Marketing Plan for The Bank of Cancer Research.

You are required to undertake this assessment individually.

Aim: The objective of this assignment is:

• To enable you to understand marketing strategy and the elements of marketing analysis: customer analysis, company analysis and competitor analysis.
• To assist you with evaluating the elements of the marketing mix (product, pricing, promotion, and distribution strategies)
• To enhance your problem solving techniques and decision making skills by learning how to leverage strategic marketing analysis
• To inform tactical marketing mix decisions while allowing you to consider a comprehensive framework to evaluate marketing decisions and to create successful planning initiatives.
• To expand your knowledge in the area of marketing strategy and STP (segmented Target and positioning while increasing your awareness of the different strategic and tactical alternatives that are available
• To be able to identify and act on sustainable, social and ethical concepts required in planning.
• You will need to evidence a review of at least three organisations (Australian and international) that you consider to offer a closely comparable value-proposition and from which you believe illustrations of 'good-practice' can be drawn
• A major and very important requirement is that you strongly link marketing theories and concepts to the issues identified in the organization.

Theory provides the framework from which to look at and understand the assignment question and to provide a perspective for examining the research data.  The text and lectures provides the basic theory about marketing and the terms used such as an explanation of the marketing environment.

Students should aim to start thinking about the marketing theory they have been learning about and to begin using that marketing perspective to better understand specific Consumer Products and organisations that are operating in the marketplace.
