- 10. Limitation of CSR There are some areas where general people do not get any sort of CSR facilities such as Barguna, Chittagong hill tracks, Shunamgonj etc and rural areas of our country. Not doing any kind of CSR activities which is under Community Volunteering and Cause-Related Marketing Very few number of Health Camp initiative taken so far. Robi CSR activities are less visible because of lack of effective promotional strategy.
- 11. Recommendations Increasing the responsiveness of the entire respective department The Corporate Affairs and activation authorities should emphasize more on the responsiveness because any new and unique plan might be copied by the competitors. Increase the Numbers of Health Camp program Robi has very few number of Health Camp initiative taken so far. Right now only 4 Health Camp held all over the Bangladesh is serving the people which is not good enough. So Robi should increase the number of health camp to increase the visibility.
- 12. Developing Community Volunteering & Cause-Related Marketing At the moment Robi Axiata Limited is not doing any kind of CSR activities which is under Community Volunteering and Cause-Related Marketing. But to survive in the competitive Market, Robi should start some CSR activities which are under Community Volunteering and Cause-Related Marketing. Developing Effective Promotional Strategy To increase the awareness level of the general people, Robi should participate in some promotional activities through this program.
- 13. Conclusion • In conclusion that in comparison to other mobile operators , Robi has moderately good CSR awareness level and superior visibility among the general people. If Robi can move away the obstacles and binding which customers are mentioned in my report Robi can reach the root level of the whole Bangladesh. • The social responsibility initiatives are far more effective in building brands in rural market than the commercial advertisement. • General people don’t have enough choice. So if Robi cannot create positive image among general people then they will lose its existing and potential customer as well as the market share. • The mission of Robi to provide total customer satisfaction and help to make a digital Bangladesh. It is high time for Robi to satisfy and retain its existing customer.
