What you’ve and how did your strategies change
over time
Team E Notes
Our main objective is to increase the stock price!
Analyzing the available data and graphs our first decision was to eliminate the production of the SELF
product. It appears that under the BCG Analysis the SELF Product was a Dog. It had low market share
and sales volume. It was actually hurting the company’s overall balance sheet and profits. The target
market we decided to focus on was . The advertising budget stayed the same and price of the SELF went
down to $440 to increase demand for those target market and their price sensitivity. Some information
that came from the scorecard was that Team E has 34.9% in the Sonite Market. The Stock price Index
was 1000 base. The ROI is 2.87. Looking at both products the SEMI will stay the same with advertising,
price, sales force distribution. The sales force for both products stayed the same.
The Vodite potential market is the Buffs.
Our Decision 1:
Some of our goals were to adopt an optimal segmentation and positioning strategies,
1) Get rid of SELF (due to excess inventory)
Target: Singles, Others, and Buffs
Decrease Price, Advertising stays the same, Distribution Channels for sales force changed to Specialty
20, Dept. Store 30 (move more into the department store),
Next plan of action: Increase R&D product Vodite. (View page 67)
Advertising in MarkStrat Online is mainly used to build brand awareness and to inform customers about
its physical characteristics. Advertising can also be used to reposition a brand.
Our Decision 2:
Some of the results from our Decision 1 consisted of:
1) We were the only team that invested in R&D.
2) We are going to Shelve the PVERY
Research and Development for PVEIN
From the Semantic Scale:
Project specification for the Innovators
Autonomy: 67, Max. Frequency: 16, Diameter: 75, Design: 6, Weight: 75. Requested base cost: 325, and
allocated budget (K$) = 100 with the inclusion of the feasibility study.
Adjusting the SEMI, PROs and HE
PSEXY – New Product
Next Period is to hire more sales force for the new product…not innovator segment but eventually to the
followers.
Development and Branding
Customers make purchases depending on their perception on your brand. The perceptual map is a
valuable tool for visualizing brand positioning.
Two ways to reposition a product. 1) R&D 2) Increase advertising to change their perception
R&D success demands long-term opportunities.
Sale obsolete products in the retail stores before the discount stores at the transaction cost.
Decision 2 Results:
Increase 37.7% for Sonite.

Ended with zero inventory on both SELF and SEMI. We targeted the buffs for decision 2 and sold out.
SEMI went up about 5% in market share. SELF went down.
Stock price index is 1430.
Look at brand perception in Period 2 to Period 1 for change.
Decision 3: We will position the SEMI to take some of the market share of SOLD. Produce enough SELF
and SEMI to meet market demand. SOLD has more High Earners market share.
SEMi
How many units did we sell? 280,000 units is a 31.5 percent change.
SELF
VEIN
Target market is the innovators.
Decision 4:
PVEIN- Target Innovators. Not ready for launch.
PVEE2 – Target Followers. Not ready for launch.
Retire the SELF and release the SEXY. The SEXY will target singles. This market is increasing for next
period.
Target Pros and HE for the SEMI.
Target SEXY with singles. Brand production level (KU) will be 74. Will be priced at $309
Decision 4 Results:
We are currently number one in the market. The release of the SEXY has captured 26% of the market
share for the Sonite market. Team A and I has released a new Vodite product into the market. Things to
consider is that the slope of the line for Team A’s increased more than our Team E.
Vodite target the segment. Find out why their buying and then target them.
Decision 5:
SEXY. Production 265,000 units.
Continue to Target the Singles. Their segment continues to grow in the Sonite market.
Projected 189 units
We Will Decrease Advertising for the SEXY and increase production to capture the growing singles
market.
SEMI. Projected Sales 324 units and production. Target: Pros
Sonite Market is still growing for Singles and Others.
To capture the Others projected market. We will R&D the SEAS product. The Semantics is exactly what
the Others market wants. The R&D cost is $1910
VEIN. Target Innovators.
VEE2 Target Adopters.
VENM is currently in R&D.
VEER. Targeting Innovators
Decision 6
Products we are looking at today.
1) SEMI
-Professionals & High Earners
2) SEXY
-Singles
3) VENM
Early Adopters
4) VEGA

-Followers
In the Sonite Market there is an opportunity to meet the needs of for the Buffs.
5) VEE2 & VEIN
-Innovators
Some competitive advantage that we realize is that the VISA is currently capturing the Adopters market.
There is currently no one targeting the followers. It will be likely the followers will purchase what the
adopters buy.
Produce the SEAS 231,000 units created. Priced $197
Competitive
Information
Team I has gained the Vodite market with its
VISA market.
Slight decline in the Sonite Market, a
decrease of 2.5%
Current ROI in down by 33.4% from
the last period
Do we really need to purchase all the reports? It may be costing us alittle amount but again there is still
cost being incurred that is unneccesary

R&D

Later, we developed product based on the regression analysis
What will customers want two periods from now.
The design tools in Markstrat were utilized

SALES ALLOCATION
Originally, we tried to guess the best allocation
Larger number of products - More Complexity
Designed a tool to allocate sales effort based on:
Forecasted segment size next period
Shopping habits
From 60 sales people in Period 0 to 278 in period 10
