Appendix A: Fusion Marketing Simulation
Simulation Background
Fusion Marketing is an innovative full-service marketing agency specialises in strategic thinking, marketing, branding, interactive solutions, and visual communication across a whole spectrum of media – from ideation and digital strategy through to UX, website design and development. The company is well-known as a full service creative and market intelligence agency driven by experienced decision makers, creative designers, market analysts, and digital producers who work together to assist clients achieve their business objectives.
Fusion Marketing categorises their services in three main groups, as follows:

Fusion Marketing is an ‘innovation-loving ‘firm and uses Apple products to carry out their daily operations which include Macbook Pros, iMacs, iPads, and iPhones. The organisation also utilises the following digital applications for communications, technologies and networks:
• email
• Skype
• Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
• Facebook, Twitter, Instagram
• MYOB
• Google Calendar.
Fusion Marketing conducts regular staff surveys to improve its infrastructure. Recent survey has yielded that the company lacks a digital service as a solution which can facilitate collaboration and group information sharing. The organisation has decided to implement this service which:
• promotes internal communication amongst teams as well as department-wise

• securely stores corporate knowledge
• grows as a knowledge base
• supports 24/7 access
• mobile friendly
• is innovative and user-friendly
• does not require any software and hardware maintenance.
One of the primary needs of Fusion Marketing is to ensure that staff is doing the ‘right thing’ in terms of intellectual property. This is due to the nature of the company’s operating environment, which includes:
• creating in-house digital portfolio
• working with contractors to get artwork produced (where necessary)
• engaging with clients and public in social media
• using clients’ patented, design registered, corporate and confidential assets.
Recently, the company has recruited a graduate Copy Writer and an experienced Social Media Coordinator with a key focus on managing social media communication channels including content coordination and community engagement.

• assist with ad-hoc communications and client content (e.g. presentations, letters, speeches, seminar scripts, etc.)
• create staff communications including weekly updates, organisational events, changes in marketing policy and procedures, and other necessary internal and external matters
• review, select, integrate, use, and maintain digital solutions to establish a sound knowledgebase with a key focus to connect all organisational units and teams in one place to collaborate and capture corporate knowledge that will foster internal crowdsourcing
• train, encourage and support team members in the application of these digital solutions.
As per your role, you have been asked by the Director of Marketing and Communications to:
• collate digital information on legal and organisational requirements that are integral part of workplace operations
• implement a web-based corporate wiki (‘Fusion Wiki’) as an internal ‘information bank’
• train, encourage and support the two newcomers on Fusion Wiki.
Simulation Phases
