EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Newspaper Industry can be said as the most trusted Industry as people believe whatever is written in the newspaper as facts and day to day happenings. My motive was to broaden the spectrum of trust and acquire more customers for Business Standard Newspaper For every industry to be successful in its domain, it is necessary that a detailed analysis be done regarding its customers, the competitive environment, the customer’s preferences and the demand. This was perhaps one of the most important purposes of my project i.e. to collect a primary data. My job was to meet the Managers of Banks and various other Financial Institutions, get their feedback on Business Standard and other financial dailies they read and explain them the subscription plan.
