Module 7 – homework help

Overview

A target audience is determined by understanding who your product or service appeals to and who is most likely to use those products or services. There are various forms of research that can assist in this determination, including Google Analytics, Facebook Audience, and multiple forms of consumer research including surveys, focus groups, and, importantly, learnings from your current customer base and profile. You have already been provided with the target audience for the theme park. Now it is time to move onto aligning your marketing research efforts to further connect with the target audience.

You have already worked on the strategic marketing plan template, which contains a plan to address the park reopening needs. The CMO now requires you to determine the needed marketing research effort and additional clear marketing strategies to connect with the target audience and their alignment with the vision, mission, and values of the global park organization. It will be critical to keep the organizational parameters of vision, mission, and values in mind as the strategies are determined and ultimately executed.

Prompt
