Presentation
We start by defining business strategies and positioning the role of marketing therein.
Students will learn frameworks and methods to analyze (1) customers, (2) competitors, (3) (sub-)markets, (4) the environment, and (5) the company internally.
Students will be familiarized with strategic marketing terminology – such as ‘sustainable competitive advantage’, ‘value propositions’, ‘brand equity’, ‘innovation’, and ‘synergy’.
These theoretical learnings will enable students to identify strategic options, which are to be implemented on a real-life business case.
Students will play the role of Business Consultants, providing a strategic marketing recommanded action plan to achieve business targets.
