Know Where You Are Headed
• A marketing plan is a written component of
the overall business strategic plan that
addresses how the company will carry out the
core marketing standards.
• The marketing plan should reiterate the
company’s mission statement.
Know Where You Are Headed
• MISSION STATEMENT – identifies the nature
of the business and the reason it exists.

and services.
Sample Mission Statements

every athlete* in the world.”

win football games, serve our fans, and be a
positive force in the community.”

is a sports entertainment company dedicated to
winning NBA Championships, growing new
basketball fans, and providing superior
entertainment, value and service.”
A Sense of Direction
• Based upon the mission of a business, the
company selects products and services that
will differentiate it from the competition.
• The products and tactics should focus on a
TARGET group of customers rather than a
mass market.
– MASS MARKET  A broad group of people.
A Sense of Direction
• All the products a company has available for
customers at any one time make up the
PRODUCT PORTFOLIO.
• A product portfolio must be continually
renewed.
A Sense of Direction

the sales potential of a
new product is tried in
a regional, or
otherwise, small,
market prior to its final
release nationwide
and/or worldwide.
