INTRODUCTION

i

1.1 Introduction
A business may have developed terrific products and put together a supremely
talented management team, but ultimately success hinges on persuading significant
numbers of customers to select that company’s products or services rather than buying
from someone else. Growing a business comes down to the ability to sell. Innovative
strategies, a comprehensive understanding of consumer behavior and aggressive
communication of the company’s message combine to bring about sales success.
Marketing and communication strategies are designed to position the company as
being superior to its competitors. The marketing message must show specific reasons
the customer should purchase its products or services

An advertising company, often referred to as a creative company, is a business


dedicated to creating, planning, and handling advertising and sometimes other forms
of promotion and marketing for its clients. An ad company is generally independent
from the client; it may be an internal department or company that provides an outside
point of view to the effort of selling the client's products or services, or an outside
firm. An company can also handle overall marketing and branding strategies
promotions for its clients, which may include sales as well.

Typical ad company clients include businesses and corporations, non-profit


organizations and private agencies. Agencies may be hired to produce television
commercials, radio commercials, online advertising, out-of-home advertising, mobile
marketing, and AR advertising, as part of an advertising campaign.

Digital marveled is a 360-Degree local advertising company. I was really very


privileged to be a part of the great team. During my three months internship with this
organization, I have learnt how to deal with customers through online and also got a
chance implement my academic knowledge through making presentations according
to the clients brief. Since I was working in digital communication department, so the
whole report will cover the effect and importance of digital marketing
communication.
2

Digital marketing is the marketing of products or services using digital technologies,


mainly on the Internet, but also including mobile phones, display advertising, and any
other digital medium.

Digital marketing's development since the 1990s and 2000s has changed the way
brands and businesses use technology for marketing. As digital platforms are
increasingly incorporated into marketing plans and everyday life, and as people use
digital devices instead of visiting physical shops, digital marketing campaigns are
becoming more prevalent and efficient.

Digital marketing methods such as search engine optimization (SEO), search engine
marketing (SEM), content marketing, influencer marketing, content automation,
campaign marketing, data-driven marketing, e-commerce marketing, social media
marketing, social media optimization, e-mail direct marketing, display advertising, e–
books, and optical disks and games are becoming more common in our advancing
technology.

Facebook marketing refers to creating and actively using a Facebook page as a


communications channel to maintain contact with and attract customers. Facebook
actively provides for this, allowing users to create individual profiles or business
pages for companies, organizations, or any group attempting to develop a fan base for
a product, service, or brand.

1.2 Origin of the Report

I am preparing this report as a part of my MBA program which is called internship. I


did my internship at Digital Marveled , a digital marketing company where I got to
know about the real implications of marketing theories. Digital marveled is an
emerging digital marketing company in Bangladesh. I completed my internship in the
Client Service Department of Digital marveled. I came to know how digital platform
works in our country as well as how brands are being benefited by it. I have prepared
this report on the overall digital performance . The title of the report is “Monitoring
& Analyzing the Use of Social Media to Reach Customers.”
4

1.3 Scope of the study

The report‟s scopes are followed below-

 Information for the analysis was collected from the internal websites, database,
research papers, study materials, social network and knowledge sharing platform
of Digital marveled.
 Geographic scope of the report is limited within Bangladesh market.

1.4 Significance of the study:

With the help of modern technologies and preponderance of Facebook Marketing,


businesses are doing all that they can to match up the pace in Bangladesh. Businesses
are either changing their plans of action into the digital one, or amplifying existing
marketing strategies with digital advertising techniques.

This report is completely discussing about digital media agencies. There was a time
when Television was the most popular medium for Marketer to promote, spread
awareness and generate leads for their products but now the trend has changed and
social media has taken its place. Among them Facebook is giving the lead. Main
reason for this change is-

 Traditional methods are expensive. Compared to digital marketing channels, you


could end up spending thousands of dollars more. In this report, an example is
given based on this issue.
 Traditional marketing channels fail to provide instant feedback and reports about
who saw or heard an ad, and took action. This data is collected long after the
initial ad impression is made (and still then, the statistics are far from exact
numbers).

Facebook marketing, on the other hand, refers to marketing methods that allow
organizations to see how a campaign is performing in real-time, such as what is being
viewed, how often, how long, as well as other statistics such as sales conversions.

1.5 Objective of the Report


 To measure the impact of Facebook marketing on TVS Motor bikes and its
customers.
 To see how social media changed the way brands act toward customers and how
customers gained power in their relationships with brands.
 The role of Facebook page over the traditional marketing from the customer point
of view to find out, how digital marketing communication is working toward their
needs.

1.6 Methodology

Methodology is very important for a research. It has different steps and I have to
identify each step and consider the concept and go for the research. It includes
research design which is the main structure of a research. Without this it is impossible
to get to the right angle of the research. It is a work plan that moves the research to the
right path. It helps me to answer a logical question and allow me to determine the
things I will need to start the initial research which includes- determining whether the
research will be qualitative or quantitative, determining the sample size and whether it
will be descriptive or explanatory. Basically, it is all about deciding the best way for
the research. I will be doing data collection procedure and will analyze the data. After
collecting data, analysis is very important as it will give me the actual result of this
research which will be based on my data which I have collected.

1.6.1 Type of Paper

To achieve the required results to establish the objective two basic methods
were used-

1. Conclusive:

One type of research designed to assist the decision maker in determining, evaluating
and selecting the best course of action to take in a given situation.

By exploring the Facebook page of TVS bikes and evaluating the insights of every
promotion through the page, reading various articles and literatures about digital
6

marketing and by taking a number of unstructured and in-depth interviews of some of


the employees of Digital marveled, clients end managers, some variables have been
selected related with this report and found the proper insights of TVS motor bike‟s
Facebook page performance..

2. Descriptive :

A type of conclusive research that has its major objective, the description of
something – usually market characteristics or functions.

By this research the market characteristics and functions of „TVS Motor Family‟
Facebook page have been described.

1.6.2 Type of Information:

The study will be both a mixture of quantitative along with qualitative method. A
basic overview of the data collected and used to make this report are described below-

a) Quantitative Data:

Quantitative data about social media performance is collected from Facebook app
manager of Digital marveled.

b) Qualitative Data:

Like quantitative data, qualitative data is also a major stream of information for the
report. List of the source of qualitative is-

1. Internet
2. Social Network Sites
3. Text books
4. Several other reports
1.6.3 Source of Data:

Basically this report is based on one type of data which is secondary data.

1. Secondary Source of Data:

The secondary data sources are:


7

 Facebook app manager of Digital marveled


 Facebook page of TVS Metro Bikes
 Digital marveled‟s documents and publications
 Newspaper, articles, journals and websites.

1.6.4 Method of Data Collection

To know the customer insights of TVS Facebook page, Facebook App Manager of
Digital marveled has been used. Facebook app manager is a data analyzing tool which
provided all the statistical data which was used as secondary data to come with some
findings at the end of the report.

1.7 Limitations of the Study

During the three months‟ internship period, so many obstacles came in. Some of the
limitations in making the report are following-

 In collecting primary data, it is really hard to get correct information from people
as they might not feel comfortable or provide their false feeling.
 To observe the whole corporation activities and come up with a fruitful result
requires huge amount of time, so time limit is another crucial limitation of this
study.
 The internship proposal is conducted based on several secondary data which were
rather inefficient or unreliable.

RESPONSIBILITIES AS AN INTERN

11
14

3.3 Job at a Glance

The job that I was offered at Digital marveled was the position of Intern in the Digital
services department. Digital service is a new department of digital marveled which facilitates
the clients with different kinds of digital marketing solutions. It was a 3 month long
internship program. In Digital Services department, all the team members had to work almost
whole the week and sometimes 24/7 as digital is the most interactive and challenging
platform now-a-days. Like the team members, I also had to work almost 7 days a week
although the general working day is 5. On off-days, I had to work from home. So it was a
combo of office and home-based job. I had another intern co-worker with me. We used to
have a roster-based work plan. The remuneration was according to the organization‟s policy.

3.4 Responsibilities and Description of the Job

This part includes all the responsibilities and detailed description of the job I had to do during
my internship period –

1. Query Management:

Query management of different client‟s Facebook pages was one of the biggest roles of the
job. It was really a boring and at the same time an interesting job. I along with the other
intern had to manage mainly the Facebook pages of Best Electronics, TVS Motor Bike, and
Anwar Landmark.

It was a boring work because we had a target to complete a number of queries per day to be
resolved and had to work one person at a time. Working and resolving problems of the fans
of the pages in team helps make a good work environment and fun. It was really an
interesting work because, from different and weird queries of the fans of the pages, we got to
know about different insights of the industry.
15

2. Client-servicing:

As a team member of the Digital services department, one of my core responsibilities was to
ensuring the clients‟ satisfaction through monitoring their projects. The initial brief about our
clients‟ requirements were given to me via my superiors after whom I had to re-brief the
creative department about the designs. Here was the challenge. To make the job done by a
fresher in the industry especially as an intern to make another department do the job for my
department, it was really tough for me. My intra and inter-departmental relationships helped
me a lot to overcome the challenge.

3. Champaign planning:

As a local creative advertising company, at digital marveled, our most important task here
was to do brainstorming to generate exceptional „out of the box‟ ideas for different brands
and campaigns. For instance, to promote one of the clients „Shajgoj.com”, we had to find out
the best digital marketing campaign to promote their new launched products. Here we had to
find out different ways strategically to launch the campaign.

4. Day-to-day Operations:

As an Intern, there were some day to day tasks in accounts management, creative department
and most importantly in the digital platform. Inter-departmental follow up of ongoing
campaign, upcoming campaigns, monitoring the projects etc. are most remarkable among the
day-to-day tasks.

5. Team Work:

At digital marveled, employees are into teams. So team-work is really very significant
which needs good working relationship. Intra-relationship as well as Inter-relationship is
really important in an organization which I understood nicely working here. While
making good relationship with other teams, it was not any challenge for me as I was
introduced very warmly with other employees. I made good relationship people inside my
department and other departments within a very short time which I believe is the result of my

communication skill.

4.1 Literature review

Literature review is a collection of the existing data or articles related to a particular topic that
are used as the guidelines for conducting a research. This chapter explores a collection of the
past research that has been done that can contribute to my research paper to make it more
effective. The secondary data list is shown below has been integral in providing support to
the primary findings of my research and also serves to ensure the validity of research
findings. The content of this chapter is immensely important towards the completion of this
report.

Author: Charles Rupin

The objective of that research paper is to notice the changes brought by social media in
brands relationship marketing. Also, it aims to see how relationship marketing changed over
the years and what differs from traditional approaches marketers had. Moreover, this paper‟s
purpose is to see how social media changed the way brands act toward customers and how
customers gained power in their relationships with brands.

4.3 Title: Consumer Perceptions of a Brand's Social Media Marketing

Author: Taylor Michelle Smith

The purpose of this project is to assess consumer perceptions of a brand‟s social media
marketing. The results show that brands must be actively engaging their consumers via social
media in order to compete in a competitive marketplace. Engagement can be promoted
through entertaining and interactive posts, useful and relevant content, word of mouth
communication from other consumers, as well as extrinsic reinforces such as promotions and
giveaways. Social media, specifically Facebook and Twitter, is a key platform to build
relationships with consumers and for consumers to get information about a brand and its
products. Consumers are trustworthy of the information posted by the brand and information
posted by other consumers online. The future of social media as a marketing tool is also
considered.

4.4 Title: Impact Of E-Commerce On Markets And Retailers

Author: Menal Dahiya

1) Impact on Markets

 Promotion of Products-Through Ecommerce product can be promote in an interesting way


and with lots of information directly to the customers which reduces the cost of offline
promotion because internet can interact a lot of customers and save amount of cost of
advertisements can be used in different areas of business.

 Customer Service-Customer service can be enhanced because customers can search detailed
information about product or marketplace which offers the product and can compare the
prices of different market places.

 Brand Image- New business men can establish their brands on internet by using attractive
images at an affordable price.

 Advertisement- Traditionally the advertisements were one- way to attract customers and let
them know about the new product or market place but now through e-commerce
advertisements are two-way in which customer can browse the market place and product, can
compare the prices and also can ask questions to the online retailers.

 Customization-Customized products can be made available according to the needs of


customers. It will make a good place of business in market and new customers will be
attracted.

 Order Making Process-Traditionally to take orders from customers, intermediaries are used
which takes a lot of time and expenses but with ecommerce the order taking is so easy which
reduces a lot of time and expenses and they can make more sales

2) Impact on Retailers

 Turnover-Due to e-commerce the turnover of offline retailers has reduced which is a


warning signal for the enterprise.

14
15

 Profit Margin-On the arrival of online shops in the market offline retailers are suffering
from pricing. To survive in market, they have to sell product in law prices which covers only
their operational costs and they do not get any profit margin.

 Discount-Offline retailers sell their products at discounted rates because online stores offer
heavy discount to the customers and to stay in the market and to attract the customers they
have to sell the products at discounts.

 Variety of Stocks-Variety of goods is offered by online stores to which offline retailers


cannot compete because at the end of year the left over stock can give a huge loss to the
retailer.

 Customer Services-Offline retailers are providing different services at which online stores
fails. Repair and goods of services, home delivery and after sales services also like online
shops.

 Window Shopping-Low prices offered by online stores leads to window shopping by


customers at physical stores and they buy product online. Due to which they have prospective
customer‟s more than actual customers.

 Advertisement-Offline retailers focus only on the advertisements so that they can attract
customers and increase their sales. They do not leave a single chance to advertise.

Viewing the use of digital channels in marketing from a customer relationship


perspective offers several benefits to a marketer. Brand communication can be frequent and
personalized, and different options for a dialogue exist. The benefits of dialogue include
learning from and about customers, revealing their needs and interests, and being able to
provide them with better and more personal service. From a customer perspective, the
Internet has given power to get up-to-date information, to compare products and services
more easily, and to get in touch with marketers. In a digital environment, customers
increasingly use self-service and have more options to initiate action. A customer‟s perceived
value of using digital channels and interacting with a marketer can come in several ways; it
could be money, time, information, convenience, and so forth. This chapter examines how
marketers can use digital channels to develop and strengthen customer relationships. In our
framework, brand communication, service, personalization, and interactivity are suggested to
be the key elements.

5.1 Data Analysis

Data Analysis is the procedure of efficiently applying measurable and sensible systems to
portray, consolidate and recap, and assess information. This chapter discusses about the
secondary data that are collected from Facebook Page of TVS motor bikes and analysis of
those data. This is one of the important elements of a research paper. Quantitative data and
qualitative data both have been collected for analysis. Facebook App Manager has done the
collection and analyzed the data from the Facebook page of TVS. They have a powerful
database system and tool that can make charts and automatically make the analysis. It was
handy for analyzing data. These tools were suited in my research as it was a descriptive
research.

5.2 Critical Observations During My Internship Activities

I was instructed to analyze the performance of the Facebook pages of TVS, Anwar Landmark
and Best Electronics and create a monthly insight report for each company. By the help of
Facebook Page Manager I got all the statistical information. In this report I showed my
performance within my three months of internship by the help of Facebook Page Manager.
Here i have only showed the information of TVS Bikes.

6.1 Key Findings

Facebook marketing communication has helped both the businesses and customers from
different aspects. In digital marketing communication, people can meet their actual data
hunger where Facebook plays a great role. According to the findings and analysis in the
previous part, some key findings of the study are given below-

1. Male are the main customers for TVS bikes.


2. Social Media user base has been increased in Bangladesh. Cheap Mobile phones and
smartphones are the key in increasing this number. Again, Students and young generation
is the huge number of the user-base of Bangladeshi Social Media users.
3. Online advertisement is really important in promoting business now-a-days.
4. Customer engagement has been rising in Facebook marketing. Continuous contests,
campaigns, regular posts on pages are making people to engage whereas traditional
marketing has failed to engage customers.
5. Facebook marketing has enables so many things to the customers and brands. Through
Facebook marketing brands are able to increase their sales volume and maintain a good
relationship with them. Consumers can compare brands easily and can figure out who is
actually providing good services to them.
6. Customers are god to the brands. Negative word of mouth can spread quickly in these
days with help of social networking sites. This can hamper in sales. Brands try to be
humble with customers and listen to their problems and solve them
7. The higher a company pays to boost their page the higher reach to its potential customer
will happen. So, to attract a huge population and to create a brand a company should
boost their page regularly

RECOMMENDATION &
CONCLUSION

31
33

7.1 Recommendation
1. The required time to respond to the queries needs to be more prompt
2. Brands should take more surveys on customer preference regarding the shared contents of
the brands.
3. Digital marketing communication is not so costly than any other media but content
management in digital marketing communication is really very important. So marketers
should give more emphasize on content management.
4. Monitor competitors‟ pages to keep ahead in the competition.
5. Boost the content of the Facebook page regularly.
6. Whoever doing businesses especially online shopping related businesses should take
some important measures to make customer information secure and give a good customer
experience. Customer‟s Privacy and customer experience should be the concern of all
marketers.

7.2 Conclusion

The successful completion of this internship indicates that the future of marketing is in the
hands of digital. Digital marketing is not only concerned with placing ads in portals, it
consists of integrated services and integrated channels. Marketers want to use these
components in an effective way to reach target groups and to build a brand. In this digital era,
marketer is not the custodian for a brand; people who are connected across the digital
platforms are the custodians. Brands want to build their presence over digital platform,
because customers have high affinity towards digital media than other media‟s. More than
that customers are highly information seekers and digital media is the only platform for two
way communication between brands and customers.

Digital media is the best platform to convert a product to a brand. Because it is more cost
effective and it provides lot of touch points to marketer. Brands can able to engage their
target group in an effective way through digital platforms. Digital media is not only for
engagement, brands can increase their customers or they can retain their existing customers.
Digital platforms help to increase the impact of brand recall in target groups.
The research focused on the how digital marketing works. Consumers are highly information
seeker and they will do research about a product before going to a retail shop. Therefore,

brands want to give platforms to consumers to understand their product or to get a really feel
of that brand.

I honestly believe that this project report will be useful for marketers to understand the digital
marketing and also to plan for future strategies. I conclude my research by quoting again that
“Brands should pursue digital platform”
