RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

.SAMPLE SIZE - Interview 100 persons and collected data through questionnaire. SAMPLE LOCATION Delhi and NCR. RESEARCH TYPE: EXPLORATIVE AND DESCRIPTIVE DATA COLLECTION Data sources: There are two types of data. They are: Primary Data: Those which are collected by the interface with the people and thus happen to be the original in character. These are through interviews and questionnaires filled by them. Secondary Data: Those which have been collected by someone else and which have been already been passed through the statistical process and thus are available on internet sites any other media for that matter. Both kinds of data are used in making this project a success.

LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY

Compare the Market potential of New Delhi: the sample size of 100 target audience is relatively small. This doesnt represent the true universe. A population census couldnt be done which perhaps gives approx. Zero deviations errors from the actual. Most of the targeted audience was not aware about various brand names. Some targeted audience was not friendly and some didnt have adequate knowledge about the products so offered.

HISTORY

Action group endorses the principles of social responsibility and recognizes our responsibility to the environment and the community in which we operate. These principles are central to the values of Action group and guide our business activities. At Action group we constantly strive to be the best and responsible corporate citizen and extend support to various social organizations. We are able to reach out to a diverse range of families and communities, and we do it in many different ways. The Action group runs "Lala Muni Lal Mange Charitable Trust" since 1977. Today it is engaged in various kinds of charitable activities. It is running an 80 - bedded hospital at Hissar (Haryana). This hospital has been working since 1979. It also started a day care OPD in 1984 at Daya Basti, Delhi. To cater to the needs of pilgrims at Vrindavan, the trust built an Ashram in 1994. This Ashram has large accommodation and a beautiful temple. This Ashram is a boon for the widows living in different parts of Vrindavan. Over 700 widows gather in this Ashram daily. They participate in the Bhajan organized by the Ashram daily and get the ration and other required goods of their daily use. Many a times Lala Mange Ram, who is the chairperson of this trust himself joins this Bhajan Samaroh and gives them moral support. Now Lala Mange Ram has opened Sri Balaji Action Medical Institute in Delhi. Spread over 6 acres of land and 400 bedded hospital (out of which 100 beds are ICU beds), mission of this trust is to set up an institute for providing world-class integrated healthcare facilities to all sections of the society with a humanitarian touch.

MARKETING PHILOSOPHY

The Action marketing philosophy emphasizes catering to the masses, consistently meeting the need and aspirations of every evolving generation. Action is committed to producing the high quality shoes to suit every walk of life. Based on our cultivated understanding of the Indian consumer psyche, most Action offerings are in the mid - range price segments. However, Action also manufactures variety of premium products for those who refuse to compromise, who seek and strive beyond ordinary.

MARKET POSITIONING Action has consistently used "COMPLETE FAMILY FOOTWEAR" positioning and continues to use it. The company virtually makes shoes for the entire family- more precisely-for everyone- for all occasions.

DISTRIBUTION NETWORK To complement our philosophy of catering to every walk of life, our powerful distribution network is mushroomed far and wide. Action has established a wide marketing network for distributing its products in India. The extensive distribution network, built over the years, is a major strength for Action products. Action products are available to consumers, even in the most remote places and in the smallest of villages with a very meagre population. The distribution network comprising of DISTRIBUTORS, WHOLESALERS, RETAILERS AND EBO's throughout the country, ensures that the customer wherever located is served efficiently. We have a network of more than 50,000 retail outlets all over India to sell our footwear, which is being sold through more than 500 distributors appointed by the company.

At Action group we constantly strive to create, maintain, protect and enhance the brands. Our challenge is to develop a deep set of positive associations for the brand. Our objective is not only to have a fairly high degree of......... BRAND AWARENESS, but to move to ACCEPTABILITY PREFERENCE Finally, BRAND LOYALTY In order to achieve all these stages and to achieve higher attention & recall, Action group often uses celebrities as spokespeople or endorsers. Our brand have been associated with the world known celebrities like KAPIL DEV, SACHIN TENDULKAR and so on is the list of different celebrities of different fields including Indian Cinema like AJAY JADEJA, AMRISH PURI, APOORVA AGNIHOTRI, AMAN TALWAR, RENUKA, PALLAVI JOSHI etc.

The building blocks of the corporate resource allocation strategies: Action group is committed to growth. To ensure that the growth is maintained along with a competitive edge, Action group has moved vertically as well. Action group implemented a backward integration strategy by entering into chemicals and plasticizers business. CHEMICAL AND PLASTISIZERS: We have our plant located at Daman for the manufacturing of PVC compound, DOP, DBP, DOA, and DIDP etc. under the brand name API providing employment opportunities in backward areas of India. This ensures the availability and quality of supplies and helps to control the cost and improve overall profits as well. The group has also implemented forward integration strategy by opening ACTION EXCLUSIVE STORES all over India with the ultimate objective to realize additional profit potential.
