Q :

Stage 1:

Collect data on chosen company and product/service brand and identify the existing segmentation and targeting strategy PESTLE analysis Analyze the data and extract the SWOT current applicable to the chosen product/brand

Ans : identify the existing segmentation and targeting strategy of NEXA . Who then are these customers for whom NEXA is being launched?

Comprising of young Indians who are increasingly global citizens and have achieved success early in life, the

clientele at NEXA will be digitally savvy and avid users of contemporary technologies, including social media.

They are well travelled, well read and have bought a car before - their aspirations and expectations mirror their

rising success in life. They are used to style and convenience and believe in nothing short of best in class

services when it comes to a buying experience.

The strategy to ensure that the NEXA premium retailing network evolves as a model to offer updated merchandise to

customers and grow existing relationships while ensuring higher than average levels of customer experience is starting

to show results.

accounting for around 46% market share .( Company’s 8th Sustainability Report which is

for the period, 1st April, 2015 to 31st March, 2016) page 8.

2. The Company has established a Risk Management process which consists of an

Weaknesses

1. NEXA is not a international brand or satisfy international customer .

2. Employee management, strikes, worker wage problems have affected Maruti's brand

image in the past so it could also happen with NEXA .

3. premium characteristic of the brand NEX are not luxurious as other brands within its

range.( research paper : Brand Analysis of Nexa Dr Komal Chopra Amit Singh Kamit

Malhotra Dhruv Duggal Symbiosis Institute of Management Studie)

4. Parent Brand - Maruti Suzuki. Can harm the brand nexa .

Opportunities

the future can be an opportunity for NEXA.

4. Substitute modes of public transport like buses, metro trains etc

Stage 2: Based upon PESTLE and SWOT identify gaps or opportunities that the company can target afresh

Identify and qualify segments by applying the segment attractiveness measures (such as – measurability; accessibility; substantiality etc.)

Ans :

Gaps or opportunities that the company can target afresh are

these

1.NEXA is a domestic brand it could cater the foreign market s there is a huge

potential in international market .Company could launch Nexa showrooms in

other countries like pakistan , Bangldesh , Nepal etc

2.As one research says that nexa showrooms are not offering the 100 % premium

characteristic which they claim they are made for , customer did not find it to be

as luxurious as other brands within its range . NEXA should improve their servises

for a long time customer. (Brand Analysis of Nexa Dr Komal Chopra Amit Singh

Kamit Malhotra Dhruv Duggal Symbiosis Institute of Management Studies )

3.Nexa showrooms could be open for prime cutomers of bikes/motorcycles

4.NEXA should introduce new models and design instead of Varients of the same

model . New car extririors

5.Customised Cars

6.Nexa should allso introduce Electric Cars

7.Nexa should use make in india campaign in their favour

to the number of gallons of gasoline burned ) in city due to traffic

problems . more fuel efficient hybrid cars

……………………………………………

Identified segments after applying the segment

attractiveness measures (such as – measurability;

accessibility; substantiality etc.)

An attractive market segment is one that offers solid current or long-term profit potential for your business. Companies typically consider the various segment options they have to market to and may target one or multiple markets depending on how much money they have available to invest in marketing.

smallbusiness.chron.com/attractive-marketing-segment-22378.html

Segment 1

Identifiable (Geographical segment )

As Since the inception of NEXA it remained successful so it should also explore some foreign markets to genrate more revenues for the company.

Accessible

International buyer , online customer , Launching NEXA show room in the desired country

Substantial

As the new market will levrage the sales it will incrase the value of the company and its share

value will increase.

NEXA showrooms are exclusive . so very less competition .

Segment 2

Identifiable (Behavirol Segment ) these are those people who have used or checked out other brand`s cars physically or online

when they use NEXA they find some lopeholes and missinformation so if they buy the car once they avoide coming again or spread wrong word of mouth for the brand .

Accessible

By giving diffrent discount/benefit offers these buyers could be captured.

Firstly you can find these people online on the websites which facilitate in car comparasion .

Secondly while they come to your brand showroom . make a mchanism to identify that person has used other brands or not.

Profitable As due to these persons` bad reviews company bear big losses to satisfying other customers so

company should try to make them happy in reverse they will promote the brand free of cost

A large number of people behave in this way as on Black Friday offers so these could fetch the company a good revenue.

Growth rate This segment has huge potential as youtube and other social websites are expanding .

Segment 3

Identifiable (Demographic )

Midel and upper class could be the target .

Accessible

Same as Maruti has opened the NEXA for CARS it can Open NEXA showrooms for bikes as well as . There is a big apportunity for capturing Prime bike customers.

Profit

bike is a need + style so there is a huge big market of this segment .Bikes are not so much expensive as CARS but bikes could be sold more than cars so could be profitable market .

Growth There is huge potential of growth of this segment and right now there is no competition too. The industry is growing at a rate of 30% annually.

Segment 4

Identifiable (Psychographic)

Some persons use a product for few months and tired of that they want new verity

not the varients of same product.

Accessible

By making Exclusive CARS portion in the NEXA showrooms and frequently online promotions and new exterior design production this segment of customers could be captured . company can take orders in advance for their upcoming exclusive models for super premimum

customers .

Profit

Company can charge a little bit more for exclusive and limited

Cars.

Growth rate

This segment also has good potential if appropriatly focused and

advertised well.

Segment 5

Identifiable ( Demographic / Behavirol)

Some secular and tech lover buyers now want Electric cars but

almost no company in India is focusing on this NEXA could make a hybrid engine of Electricity and CNG and become no1

brand through inception.

Accessible

These customers could be access through online car portals

data and advertisng on TV and social media.

Profit

New technology always sold on high prices and I think premium

customers can afford it too.

Growth

Some of the European countries have announced to

compeletly eliminate hzardous gas emiting cars. Which

means developing countries can aslo take such initiatives. So

there is a huge potential in this segment.

Segment 6

Identifiable (Demographic)

Some nationalist and conservatives always support the

product of their country NEXA can use the sentiments of

these people for their CAR sales e.g by launching a CAR in

the name “ Kirshina CAR “ could incrase the sales of the

company .

Accessible

These people could be accessed at religious places like

Temple and Nationalist processions and meetings and by

advertising on nationalist chanels as punjabi chaneli,hind

chanel etc.

Profitable

Launching a Product by featuring some culture or custome

will hit the sentiments of the people in this segment like

texture,Name and interrior will not be burden on the

company production line .

As company will launch the product for this

particular segment its sales could increase if

apprpriatly advertised.

Growth rate

This segment has great potential as there is

one dominated religion in the country so

cutomers can bost immesly.

Segment 7

Identifiable (Demographic) Mileage lover : while considering the reviews of different NEXA Cars Models most people were prefering and focusing on mileage so by providing good mileage car at reasonable price

this segment of customers can be captured.

Accessible

These customers could be found in middel classs some time in

lower middel class . ( access through TV ,Social media )

Profitable AS most of the population belongs to middel class fulfilling the needs of this segment can

incrase the sales.

As other companies are already providing less mileage as compared toNEXA in the same range of Price so NEXA

can improve revenue .

Growth rate

There is a huge potential in this sector is appropritly

addressed because middle class is maximum than upper and

lower class.

Segment 8

Identifiable (Geographic /Demographic ) Beyond the CAR selling NEXA can offer Primium CAR servicing which would be able to

collect the out of order CAR from any point within the range or provide car mobile servicing .

Accessible Busy Persons , Ladies and almost all kind of people who can drive could be target customers . and access through Social media and TV and bilboards.

Profit

Nexa has already established Its name this servicing could help in genrating more revenues by usingthe name of NEXA. Company can easily afford the subsidiary business as it is already running some others e.g CAR finance and insurance srvices.

Growth rate Huge potentail of groth as there is CAR , car owner need a service firm too,no competitor and CARS always rquire service so never ending business.

Segment 9

Identifiable ( Behavirol) Most of the customer now purchase products online or take decisions by visiting online

webportals.company should focus on online advertising and good web experience.

TV adds

Local Propmotions by Bilboards , colleges universities

Substantiality

Through the below graph we can suppose how Big is the Bikes market .

Suzuki`s share in the Bike sector is very low it can increase its sales by launching bikes on the base of

NEXA

http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/motorbikes/175343-march-2016-two-wheeler-sales-figures-analysis.html

I`ll suggest Suzuki to Position NEXA Bike showrooms

directly against its competitor’s .

Position Bike purchasing benfits with the same range of Bikes of other

brands at Reasonable Price , Good Portfolio of Bikes , Price

Comparasions , Bike health service and Mobile app .
