Vocational scenario

In your role as a Junior Marketing Analyst at the supermarket chain, you have been working hard on preparing the roll out for the new ‘Luxurious’ range of own-brand food products. This product line will be positioned in a distinctive and inviting way that

combines luxury, superior taste and value. Equally, the product line must sit comfortably with other regular and similar food products.

You now need to develop a compelling and creative marketing plan for the new product line. It must clearly articulate a bold marketing strategy and include tactical actions that are clearly aligned to the overall organisational objectives. Your marketing plan also needs to incorporate a media plan as part of the overall marketing campaign.
