Assessment Task 1(writer Report)
Marketing plan
Assessment description
Promotional activities must be undertaken for any products or services. The success or failure of the promotion often hinges on the research and planning that has preceded the promotion.
In this assessment, you must identify a product or service that you would like to promote. You must identify an audience for the promotion and develop a marketing strategy for the promotion based on marketing principles.
Finally, you must prepare a presentation (using PowerPoint) that summarises your strategy and proposed plan, and present this to your peers for review and feedback.
You can choose to do a promotion for any product or service, but keep in mind that in Assessment Tasks 2 and 3 you will need to access and obtain feedback from your target market. So be sure to have access to the market that you choose.
Tip: A product or service that is targeted at your peer group (students) will ensure that you have easy access to a target market for surveys, interviews, promotions and presentations.
Procedure/Instructions
1. Identify a product or service that you will promote.
2. Seek approval for this proposed product or service as appropriate for this assessment task by your facilitator/assessor.
3. Analyse the product and service and the proposed market for it.
4. Develop a plan for promoting the product or service based on this analysis.
5. Conduct a ten-minute in-class presentation where you explain your marketing plan, seek feedback and take questions from the group.
Assessor will provide further instructions in class room on completing assessment tasks which will clearly outline all requirements in more detail and simplistic way according to your understanding level. You may also request your trainer for additional information and may seek help with summarising of all instructions.
Option 1: Assessor as observer
The assessor can observe the learner conducting the presentation via a video conferencing tool.
Procedure:
1. Meet with the assessor on Skype at the scheduled time and conduct the presentation.
2. The learner is to perform their presentation with the assessor observing. Participants in the presentation can include friends, family, local club members, workmates, and so on.
3. Supplementary information or a follow-up interview may be required (at the discretion of the assessor).
Option 2: Video of the presentation
The presentation may involve skills that are too active or complex for video conferencing. This might involve skills or demonstrations of complex tasks.
