Business level strategy
Marketing: Being a multinational company RAK has strong brand equity. It has segmented their
customer accurately. But what it lacks is strong marketing. To connect with their customers they need to
produce emotional advertisement. Now a day’s people don’t watch much television. They spend most of
their times in face book and other online sites. RAK ceramics should move from their traditional
advertisement to online advertisement. They can sponsor events, different shows. In this way they can
gather most attention from their customers.
Research and Development: Everyday peoples taste, products are changing due to continuous
innovation and technological advancement. To survive in the market research and development team
should work side by side with marketing team. Because market research is a must to know about
customers need. They should continuously work on producing unique and new products to attract more
customers.
Human Resource Management: It is the employee who runs the organization. So to become a
successful organization it is very important to have best and efficient employees. Despite of RAK being a
multinational company the employees are not satisfied there. Their salary is not sufficient. There exists
favouritism and partiality. They don’t provide transport facilities. Their middle management is not caring
and friendly. The top management should take necessary steps to satisfy their employees and to stop
this inequality. They should organize open discussion sessions with their employees about their
surroundings, work experience and about their problems.
E-Commerce: In this era, internet plays a vital and most important role in almost
every business. We can get food, clothes, and daily necessities from online sites.
To survive in this era by doing business it is a must to have a proper online site.
They don’t have any proper online appearance. They have an app called RAK
ceramics Bangladesh but it is not in proper function. Because of this RAK is
losing their online customer base, which is not good for their future. So IT
department should work with the changing business environment to make their
customer base stronger, both online and offline.
Supply Chain Management: RAK ceramics don’t have their own supply chain
management. In order to distribute their products they have to depend on the local
authorized dealers. They should have shops in every cities of Bangladesh and
they should also build their own supply chain management. Because by relying
on the dealers they are losing their market coverage and they are also losing their
control.
