INTRODUCTION
CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION & DESIGN OF THE STUDY

1.1 INTRODUCTION
A market-focused, or customer-focused, organization first determines what its potential
customer’s desire, and then builds the product or service. Marketing theory and practice is justified in
the belief that customers use a product/service because they have a need, or because a
product/service provides a perceived benefit.

Two major factors of marketing are the recruitment of new customer(acquisition) and the
retention and expansion of relationships with existing customers (base management).

Once a marketer has converted the prospective buyer, base management marketing take over.
The process for base management shifts the marketer to building a relationship, nurturing the links,
enhancing the benefits that sold the buyer in the first place, and improving the products/service
continuously to protect the business from competitive encroachments.

Marketing is the wide range of activities involved in making sure that you are continuing to
meet the needs of your customers and are getting value in return.

Marketing analysis includes finding out what groups of potential customers exist, what group
of customers you prefer to serve, what their needs are, what products or services you might develop
to meet their needs, how the customers might prefer to use the products and services, what your
competitors are doing, what pricing you should use and how you should distribute products and
services to your target market. Various methods of market research are used to find out information
about markets, target markets and their needs, competitors etc. Marketing also includes ongoing
promotions, which can include advertising, public relations, sales and customer service

1.2 DEFINITION OF THE MARKETING
Initially, marketing environment was largely described as seller market demand and was
invariably greater than supply. Most of our business enterprise are still having selling concept which
is product oriented. A change is taking place in the marketing environment at rapid speed and many
consumer oriented marketing companies beginning to realize the presence of competition and
marketing. In the modern marketing ‘consumer is the king’. So the producer’s fate is decided by the
action of the consumer. That is, by either buying the product or rejecting it. So a producer tries hard
to gain competitive efficiency over the other by adopting new technologies in production and cost
reduction measures.

Children are the most crucial resource of a country. These future citizen can contribute
substantially to the social and economic development of a country. But to achieve this one must pay
proper attention to the children. So this research is undertaken to know whether the proper attention
is given to the quality of goods and services provide to them

immenselynecessary for both products and dealers to see that competitive efficiency of products
is kept high. Producers have to act on production, pricing ,promotion and distribution according

HISTORY OF THE COMPANY

Robert Wood Johnson, inspired by a speech by antisepsis advocate Joseph Lister,joined


brothers James Wood Johnson and Edward Mead Johnson to create a line of ready-to -use
surgical dressings in 1885.The company produced its first products in 1886 and incorporated in
1887.

Robert Wood Johnson served as the first president of the company. He worked to improve
sanitary practices in the nineteenth century, and lent his name to a hospital in New Brunswick,
New Jersey. Upon his death in 1910, he was succeeded in the presidency by his brother James
Wood Johnson until 1932, and then by his son, Robert Wood Johnson II. Jamie Johnson, great-
grandson of the founder, made a documentary called Born Rich about the experience of growing
up as the heir to one of the world’s greatest fortunes.

Current members of the board of directors of Johnson & Johnson’s are:

Mary Sue Coleman,James G.Cullen, Dominic Caruso, Michael M.E. Johns, Ann Dibble
Jordan, Arnold G. Langbo, Susan L. Lindquist, Leo F. Mullin, William Perez, Steven S.
Reinemund, David Satcher, and Willian C. Weldon.

Sandi Peterson has served as Group Worldwide chairman since 2012.

On top of Alex Gorsky and Sandi Peterson, current members of Executive Committees of
Johnson & Johnson are:

Dominic Caruso, Peter Fasolo, Paul Stoffels, and Michael Sneed.

General Robert Wood Johnson’s, who guided Johnson from a small , family owned business
to a worldwide enterprise, had a very perceptive view of a corporation’s responsibilities beyond
the manufacturing and marketing of products.

As early as 1935, in a pamphlet titled TRY REALITY, he urged his fellow industrialists to
embrace what he termed ‘’a new industrial philosophy.’’ Johnson’s defined this as the
corporation’s responsibility to customers, employees, and the community and stock holder.

But it was not until eight year later, in 1943 that Johnson’s brought a first published the
Johnson and Johnson Credo, a one page document outlining this responsibilities in greater

9
details. Johnson’s saw to it that the Credo was embraced by his company, and he urged his
management to applied it as part of there every day business philosophy.

The Credo , seen by business leader and the media as being farsighted, received wide public
attention and acclaim. Putting costumer first and stockholder last, was a refreshing approach to
the management of business. But it should be noted that Johnson was a practical minded business
man. He believed that by putting the costumer first the business will be well served, and it was.

The Corporation has drown heavily on the strength of the Credo for guidance through the
years , and at no time was this more evident that during the TYLENOL crises of 1982 and 1986,
then the McNeil consumer & specialty Pharmaceuticals(now McNeil Consumer Health care )
product was adult created with cyanide. With Johnson and Johnson’s good name and reputation
at stake, company managers and employees made countless decisions that they are inspired by
the Credo philosophy. The company’s reputation was preserved and the TYLENOL
acetaminophen business was regained.

All money the Red Cross receives from the sale of these products to consumers is reinvested
in its humanitarian programs and services. “For a multi-billion dollar company to claim that the
Red Cross violated a criminal statute that was created to protect the humanitarian mission of the
Red Cross - simple so that J&J can make more money - is obscene,” said Mark Everson, the chief
executive of the charity.

JNJ statement “J&J has great respect for the relief work of ARC and over the decades has
consistently supported the organization through cash donations, product donationOver the year,
some of the language of the Credo has been updated and new areas recognizing the environment
and the balance between work and family have been added. But the spirit of the document
remains the same today as when it was first written.

When Robert Wood Johnson wrote and then institutionalized the Credo within Johnson &
Johnson, he never suggested perfection. But its principles have become a constant goal, as well as
inspiration, for all who are part of the Johnson & Johnson Family of Companies

More than 60 years after it was first introduced, the Credo continues to guide the destiny of
the world’s largest and most diversified health care company.

10
August of 2007, Johnson & Johnson filed a lawsuit against the American Red Cross (ARC),
demanding that the charity halt the use of the Red Cross symbol on products it sells to t\\ohe
public, although the company insists it has no issue with the charity’s use of the mark fornon-
profit purposes. The suit also asks for the destruction of all currently existing non-Johnson &
Johnson Red Cross Emblem bearing products and demands the American Red Cross pay punitive
damagesand J&J’s legal fees.

Since 2004, the Red Cross has worked with several licensing partners to create first aid,
preparedness and related products that bear the Red Cross ems and employee volunteering. ...
After more than a century of strong cooperation in the use of the Red Cross trademark, with both
organizationrespecting the legal boundaries for each other ‘unique legal rights, they theirs very
disappointed to find that the American Red Cross started a campaign to license the trademark ...
For the past several months, J&J has attempted to resolve this issue through cooperation and
discussion with the ARC, and recently offered mediation ,to no avail.”
