FACTORS AFFECTING CUSTOMER SATISFACTION IN AUTOMOBILE


INDUSTRY:
 Quality of the product/service
 Uniqueness of the product
 Price of the product
 Delivery of the product at right time

1.2 NEED/IMPORTANCE OF THE STUDY


Customer satisfaction is the key to both customer retention and customer
acquisition. Satisfied customers will not only buy from you again, they also have the
potential to become loyal customers to the brand and share their great experiences
with others which leads in attracting more customers. This results in more revenue
for the company and achieve their ultimate goal by satisfying the customers.

The main ones can be increase in loyalty, increases bench marks for a company,
increase competitive advantage etc.

i) Increases Loyalty
As there are many number of the companies in the market, the customers has lots of
options to choose at his will. A company makes at most efforts to satisfy customers with
their product/service. All company work hard to gain new customers. The toughest part
of the companies is to make their new customer their loyal customer, companies believes
the concept “Higher the customer satisfaction higher the customer loyalty”. The company
ensures to reach the customer expectations, the companies believe that “When customer
expectations are met the customers becomes loyal”
ii) Increases feedback surveys
Feedback from customers play crucial role to improve the product or service. When the
customer isn’t satisfied with the product or service he/she tend to change the producer.

rectify the areas of concern

“Customer satisfaction at level of Anant cars”

“When customers share their story, they’re not just sharing pain points. They’re actually
teaching you how to make your product, service, and business better. Your customer
service organization should be designed to effectively communicate those issues.” –
Kristin Smaby, “Being Human is Good Business”.

iii) Improves pricing strategy


Revenue for a company is the basic motive in order to start up a business. Every
company tries to achieve higher revenue. Customer satisfaction is also based on the
prices for product/service offered. The customer measure the value of product/ service
offered. Customers determine the worth of the product according to price of the
product/service. Even though the product/service is up to mark, customers are dissatisfied
when it is charged more. In order to retain customers the company invests time to set up
the price which are customers are satisfied and the price yields the company better profits
as well.

Hence, even though earning profits is the motive the company is should set reasonable
prices in order to satisfy customers.

iv) Increases competitiveness


Each and every company tries to stand high amongst its competitors. One of the factors
that separate one company from others is satisfaction. The customers change their minds
at will, they prefer the product/service which gives them higher satisfaction. All the
company work hard to ensure that they satisfy customers. All the company wait for an
opportunity that their competitors mess up something and they make their way utilizing
their weakness.

v) Great Customer experience


The importance customer satisfaction never reduces even though the company grows
from strength to strength. The customer experience from the product/service reflects on
the company profits and brand value. The comments either negative or positive makes a
company grow from better to best.
Positive customer experience helps to analyze the strength of the company whereas;
negative customer feedback is a learning curve for the company.

1.3 Theoretical implications of the study :

CUSTOMER:

A party that receives or consumes products (goods/services) and has the ability to
choose among various brands and suppliers.
1.4 Recent trends
 The Internet of Things Sparks Innovation.

A hot topic across industries, the Internet of Things (IoT) will have a
significant impact on automotive and beyond. Connected devices are the next
major step as the industrial market revolutionizes, and automotive value chain
processes will be greatly affected by innovation in this area.

 Cloud Technology Speeds Growth.


The automotive industry is beginning to embrace the many advantages of
cloud technology. In 2018, a larger move-to-cloud is anticipated with many
factors influencing this trend, including the “Industry 4.0” transition.
 Advance analytics will inform products.
Industry experts predict that a heightened focus on analytics will
increasingly impact automotive. Emphasis on analytics will be the key to
streamlined, agile, and smart processes that promote innovation in the
sector.

Department of BBA Jan – April 2019 Page 11


“Customer satisfaction at level of Anant cars”

 Artificial intelligence shifts to a higher gear.


Artificial Intelligence (AI) embedded in robotic process automation (RPA) has
been prevalent in automotive manufacturing for years, but as AI evolves and
grows more intuitive, the industry will reap additional benefit.
The use of enhanced AI in assembly lines has streamlined vehicle
production, making the manufacturing process more productive, efficient,
and cost-effective. With its ever-improving cognitive abilities, AI will be able
to perform more complex tasks that require immense detail, speed, and
precision. This, in turn, will improve process quality.
Advanced AI will also be able to detect problems within manufacturing
systems. Analysis from AI-based quality reports can be used to discover the
root causes of defects and improve overall production processes, saving
manufacturers from potentially catastrophic events.
Quality assurance will be a major benefit of improved AI technology.
Currently, most quality inspections are performed by human workers; this is
a relatively slow process that is prone to errors. An AI based system will
constantly improve its analysis based on feedback, growing more intelligent
over time and offering the most accurate and efficient quality testing.

 Looking down the Road


2017 is sure to be an exciting year for automotive. These four trends will
accelerate an already transforming industry, putting forth new business
models, highly advanced product offerings and ground-breaking applications
of technology.
