This post was last updated on December 14th, 2020
BNMIT in association with Skill Genix conducted a Skill development program from 19th to 24th October 2020 for the III sem MBA students. Market research is a powerful marketing tool. Today, there is a growing demand to carry it out in an intelligent, innovative and faster way. Consumers communicate at breakneck speed. With mobile phones in hand they immediately let you know what they think and experience. Creating campaigns based on a traditional market survey done months ago may be of little use today.
