Steps involved in developing a Marketing Plan Strategic marketing planning provides a mechanism for businesses to gain a clear picture of where the business is at present, and where it could be in future. There is no set format for developing a marketing plan. However, all plans should have two features in common. They should be: 1. Realistic in the light of situational analysis 2. Achievable within the business’s resources and budgets.

Situational (SWOT)Analysis  To develop a clear understanding of both the external and internal environments, a SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats) analysis should be conducted.  A SWOT analysis involves the identification and analysis of the internal strengths and weaknesses of the business and the opportunities in and threats from the external environment.

Product life cycle   The product life cycle consists of the stages a product passes through: introduction, growth, maturity and decline.   Many businesses start because of someone’s great idea to produce a product (a good or service) that is new and perhaps superior to what is available. From that tiny seed, a successful business may grow; but like all good things, there is eventually an end to the cycle.

Introduction stage   The business tries to increase consumer awareness and build a market share for the new product.   Product brand and reliability are established.   Price is often noticeably lower than competitors’ prices in order to gain a market foothold.   Promotion directed at early buyers and users occurs, and communications seek to educate potential customers about the merits of the new product.   Distribution is selective, which enables consumers to gradually form an acceptance of the product.

Growth stage   Brand acceptance and market share are actively pursued by the producers of the product.   Product quality is maintained and improved and support services may be added.   Price per unit of production is maintained as the firm enjoys increased consumer demand and a growing market share.   Promotion now seeks a wider audience.   Distribution channels are increased as the product becomes more popular.

Maturity phase   Sales plateau as the market becomes saturated:   Product features and packaging try to differentiate the product from those of competitors.   Price may need to be adjusted downwards to hold off competitors and maintain market share.   Promotion continues to suggest the product is tried and true — it’s still the best.   Distribution incentives may need to be offered to encourage preference over rival products.

Decline stage   Sales begin to decline as the business faces several options:   Product maintained with some improvements or rejuvenation. Cut the losses by selling it to another business.   Price is reduced to sell the remaining stock.   Promotion discontinued.   Distribution channels reduced and product offered to a loyal segment of the market only.
