7. Conclusion Suggestions
This project is mainly based on first hand observation in the market, the way customers
perceive the various advertisements and in way it effects their buying behavior.
The Study which I had done in this was about to analyze the advertising
effectiveness of Lenovo laptop and its effect on consumer buying behavior. First of all I had
to go with some past studies which are called Literature review to know the way of
completing the project or some valuable ideas regarding my studies.
After literature review, I came to know that what variable I should include in my study,
considering those variables I prepared the questionnaire to know the desired results and
checked it with one small sample i.e. 10people.
During testing the questionnaire, I came to know some points which i had to change in the
questionnaire to put off the confusion of the respondents.
Then I collected the data of 50 people using convenient sampling. Information was
collected related to the effect of advertising on consumer buying behavior with the help of a
questionnaire.
Then I summarized all the data, and test it with questionnaire on Likert Scale. I made all the
calculations with the help of EXCEL 2007.
The main aim of undertaking this study is to accomplish the following objective:
Limitations of Study:
ROLE OF ADVERTISEMENT:
The human race in constant pursuit of fulfillment. Apart from necessities of food and shelter,
one learns to desire many things, which also become indispensible over a period of time. An
average economic system caters to the needs as well as desires of its people. Advertising is
an integral part of this activity and is one of the most visible elements in providing
information about products, services and ideas. Good advertising, however as put succinctly
by someone, is not to say anything to say everything to sell something worthwhile.
2. Creation of Demand
The main objective of the advertisement is to create a favorable climate for maintaining of
improving sales. Customers are to be reminded about the product and the brand
Large scale advertising is often undertaken with the objective of creating or enhancing the
goodwill of the advertising company.
Medium of Advertising
Radio: Radio advertising is a form of advertising via the medium of radio. Radio
advertisements are broadcasted as radio waves to the air.

About Lenovo
Lenovo creates and builds exceptionally engineered personal technology, but we are much more than a tech company. We are
defining a new way of doing things as a next generation global company. That means we are years ahead of the game in terms
of understanding what it will take to win 5, 10 years from now.
Formed by Lenovo Group’s acquisition of the former IBM Personal Computing Division, Lenovo builds on its dominant
position in China to grow globally. The expansion from East to West – such as by introducing our newest products in China
and then spreading across the globe – is a new way of viewing the world, one we believe will be the way of the future.
That focus on the future is based on a strong history of success that is driving results today. Long the leader in China, Lenovo
is growing rapidly and winning market share in all parts of the world. This balanced growth is what has made Lenovo the
fastest growing major PC company and enabled us to consistently grow faster than the market.
Achieving optimal balance in all that we do is Lenovo’s operating philosophy. This mindset encompasses every aspect of
Lenovo’s business, from balancing leadership with consensus-building, to valuing both short- and long-term thinking. As a
result, we have created a balanced business model and strategy that take maximum advantage of profit and investment across
both core and new businesses. The result is balanced performance and market share growth across all regions, customer
segments, products and business models.
Our mission is to become one of the world’s great personal technology companies. We aspire to achieve this objective by
leading in three key areas:
Personal Computers: Lead in PCs and be respected for our product innovation and quality.
Convergence: Lead the industry with an ecosystem of devices, services, applications and content for people to
seamlessly connect to people and web content.
Culture: Become recognized as one of the best, most trusted and most well-respected companies to work for and do
business with.
1. Primary Source: Data which is collected for the first time and for a specific purpose.
So I had to prepare one questionnaire to collect the responses from 40 people all around
the City.
Sources of Data:
Primary Data is collected from investors from the different locations in BBSR like:
From my friends
From college
Sampling Method
The selection of a sample from a defined target population requires the construction of a
sampling frame. The sampling frame is commonly prepared in the form of a physical list of
population elements. A well-constructed sampling frame allows the researcher to ‘take
hold’ of the defined target population without the need to worry about contamination of the
listing with incorrect entries or entries which represent elements associated with the
excluded population.
Types of Sampling:
Probability sampling:
Non-probability sampling:
The main assumption associated with convenience sampling is that the members of the
target population are homogeneous. That is, that there would be no difference in the
research results obtained from a random sample, a nearby sample, a co-operative sample,
or a sample gathered in some inaccessible part of the population.
Variables:
Variables are of two types: Dependent variables and independent variables refer to values that
change in relationship to each other.
Dependent Variables:
Independent Variables:
Newspaper
Magazine
Internet
Television
Hoardings
Once the questionnaire was prepared it was filled by at least 20 clients due to whom a number of
mistakes were identified in the questionnaire.
Conditions were given so as to make a client convenient in answering the correct question
as per our requirements.
Options were changed so as to make the data analysis easy and convenient and the problem
faced by the clients in verbalizing the information to be provided can be eliminated.
Language of the questions was simplified so that clients can easily understand and answer
them appropriately. Then I collected the data of 50 people through Convenience sampling
and now I had to present this data as per the given frequency, which I had collected through
questionnaire.
