          INTRODUCTION

BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

          The objective of any organization is to create customers and satisfying them at a profit that is, producing goods and service that will satisfy the needs, wants and derives of the customer and making a profit which will enable the company to survive.  The purpose of any business must lie in the society since a business enterprise is an organ of the society.

          It is the customer that determines what a business is, for it is the customer and he alone, who through being willing to pay for goods or for services.  Convert economic resources into wealth, things into good.

Any business must find out what its market is, who the customer is, where he is, what he considers value, what his unsatisfied wants, how does he buy and how can he be reached, it is the duty of the company to provide what the customers need.

          The main function of a company is marketing and innovation.  Marketing is distinguishing the unique function of the business.  A business is set apart from all other human organization by the fact that it market a product or service.

Any organization that fulfils itself through

1.       Marketing a product or service is a business and any organization in which marketing is either absent or incidental is not a business any should never be run as if  it were one.

          The duty of marketing starts at the beginning rather than the end of the business because through its studied and researches will establish.  What the customer wants in a given period or season, what price he is willing to pay in a given product, have authority in product planning, innovation which is the last function of a business is the provision better and more economic goods and services.

The company introduced a new product known as “CRISTOLYN COUGH EXPECTORANT” into the Enugu market.  At the early stage, this product did not make the expected impact and the company did not give up.

The product has bee in the market for up.
