting how to solve the problem.

    TOOLS FOR TRACKING AND MEASURING

    CUSTOMER SATISFACTION

    Complain and suggestion systems:

    A customer centered organization makes it easy for its customer to deliversuggestion and complaints. Many restaurants and hotels provide forms forguests to report what they liked and disliked there. Some companiesestablish hot lines whit toll-free telephone numbers. Companies are alsoadding Web pages E-mail to facilitate two way communications

    Satisfaction customer survey:

    Studies show that although customers are dissatisfied with one out of everyfour purchases, less than 5 percent of dis satisfied customer will complain.Most customers buy less or switch over to other suppliers. Responsivecompanies measure customer satisfaction directly by conducting periodicsurvey s. They send questionnaires or make telephone calls to a randomsample of recent customer.

    Lost customers analysis:

    Companies should contact customer who have stopped buying or who haveswitched over to another supplier to learn why this happened. Not only it isimportant to conduct exit interviews when customers first stop buying, but itis also necessary to monitor the customer loss rate.

    PROMOTIONAL ACTIVITIES

    Promotion is fundamentally a tool to help apprise consumers of products andservices available to them. However, promotional activities today includevarious forms of advertising as well as promotional gimmicks such asdirigibles at football games, coupons, and frequent flier miles. The goal of

    promotion is no longer simply product awareness, but brand awareness,product loyalty and even corporate image.

    Many different promotions have come under criticism, particularly whenthey are judged to be illegal or unfair. Bait-and-switch refers to the practiceof advertising one product at a low price, but having none of that product onhand when consumers arrive to make the purchase. Conveniently, this

    technique results in the seller having other, similar, more expensive productsavailable.

    Putting aside the issue of promotional activities that are illegal, there remainexamples of promotions that may be unscrupulous, or perhaps merely

    prejudicial. The potential for this arises when promotional activities are notdirectly associated with the product or service that is ostensibly being

    promoted. As an example, Virginia Slims sponsored a women's tennistournament for many years. The sport of tennis received the financial

    backing, and the cigarette was associated with a popular sport and received

    considerable publicity as its name was mentioned in legitimate sportscoverage.

    MARKETING STRATEGY

    Tata Docomo appears to be banking heavily on its tariff plans the companyis offering a 1 second pulse instead of the usual 1 minute pulse that other

    telecom operators are offering. This means that consumers are charged on aper second basis, instead of a per minute basis, and end up saving money onunused seconds. A nifty little application How much can you really saveon Docomos website explains how this works. Rs. 0.01/second is a markedchange from the Re 1/min and Rs. 0.49/min charges that usually applies.

    Now while this plan might sound unique, it isnt that it hasnt been triedbefore: back in 2004, Tata Indicom had launched 1 second pulse plans,which going by their current plans, appears to have been shelved.

    the telecom pie. The launch of Tata Docomo also announced the intention ofthe brand to associate with the thought 'do'. Tata Docomo, for the first timein the country, offered pay-per-second billing; though other telecom

    providers have followed suit since. The company has carried out a fewadverts that highlight the brand's unique features and some other topicaladvertising during Ganesh Chaturthi and Diwali. The latest from the GSM

    provider is the 'Friendship Express' TVC. The ad opens inside train, whereeveryone is doing their own thing. A couple of the travelers don't like thesolemn mood and start humming the Docomo tune. Slowly and steadily,others pitch in and soon most of the train is singing along. The ad ends with

    the super, 'Why walk alone when we can dance together'.

    FINDINGS

    It is found that TATA Teleservices is the first company to launch prepaid1 pec. p/sec. services in the country.

    The call rates are found to be at par with the other competitors.

    The availability of the recharge voucher was found good. But some timeit is not available.

    Most of the respondents found the customer care service is notsatisfactory.

    Nearly all the respondents told that Quick Problem Solving is desirablequality in the customer care Executives.

    The queries and problem of the customer were solved but notimmediately, there is a scope for improvement.

    More stress was given on customer acquisition then satisfying theExisting customers.

    While conducting a survey it was found that still many people are notaware of the term GSM and CDMA even they basic difference betweenthem.

    The voise clarity of GSM is batter than CDMA. When CDMA phones arenear any digital or magnetic instrument the poor crack due to interferenceand also cross connection problems are faced by some of the users.

    GSM users are satisfied with good coverage strength anywhere.

    Many people who are interested in internet connectivity and data transferservices get attracted to GSM . As internet connectivity and data transfer ischeaper with GSM.

    It is found that international roaming facility is not so good as is shouldbe.

    SUGGESTION

    The availability of recharge voucher should be made available whenrequired by the customers. As this give the good impression about thecompany.

    The network coverage is another asset for the companys image, whichneeds to be preserved in future.

    The overall image of the customer care services was found to be good butwith some loopholes related to delays in problem solving.

    The company should be more prompt in handling the queries and

    problem of the customer, which is vary essential for the prepaid card so as toretain the customers with the company in future.

    The customer care executives should be more efficient in handling thecustomer and also more friendly and polite their conversation ,while dealingwith the customer.

    After sales service is required to be maintained properly, which is not upto the mark.

    Call rates is affordable so it should be maintained at this level.

    Many people are using mobile, but majority of them are not aware of thetechnology they are using . many tine it happens that a person doesnt knowwhich technology satisfied his need. Hence awareness should be createdamong them regarding advantages and differences in the technology.

    Supplementary facilities like call wait, call forward, call hold, call divert,call conference should be made more effective to attract customers.

    SUGGESTION AND RECAMANDATION

  • 7/28/2019 Tata Do Como Satisfaction

    34/41

    In the organization most of employees are satisfied with all the facilities provided by

    company. But there are some employees also who are not satisfied with the company.

    Management should try to convert unsatisfied employees in to satisfied employees.

    Because if employee is not satisfied than the he is not able to give his 100% to his work

    and the productivity of employee decrease. So management should try to satisfied his

    employees because employees are the assets of the company not a liabilities.

    CONCLUSION

  • 7/28/2019 Tata Do Como Satisfaction

    35/41

    After analyzing and interpretation of the various graphs and findings I havearrived at the conclusion that the overall satisfaction level of GSM prepaidcustomer is good. In some reference and in other they are not satisfied. AsTATA communication is a brand name in itself so customer feel good forthat and also expects a lot from that. And when their expectations dontmatch with company service, whatever they provide, they becomedissatisfied.

    For long run process brand image and price plays a vary important role insuccess and elements of brand equity are:

    The awareness it enjoy, the advertising viewer ship it has the image orperceived quality in the mind of customer, advertising association andsymbol. Successful development of brand equity that drives the mark

    position, persisting over long period of time and is capable of resistingcompetitors.

    The new competition is not between what companies produce in theirfactories, but between what value they add to their products in the form ofmaximum customer satisfaction, after sales service etc.

    I wish that company would achieve its goal with all their effort.
