Guidelines On Sample Marketing Plan

By Tammie Caldwell


Profit is the reason why most firms venture into any business. There are many ways through which the firm can attain this which includes offering quantity discount, after sales services for example transport and also good pricing policy. Although the business might be able to provide all the above, it is not guaranteed to make profits. This is because the business markets its commodities affect directly how much of that commodity they will sell. How you present your commodities to the consumers will determine whether they will buy from you or not. This makes us put our focus on a sample marketing plan.

Your plan should be able to establish whom you are targeting to sell to. You should be able to know the composition of the population of your customer. Details such as gender, age, geographical location and also the gap that you intend to satisfy in their needs. This will ensure that supply will meet the demand in the market.

Developing a marketing budget is also a very crucial aspect of promoting the sales of your business. Outline how much the whole process will cost you and bend it when it is necessary to do so. However, returns on investment should inform you on what extent you can bend your budget.

Consider what effect your marketing activities have on your sale from time to time. This will inform you on whether the current plan is effective or not. Through this monitoring you will be able to adjust the proposal from time to time rather than sticking to a rigid one. This will ensure that your business is able to compete even with the changing tactics of marketing.

How your commodity will be distributed should also be outlined in your plan. You can decide whether the customer should buy from your website, through middlemen or your mobile shops. This will ensure that your product meets its intended gap in the market.

How you price the goods and service that you are producing will determine whether you will sell your commodity or not. This is because the price should be set in such a way that it takes care of the welfare of the customer. It should exceed the maximum willingness of the customer to pay for that particular good.

Annual evaluation of the marketing plans is also very crucial to any business that intends to establish whether it is effective. However, introduction of a new good or service will need revision of the current proposal and make necessary adjustment to promote the sales of the new good.

The reason why most private firms ventures into business is to generate revenue. However, due to existence of other firms offering similar product in the market, this becomes a challenging objective. This is why the firm has to come up with a strategy that will offer it a competitive advantage over the other firms in the market. Having a set out plan is a good thing.
