the customers’ expectations and identify that they are satisfied customer.

A large part of successful management includes dealing with other people. Managers must deal
with their workers. There are issues that arise, and how they are resolved will affect productivity
within the company. They also must constantly develop relationships with suppliers and others in
their given industry.

9. As management problem:
The largest problem with B2B businesses and their marketing is awareness or traffic. There’s
always a big product launch, integrated campaign, or large event around the corner. But before
you get to the point of implementation, you must first figure out the right demographic. You have
to get the attention of the proper audience and get people interested in your business, product,
or service. Many marketers face the challenge of not having a large enough volume of interested
prospects, while some others just don't know which channels they should focus their efforts on
for the highest return.
These are the problems faced by the company:
• Lack of Market Study addressing demand and supply.
• Feasibility study of new product before launching hasn’t been done appropriately.
• Lack of coordination between company and distribution. Valuable suggestions and
information has been neglected.
• Under-estimation of demand from low economic country.
• Incompetent management for addressing changing vehicle market.
