objective of a marketing strategy is to allow the company to carry out its mission effectively
and also efficiently.
SP PRINTING business operates more on satisfying the needs of the customers. In
this business, we are dealing with thousands of different opinions and expectations from all
kind of individual. We need to satisfy vary groups of people on beyond their needs and
expectation.
In order to pursuit and compete with others competitors, we came out with a strong
marketing tools plus cost effective tools on marketing such as social media and physical tools
such as banner and flyers. In addition, we also made this proper and effective plan in order to
gain confidence from both suppliers and the customer towards our quality of the product and
services.
However, in the business we need more alliances to support and back up our
businesses. SP Printing has strategic alliances with FAC Printing. These alliances are
valuable to us because they will allow the company to sharing the knowledge and resources
of these firms with no additional cost to the business.

The marketing strategy consists of four key variables, also known as the 4Ps of marketing.

material has been used and neat stitching. Furthermore, our product has many different
brands for a single type of product.

For example, we has six brand for T–shirt round neck such as Immaculate, Nice Apparel,
Foursquare, Gildan, Orensport and Erzo. With these various brand, it will attract more
customers to visit our outlet.

3.7.2 Price Strategy

We are use price strategy as a main strategy in order gain market share and capture attention
from our customer. For example, we offer coupon discount and lucky draw to the regular
customer monthly to encourage them to repeat order and become a loyal to us.
