Assessment Brief (Individual Assessment): Developing e-Marketing Plan and Integrated Marketing Communication Plan

ORGANISATION DETAILS
Note: The organisational details used in this assessment have been sourced (and to some extent paraphrased) from the organisation’s website and other relevant documents of the organisation. The information used here is solely for educational purpose.

Organisation History:
Kogan.com is Australia’s largest online retailer. The organisation takes pride on selling the best products at market-smashing prices. The organisation was founded in 2006, by the young entrepreneur Ruslan Kogan in his parents’ garage. Beginning with LCD televisions shipped directly from the manufacturer to customers, a revolutionary business model was born; one in which unnecessary costs are bypassed and the savings passed on to customers.
The company has grown over the last few years at an astonishing speed, allowing us to offer more amazing products and reach more customers across the world. We have now delivered over 3,000,000 products worldwide, and our dedication to the Kogan.com mission has never been stronger.
In February 2016, Dick Smith (Kogan’s competitor) said it would shut 363 stores across Australia and New Zealand after its receivers Ferrier Hodgson were unable to find a suitable buyer for the company. In May 2016, online retailer Kogan.com purchased the Dick Smith brand, trademarks, intellectual property, and its online business in Australia and New Zealand, for an undisclosed sum. On 4 May 2016, Kogan.com relaunched the Dick Smith brand-name as an online-only technology retailer in Australia and New Zealand.

Organisation Mission (as mentioned in the website):
It is the Kogan.com mission to:

i) Provide products that you want.
The Kogan.com business model is all about you, the customer. That’s why, when you click around our website, you will find and discover all the products that you want and need. Kogan.com is best known for our impressive range of electronics such as TVs, tablets and phones, but we also have an ever-growing range of products in categories such as Home, Kitchen, Fitness, Gardening, Lighting and more.

ii) At prices you can afford.
Kogan.com prides itself on offering the products you want at incredible prices. As an independent online store, we are able to go straight to the manufacturers, and bypass the agents, importers, wholesalers, distributors and retailers that are usually part of the retail process. By cutting out these expensive middlemen, we can pass the savings on to you, where they belong!
iii) With a safe returns policy.
At Kogan.com, we stand behind our products. That’s why we offer refunds on our Kogan.com Exclusive Brand products up to 14 days after you receive your item. We want you to love your product, so if you want to return it, that’s fine by us. See our full Returns Policy here.

iv) Daily deals for loyal subscribers.
We do everything we can to look after our subscribers. Each day we send all our best deals and discounts to the members of the Kogan.com community. This means you can be the first to find out about price drops, daily deals and competitions. It’s all part of our mission to provide the best products for the most affordable prices.

INTRODUCTION
Your introduction should include:
1. Initial consultation with stakeholders (in this case it may be your trainer and assessor who will act as the senior manager and your direct supervisor)
2. Mission, Vision and objectives of the organisation in regard to the product or service
o The objectives need to be SMART (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant and Timely). When defining these objectives think about the following:
o What the ‘Return on investment’ will be? This may include increased customer spend, greater brand awareness, an increase in visits and online registrations, etc. How you quantify and measure the success of your plan will depend on your business and marketing objectives. This will differ from business to business.
o Define objectives for each part of the customer journey – Awareness, Acquisition and Conversion. Your plan needs to look at the whole customer journey.
o Make sure that your objectives reflect exactly what you will be measured on (KPI’s).
3. Summary of strategies and tactics to be used – Once your objectives have been defined, you need to provide a top level summary of your Strategy – outlining how you are going to use digital marketing to meet them. The strategy should summarise the ‘bigger picture’ without yet going into the detail. It should explain the concept behind the tactics, providing a general overview of the techniques to be used.
4. A brief summary of the marketing environment for this product or service
5. Projected outcomes and ‘return on investment’. Details can be included in budget or costing section.
