SUGGESTION:-
1.Price:
Almost all the consumers complain that the prices of woodland shoes
are very high not reaching the mark of customer’s expectation. So, the price
should reduced so as to increase the sales and profit of the company.
2.Quality:
Although the footwear of woodland shoes is generally ranked high as
to their quality, it is necessary to maintain and even improve the quality of
the product.
3.Design:
Though consumers are satisfied with the durability of the product
they need more designed and colours. There should be increase in tech
verities of the products so that a good number of customers are attached both
male and female. Because majority of the population in the region is
relatively young and are in the high consumption stages of life.
4.Advertisement:
Though advertisement is the only media through which majority of
the customers became aware of the product but from the survey it was found
out that advertisement is not sok effective and informative and also it doesn’t
reach more number of people. So, more and more advertisement must be
given in television by increasing the frequency of advertisement and the
colour advertisement should be used for newspapers so that the customers
will be aware of all the products, which exist in the market, and the new
product, which will be produced by the company.
Almost all of the respondents are satisfied with the services rendered
by the dealers.

services to meet the needs and taste of consumer demands.
2.Periodical survey of market from the company is necessary to know the
changes in.
3.Attitudes of consumers and reason for dissatisfaction if any.
