Focus Box.
FIS
Respond to the assessment task description in relation to the biotechnology industry sector for food production. Referred to in the task description as the Focus Industry Sector (FIS).
C+PT
The selected mode of communication and promotional tool (C+PT) for your launch is a major annual trade show in your target country. The trade show may be hypothetical, detail it only to the extent necessary to assist your analysis.
Remember our focus is on B2B Marketing and not B2C Marketing.
Task Description
The choice of business partners in B2B Marketing is for many organisations a key success factor. This will normally include developing a close relationship to allow an integrated and often leveraged response to business market needs. This particularly applies to those in industry sectors with a high delta of change (see Focus Box).
As a producer of a tangible good that is an innovative product (as opposed to a functional product) the Focus Industry Sector (FIS) has specific demand characteristics.
Assume you are a marketing consultant working for an SME (Small Medium Enterprise) in the FIS, the SME resident in Australia with limited resources, and those resources necessitating working with a business partners in your distribution and supply chains. You have been tasked with preparing a report, an evaluation of the following strategic issue.
1. You do not need to identify an existing company in the FIS, but may use a hypothetical one (only to the extent necessary).
2. You do need to nominate ONE product (and any integrated services provided). Not a product category, just ONE product (and its integrated services). Only describe the product to the extent necessary for your analysis of issue 4 (no more – do not get distracted by unnecessary detail not central to your analysis).
o The market you are entering is in an overseas country within Asia Pacific.
o As a launch strategy, your organisation has selected a mode of communication and promotional tool (C+PT which is provided in the focus box).
o The selected mode communication and promotional tool (C+PT) is provided in the Focus Box (do not nominate your own).
o Analyse why would this be an effective mode and tool to launch in the target market in the overseas country. You may use a hypothetical scenario to the extent needed.
o This is not a marketing plan. You are not required to describe the strategy beyond that needed to analyse effectiveness.
Important Notes (headings refer to the rubric marking guide below)
The format will be an applied business report and will require extensive research, analysis and preparation, consistent with the overall weighting of 35% of the total subject.
Response
Carefully consider the scope of your report and detail your precise response in scope. Make sure you respond fully to each sub task and review the marking guide. Stay focussed and only respond to the scope you have detailed in your introduction.
Analysis
The major emphasis in this assessment is on the rigorous analysis of the researched material through application. The analysis component (see the rubric marking guide) is weighted at 50/100 of the total marks for this assessment. Do NOT provide explanation and description but demonstrate your understanding through application to the case study, with full supporting evidence from credible sources.
Research & Referencing
This will require detailed research of the issue in terms of the specified task and then the applied learning of core subject and extensive research of related material. A careful selection of credible sources (see marking guide for numbers required) will be key to your success. It will not be possible to provide an insightful analysis without a careful matching of sources and your selected key findings.
Organisation & structure
A business report is required. Use the following structure for your report (headings are part of wordcount).
