Hantz Group: A New Era of Financial Planning
$37.50MKTG 522 Marketing Plan Final Paper – Hantz Group: A New Era of Financial Planning
Objective
The Marketing Plan assignment gives you the opportunity to practice developing an integrated business and marketing strategy for a product or service of your choice. This activity will make the course “come alive” through the application of the principles from the textbook, course materials, and threaded discussions. Assignments such as this also help you develop business-oriented communication skills.
The development of the marketing plan is an integral part of the course, and will require several weeks of research, critical analysis, critical thinking, and writing. Past students tell us the only way to do well on this project is to begin early and work on it consistently throughout the entire course.
You have several options when choosing a product or service for your marketing plan. Consider choosing a new product for a new company (your own) or creating a new product for an existing company. Perhaps you would want to do a product extension of an existing product. You might consider a different approach to marketing an existing service. You can target consumers or businesses. You may choose a product or service offered by your employer or your own business, or one from another organization. Ultimately, to maximize your learning experience, choose a product or service in which you have an interest and about which you would like to see your product or service come to the marketplace. Make sure there is information available about the industry and target market of the product or service you choose.
Remember that this is a marketing plan and not a business plan; you are not creating a business, but you are creating the marketing plan for an existing product or service. Thus, your focus should not be on the company or its products, but on how to market the product or service that you have chosen. Provide enough background and history to put the marketing plan in perspective. Do a comprehensive SWOT analysis with an in-depth and candid look at your internal and external environments. Establish your goals and objectives. Analyze the information developed, and only then begin defining your target market and specifying the specific marketing strategies. Do not simply report on how a company markets its goods or services. Instead, you should explain what type of marketing you would propose.
Your instructor will look at your marketing plan from the point of view of a business proposal. Have you thought through and considered your options? Have you provided details of your proposal? Have you looked at the entire strategy, the “big picture,” while still considering the more operational elements that make for successful implementation? How well written and persuasive is the plan?
Guidelines
In developing your content, try to demonstrate clarity of thinking; understanding; an application of basic marketing principles; and a creative, but realistic, use of marketing tools. Explorations of your options and choices are an important part of the demonstration of your mastery of marketing concepts. There is seldom only one potential course of action in developing a real marketing plan; demonstrate that you have considered options and alternatives at each step in your plan and have chosen the best.
Please download and review the Marketing Plan Guide in Doc Sharing prior to beginning your marketing plan. Also, see the “Sonic Marketing Plan Example and Exercises” in the Appendix of your Kotler textbook. The questions asked in the exercises may help you further develop your marketing plan.

Testing product concept
$39.00MKTG 522 Final Exam 10
1. (TCO B) Your company has developed a new educational electronic game. Your target market is 4-6 year old children. What research methods would you use to test this product concept? Choose at least three methods that you believe will provide valuable information, and describe your research strategy. (Points : 25)
2. (TCO C) Michael Porter proposed a tool, the value chain, for identifying ways to create more value. According to the value chain model, every company is a combination of activities that are performed to design, produce, market, deliver, and support their products. Identify the types of activities that would create value within the organization. How can an organization use this tool? What makes this an effective approach? (Points : 25)
3. (TCO H) Marketers recognize that the marketing of services is different than the marketing of a product because of the different characteristics that distinguish them from physical products. How do marketers communicate the value of services to consumers? How do they make these intangible services appear tangible to the consumer?
What are some marketing strategies that might be employed with services to ensure positive results? In your answer, provide an example of a service to which your strategies would be utilized. (Points : 25)
4. (TCO D) Your company manufactures a quality line of home kitchen appliances, refrigerators, stoves, dishwashers, and so forth, and you are highly competitive with companies such GE, Frigidaire, KitchenAid, Whirlpool, LG, and others. The market is quite price sensitive.
You’ve just learned that your primary competitor has cut their prices to the consumer by 7%. What might be some reasons that would support their decision to make a price reduction? What should be your thoughtful reaction? (Points : 25)
5. (TCO F) You are the Sales Manager for your company. Your sales team is one that, once they gain the initial sale, enjoys considerable repeat business. Sales reps are paid a base of $35K and their commission package can add as much as $49K a year (average). Top producers make as much as $65K a year in commission–along with their base pay, they make $100K.
Sales reps have not been aggressive in pursuing new business. They have become comfortable in making repeated sales calls on their existing customers “to be visible” and to handle any issues.
Your VP of Sales wants to see a 12% increase in NEW business next year. How might you structure the compensation plan to drive selling behaviors that would result in more effort being made to gain new business? (Points : 25)Page 2
1. (TCO E) As the marketing manager for the manufacturer of a new line of computer jump drives, what strategy would you use to get your channel members to promote your product? What is the difference between a Push marketing strategy and a Pull marketing strategy? Explain how you might use each of these strategies. (Points : 25)
2. (TCO I) When a company chooses their distribution channels, they must keep in mind that each channel member must be given the opportunity to be profitable. The main elements in the “trade-relations mix” are Price policy, Conditions of sale, Distributors’ territorial rights, and Mutual services and responsibilities. Explain how these terms of doing business can affect the profitability of all channel members. (Points : 25)
3. (TCO J) Discuss the importance of a company being seen by its public as “being ethical” in its marketing practices. What can a company do to ensure its marketers are practicing ethical marketing? (Points : 25)
4. (TCO A) Now that you have completed the Final Draft of your Marketing Plan, were you to begin anew, what would you have done differently insofar as your efforts to segment your TARGET MARKET and your efforts to reach that TARGET MARKET via your promotional mix? What would you have done differently?
Be sure to refresh your instructor’s mind by providing one sentence that communicates what your Marketing Plan brought to market. (Points : 25)
5. (TCO G) Sales Promotions offer consumers an incentive to buy. Name at least four different types of sales promotion tools, tell how you would use them, and provide an example of a type of product or service you would promote using this tool.
Failure to provide all of the requested information will result in a loss of points. (Points : 25)14 Pages
