Marketing Plan
Our marketing strategy will focus on four segments. Those segments are described in the following subtopics. We will implement a strategy that treats customers as a community. This means our marketing resources will be centered around advertising both sales promotions (events) and personal sales (customer service, friendly atmosphere).
- The marketing budget will not exceed $6,000 per year.
- Marketing promotions will be consistent with the Mission Statement and support the following objectives:
- 100% customer satisfaction, measured through repeat customers, referrals and surveys.
- To achieve a respectable profit margin within the first three-years.
- To achieve a healthy net profit by year two.
Students will include high school and college age students who need a safe and economical car. This group is concerned with price, flashy looks, and being cool. These drivers tend to be less educated and will buy on impulse paying more for less car. They will also buy cars more often than others, on average every two to three years.
The retired group will focus on practicality. Cost may be less important than quality and features. This group wants comfortable, nicely equipped vehicles at a reasonable price. They will want a vehicle that will last for years.
Families will focus on safe, practical vehicles. Something that will last for years, can fetch groceries, carry the kids, and perform long trips. Many will be on a budget, and price may be a big factor. They will shop around and educate themselves on vehicles, shopping for a specific make or model.
The last group is the singles. They are similar to the students in that they want flashly cool cars, but may be a working professional who can afford to pay more for a higher-quality vehicle.
Sales Plan
Sales compensation is based on a percent of profits. We will invest adequate time and resources into training each member of the sales team and into good customer relations. Salesmen will be paid a portion of their salary based on commission. Good performance is rewarded with increased commission and bonuses. However integrity will not be sacrificed for sales. Customer satisfaction will continue to be a top priority. All potential sales will be attended to in a timely fashion and long-term salesperson-customer relationships will take precedence over sales closure.
