Abstract

This study is based on a big organisation which deals in fuel, gas bottles, lubricants, oils and other general use products. The organisation has many stations spread throughout New Zealand. Marketing strategy is a key element for the success of an organisation. Through their advertising system execution firms utilize rare assets through showcasing capacities, keeping in mind the end goal which is to achieve their set objectives and targets. The aim of this study is to learn how to improve marketing strategies for a leading petrol station in New Zealand. It is also stated in the study in which areas the organisation is behind others, and how can it improve. Both quantitative and qualitative methods are used for the research. The manager of a leading petrol station was interviewed with a series of questions. The study showed that the petrol station used coffee machines that were basic and automatic. The petrol station does not have ultra premium fuel. It provides forecourt service to every customer. It is recommended that the company should end its present contract and do its own branding. The organisation should also offer barista style coffee, provide forecourt service only to those who need it, and launch ultra premium fuel.
