A well written marketing plan upon which an organization can execute is the concluding project for this course. Your marketing plan will be based on a real life, publicly traded company. You will take on the role of CHIEF MARKETING OFFICER for this company. In your new "job" you will conduct a SWOT analysis based on public information, develop a list of ORIGINAL marketing recommendations, and selecting one recommendation, write implementation plan, including follow up metrics. You may consider a marketing plan on any of the following topics
- Introduction of a new product
- Introduction of a new service
- Expanding an existing product to an entirely new buyer segment
- Expanding an existing product to an entirely new geographic market
This is NOT a research paper that documents the current marketing activities of your target firm.
