competition.
When assessing the competition, specify the exact company and
particular product or service you are competing against. For example,
Coca Cola offers a portfolio of products, such as water, fruit juice,
and cola. Are you competing against Coca Cola’s fruit juice product? Or
its cola product? Be sure to detail your plan to differentiate yourself from the competition. Outline the company’s value proposition and create a marketing slogan/tagline for the product.
The value proposition tells your customers why they want to do business with you. You need to know what message you want to convey in your
marketing slogan before selecting the marketing vehicles in the next
step. Specify the marketing vehicles you will use to build your chosen
company’s brand and justify the key reasons they will be effective.
