2014). Furthermore, information about the customer responses are discussed below:
 What is your age?
In this questionnaire, this question related to the age of the customers was asked to analyse the
different segments of the customers that the company need to target and provide services
differently. From the analysis, it was found out that the major customer segment of the company
Atlas Bicycle are the people who belong to age group of 18-25. 72.3% of respondents belong to
the first group of 18-25 age groups further, respondents belonging to age group of 26-33 are
22.73% and respondents in 34-41 age group segment are approx. 5%. Young people of age group

Consumer Behavior and Marketing Psychology 4
bicycle to go to nearby places and office instead of any other conveyance because it keeps them
fit and is economic as well (Shen, Tai, and Liu 2015).
 What is your gender?
The age group of the customers is important to know so as to analyse better about the perception
regarding the brand. There are 21.74% participants who belong to the category of male while
74% of female users of the bicycle and 4% of others. Mostly female use the Atlas Bicycle
because they are easy and handy to use and they are safe as well. The bicycles are not equipped
with highly extensive features; instead the company provides easy and feasible features in the
bicycle that provides ease to the women riders in the environment. So, it can be said that that the
bicycles are majorly used by females in the society as they find it as a good way of conveyance
for them (Samiee, et. al., 2016). Female like the Atlas brand in the market because they believe
that the bicycles are easy to manage and ride as well. The brand attracts fewer males in the
market because they have settled features which are not highly innovative in the market. The
males are fond of speed while women use it as a source of conveyance due to which there is
difference in the interest. Thus, it should be noted that the company has more female customers
that male customers in the market (Khaniwale 2015).

the people are 9% while the passive promoter who recommend the brand to people on the scale
of 7-8 are 52% and the detractors are 39%. From this survey question, it was analysed that the
company is unable to motivate the customers to highly recommend the brand in the target market
(Sherry, and Fischer 2017). There are various brands of bicycle present in the environment that
are attracting the interest of the customers, so it is important for the business to motivate the
customers and make them spread information about the Atlas Bicycle in the business
environment. It should be noted that the company is already highly famous in the market the
customers might not recommend the brand to the people it is already the first choice of people in
the market. However, still the net promoter score of the company is negative (-30) (Bacik,
Gavurova, and Fedorko 2015).

target market (Eisend 2015).

said that the products are good against the value for money and 21% respondents said that the
Atlas Bicycles are unique. Around 43% respondents expressed that the company serve high
quality products in the market and 26% said that they are reliable as well. So, it can be said the

services in the market (Fetscherin, and Heinrich 2015).
