Assessment Description
The purpose of this assessment is to provide students with an opportunity to practice formulating feasible international market entry strategies by developing an appropriate international marketing mix in recognition of global opportunities.
Assessment Instructions
Presume that based on the work you have produced in the second assessment, the company has decided to introduce its business in France. In recognition of your diligent efforts, they have now tasked you to develop an international marketing plan to assist them with their business decision-making to enter this country.
In preparing this plan, you must research the recommended country’s market to determine the basis for market segmentation and propose three suitable target segments. Based on this, you are then required to configure the marketing mix to position the product in the recommended country’s market and explore a suitable market entry strategy.
The proposed plan must consider how best to differentiate the product from its direct/indirect competitors and respected cultural differences. As such, any relevant laws and regulations that should be considered before entering the country’s market must also be included in your plan. The findings presented in your plan must incorporate relevant theories/concepts that you have studied in this subject.
As you are preparing a professional marketing plan, please adhere to the following report structure in presenting your findings to the company:
• Title Page
• Introduction: a brief overview of the country and an outline of what you will cover in the plan (not included in the word count of your submission).
• Segmentation and Target Markets: an analysis of the market in France or China by identifying suitable target markets.
• Positioning: the proposal and justification of the product’s desired positioning within the French market.

o Price – What pricing strategies should be adopted and why? o Place – How will you get this product/service to customers, and why? o Promotion – What promotional activities will be undertaken, and why?
o Process – What processes are needed to get the product/service to customers? o People – What are the key people required for customer-facing activities?
o Physical Evidence – How do you reinforce the experience and why?

• Conclusion: a concise summary of the key findings that you’ve presented in the plan (not included in the word count of your submission).
