facility, opening times

and what do they want to buy?
How might you find out this
information?
• What other new products is the
Club planning to offer?
Price

Should we reduce the price at the start to
attract interest? Can we charge different
prices to different customers?
Promotion

people about its products?
• Where should it advertise
to attract the attention of its
key customers.
• Should it give free samples
or run a competition?
Place
• How can the Club distribute its products?
• Should it sell direct to its customers or
through retailers, or both?
• How could the internet help the Club to
sell more?
• Where would be the best location for the
Club to set up a retail business?
Task 3 Recap – Planning and
Conducting Market Research
Your task is to produce a marketing plan using the ‘4 Ps’
(Price, Place, Product, Promotion and People). Your plan

must decide on how this will shape the following (P5),
justifying each section (M4):

marketing plan, identifying possible areas for improvement
