Editor's Notes

  • #10 We can control them, if we pay them on the time. We should also keep contacts with multiple sources because it is very less risky. If one supplier stops to supply us, we can get raw material from other supplier.
  • #11 If the customers do not feel delighted they will buy from other sources leading to decline in sales.hence we should maintain good relations with our customers.
  • #12 Middlemen, physical distribution firms and marketing service agencies are main market intermediaries. We should choose best market intermediaries for fast distribution of our products.
  • #14 . If company has to win competition, it has to sell good quality product at lower price.
  • #18  In big companies, there may be large number of economist whose work is to make economic policies and economic planning They monitor all external economic factors and to reduce company's economic weaknesses and risks.
  • #19 In India, there are lots of laws which has been made by Indian Govt. In these laws, we can add company law 1956 and Factory act 1948. For controlling stock exchanges,Govt. has made SEBI. For controlling banking business, Govt. has made RBI.
  • #20  1. Size of population- All these elements are relating to business. If size of population is increasing with high growth rate, demand is increased.2. Growth rate- High growth rate of population is also tells us high rate of supply of laborers. Many companies motives to invest money in developing countries due Cheap labor power and developing market. 3. family size:Suppose, we are making residential rooms. For making residential rooms, we should study the number of family members who will live in it4. Educational level-Educational level of our customer may also affect our marketing techniques. If our customers are very educated, we can use online advertising, if they are not educated we have to use old means of advertising.5 Age composition- Before producing the product, we see what age group will use this. For example, young population are interested to wear jeans but old age population are interested to wear kurta and pajama.6. Sex composition-Sex composition are two one is male and other is female. We also study the number of our customers who are female and no. of our customers are female. If female are more than male, we will care their need specially in making of our products.
