Product or Service Selection for Marketing Plan

Your marketing plan is about a specific product or service. You may
select any product or service that interests you, within the following
guidelines:

1. It may not be for an existing brand or specific company,
meaning no Coke, Wal-Mart, or McDonald’s.

2. The product must be technologically feasible.

3. It must be legal and appropriate for a class environment.

4. While the instructor will make exceptions, the product should
not require a national launch.

5. You may wish to consider a local service rather than a physical
product that involves manufacturing issues.

6. Your product may NOT be non-profit; although the company
may be a non-profit organization. For example, you might
market a series of training manuals from the American
Marketing Association, which is a non-profit professional
association. However, the manuals are priced at $2500 per
set. Conversely, you might select your favorite charity and
develop a marketing plan for raising funds, but you may NOT
develop a plan for the services the charity provides free of
charge.
