MARKETING PLANOUTLINE
I. Strategic Situation Summary
Summarize the key points from your situation analysis (market analysis, segments, industry/competition) in order to recount the major events and provide information to better
understand thestrategies outlined in the marketing plan.
II. Market-Targets and Objectives
The market target may be defined demographically (key characteristics only), geographically, or in social/economic terms. Each market target should have needs and wants that differ to some degree from other targets. These differences may be with
respect to types of products purchased, use situation, frequency of purchase, and other variations that indicate a need to alter the positioning strategy to fit the needs and wants of each target. An objective is a quantified goal identifying what is expected when. It specifies
the end results expected. The objectives should be written for each target market. Objectives should also be included for the following program components: (1) product,
(2) price, (3) distribution, (4) promotion (salesforce, advertising, sales promotion, and public relations), and (5) technical services.

III. Positioning Statements
Write statements that describe how you want each market target to perceive each product relative to competition. State the core concept used to position the product (brand) in the eyes and
mind of the targeted buyer. The positioning statement should describe: (1) What criteria or benefits the customer considers when
buying a product along with the level of importance, (2) What we offer that differentiates our product from competition, and (3) The
limitations of competitive products.
