targeted employed, businessman,
students of college universities. We
provide online Google forms to the
respective participants and attained
their point of view in this way
Instrument of data collection The information gathered in the study
with the help of questionnaire. The main
focus is on the questionnaire. The
questionnaires emphasized on Likert
scale item. In the questionnaire, there is a
5-point Likert scale-like (1) strongly
disagrees, (2) disagree, (3) neutral, (4)
agree, and (5) strongly agree and the
variables that are word of mouth,
advertisement, packaging and feedback
(Sekaran and Bougie, 2016, page 215).
Procedure of data Our questionnaire consists of closed ended
collection questionnaire which targets all the variables,
dependent and independent both. The dependent
variable in our research is consumer satisfaction
and independent variables are word of mouth,
advertisement, packaging and feedback. There are
total 5 variables in it and each variable consist of 5
questions. The total number of questions is 25.
Questionnaires were collected on the spot. The
questionnaire was prepared on Google forms
(Sekaran and Bougie, 2016, page 146).

Result and finding

Findings and Interpretation of The results of the questionnaire were


the Result obtained by collecting and running the
data on SPSS to get meaningful
information to interpret. The three
variables were checked in pairs first
through linear regression and then
collectively all the three were used to
assess the results. The whole process
used Structural Equation Modelling i.e.,
multiple regression
Reliability of Word of Mouth: The value of Cronbach’s Alpha is
62.6% which is greater than a
threshold of 0.6, it shows that the data
is reliable.
