There are end numbers of Medias to expose message to customers and potential. T.V. and news papers are most useful media of ads. But unfortunately, Signature Laminates not uses news paper, magazine as a media to expose message. Television has highest weight age through which makes aware customers with Signature Laminates.
However, they also use in good proportion of wall painting and poster which is most costly and having long effect media.

LLIMITATIONIMITATION OFOF THETHE RESEARCHRESEARCH
During the process of this research a person comes across certain restrictions, certain limitations. Some of these limitations are overcome while some have to be overlooked for the smooth conduction of the research. Some of the restriction which comes in my way during research are:-
Limited number of questionnaire filled up by consumers.
No right information by the people.
Limited time period
Inexperience was the another problem.
We consider region Kalol
‘Target respondents are above 15 years.
All the respondents could not fill their questionnaire on their own due to language problem.
Finding of the study are based on the assumption that the respondents have given correct information
In spite of the limitations a sincere effort has been put in to get the relevant information and desired information. The final information may not be in accordance to the actual situation due to these limitations.

SSUGGESTIONSUGGESTIONS ANDAND RECOMMENDATIONSRECOMMENDATIONS
At present Signature is not emphasizing on advertisement in any media.
I would like to suggest the company to give more emphasis on the advertisements.
Budget of the advertisement should be increased to a greater extent.
Time duration of the AD”S should be made longer.
Banners and hoardings are also suggested to increase the publicity of the brand and create the brand image.
College of Computer & Management studies, Vadu.Jitendrakumar V. Bhavani

CCONCLUSIONONCLUSION
Virtually, all business establishment, including large and small on there objectives and resources
Advertisement and sales promotion are most important tools to aware customers about brand and also to improve image and demand of product as well as company itself
We understand that the retailers need support from the companies, but the priority is fixed as the advertisement is on top, the promotional schemes provided by the company is on second and the final they want is the brand loyalty of the company. Or the product they are going to sales.
Whew as advertisement offers a reason to buy, sales promotion offers an incentive to buy.
Signature Laminates is in good line and length in Laminates market. It has good policy. Sales promotion schemes are also comparatively effective. Currently, sales of Signature Laminates in Gujarat State in Rs. 800000 and rs 3900000 per month respectively. Sales growth is increasing day by day however it ahs to give more emphasis to advertisement in T.V. news papers, and other effective medias t create awareness and brand preference.
