Implementation process
• Good implementation process spells out the activities to
•
•
•
•
be implemented
Which activities to be implemented – mostly driven by the
tactical mix elements of the plan
How the implementation will be done
The time and location of the implementation
Who will be responsible for the implementation
10
© 2014
Implementing the plan – questions to be asked?
• Is the structure of the organisation capable of
•
•
•
•
implementing the strategy?
Are resources deployed effectively, and if not, can the
necessary changes be made?
Are managers suitably empowered to implement
changes?
Do organisational policies support the strategies?
Will staff members be affected by the strategy in such a
way that they might try to sabotage its implementation?

Use of established frameworks and templates
• A range of formats and process for producing plans:
• PR Smith’s SOSTAC® model and APIC process
• Templates are generally chosen that best fits the
organisational context
13

Marketing organisation, team management
• Advise for marketers developing an implementation plan:
o “Since some of these characteristics (of evaluating organisation
design) conflict with others, organisational design requires
looking at priorities and balancing conflicting consequences”
Cravens and Percy (2013)
o The overall organisational structure and dominant corporate
culture are important factors when designing the marketing
organisation and the implementation plan for the marketing
strategy
14

Strategy and organisational structure
• Is the structure capable of implementing the ideas?
• Are resources deployed effectively within the
organisation?
• Are managers suitably empowered?

There are a number of different types
of organisational structures used
and choosing the right one is important.......
Transportation
Staff
Organisations require systems and
processes for all of their operations
(gathering marketing intelligence,
developing the product mix,
communicating value propositions
etc..)
Administration

Systems and processes
Refers to all the resources and structures
that are needed in order for marketing

Definitions
“the pattern of relationships among
positions in the organisation and
among members of the organisation.
Structure makes possible the
application of the process of
management and creates a framework
of order and command through which
the activities of the organisation can
be planned, organised, directed and
controlled.” (Mullins, 1999)
© 2014
(Mintzberg, 1983) defines an
organisation as “the sum total of the
ways in which it divides its labour into
distinct tasks and then achieves coordination among them.”
“Organisations are as different and
varied as nations and societies of the
world. They have differing cultures sets of values, norms and beliefs reflected in different structures and
systems. And the cultures are affected
by events of the past and the climate
of the present, by the technology of
the type of work, by their aims and
the type of people who work in
them.” (Charles Handy, 1993)

Flexible and adaptive organisation
Burns & Stalker (1961)
o Mechanistic & organic forms of organisation
• Stable, efficient and suitable for slow-changing operating environments
•
(mechanistic or “machine-like” organisations; also called
“bureaucracies”
Flexible, adaptive and suitable for fast-changing or dynamic operating
environments (organic or “organism-like” organisations)
21

Flexible and adaptive organisation
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Functional flexibility (multidisciplinary, Multi-skilling)
Numerical flexibility - (Handy, 1989), The Shamrock Organisation
Informal organisation – loosely structured & spontaneous
Flat structures – the flattening of hierarchies
Horizontal structures – functional versatility
“Jobless” structures – employability a range of skills
Boundary less structures – horizontal barriers are removed or
softened by de-layering
Ad hocracy (not bureaucratic) – temporary, adaptive, creative

Agile project management
• Is one of the revolutionary methods introduced for the practice of
project management.
• Emphasis is on the fact that entire team (scrum) should be a tightly
integrated unit. This includes the product owner – who sets goals
and priorities, Scrum master – who works with the team to prioritise
the individual task and acts as trouble maker
• Frequent communication is one of the key factors that make this
integration possible. Agile project teams follow open communication
techniques and tools including self-managing.
• Deliveries are short-term. Usually a delivery cycle ranges from one
week to four weeks. These are commonly known as sprints.
26

Action priority matrix
• Is a simple technique that helps you choose which
activities to prioritise (and which ones you should drop)
• By choosing activities intelligently, you can make the very
most of your time and opportunities.
• By choosing badly, you can quickly bog yourself down in
low-yield, time-consuming projects that close down
opportunities and stop you moving forwards.

the strategy – resulting in a flexible and responsive
organisation.
• Therefore internal marketing needs to be included in
strategic marketing plans
36
© 2014
Internal marketing
• Is the use of a marketing approach in the internal
environment of the organisation, whose employees are
seen as customers who have to “buy in to” management
ideas.
• It also embodies a variety of approaches and techniques
to acquire and motivate customer-conscious employees

of a common strategy, which
is communicated and
coordinated across all major
areas of the organisation
The budgeting process

The purpose of budgeting
Objectives of budgetary planning – PRIME
• Planning – most important feature as managers can see potential
threats or opportunities
• Responsibility - objectives are set and managers of budget centres
are made responsible
• Integration and coordination – Activities need to be coordinated to
ensure maximum integration of effort
• Motivation – Commitment of employees can be encouraged through
communication and feedback
• Evaluation and control – Evaluating the performance of the budget
holder
44
© 2014
Approaches to budget setting
A statement of desired performance expressed in financial
terms and never unlimited
• Top down budgets – set on high and passed down the
organisation
• Bottom-up budgets – set further down the organisation
and passed up for approval
45
© 2014
The financial approach…
• Tends to be a top down model
• Total marketing spend is often determined at the outset
and then broken down into discrete activities
• It is important that the marketing manager is able to
express their intended outcomes in terms that indicate a
direct contribution: Increase to sales, positive cash
inflows, return on investment, growth in customer value
46

5.3 Learning outcomes
• Identify and assess the risks, implications and issues from
the implementation of a marketing strategy
49
© 2014
Risk assessment
• Political – within an organisation or outside of it e.g. the
•
•
•
•
•
defection of a key supplier
Social – Media or pressure groups can pose risks to strategy
Physical – issues such as distribution resources or plant and
equipment affected by disaster such as fire
Technical – Systems failures
Labour – loss of key staff
Legal – Actions by customers or other connected stakeholders
to seek redress through the courts
50
© 2014
Action evaluation
•
•
•
•
•
How likely is it that the risk will show itself?
Can we control it in any way?
What will happen if this risk occurs?
How can we control it in the least damaging way?
Strategies:
o Avoidance – eliminate or not be involved
o Reduction – optimise, limit , mitigate
o Sharing – transfer or outsource to third party
o Retention – accept, plan on dealing with any incidence and budget
accordingly
51

Contingency planning
• A series of milestones and activities to bring the strategy
•
•
•
•
plan back on track
Key personnel who need to be involved with clear details
of roles and responsibilities
Details of the plan will be tested
Coverage of any additional training staff
Details of how the plan will be updated as the risk it is
designed to mitigate changes
52

Stakeholder analysis
• One of the biggest risks to execute a strategy is politics inside and
•
•
•
•
•
•
outside the organisation.
Powerful stakeholders can derail strategies
Therefore important to categorise stakeholders e.g. the seven
markets model also consider classifications:
Economic stakeholders
Social/political stakeholders
Technological stakeholders
Community stakeholders

Directly changeable aspects of implementation
Aspect
Explanation and examples
Organisation
structure
The hierarchy of the organisation can be redrawn with new posts created or old ones removed.
The informal structure will remain intact, insofar as the individual staff remain employed under
the new structure
Management
systems
Information systems, feedback systems and control mechanisms (e.g. rewards and sanctions
offered to staff) will need to be changed carefully, and with consultation
Policies and
procedures
Procedures are often the easiest aspects to change and therefore are often the first aspects
which the less competent manager will address
Action plans and
short-term
budgets
Action plans outline the tactics to be used to achieve the strategy. Tactics are easy to change.
Short-term budgets can also be altered with relatively little difficulty
Management
information
systems
The methods by which management is fed information affect the type of information that is
supplied. Changes in the information system will inevitably impact on future strategic decision
making.

Marketing performance measurement
•
•
•
•
The use of marketing metrics is vital for any healthy
business & the prime reasons:
To evaluate success (or failure) of marketing plans
To rectify and implement corrective actions
To assist future decision making and planning
To provide a convincing and strong rationale for a
marketing plan for the board
66

Finance measure/control ratios
• Measure value added in four ways (McDonald & and
Wilson, 2011:
o Value-chain analysis – looking at cost sand outputs in
comparison wit competitors
o Shareholder value added (SVA)
o Customer value – looking at customer satisfaction and loyalty
measures
o Accounting value – the results and ratios from the annual
accounts and quarterly updates
67

Accounting
•
•
•
•
Accounting measures of marketing performance reflect the
financial impact that its activities have:
Profit and loss – the impact of incomes earned and costs
incurred
Balance sheets – the impact on assets and liabilities
Cash flows – the impact on money moving into and out of the
organisation
Budgetary controls – the impact on the monitoring and
management of income and expenditure
68
© 2014
Accounting measures
• The interpretation of financial data
o Published accounts - Financial health
o Management accounting
o Prudence concept - assets and income are not overstated and liabilities
and expenses are not understated.
• Understand the impact of marketing decisions on the finances of
•
•

KPIs
• Key performance indicators help an organisation to define
and measure progress toward organisational goals
• Are quantifiable measurements agreed beforehand that
reflect critical success of an organisation
• E.g. KPI for a business might be the % of its income
coming from returning customers
• A customer service department might have a KPI that
says a % of customer calls must be answered within a
minute
72

Marketing Dashboard
• A good dashboard consists of three layers
o Strategic level - Monitors and measures performance against
business outcomes and marketing objectives
o Operational level - Tracks performance of core marketing
strategies and processes
o Tactical level - Analyzes performance at project or activity
level as they relate to the first two

Examples of basic marketing measures
• Market share – is the % of a market accounted for by a
specified product or organisation.
• Profitability – for marketing the difference between
gross and net profit and making comparisons between
products, brands, segments and customers
• Loyalty – customer retention is important and need to
be able to monitor

Advertising metrics - Reach, frequency, impact
• Reach – measure of percentage of people in target
market exposed to the ad campaign during a given period
of time
• Frequency – how many times the average person in the
target market is exposed to the message
• Impact – qualitative value of a message through a given
medium
79
© 2014
Media metrics
Planning Concept
Explanation
Reach
% of target audience exposed to message at least once during
relevant time period.
Frequency
No of times a member of target audience is exposed to a media
vehicle (not the advertisement) during relevant time period
Opportunity to See (OTS)
Even if a person has been exposed to a vehicle, doesn’t mean
they have seen an ad. OTS measures they have had the
opportunity to see it
Duplication
Targets exposed to 2 or more adverts carrying the same
message
Gross Rating Points (GRP)
Measure of the total no of OTS generated in a set period of
time. Simply reach x frequency = GRP
Effective frequency
No of times an individual needs to be exposed to an ad before
comms is effective

3 parts to brand equity
Feldwick, 1996
• Brand value - based on a financial and accounting base
• Brand strength - measuring the strength of a
consumer’s attachment to a brand
• Brand description - represented by the specific
attitudes customers have towards a brand

change in an incremental way to keep pace
Often driven by routine and processes built up over time
However if there is disruptive change in the external

specification (but on internal & external customers) – “user based
approach” and that 85% of quality problems were the result of
“ineffective systems”
Ishikawa (1991) – “Quality Circles” – the process of people
solving quality problems
Taguchi (1986) – Quality cost model – costs of quality
