PRODUCT
Berried offers Byron Bay Chocolate Factory’s gourmet chocolate coated fruit and nut and fresh, high quality strawberries packaged in a small take-away Chinese container.

The product has altered slightly in that Berried does not offer the strawberries pre-dipped. This is a conscious decision made by the marketing team to make the product a tangible item and an attractive gift option for Mother’s Day on the following day (May 11th). The product maintains its luxury branding throughout its product, price, promotion and distribution strategies.
MISSION STATEMENT
“At Berried, we are committed to supplying our customers with both gourmet chocolate and fresh, high quality strawberries in a unique manner”
MARKETING TEAM
Shelley Lee (Marketing Manager)
Keegan Sutherland (Product Manager)
Taylor Willmott (Pricing Manager)
Gina Theron (Distribution Manager)
Ellyse Sainty (Promotion Manager)
KEY COMPETITORS 1. Silver Spoon (Stall no. 49)
Located on the other side of the market space, potentially attracting customers that do not see Berried’s stall first.

Fudge brownies often contain chocolate, being one of Berried’s major ingredient, therefore directly competing with Berried’s products.

2. C’est Bon Bon (Stall no. 11)
Situated right next to Berried’s stall, increasing competition for passing customers

Could show potential of being a market leader as macarons are becoming a bit of a fashion statement in the sweets industry. Nicole Rupersberg (2014), describes the macaron as the biggest contender for food trends after the cup cake.

3. Accessories Me (Stall no. 23)
Located right next to Berried’s stall, increasing competition for passing customer

Although not in the same industry or selling a similar product, Accessories ME are situated right next to Berried and depending on their stall design, atmosphere and unique set up they could distract customers from Berried’s products.
TARGET MARKET and POSITIONING SUMMARY SEGMENT | DESCRIPTION | Roy Morgan Segment | Young Optimist | Demographic | Average Age: 20Population: 78Gender: Male (19.2%)Female (80.8%)Average Income: $277 |

‘Berried’ hopes to achieve high customer need satisfaction within the segment by providing unique, consistent, interactive branding, a well-designed stall, and packaging that is both easy to carry and recyclable whilst maintaining a label associated with luxury.

“Berried will position itself as a premium-prestige sweet treat, with a fresh, healthy twist”

Berried seeks to fulfil a gap in the QUTopia market for specialised chocolate products, satisfying those who associate a sense of comfort and pleasure with chocolate; as well as offering a fresh and unique twist with strawberries.

MARKETING OBJECTIVES SPECIFIC OBJECTIVE | Achieve 70% total sales projection for Market day 1. Achieve 90% of total sales projection for Market day 2. Achieve 66.7% market share by the final market day 2. | Implement price leadership to yield a 20% profit increase of the initial net profit projection of $2985 from market day 1 to 2. Achieve over 57% profitability for both market days. | Obtain 5% more market share than closest competitor C’est Bon Bon by close of QUTopia | Achieve 68% customer satisfaction. | Achieve 20% brand awareness by market day 1. Achieve 40% brand awareness by market day 2. |
*Projections have been altered slightly in accordance with low marketing activities prior to Market Day 1.

MARKETING MIX STRATEGIES and TACTICS STRATEGIES | Tactics | PRODUCT | Berried is offering a specialty product which is non-durable. To increase its leverage in the market and to meet its sales objectives, Berried offers two product lines, marketed as ‘naughty or nice.’1. Naughty: Byron Bay Dark Chocolate served with Fresh Strawberries. 2. Nice: Byron bay Milk Chocolate/Mixed fruit Chocolate served with fresh strawberries.4.1.1 Branding- Berried chose the more rustic yet energetic specialized approach as this created a more premium brand feel and would give the product a sense of specialty. This approach was chosen to highlight the ‘premium’ product berried has to offer. While their product could be placed in the less premium and exclusive position, Berried would lose the connection between the brand and the product. By Incorporating a Current trend (The rustic yet energetic specialized approach) and a unique product line (Naughty and nice) to the brand strategy, Berried will be able to catch consumer’s attention much easier as people will already have an attached emotion.4.1.2 Product packaging- The product will be presented to the consumer in sleek white box with black tissue tucked inside. To set the product apart from the competitors and provide extra marketing, custom vinyl stickers have been made to stick on the front of the box, which will tie in with the raw rustic yet sleek feel Berried are incorporating in their image. This product packaging will also allow for a tangible, take home product and capitilises on the Mothers’ Day opportunities identified in the SWOT analysis. | PRICING | Berried will implement a premium pricing strategy. This strategy will be executed through price leadership tactics on market day 1. The product pricing will range between 50-70 QUTopian dollars. This pricing strategy aims to align Berried’s product with a premium-prestige image to attract status conscious consumers and those consumers with a price-quality perception. Berried has outlined pricing contingency plans in the initial marketing plan to enable the business to adapt its strategies to the competitive and dynamic market day environment. If consumers on market day 1 appear to be more price sensitive than initially predicted and competitors have set lower per unit price points Berried will alter the pricing strategy to compete on price through value pricing. This strategy will be achieved through quantity discounts, charging lower price for larger quantities. Following Berried’s performance on market day 1 the business’s pricing may be altered for market day 2 in order to achieve business objectives by the completion of both market days. | DISTRIBUTION | Location – situated near one of the main entrances so promotion will be targeted at this area however efforts will be made to attract customers on the other end of the market place to increase sales. Layout – in order to the 1.5mX1.5m space efficiently the stall must be organized at all time, with an effective storage system. Signage, decoration and music will be incorporated to create a positive atmosphere. Service delivery and distribution – through the use of B2C channels berried will aim to provide various distribution channels for the convenience of potential customers (on the spot delivery, free samples, opportunities for workers to order from stalls) Branding – the stall will compliment the simplistic yet luxurious image displayed in Berried’s logo. | PROMOTIONAL | ‘Berried’ seeks to increase customer reach and in turn sales through a combination of advertising and sales promotion. Due to limitations of the simulation the most fitting location to advertise will be at the market day’s as the entire population of consumers will be present. In order to make the branding familiar to the public, give it a sense of personality and ultimately stimulate purchase T-shirts have been created with both the slogan and stall number for staff members to wear whilst handing out samples and business cards. The branding is further enforced and publicised by appearing on packaging and the stall display. Furthermore, ‘Berried’ has offered a number of short-term incentive consumer promotions including sampling, a loyalty program and by providing a discount voucher for completing market research distributed around the market place. Additionally ‘Berried’ offers a raffle that is automatically entered when consumers make a purchase at ‘Berried’. The success/effectiveness of the promotional strategies will then be assessed through post purchase surveys regarding customer satisfaction and how they heard about the stall to be distributed via social media between market days. |

The business plan ‘Quality Training’ has been implemented for the purpose of providing high quality training to clients to improve the productivity and performance of participants. To analyse the business plan, we will be assessing the report in its relevant sections. Firstly, the cover sheet identifies the key element of the business name. However, other relevant details such as the author – assumed to be the joint owners Michael Chapman and Elliot Berkley – contact details and a brief statement of the purpose have all been incorrectly omitted. Accordingly, it appears that the cover page of the report is not fulfilling its objective and providing the reader with a comprehensive understanding of the report when first viewed. Accompanying the cover sheet is the executive summary. The general purpose of executive summaries is to provide a comprehensive summary of the reports features, which can be read in isolation. Hence, the executive summary begins with summarising the main points of the business plan. However, this has been undertaken in an extensive and incoherent manner. The executive summary then proceeds to outline the objectives – written guide, intended audience, scope – then follows with the objectives of the overall company.
