A Study on Effectiveness of Buzz Marketing Campaign and Its

Impact on Product Marketing

P. Megaladevi*, A. Karthikeyan School of Management Studies, Jay Shriram Group of Institutions, Avinashipalayam, Tirupur, Tamil Nadu,

India

Abstract

The observation on buzz advertising, a ramification of advertising field in its growth segment

is a field of hobby by maximum entrepreneurs round the sector. The item of this

communication is to contribute to the comprehension of the effectiveness of a buzz marketing

campaign, to determine its contribution to marketing and to research the relationship

between the emblem and the consumer. We additionally recommend a summary version to set

up an express and a right away connection between buzz advertising and the variables that

degree its effectiveness. We have a look at the moderating position of involvement on those

variables. The assessment of the literature of this gift studies demonstrates that the

effectiveness of buzz advertising will be analyzed through the principle gadgets pursued by

means of corporations usually are specified as: photo to the brand, awareness to the emblem

and buying selection.

Keywords: buzz advertising, buying choice, consciousness, involvement, photograph

INTRODUCTION

In latest years, the concept of marketing

has modified dramatically because of

complexity of the conduct of individual

clients. Kapferer et al. (1994) [56]

reported

that during a postmodern society, in which

mass advertising is more and more

criticized and in which individuals show

much less hobby in conventional

advertising, advertising has developed

alternatives to higher talk with its

communication goal and goal customer.

Diversification behavior has certainly

forced the advertising and his men to

diversify their procedures, and

consequently needed to expand techniques

to maximum primary behavioral

dispositions. [1–10]

Searching for ingenuity in the advertising

and proximity to the patron, advertisers

depend increasingly buzz marketing.

Hetzel et al. (2002) [57]

adds that he had to

sell his emblem to find every other manner

to talk, it should innovate.

Heilbrunn et al. (2005) [58]

supported that

buzz marketing is a time period considered

via a few as indistinct and obscure,

however this technique is increasingly

more sought after as agencies and

counseling organizations are confronted

with a major communication hassle, the

one of saturation of purchasers against

advertising broadcast. We attempt, on this

studies, to better understand this time

period and the aim of this paintings is to

provide clear answers to creative and

commercial enterprise are skeptical

approximately this concept so one can

manual their preference of their

communication method. On this context, it

is far to recognize the role of conversation

India

Abstract

In this paper, a trial has been made to establish the money performance of Tata steel

restricted. Tata steel is one of the quality companies in production business. Reference period

of study was 10 years. In order to attain the target of the study, the researchers have

employed analysis of numerous ratios. This study is conducted purely based mostly on

secondary information obtained through web site of the Tata Steel restricted. By using the

magnitude relation analysis tool we have a tendency to will analyze the performance of the

industry of Republic of India and that we will simply resolve the strength and weakness of the

businesses and their position within the market. Different ratios are used in this study and

notably those that are associated with the finances. For this purpose balance sheet from

2005–2006 to 2014–2015 of Tata Steel Limited is employed and from them ratios are

calculated.

Keywords: financial crises, profitability and liquidity ratio analysis, Steel Company

INTRODUCTION

Ratio analysis is such an important

technique for money analysis. It includes

relation of 2 mathematical expressions and

the relationship between two or additional

things. Financial quantitative relation is a

quantitative relation of selected values on

enterprise’s financial plan. There are

several customary ratios used to judge the

status of an organization or different

organization. Tata steel restricted was

erstwhile identified as Tata iron and

company limited. It is Indian international

steel creating company and its

headquarters area unit in city,

Maharashtra. [1]

Tata Steel Ltd is the world’s 10th largest

company and also the world’s second most

geographically heterogeneous steel

producer. The company may be a

diversified steel producer with major

operations in Asian country, Europe and

South East Asia. They have manufacturing

units in twenty six countries and at

presence in fifty European and Asian

markets. Tata Steel's operations are sorted

underneath six Strategic Business Units

embrace Bearings Division, Ferro Alloys

and Minerals Division, Agric Division,

Tata Growth Shop (TGS), Tubes Division

and Wire Division. They have introduced

several branded steel product, including

Tata Steelier (the world's 1st branded Cold

Rolled Steel), Tata Shaklee (Galvanized

Corrugated Sheets), Tata Tucson (

rubbers), Tata Pipes, Tata Bearings, Tata

Structural, Tata Agric (hand tools and

implements) and Tata Iron (galvanized

wire products) Tata Steel Ltd was

incorporated in the year 1907 with the

Service Failure Analysis for Commutator of Brushed DC Motor

Prateek Rajput*, Manish Vishwakarma

Department of Mechanical Engineering, M.A.N.I.T, Bhopal, India

Abstract Failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) is a tool used for assessing probable failure modes

and their reasons. It aids in ranking the failure modes and mentions remedial actions for the

avoidance of sudden failures in system and enhancement in availability of system. In this

work, an attempt has been made to use FMEA for the commutator of series DC motor. This

approach is helpful in ensuring effective motor performance.

Keywords: commutator, FMEA, RPN

INTRODUCTION

Failure Mode and Effect Analysis

(FMEA)

FMEA is one such quality tool which is

used for reliability analysis and is fruitful

to improve reliability of a product or

system. FMEA scrutinizes the potential

failure modes of system and analyse

reason and effect of each failure mode. It

helps to identify loop holes in system, puts

forward development measures and design

plans, so as to improve the reliability of

product or system.[1–3]

FMEA also find its application to describe

quality review points, preventive

maintenance actions, operational

constraints, measures required to lessen

the failure risk.[4–8]

Ideally, FMEAs are

applied in the product design or process

development stages, although use of

FMEA on existing products and processes

can also yield substantial benefits.[9–11]

In this paper D C series motor is taken for

study. In series motors, the field coil and

armature have series connection. This

project is about the commutator failure in

DC motor by using FMEA technique

which identifies how the process will flop

and how to abolish or reduce risk of

failure.

DC Motor

To obtain mechanical energy from

electrical energy electromechanical energy

conversion process is required.

Electromechanical conversion device is a

linkage in the middle of electrical and

mechanical systems. Dynamo is such type

of a device. Dynamo convert electrical

energy to mechanical energy or

mechanical energy to electrical energy.

When a dynamo is run by a prime mover

and it supply electrical energy then it is

called as generator while when dynamo

takes electrical energy as input and gives

mechanical energy as output then it is

called as motor (Figure 1).[5]

Strategy for Hero Motocorp Limited

P. Megaladevi*, S. Parimala, M. Muthupriya

School of Management Studies, Jay Shriram Group of Institutions, Avinashipalayam, Tirupur, Tamil Nadu,

India

Abstract

Working capital management as a money strategy has its effects on liquidity additionally as

profit of the firm. Hero Motocorp Limited was selected for an amount of 10 years from 2006

to 2015. The effect of completely different variables of assets management as well as current

quantitative relation and profit movement co-efficient was used for analysis. The results

showed that there is an indirect correlation (0.201) between current ratio and gross profit

margin. This means that as current quantitative relation reduces, gross profit of the

corporate will increase. The firm should be aggressive in the management of its assets to

enhance profit. In order to run the corporate successfully, the fixed and the current assets

play a commendable role. Managing the working capital is necessary as a result of, it has a

serious significance on profitability and liquidity of the business. The various parts for

measurement the assets management embrace the owed days, Inventory turnover days,

Payable days, Cash conversion cycle, Current quantitative relation and fast ratio on the web

in operation profit of the Hero Motocorp restricted. The controlled variables like; fixed

assets on total assets, the debt ratio and the size of the firm (measured in terms of logarithm

of sales) have conjointly been used for measurement of the assets management.

Keywords: financial strategy, liquidity, profitability, working capital

INTRODUCTION Working capital is that the quantity of

funds necessary to hide the price of in

operation the enterprise. Every business

wants funds for 2 purposes-for its

institution and carries out its day to day

operations. It is the a part of firm’s capital

which is needed for funding short term or

current assets like money, marketable

securities, debtors, inventories.

Working capital management is bothered

with the issues that arise in making an

attempt to manage the present assets, the

current liabilities and also the relationship

that exists between them. Assets refer to

those assets which is in standard course of

business will be, into cash inside one year

while not undergoing administration in

price and while not disrupting the

operation of the corporations. Examples

are money, marketable securities, account

receivables and inventory.

Current liabilities square measure those

liabilities that are supposed, at their

inception to be paid in the standard course

of business in a very year out of current

assets or earnings of the priority. The basic

current liabilities are account liabilities,

bills payable, bank overdraft and

outstanding expenses. Efficient

management of operating capital may be

Highlights on the Effect of Lean Concept in Aero Industry

Priyanka Garg University of Madras, Tamil Nadu, India

INTRODUCTION

Of all the domains, aerospace industry

carries a wide range of scope for research

and development from diversified

engineering fields. Every aspect of

technology can be equally important to

materialize different aerospace projects.

Also, the industry expertise holds a great

responsibility to coordinate the demands of

delivery, cost, quality and the flexibility of

every aerospace operation to achieve

client’s satisfaction. In all the processes,

the resources as well as the services are

utilized in plenty without compromising

on the quality and efficiency of the

technology developed. In the meanwhile, a

huge amount of waste is realized in

various sectors of the aerospace industry.

Due to increasing rate of wastage of

manpower, resources and time, experts are

putting efforts towards dealing with the

problem of waste management. Lean

concept is one of the most favored

methodologies encouraged for process

improvement and waste reduction.

Mechanism based on Lean principles

carries a systematic approach to eliminate

wastage of resources, services and thereby

reducing the time consumption in

aerospace industry.

LEAN CONCEPT

Lean principles are the mechanism for

process improvement developed by

Womack and Jones based on the original

work done by Ohno of the Toyota Motor

Corporation to optimize production by

eliminating waste. Toyota settled on an

effective strategy based on: Kanban-based

pull production, eliminate waste, faith in

the value and importance of quality,

continuous improvement, belief in the

value and utilization of human resources,

reducing setup time for machines,

integration of suppliers and material

acquisition and efficient, cellular layouts

with balanced material flow. It has four

defining characteristics: waste awareness,

continuous quality assurance, just in time

and level production.

LEAN CYCLE

The concept of lean production is

continuous improvement. It is a long-tern

journey and efforts. The lean cycle

combine and link the Plan-Do-Check-

Action (PDCA) cycle.

Plan Aspect

1) Mindset change the company awareness

and mindset change are the most important

for the lean implement. There are many

different functional groups in aerospace

manufacturing suppliers, including design

engineering, production engineering,

production control, parts fabrication and

component assembly, etc. Those

functional groups should change their

mindset and stereotype to remove interface

barrier within the organization. All

departments align the same goal and target

to achieve the overall benefit of enterprise.

The key issues of mindset change describe

as follow:

Top management commitment is the key

successful factor for improvement

activities. All improvement ideas need the

support from management to become

activities and obtain benefits.
