The students at Aakash find the doubt clearing sessions quite helpful. During doubt clearing
hours, students can ask any doubt on any topic from the respective subject teachers.
Aakash Assignments give Aakashians a remarkable edge over others. The students are
supposed to try the set of problems given at the end of every topic on their own without the
support of the teachers. This happens on a routine basis. Aakash Assignments ensure that the
students concentrate on two of the most important factors necessary to crack the toughest
exams that are subject knowledge and regular practice of the subject with a clear-cut
objective of time management and minimizing errors as the studies progress. Our
assignments are well known for improving concepts, reducing errors, enhancing
concentration, boosting test scores, and above all ensuring selection in the Entrance Exams.

winner. Our Honorable Chairman, Mr. J.C. Chaudhry himself conducts such sessions and
makes sure that each student gets motivated to face competitive Exams confidently.

Parent-Teacher Meetings
Parent-Teacher Meeting (PTM) in Aakash is an integral part of our education delivery and
feedback system. We frequently invite parents to meet with their ward’s respective teachers
to understand their performance closely. This is also an opportunity for Aakash to get in
touch with the parents and motivate them to help Aakash and its students achieve the
common goal of qualifying in Entrance exam selection. Another important advantage is that
parents can directly meet the teachers and know about the weak areas of their child.

coaching students for Medical and Engineering Exams. Aakash follows proper work ethics
and has a positive environment where an individual can learn and grow. Aakash has

OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
As a company that focuses on technology for education, you understand that there are no grade
levels where a teacher goes in without a plan. Marketing is no different. In today’s world, the
number of marketing tactics is countless and not all these tactics will work for your business,
especially in education technology. No matter what type of product you are providing as a
service, you will always need a strategy in place. If you were to go into battle without a strategy
in place, what do you think will happen? Marketing professionals need to understand their
audience before marketing efforts are initiated so that they are successful in achieving their
goals in attaining quality leads. You want to be able to make a strategy that caters to your
audiences wants and needs so that you can secure your customer properly.
As I worked on the AESL I came to know that this is even excellent company but there is
problem in selling strategy adopted by the salesperson and Some customer are not satisfy by
the product and services mostly illiterate parents are not able to understand the Aakash’s
product and main problem is salesperson make them understand as salesperson want and they
focus on the completing the target what they were assigned. Aakash’s must think about it and
there should be some relief to the salesperson so that they can do work in proper way and also
some help for the illiterate parents so that they can understand to the Aakash’s and its benefits

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Market research can be split into two distinct sections: primary and secondary.
They can also be known as field and desk, respectively (although this terminology feels out
of date as plenty of primary research can be carried out from your desk).
Primary market research is research you carry out yourself. This could include running your
own focus groups or conducting surveys. The ‘field’ part referring to going out into the field
to get data.
Secondary market research is research carried out by other people that you want to use. This
could include studies carried out by researchers or financial data released by companies.
The methods in this list cover both areas. Which ones you want to use will depend on your
Focus groups
A simple concept but one that can be hard to put into practice.
You get a bunch of people into a room, record them, and ask them about whatever you want.

A focus group’s strength is in the natural conversation and discussion that can take place
In comparison to a questionnaire or survey that have a rigid set of questions, a focus group
can go off on tangents the organizer could not have predicted (and therefore not planned
questions for). This can be good in that unexpected topics can arise, or bad if the aims of the

Marketing strategy
We advertise our brand and services through different media including print, radio, television
advertisements, social media, search engines and other outdoor media. We also market
through various promotional materials such as handbills, flyers and brochures. Further, we
conduct seminars for parents and students to enhance our brand awareness and introduce
them to the features of our services. With growth & success comes not only huge
responsibility but also immense pressure to sustain the brand name. We assure media,
parents, our associates and partners that we will always aim to have a true and authentic
approach. Any feedback that could improve our Education Delivery System is taken in a
positive spirit.
Every year brings forth positive and encouraging news for us. We think that we are not only
praised by media for our result oriented approach & for continued achievements but also for
our contribution to the society. From time to time, we undertake various marketing and
advertising campaigns to increase our brand awareness. We attract a majority of our students
via the ACST, the ANTHE and the NEST. We provide scholarships for qualifying students
Media plays an important role in the recognition of any organization. Since our inception, we
believe the media has talked about our efforts in improving our Education System, especially
at the Competitive and school levels. Our brand is widely known in the Education Field in
India. We believe that the quality of our educational content and the effectiveness of our
teaching methodologies, as evidenced by the number of selections of our students, have made
us one of the top choices for students intending to qualify for Undergraduate Medical and
Engineering Courses.

One strategy that has been present throughout the history of marketing is outbound
marketing. This style of marketing takes the forms of ads for television, phone calls, print,
and radio, as well as other forms for reaching out to your audience. You are basically fishing
in a lake of consumers in hopes you will attain a few quality leads. The issue with Outbound
is that not everyone is interested in what you have to offer, so that fish in the lake might not
be hungry. In reality, this might work for some businesses that stand out from the rest, but in
the Education Technology industry, one should consider Outbound marketing continuously
That other marketing approach is called inbound marketing! Inbounds approach to marketing
is right up any Education Technology’s industry because you are providing, relevant, useful
information that your consumer/readers see as a value. You are educating your audience on
solutions that can help their need or want, outlining how your service comes in to save the
day. When utilizing this method, you will help attract website visitors, organically. You are
able to convert those visitors into quality leads, followed by closing those leads into paying
customers. After they become a paying customer, your final job is to secure your customer
retention rates by delighting your customers so they can speak highly of you to their
colleagues. Providing quality content to you and smartest approach to marketing. Why?
Aside from what we just went over, you are addressing the needs of the consumer. You
understand what your ideal buy rs are going through and how you can help them. You want
your customer’s happy, right? Educating’s focusing on in bound efforts, you are literally
helping and below are the 4 critical phases of developing a Content & Inbound Strategy to

Marketing Funnels
A marketing funnel is basically a sequence of steps that a prospect takes from the time they
first hear about your business to the time they decide to become paying customers. Establishing
a marketing funnel sequence is one of the most valuable things you can do to boost your
conversion rates. At a basic level, marketing funnels consist of three phases Awareness,
interest, evaluation, and decision.
Awareness
At the top of the funnel we have the awareness stage. This is the stage at which customers
become aware of your product or business. Top of the funnel marketing materials could include
content marketing, inbound marketing, referrals, events, SEO, SEM, paid advertising, and
more. Marketing at this stage of the funnel is aimed at reaching the largest number of potential
customers as possible.
Interest
Next, you have the interest stage, where you get customers who have moved on from the
awareness phase and are now interested in your product. Marketing materials at this stage
would be more educational — consisting of webinars, e-books, e-mail marketing campaigns,
white papers, case studies, etc.
50
Evaluation
After customers have become aware of your product and are definitely interested, they start
evaluating it against competitors. Marketing materials at this stage might be demo videos and
samples.
Decision
Finally, it comes time to actually make the decision to buy. At this commitment stage,
marketing materials can include product demos, free trials or sales calls.
51
Increasing numbers of students are shifting towards a hybrid mode of learning.
When it comes to EdTech, think from the perspective of a parent. They are not that
comfortable in sending their children to institutes which are beyond a particular radius of
their home. Which is why there is an increase in the market to move to hybrid learning.
In small cities, there is a lack of large players who can coach people or students for JEE
preparation. In far-front cities of India, Students also aspire to become engineers and doctors,
but they don’t have the right medium. This is where the Edtech solution of Akash by BYJU’S
comes into play and ensures to offer products to tier three, tier four, and tier five markets.
52
In the past year, many offline services have become available online. For example, students
can get help from teachers without having to wait for a class to start.
The Akash app was launched after the acquisition of its digital business by BYJU’S. The app
has since amassed over 10 million downloads and has a 4.1 rating on the app store. The app
provides a platform for students to connect with teachers and get their doubts clarified
