Problem or Opportunity Identification
• First step
• Problem, opportunity, identification
• Discovery before definition
• Problem means management problem
Step 2 Decision maker and business researcher meeting to
discuss the problem and opportunity dimensions
• The researcher can only suggest solution to a problem but the actual
decision is taken by the decision maker
Step 3: Defining the management problem and subsequently. the
research problem

• Hypotheses 1: "Brand image" has a significant liner impact on the buying
intention.
• Hypothesis 2: "Brand awareness" has a significant liner impact on the buying
• Hypothesis 3: "Price" has a significant liner impact on the buying intention.
Hypothesis 4: "Availability" has a significant liner impact on the buying intention.
Hypothesis 5: "After-sales services" has a significant liner impact on the buying
• Definitely, these hypotheses will be statistically tested through a simple regression
model in which each of these will be considered as the independent variable and
the buying intention will be considered as the dependent variable.
• H0 Brand Image has no significant impact on BI
• NULL ZERO
• ALTERNATE H1
• The researcher can also test the combined impact of these five
variables on the buying intention. The proposed multiple regression
model will be Buying intention = b + b, (Brand Image (BI)) + b₂
(Brand Awareness (BA)) + b₂ (price) + b, (availability) + b, (after-
sales).
• The corresponding hypothesis may be constructed as follows:
• Hypothesis 6: All the five factors in combination have a significant
linear impact on the buying intention.
