Additional analysis
Paired sample t- tests was carried out between Dettol and Savlon on following parameters
Trust
Protection
Price
Availability
Need satisfaction
Paired T- test Results The p-values of the variables trust, protection and pricing
are greater than the significance level of 0.05
Hence, there is no significant difference between Dettol and Savlon in respect of trust, protection and pricing.
The p-values of the variables needs and availability are less than 0.05, implying that there is a significant difference between Dettol and Savlon in these aspects
A new dummy brand “Ayurcare” was introduced to the survey takers at the same price points with similar product characteristics and survey takers were now asked to rate following attributes between Dettol, Savlon and Ayurcare
Which brand they would choose while shopping for an antiseptic?
Was the price of the product fair? Did the product satisfied their needs? Overall perception of the brand?
Introduction of Dummy Brand
Analysis We did a paired sample t- test between the responses for two
brands, Savlon and Ayurcare, with respect to the main brand – Dettol
There is a significant difference between the mean scores of the variable ‘brand chosen’ with most people preferring Dettol followed by Savlon.
Dettol is also perceived to be the most fairly priced, since the mean scores are significantly different.
Overall preference is maximum for Dettol followed by Savlon. The p-values of overall preference is less than 0.05, and hence, it is significantly different from the mean scores of each other
CONCLUSION Dettol is available more widely than its competitor.
Savlon and Dettol are perceived to be same on price points and enjoy same trust factor
Even after introducing AYURCARE Dettol remained most preferred brand followed by Savlon
We reject our null hypothesis that brand loyalty of Dettol is only a function of its availability it scores highest on all tested parameters- A mark of a truly cult brand.
