...Marketing Plan Part E MRT 100 / Journal Entry # 4 Since VIP Board Rentals are an online-based company we will be offering online services. All service packages will have to be booked online so that we have the ability to keep the overhead low by not having a store location. No sales team will be required since we will be using online advertisements via social media, TV, and special events near the snow resorts. With little to no restrictions on site locations, we will be able to travel further out to different snow resorts to serve a larger customer base. Since we are using social media to promote our service, we could use a buy-one-get-one free strategy to draw customers in to try the service. Another one could be a package deal for the length of time that the customer wants to use the service. A multi-day deal would be another strategy that I would use to get customers to keep the product longer at a reduced price. The last strategy that I would try to use would be a convenience strategy. By offering free delivery and in room fitting, this should temp the younger generation to try the service. The younger generations like the convenience of online ordering so that they can avoid the long lines and waits at stores. Our main marketing goals for promotions, offers, and giveaways would be as follows: We would use online promotions on social media to get customers to become interested within the services.

Also, by expanding as first-mover in the western Indian state of Gujarat where Infibeam has just entered into an agreement with the government that will make it a first-mover there. Success is dependent on a marketing campaign that will meet all of these goals. Infibeam grew rapidly during its first three years in business, but it did so only by word-of-mouth advertising. Infibeam has never undertaken a marketing campaign of the magnitude needed to attain its current goals. Several models were used to analyze the environmental and competitive challenges facing Infibeam and multiple alternatives were identified. These alternatives vary in complexity and anticipated effectiveness. The recommendation that is most likely to allow Infibeam to meet all of its stated goals is a combination of fundraising, marketing and corporate restructuring. Implementation of the recommendations in this analysis will propel Infibeam into the top 5 e-retailers in India. Background Infibeam entered the online retail market in India during 2007 when 5 former Amazon employees joined together to create an Indian version of the giant retailer.

...Market Assessment EXCEL Business Consulting 1 Market Plan Weakness One of the most critical flaws when you “know all about” your technology, is that often you over look what you don’t know about your business. Market plans based on assumptions and secondary research do not give you enough information about your customers Consumers perceptions may differ from the reality, and are as important to understand. ? 2 Determining Your Market? Your Business Plan should be based on market research to avoid pitfalls, including: Too small or to broad a target market Lack of real product/service advantage Not knowing which features / benefits drive consumption Bad timing Not knowing what the customer wants 3 The Marketing Planning Process Build the Foundation With a Market Assessment 4 Assessment of the Current Situation The entrepreneur must perform both: 1. Research and Analyze • Secondary 2. Understand markets and customers • Primary 5 What does research provide? Answers the question “who is your customer”.

The marketer needs basic information to evaluate a country market’s potential, identify problems that would eliminate a country from further consideration, identify aspects of the country’s environment that need further study, evaluate the components of the marketing mix for possible adaptation, and develop a strategic marketing plan. One further use of the information collected in the preliminary analysis is as a basis for a country notebook. Many companies, large and small, have a country notebook for each country in which they do business. The country notebook contains information a marketer should be aware of when making decisions involving a specific country market. As new information is collected, the country notebook is continually updated by the country or product manager. Whenever a marketing decision is made involving a country, the country notebook is the first database consulted. New-product introductions, changes in advertising programs, and other marketing program decisions begin with the country notebook. It also serves as a quick...

...2014 DIRECT MARKETING PLAN FOR UNI TRANSPORT 2|Page 3 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY We developed a direct marketing plan for the transportation service known as the UNI Transport. We have come up with a marketing plan from where we have developed a direct marketing plan. We have firstly come up with a SWOT analysis through which we have identified the strengths, weakness, opportunities and threats. From there we have identified our target market and then we have gone further in to build a customer database from which we have identified our types of customers. From there we have moved on to the existing communications used and then we went for the marketing objectives and strategy. From the marketing objectives, we have recommended the communications that should be used by the service. After that, we have moved on to describe what the service offers and then we have talked about the types of payment terms. Since price and growth are interrelated, we have later moved on to the Ansoff matrix. Lastly we have calculated the expected return on investment and the upcoming plans for the coming years. 3|Page 4 OVERVIEW OF THE SERVICE The service we have chosen to work on is a university transportation service, run by a student of North South University.

...marketing Appendix 1 Marketing Plan The Marketing Plan: An Introduction (pp A1–A2) As a marketer, you’ll need a good marketing plan to provide direction and focus for your brand, product, or company. With a detailed plan, any business will be better prepared to launch a new product or build sales for existing products. Nonprofit organizations also use marketing plans to guide their fund-raising and outreach efforts. Even government agencies develop marketing plans for initiatives such as building public awareness of proper nutrition and stimulating area tourism. The Purpose and Content of a Marketing Plan Unlike a business plan, which offers a broad overview of the entire organization’s mission, objectives, strategy, and resource allocation, a marketing plan has a more limited scope. It serves to document how the organization’s strategic objectives will be achieved through specific marketing strategies and tactics, with the customer as the starting point. It is also linked to the plans of other departments within the organization. Suppose a marketing plan calls for selling 200,000 units annually. The production department must gear up to make that many units, the finance department must arrange funding to cover the expenses, the human resources department must be ready to hire and train staff, and so on. Without the appropriate level of organizational support and resources, no marketing plan can succeed. Although the exact length and layout will vary from company to...
