marketing strategies target market value propositions marketingWe want students to help us build a marketing strategy plan to grow and engage our target market: oarents and kids. We’d like to know how we can maximize use of different channels and get recommendations to improve our messaging.
The main questions we’d like students to help us answer are the following:
- How do customers and students currently perceive our brand and marketing, based on publicly available information about our company?
- What channels should we utilize for promotion, including ones we are not currently using?
- What budget is appropriate for advertising, given our goals?
- How could our messaging be updated to better explain our value proposition?
