(Mintel – Sports Clothing, November 1998) Many of the trends that were obvious in 1995 have
become more determined. Some of the most important between these are the increasing influence of
fashion over the youth market and the heightened interest in active lifestyles. Whether they are
actually participating or not, being seen to be wearing active gear is highly desirable for the 15–24
year old age group. An older market, people who are 'staying younger longer' and leading more
active lifestyles, is also increasingly embracing outdoor sportswear. (Mintel – Sports Clothing,
November 1998) Mintel estimates sales of sports clothing to be worth some £2 billion in 1998,
although much of this is dependent on the youth market. As the youth population (15–24 year olds)
is forecast to increase by 3.5% by 2002, the core market will be larger and sustainable growth will
be easier to achieve. The older generation is on the increase as the 'baby boom' population bubble
ages. However, very little of the sportswear on offer from the leading manufacturers is designed for
older age groups or tastes. (Mintel – Sports Clothing, November 1998) In the sports market the
leading brands are quite a lot. A big number of those leading brands still dominate the sports
clothing market. However, with the increasing fashionability of sports clothing many traditional
fashion labels are making inroads in the sports leisurewear market. Particularly those that have

Question 1 – Describe the Marketing Process
Marketing is defined as an organizational function and a set of processes for creating,
communicating and delivering value to customers and for managing customer relationships in ways
that benefit the organization and its stakeholders. McDonald's is one of the most widely recognized
brands in the world and its effective market planning is one of the factors that have lead to its

Marketing Plan For A Marketing Strategy
Marketing plans are essential to businesses and companies in terms of coming up with a meticulous
plan to market and advertise products, such as food brands you would see on supermarket shelves.
For example, marketing and advertising highly revolves around a marketing plan as it plays an
important role in organising and facilitating a marketing campaign (Kotler et al., 2009). Marketing
plans consist of multiple different components/sections which, when put together form the overall
plan as a whole. The overall goal of a marketing plan is to convey the best possible course of action
a business or company can take to ensure a successful market and how it can be done and sustained
for a period of time (Westwood, 2006). The plan will be broken down into sections and described
and explained throughout this report. The barriers of marketing plans will also be explored, and food

Marketing Plan
A marketing plan is a comprehensive blueprint which outlines an organization 's overall marketing
efforts. A marketing process can be realized by the marketing mix, which is outlined in step 4. The
last step in the process is the marketing controlling.
The marketing plan can function from two points: strategy and tactics (P. Kotler, K.L. Keller). In
most organizations, "strategic planning" is an annual process, typically covering just the year ahead.
Occasionally, a few organizations may look at a practical plan which stretches three or more years
ahead.
To be most effective, the plan has to be formalized, usually in written form, as a formal "marketing

Market data and miscellany – From market research, who would in most cases act as a source for
this information. His sources of data, however, assume the resources of a very large organization. In
most organizations they would be obtained from a much smaller set of people (and not a few of
them would be generated by the marketing manager alone).
It is apparent that a marketing audit can be a complex process, but the aim is simple: "it is only to
identify those existing (external and internal) factors which will have a significant impact on the
future plans of the company." It is clear that the basic material to be input to the marketing audit
should be comprehensive.
Accordingly, the best approach is to accumulate this material continuously, as and when it becomes
available; since this avoids the otherwise heavy workload involved in collecting it as part of the
regular, typically annual, planning process itself – when time is usually at a premium.
Even so, the first task of this annual process should be to check that the material held in the current
facts book or facts files actually is comprehensive and accurate, and can form a sound basis for the
marketing audit itself.
The structure of the facts book will be designed to match the specific needs of the organization, but

Importance And Importance Of Marketing Plan
Importance of Marketing Plans: An Introduction Marketing plans are critical to the success of any
business organization as they help achieve company goals by providing guidance, instruction, and
structure to an organization. Effective marketing plans are crucial to the success of all companies
large and small. Marketing plans, may look different depending on the size and scope of the

company and its employees. It organizes valuable information about the product and target markets.
An effective plan transforms the marketing strategy into calculated procedures to achieve company
objectives. Without a marketing plan confusion can ensue because information is not properly
relayed and there is little consistency.

Strengths And Weaknesses Of A Marketing Plan
3.1)
A marketing plan is a business document outlining your marketing strategy and tactics (Westwood,
2004). Marketing planning helps you develop products and services in your business that meet the
needs of your target market. Good marketing helps your customers understand why your product or
service is better than, or different from, the competition. Also, a good marketing plan can help you
reach your target audience, boost your customer base, and ultimately, increase your bottom line. It's
often required when seeking funding and helps you set clear, realistic and measurable objectives for
your business. (Russell, 2010)

Market share is how much of the market a business, product or brand has relative to the total
market. Market share is expressed in terms of percentage and is calculated by dividing either the
total sales or volume of a business, product or brand by the combined total sales or volume of all its
competitors. When developing marketing strategies, forecasts and product development, many
underlying factors must be examined to understand how market share is influenced. (Stimpson and
Farquharson, 2015)
Efficiency ratios: The efficiency ratio is typically used to analyze how well a company uses its
assets and liabilities internally. An efficiency ratio can calculate the turnover of receivables, the
repayment of liabilities, the quantity and usage of equity, and the general use of inventory and
machinery. This ratio can also be used to track and analyze the performance of commercial and
investment banks. (Stimpson and Farquharson, 2015)
Cost–profitability analysis: Companies try to increase sales and profits by expanding services,
reducing costs, and shifting channel strategies, but they ignore the impact each of these drivers have
on gross margins. Analyzing the magnitude of these drivers makes it much easier to see what's
happening, pushing aside opinions for facts and developing actionable plans to maximize profits.

Marketing Plan For A Marketing Strategy
A marketing plan is crucial to the survival of an organization. Marketing plans need to be well
thought out and target a certain market. The market that an organization chooses will demonstrate
what direction they want the organization to head in. However, choosing just one market will be
problematic to the organization because they will be missing out on other opportunities to grow. The
organization needs to operate like the old sane, kill two birds with one stone. Therefore, if an
organization can effectively and efficiently provide a quality marketing strategy; the organization
will be able to grow vertically and horizontally. An organization can only grow if the company's
philosophy is based on long term ideas and not short term. A marketing campaign seems like a short
term idea to achieve finical goals. However, a successful marketing campaign will be based on long
term goals. Long term thinking is the only way an organization can instill trust and loyalty in the
customer/patient. Once trust and loyalty is adopted by the consumer, the organization will begin to
operate as long term thinking organization. Superior health philosophy is based on long term goals
that promote longevity to the community and the organization as a whole. Currently Superior health

Moreover it should convincingly highlight upon the product's USP. What is said is definitely
important but what is more important is how it is said. The tone should be appealing. Words used
should be catchy and retentive (memorable). These days both electronic as well as print media are
overflowing with ads. People have no time to read or see them, and therefore they have to be
attractive enough to catch the target audience's attention. This is the job of message.
PUBLIC RELATIONS
It must also take Public relations proactively. Organizations also have relationships––within their
"family" of employees and with communities, governments, consumers, investors, and the media.
Organizational theorists call these groups' strategic constituencies. Public relations theorists call
them stakeholders or publics. Strategic constituencies or publics make up the environment of an
organization. These publics can support or oppose the goals of an organization. They also want
organizations to pursue goals that are important to them but not necessarily to the organization––
such as jobs for workers, safe products, less pollution, and a safe community. Publics have a stake in
organizations, and they attempt to influence the missions

Introduction stage: "Just Passin' Thru" is a new concept, this is something new that is introduced to
the market, therefore, it will take some time for the customers to take used to this new concept. Our
goal will be to achieve a breakeven point in the second year after opening the store and become
profitable in the third year of being in this business. In the first year, our profits will be low, due to
low sales and high distribution, inventory, marketing and advertising and sales expenses. Marketing
expenses will be very high in the first year. We have to inform the customers about this new product
and get the consumers to try out this new concept. It will take "Just passin' Thru" some time to build

We will determine the strategy, the pricing, and the target market. There are no big grocery chains
competing in this segment, making it hard for our company to keep up with them. Another
advantage that we will have is a low capital investment to start up. This is due to the fact that we
will only have low levels of inventory to satisfy the daily demand. We will operate an efficient "just
in time' inventory systems which will ensure that all our products will have the always fresh
guarantee and that our perishable products will not go bad due to a lack of demand for that
perishable product. Another strength is the size of our market. Just like fast food chains like Mc
Donalds, Burger King, Taco Bell, Subway, Quizno's, etc. we have a huge target market potential.
There are millions of people just waiting for our stores to open, and we know that we will barely be
able to satisfy the demand and the sales volume in the first year. We will not have a huge overhead
to worry about because we will have a 50% of the employees of the usual store, and we will operate
our store more cost efficient, because the interior of our stores does not have to be flashy in order to
impress customers, since they will not be walking into the store to purchase items, they will just

In many businesses, marketing needs to be a core concern, and often the overriding concern when it
comes to running a successful business. The Marketing Department is responsible for
communications to their customers, consumers and referral sources. It is responsible for ensuring
continuity and consistency in the presentation of the business brand. It is responsible for the
development and placement of advertisements (print and broadcast), all collateral materials
(including brochures, posters, fliers, stationery, business cards, signage, consumer and physician
newsletters and publications and the development and maintenance of the consumer website, or
organization.) It coordinates the organization's participation in various community events including
job fairs and involvement with charitable organizations. The Marketing Department works with the
Centers of Excellence and select programs within the company's system to develop marketing plans
and coordinate the activities outlined in the plans.

The Marketing Plan
Developing a Marketing plan
As with any business venture, your entry into international markets should be well planned. A
detailed marketing plan should be developed to provide a blueprint for your marketing activities.
Whether you are a small family run attraction or an international airline, the principles for a
marketing plan are the same. The purpose of marketing is to match the right product to the right
market, providing an optimum return on investment. It is more than just advertising.
Essentially there are four elements (the four P's) of marketing: product, price, place and promotion.
A good marketing plan incorporates a combination of these elements.

Understanding your consumer target markets will guide the development of your product, how you
price your product in the marketplace, where you offer your product for sale and how you promote
your product to consumers.
Consumer characteristics such as age, socio economic background, lifestyle choices and personal
values, as well as identification of their key needs, will further define those consumers who may be
interested in your product.
Targeting particular countries or market segments enables you to more effectively tailor your
product and your marketing and promotional activities. Many travel and tourism products make the
mistake of trying to appeal to all markets and all people. When dealing in the international markets,
it is impossible to be all things to all people. Don't try to enter every market at once, select your
markets carefully and take the time to plan your approach. Plan your strategy carefully, allocating
your resources to the most appropriate markets which will generate the greatest return.
Consider the following points when selecting a target market and consumer segment:
> What does the consumer (or market) want?
> What can I provide to meet the consumer's needs?
> What is the size of the market?
> Is the market large enough to support the marketing costs required? Will I receive a return on

4. Within ten years, expand Bagels by the Bay to two locations, such as 7th Avenue in Three
Harbors, and either the towns of Beaver Bay or Silver Bay. 5. Sell high quality meals at an
affordable price.
Competitive Advantage
Bagels by the Bay's most obvious competitive advantage is its product line. The menu consists of
healthy, low–fat choices of different sandwiches, soups, and salads. These are items that the other
fast food restaurants do not offer. To ensure the exceptional product line, Bagels by the Bay focuses
on using top–quality ingredients in its products. Customer service and satisfaction is also a high
priority. Another competitive advantage is that Bagels by the Bay is locally owned and operated
unlike many of the franchises that have moved into Three Harbors, such as Hardees, McDonalds,
Burger King, and Subway. Location is another key factor of that provides an edge over competitors.
The Bagels by the Bay location is readily visible, easy to get to, and in the middle of a high traffic
zone during the tourist season.
One additional competitive advantage for the restaurant will be the unique ambiance that is

Marketing Planning : The Marketing Plan Essay
To attract mixed segment ther is need to marketing planning is indeed the key to the whole
marketing process. The marketing objectives state just where the company intends to be; at some
specific time in the future. James Quinn succinctly defined objectives in general as: "Goals state
'what ' is to be achieved and 'when ' results are to be accomplished, but they do not state 'how ' the
results are to be achieved.
They typically relate to what products will be where in what market. They are essentially about the
match between those "products" and "markets." Objectives for pricing, distribution, advertising and
so on are at a lower level, and should not be confused with marketing objectives. They are part of
the marketing strategy needed to achieve marketing objectives.
To be most effective, objectives should be capable of measurement and therefore "quantifiable."
This measurement may be in terms of sales volume, money value, market share, percentage
penetration of distribution outlets and so on. An example of such a measurable marketing objective
might be "to enter the market with product Y and capture 10 per cent of the market by value within
one year." As it is quantified it can, within limits, be unequivocally monitored; and Corrective
Action|corrective action taken as necessary.
The marketing objectives must usually be based, above all, on the organization 's financial
objectives; converting these financial measurements into the related marketing measurements.

Strategic Objectives
Build – Hold – Harvest – Divest.
Strategic objectives are, in general, externally focused and (according to the management guru Peter
Drucker) fall into eight major classifications:
(1) Market standing: desired share of the present and new markets;
(2) Innovation: development of new goods and services, and of skills and methods required to
supply them; (3) Human resources: selection and development of employees;
(4) Financial resources: identification of the sources of capital and their use;
(5) Physical resources: equipment and facilities and their use;
(6) Productivity: efficient use of the resources relative to the output;
(7) Social responsibility: awareness and responsiveness to the effects on the wider community of the
stakeholders;
(8) Profit requirements: achievement of measurable financial well–being and growth.
Comparative analysis is done through benchmarking. There are 3 types of benchmarking:
External, internal and best in class benchmarking
Core Strategy
A core strategy in a marketing plan is a way of deciding on what elements to buy more, which ones
to hold on to, and which ones to sell. Most marketing plans face a number of frustrations and the

It is apparent that a marketing audit can be a complex process, but the aim is simple: "it is only to identify those existing (external and internal) factors which will have a significant impact on the future plans of the company."

Even so, the first task of this annual process should be to check that the material held in the current facts book or facts files actually is comprehensive and accurate, and can form a sound basis for the marketing audit itself.

Market share is how much of the market a business, product or brand has relative to the total market. Market share is expressed in terms of percentage and is calculated by dividing either the total sales or volume of a business, product or brand by the combined total sales or volume of all its competitors. When developing marketing strategies, forecasts and product development, many underlying factors must be examined to understand how market share is influenced. (Stimpson and Farquharson, 2015) Efficiency ratios: The efficiency ratio is typically used to analyze how well a company uses its assets and liabilities internally. An efficiency ratio can calculate the turnover of receivables, the repayment of liabilities, the quantity and usage of equity, and the general use of inventory and machinery. This ratio can also be used to track and analyze the performance of commercial and investment banks. (Stimpson and Farquharson, 2015) Cost–profitability analysis: Companies try to increase sales and profits by expanding services, reducing costs, and shifting channel strategies, but they ignore the impact each of these drivers have on gross margins.
