Special events, where the company takes an opportunity to exploit and penetrate into the market by presenting new products or taking aggressive decisions with regards to their ongoing product lines. Usually TOP management is involved in such tools. They take the opportunity to go for joint ventures, making business relationships for mutual business in future etc.

Audiovisual materials are nothing but public announcements usually made through media such as radio, TV, internet, billboards etc. Companies show their support and commitment with other market pioneers for mutual interest or they may even give public message with regards to safety, environment and target the audience to make an optimistic position in their mind.

Company identity material can be exploited under the name of branding where companies have reputed brands under their title. Such brands can be associated with moral, ethical, societal, emotional support to the public and make a strong bond. For e.g. Recently Ufone has donated about 113.2 Million Rupees for people affected by Flood. Such actions will strengthen their bond with the public and definitely make a positive impact.






Question No: 53 ( Marks: 5 )
What is customer value and customer satisfaction? Also write down the relationship between these two terms.

Answer:

Customer Value:- It is how a customer is valued with regards to a targeted market. The position a customer holds and in vice versa what position does the product hold in customers mind. How does he value the product or service from a particular company? For e.g. the customer service offered by UFONE is quite effective and appreciated. This gives an impression of greater customer value in customer’s own mind. When UFONE recently launched discounted IR rates just prior to starting of Ramadan especially for people in KSA, it did target customer’s mind set which will be looking to get in contact with their relatives who will go to KSA to perform UMRAH.

Customer Satisfaction:- It is how the customer feels about being treated and whether the product did serve its purpose as expected by the customer. If UFONE-2-UFONE calls are made during load of midnight calls due to promotions offered by UFONE to give night calls at discounted rate, did the service of calls drop down? Was the reception and transmission of voice clear? Was there any unfair billing? When such questions come across a customer’s mind and he feels that everything was on fair basis, the customer feels satisfied for spending his money on that product or service.


Relationship between customer value and customer satisfaction:

Customer value turns into customer satisfaction when the customer feels that the services he gained were to his position and were well paid off. It is more of a transition from being a focus point of service to being served well. A very common example can be the service offered in air flights. Stewards and air hostesses will offer service to the passengers such as if they need blanket, or a spare pillow. The customer feels valued. When these expectations are met , the customer feels satisfaction.
