1.1 INTRODUCTION

Branding is a process which involves creating a specific name, logo, and an image of a particular product,
service or company. This is done to attract customers. It is usually done through advertising with a consistent
theme.

Branding aims to establish a significant and differentiated presence in the market that attracts and retains loyal
customers. A brand is a name, term, symbol, or other feature that distinguishes an organization or product from
its rivals in the eyes of the customer. Brands are used in business, marketing, and advertising.

Features of Branding

Targetability
Branding should be planned according to the targeted audience. No business firm can target the entire
population. Business owners should identify the type of people who are buying their products and services.
Research should be done on the basis of age, gender, income, the lifestyle of their customers, etc.

Awareness
The percentage of people who are aware of a brand is known as brand awareness. Well established companies
have the benefit of a high level of brand awareness. Brand awareness can be increased with the help of
advertisement on TV, radio, newspaper or social media marketing and advertising. Logos also help companies
build brand awareness, as people often recognize brands by these symbols or diagrams.

Loyalty
Brand loyalty is the highest achievement or apex of any company. A customer who buys the product of a
particular company extensively is known as a brand loyalist. Many consumers prefer using certain brands of
clothing, deodorants or tubes of toothpaste, for example. They like how these brands benefit them. Brand loyalty
can be build by staying in touch with the customers, asking them for their reviews.

Consistency
Consistency is necessary for a brand. A brand must remain consistent. Small businesses make numerous
promises in commercials and ads about their brands, and consumers expect companies to continue living up to
these promises. Their products should also be effective
The definition of “brand” seems obvious at first, but surprisingly it can be misunderstood. Does brand just
refer to a company’s logo, its colors, and its name? Or, is a brand defined as the overall identity of a company
and its perception in the market? The paradox is that every marketer knows that their brand should be at the
core of their company, however, many can’t clearly define what a “brand” is. Before diving into brand
marketing, let’s clarify exactly what determines a brand.

Brand marketing promotes your products or services in a way that highlights your overall brand. The goal of
brand marketing is to link your identity, values, and personality with effective personalized brand
communication to your audience. Essentially, your brand is the bridge between your product and your
customer. Brand marketing is not just about putting your logo and business name as many places as possible
and expecting to generate sales. Many times, the importance of brand marketing gets overlooked, as it takes
time. Many marketing departments are focused on short-term goals, rather than nurturing long-term goals that
impact the entire business, like building a brand.

Customer service is the provision of services to customers before, during and after a
purchase. According to Turban “Customer service is a series of activities designed to enhance
the level of customer satisfaction – that is, the feeling that a product or service has met the
customer expectation."
A multi-task position drawing on extensive CUSTOMER SERVICE experience to
advance a proven track record for developing and maintaining key accounts and improving
departmental efficiencies.
Principles of Brand Management:

The principles of brand management are important to understand before moving


forward in the process. Now that you know how brand management works, next
are the key principles to get it to work.

Brand management principles to consider include:

Brand Equity

Your brand’s reputation is key. You want customers to trust the brand, so they’ll buy more or recommend it
to a friend. Your brand name should be recognized in a positive manner, drawing people in.

Brand Loyalty

Brand loyalty is similar to brand equity when customers buy your product solely out of loyalty to you. This
helps with word-of-mouth advertising and reputation to keep folks coming back.

Brand Recognition

Brand recognition can be self-explanatory but is still a key factor for the success of your business. You want
your brand to be recognized by more and more people in a positive light to attract more business. They won’t
even have to know your brand name and can still recognize your pre.

Brand Management Strategies o More, Be Unique

Do you have a unique, eye-catching angle on what it is you’re selling? What sets your product apart from the
competition? Why should people want to buy your product?

Focus on your why. Remember why you loved your brand in the first place, and whatever that feeling is, use
it to help with your branding.

Evaluate
Do you have an evaluation plan? Evaluate what performs well and what doesn’t. Be prepared to do this again
and again over the lifespan of your business.

When something works, do more of it. If something doesn’t, reevaluate how you can make it better. The key
to branding is to continue evolving.

Digital Marketing

Digital Marketing is the key to the future. There are so many things to consider when starting a brand and
having a digital marketing component is one of them. From amazing visuals to social media strategy, digital
marketing covers it all.

It may be worth it to invest in a graphic designer and social media manager. Humans (and especially those
who shop) are inherently visual, so having a great design is imperative for good branding.

Likewise, with digital marketing, everything is online these days. This is where your brand messaging will
come to play as well, as you can really highlight what you want your brand to say and be. If your business is
not online, you’re virtually invisible.
Brand Management Benefits:

Now that you have an idea of what brand management is and why it’s important, here are some of
the benefits you can expect to see:

 Grows business

 Cultivates customer loyalty

 Creates brand awareness and recognition

 Increases pricing and value of product

 Grows sales through loyal customers

Why wouldn’t you want to incorporate brand management into your business strategy? Branding is what
makes or breaks a lot of products and services.

If you want to become a household name, there are many benefits to doing so through brand management.

Example of brand management :

Brand management is managing the customer's perception of a product or service. Some examples of brand
management are:

 Advertising

 Marketing

 Corporate identity

 Product design

 Customer support

 Public relations

Brand management is essential for any business wanting to increase profits or attain a leading position in its
industry. There are many ways to manage brands, including advertising and public relations activities.

The following are examples of how companies use brand management:


 A company may collaborate with another company with a similar product to get more customers.

 A company may create its social media account so it can post pictures and videos about its
products without having to worry about copyright infringement or other legal issues.

 A company may want to change its logo or slogan to make it seem more current or appealing to
specific demographics.

1.2 INDUSTRY PROFILE


Nissan Motor Co Ltd (Nissan) is an automobile manufacturer. It carries out the design,
production and sale of automobile products. The company’s product portfolio includes sedans,
compact cars, SUVs, sports cars, mini vans, kei cars, light commercial vehicles, and related
parts. The company offers automobiles under the brand names of Nissan, Infiniti, Datsun, Nissan
Crossing, Nissan Heritage and Motorsports, among others. Nissan also provides credit card and
leasing services, non-life insurance and auto financing services. The company markets its
products and services through a network of retail outlets in Asia Pacific, Europe, the Middle
East, Africa and the Americas. Nissan is headquartered in Yokohama-shi, Kanagawa-ku, Japan.

As part of the new framework, the partners also seek enhanced strategic agility
with new initiatives that all three entities can join.

Besides, the board envisions a rebalanced Renault Group-Nissan


cross-shareholding and reinforced alliance governance.
Since 1999, Nissan has been part of the Renault–Nissan–Mitsubishi Alliance (Mitsubishi joining in 2016), a
partnership between Nissan and Mitsubishi Motors of Japan, with Renault of France. Renault holds a 43.4%
voting stake in Nissan, while Nissan holds a 15% non-voting stake in Renault. Following an agreement in
January 2023, Renault is set to reduce its voting stake to 15%, making both manufacturers equal in voting
rights.[6] Since October 2016 Nissan holds a 34% controlling stake in Mitsubishi Motors.[7]

In 2017, Nissan was the sixth largest automaker in the world, after Toyota, Volkswagen Group, Hyundai
Motor Group, General Motors and Ford.[8] In 2014, Nissan was the largest car manufacturer in North
America.[9] With a revenue of $75 billion in 2022, Nissan was the 9th largest automobile maker in the world,
as well as being the leading Japanese brand in China, Russia and Mexico. [10] As of April 2018, Nissan was the
world's largest electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer, with global sales of more than 320,000 all-electric
vehicles.[11] The top-selling vehicle of the car-maker's fully-electric lineup is the Nissan LEAF, the No. 2 top-
selling electric car globally
It was renamed to Kaishinsha Motorcar Co., Ltd. in 1918, and again to DAT Jidosha & Co., Ltd. (DAT
Motorcar Co.) in 1925. DAT Motors built trucks in addition to the DAT and Datsun passenger cars. The vast
majority of its output were trucks, due to an almost non-existent consumer market for passenger cars at the
time, and disaster recovery efforts as a result of the 1923 Great Kantō earthquake. Beginning in 1918, the
first DAT trucks were produced for the military market. At the same time, Jitsuyo Jidosha Co., Ltd. (jitsuyo
means practical use or utility) produced small trucks using parts, and materials imported from the United
States.[13][better source needed]

Commercial operations were placed on hold during Japan's participation in World War I, and the company
contributed to the war effort.

In 1926, the Tokyo-based DAT Motors merged with the Osaka-based Jitsuyo Jidosha Co., Ltd (Jitsuyō
Jidōsha Seizō Kabushiki-Gaisha) a.k.a. Jitsuyo Jidosha Seizo (established 1919 as a Kubota subsidiary) to
become DAT Jidosha Seizo Co., Ltd Automobile Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (ダット自動車製造株式会
社, DAT Jidōsha Seizō Kabushiki-Gaisha) in Osaka until 1932. From 1923 to 1925, the company produced
light cars and trucks under the name of Lila.[14] In 1929, DAT Automobile Manufacturing Inc. merged with a
separated part of the manufacturing business of IHI Corporation to become Automobile Industries Co., Ltd.

Nissan Motor organized in 1934


n 1934, Aikawa separated the expanded automobile parts division of Tobata Casting and incorporated it as a
new subsidiary, which he named Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. (日産自動車, Nissan Jidōsha).[20] The shareholders
of the new company; however, were not enthusiastic about the prospects of the automobile in Japan, so
Aikawa bought out all the Tobata Casting shareholders (using capital from Nihon Industries) in June 1934.
At this time, Nissan Motor effectively became owned by Nihon Sangyo and Hitachi.[21]

In 1935, the construction of its Yokohama plant was completed. 44 Datsuns were shipped to Asia, Central
and South America. In 1935, the first car manufactured by an integrated assembly system rolled off the line at
the Yokohama plant.[13] Nissan built trucks, airplanes, and engines for the Imperial Japanese Army. In
November 1937 Nissan moved its headquarters to Hsinking, the capital of Manchukuo. In December the
company changed its name to Manchuria Heavy Industries Developing Co (MHID).[22][23]

In 1940, the first knockdown kits were shipped to Dowa Jidosha Kogyo (Dowa Automobile), one of MHID's
companies, for assembly.[13] In 1944, the head office was moved to Nihonbashi, Tokyo, and the company
name was changed to Nissan Heavy Industries, Ltd., which the company kept through 1949.[13]

Nissan's early American connection


DAT had inherited Kubota's chief designer, American engineer William R. Gorham. This, along with
Aikawa's 1908 visit to Detroit, was to greatly affect Nissan's future.[13][24] Although it had always been
Aikawa's intention to use cutting-edge auto making technology from America, it was Gorham that carried out
the plan. Most of the machinery and processes originally came from the United States. When Nissan started
to assemble larger vehicles under the "Nissan" brand in 1937, much of the design plans and plant facilities
were supplied by the Graham-Paige Company.[20] Nissan also had a Graham license under which passenger
cars, buses, and trucks were made.[24]
In his 1986 book The Reckoning, David Halberstam states "In terms of technology, Gorham was the founder
of the Nissan Motor Company" and that "young Nissan engineers who had never met him spoke of him as a
god and could describe in detail his years at the company and his many inventions

1.3 COMPANY PROFILE:


MELBOURNE, Australia (September 9, 2022) – Nissan Australia is set to launch an
innovative, industry-first Circular Economy project in Victoria, with the Nissan Casting
Australia Plant (NCAP) to use recycled LEAF batteries to power part of its production facility.

In an exciting window into the future for end-of-life electric vehicle batteries — and an
important step towards Nissan Australia’s goal of carbon neutrality — the NCAP Battery
Project, called Nissan Node, will see a new solar array installed at Nissan Casting Australia, as
well as new EV chargers.

In its most simplified form, the Nissan Node will include the installation of a new Battery
Energy Storage System made of nine repurposed Gen 1 Nissan LEAF batteries at the Nissan
Casting Australia Plant, which will be charged via the solar array.

It’s a true Circular Economy project, using end-of-life batteries from the Nissan LEAF – the
world’s first mass-market electric vehicle – and renewable energy to power part of the
production of components for Nissan’s global EV models, as well as help supply the new EV
chargers to recharge staff vehicles.
The project is estimated to reduce Nissan Casting Australia’s annual CO2 emissions by 259
tons, while saving 128 megawatts of energy every year.
This isn’t just a hugely exciting project, but an important step into the future for end-of-life
EV batteries,” says Nissan Casting Australia Managing Director, Peter Jones.

“As an early pioneer of the electric vehicle both globally and locally, we can also demonstrate
leadership in second-life battery initiatives. I’m proud that this solution is every bit as
innovative as the launch of the LEAF in Australia was more than 10 years ago.

“Already the Nissan LEAF comes with vehicle-to-grid technology from factory, which will
allow Australian EV owners to use their vehicle to power their homes, and could be used to
help stabilise the electricity grid, but commercial Circular Economy projects like this are a
viable, sustainable and innovative solution for end-of-life EV batteries, too.”

The Nissan LEAF has just been updated for the 2023 model year, with a new look and leading-
edge technology designed to broaden the popular electric vehicle’s appeal. Key style updates,
including wheels-up design changes, and new safety features appear across the two-model
range.

The continued global EV transition not only represents an exciting opportunity for drivers, but
it continues to be an opportunity for local manufacturing.

CHAPTER- II

REVIEW OF LITERATURE

BRAND MARKETING
P. Praba Devi and R. Sellappan 2009 from the research it refers that The
performance of the retailing sector for the past few years is outstanding and witnesses a
huge revamping exercise, significantly contributed by the growth of the organized
retailing. The retail environment today is changing more rapidly than ever before
(Dabholkar, 1996). It is characterized by intensifying competition from both domestic
and foreign companies, a spate of mergers and acquisition, and more sophisticated and
demanding customers who have great expectations related to their consumption
experiences (Sellers, 1990; Smith, 1989). There is a general agreement that a basic
retailing strategy for creating competitive advantage is the delivery of high service
quality (Berry, 1986; Hummel and Savitt, 1988; Reichheld and Sasser, 1990). Retail
literature suggests that store appearance is important to retail customers (Baker, Dhruv
and Parasuraman, 1994). It also suggest that the customer value the convenience of
shopping that physical aspects such as store layout offer (Gutman and
Alden,1985;Hummel and Savitt, 1988; Mazursky and Jacoby,1985; Oliver,1981)
Westbrook (1981) found that the availability of merchandise is also a measure of
reliability. Customers also value parking availability for retail shopping (Oliver, 1981).
Studies have also shown that the customers are sensitive to recognizing and solving the
customer problems. Service quality in retailing is different from any other product or
service environment (Finn and Lamb, 1991).
MEASURING RETAIL SERVICE QUALITY: EXAMINING APPLICABILITY
OF INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH PERSPECTIVES IN INDIA by DR. SubhashiniKaul
October 2005 from the research it refers that Service quality measures developed
internationally are often accepted as adequate in India. This study evaluates the Retail
Service Quality Scale (RSQS) developed in the U.S. and considered valid across a variety
of formats and cultural contexts. Confirmatory factor analysis of the component
structures using AMOS 4.0 indicates the RSQS dimensions are not valid in India. This
lowers the diagnostic ability of the scale for identifying areas requiring strategic focus.
This study argues for further research and extensive scale adaptation before scales
developed in other countries such as the RSQS are applied in the Indian context.

MEASURING RETAIL SERVICE QUALITY: A STUDY ON INDIAN


DEPARTMENTAL STORES by Dr.P.C.S.Rajaram & Mr.V.P.Sriram 2014 from the
research it refers that this present study mainly focused on service quality measurement
in departmental retail stores. A department store is retail concerns which focus in
fulfilling an extensive range of the individual and housing durable goods, product needs;
and offering the shopper a choice multiple products lines, at different price, in all product
groups. Based on the literature studies, limited service quality measurement studies with
regards to departmental stories available in India. Hypothesis for the present study
framed like finding the effects of RSQS service quality dimensions on stores customer
satisfaction. The present study conducted at three different metropolitan cities in South
India. Chennai, Madurai and Coimbatore are the research area. 300 respondents are
selected using judgmental sampling method. . Researcher has used modified version of
RSQS (27 items) to measure the stores service quality. Present study result concludes that
that service quality dimension directly affects the customer satisfaction.
ANALYTICAL STUDY ON RETAIL SERVICE QUALITY OF ORGANIZED
RETAIL SECTOR IN TRICHY by C. Thirumal Azhagan Dr. P. S. Nagarajan July – Dec
2011 from the research it refers that Customer service assumes vital importance in the
marketing programs of all modern organizations, specifically service organizations. The retail
sector comes under service industry and the main focus is on the efficient and effective delivery
of services to the customers. The most important factors in the retail sectors are, quality of the
product delivered and customer satisfaction. The best way of surviving and prospering in the
competitive environment is through providing prompt, relevant and efficient customer services at

measurable cost with comfortable environment.

A CHRONOLOGICAL STUDY OF SERVICE QUALITY RESEARCH ON


RETAIL SECTOR By Sanjeev Kr. Singh from the research it refers that Researchers and
academician in the area of services around the world have been using various tools and
techniques to measure service quality, as a result have been successful in developing scales like
SERVQUAL, SERPERF, SERVCON, RSQS etc. These scales are extensively used for
measuring service quality in different service sectors in different geographical locations. It has
been observed that the applicability of these scales has many limitations or is to be used with
appropriate modifications in each circumstances depending on the type of services for which it is
to be used. This paper is thus an attempt to bring together all such research instruments, scales,
tools & techniques, so as to help future researchers in comparing the same and selecting the one
which is more close to their usage. The paper also tries to summaries the dimensions and
attributes used by authors for different service businesses. The methodology used is simple
comparison method between various studies conducted on service quality issue, using published
research papers from different sources like online databases example- Ebsco & Emerald, and
physical journals from libraries. This paper is unique as it is for the first time such
comprehensive study is done on service quality measurement.

1.5.1 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY


The research methodology deals with various aspects of research, it talks about the types
of research to be used, the research plans, how data can be collected either by primary or
secondary sources. It also plans what type of questionnaire to be followed and what ranking
scales to be used. The research decides about the sample frame (size), research boundary and the
various statistical tools to be used in data analysis and interpretation.

RESEARCH DESIGN
A Research design is purely and simply the framework or plan for the study that guides
the collection of the data. It is used to fulfill the research objective and answering questions. “A
research design is the arrangement of conditions for collection and analysis of data in a matter
that aims to combine relevance to the research purpose with economy in procedure”.

DESCRIPTIVE RESEARCH DESIGN


Research design followed in this study is descriptive study. Descriptive research, also
known as statistical research, describes data and characteristics about the population being
studied. Descriptive research answer the question who, what, where, when and how. Descriptive
study is undertaken to ascertain and be able to describe the characteristics of the variables of
interest in a situation. Quite frequently, describe studies are undertaken in organizations to learn
about and describe the characteristic of a group of employees.

RESEARCH PROBLEM
A research problem in general refers to some difficulty which a researcher experience in
the context of both a theoretical (or) practical situation and wants to obtain a solution. A research
problem is one which requires a researcher to find out the best solution for the given problem i.e.
to find out by which course of action the objective can be attained optionally in the context of a
given environment. There are several factors which may result in making the problem
complicated.

1.5.5 DATA ANALYSIS


STATISTICAL TOOL USED

To analyze and interrupt collected data the following statistical tools were used.
a. Weighted Average
b. T Test
c. ANNOVA
d. Percentage method

A. WEIGHTED AVERAGE METHOD


A ranking is a relationship between a set of items such that, for any two items, the first is
either „ranked higher than‟, „ranked lower than‟ or „ranked equal to‟ the second. In
mathematics, this is known as a weak order or total preorder of objects. It is not necessarily a
total order of objects because two different objects can have the same ranking. The rankings
themselves are totally ordered. By reducing detailed measures to a sequence of ordinal numbers,
rankings make it possible to evaluate complex information according to certain criteria.

R= ΣWXn

ΣXn
B. T Test
The independent samples t-test is used when two separate sets of independent and
identically distributed samples are obtained, one from each of the two populations being
compared. Where the satisfaction was related with the locality, gender and the marital status.
T-tests are used when you have two groups (e.g. males and females) or two sets of data
(before and after), and you wish to compare the mean score on some continuous variable.

𝑇 + (𝑁1 + 𝑁2 − 2)

C. ANOVA
This method was used to study the comparison between the satisfaction level with the
age group, qualification, occupation and the income which does not able to compare in the t-
test.
One-way analysis of variance is similar to a t-test, but is used when you have two or more
groups and you wish to compare their mean scores on a continuous variable. It is called one-
way because you are looking at the impact of only one independent variable on your dependent
variable.

E. PERCENTAGE METHOD:
In this project percentage method test was used. The percentage method is used to know
the accurate percentages of the data we took, it is easy to graph out through the percentages. The
following are the formula:
