This part provides an abstract of the whole marketing plan. The first part of the executive
summary should provide an introduction of the business, name of the business, where it is
located, and what are the main products it offers and their target customers. The marketers
should also indicate the main value proposition (marketing statement that a company uses to sum
up why a consumer should purchase their product or services) of the business.
The second part of the executive summary should include the background on why there is
a need to formulate a marketing plan for your chosen business. The marketing objectives and
goals should be clearly stated in this part. In this case, the main reason why the marketer made a
marketing plan for Baliwag Lechon Manok (Kiosk Type) is to improve how its products are
delivered to its customers particularly on the aspects of its location, physical environment and
people. Thus, the scope of this marketing plan will focus on these three aspects of the marketing
mix: place, physical environment and people.
Then, the marketers should explain in detail why these elements are chosen and the
strategies that they were able to develop from the SWOT analysis. It is best to highlight one to
three strategies. The marketers should also include a brief summary of the marketing budget and
how they plan to implement the said plan.
The last part of the executive summary is to explain the limitations of the marketing plan
and what are the possible contingency plans the marketers have if the marketing plan’s strategies
fail to meet the objectives.
In this section of the business plan, the marketers should first provide a brief introduction
of the business like how they presented it in the executive summary only that they have to
provide a detailed presentation of the business’ product offerings (or services) as well as the
current prices and specific promotional strategies (ex. Advertising). In relation to product
offerings, the marketer must highlight what are the main or flagship products (services) offered
by the firm and what makes these products standout compared to the other offerings that the firm
has.
Next, the marketer needs to provide information on the performance of the business in
terms of units of sale and the corresponding sales in peso. In addition, point out who the firm’s
competitors are and their product (service) and pricing methods. The marketer should provide a
brief comparison of how the firm is doing compared to its competitors in terms of product
(service) offerings, pricing, promotions, and distribution.
Then, the marketers should classify and identify who are the firm’s primary and
secondary target markets and what influence their buying behavior. For example, the primary
markets of Baliwag Lechon Manok based on its location are the residents living in the
subdivisions near the place of business such as Ana Ros Village, Sunshine Valley Subdivision,
and Sacred Heart Subdivision. The secondary market would be the passers-by who happen to
have an interest in buying lechon manok. Further discuss what influence their buying behaviors
based on the cultural, social, personal or psychological factors discussed in Chapter 3B.
