Chapter 2 Strategic Planning for Competitive Advantage
*
Notes:
Strategic planning creates and maintains a fit between the organization’s resources and objectives and the evolving market opportunities. The goal is to sustain and increase long-run profitability and growth. Strategic decisions require long-term commitments of resources.
Strategic errors can threaten a firm’s survival, but a good plan can help protect and grow the firm.
Examples of strategic decisions:
* Sears purchase of Lands’ End
* Reebok’s decision to stop competing with Nike in the hard-core sports market and instead focus on being the top shoe brand for fashion-forward consumers.
* McDonald’s decision to offer more healthful foods
* S.C. Johnson’s introduction of Shout Color Catchers
Discussion/Team Activity:
Discuss why strategic planning is important for these companies.

PUMA Corporate Strategy
At the heart of our company strategy is the focus on continuously pursuing a more flexible and efficient organization that is fit to thrive in an increasingly dynamic and fast-paced industry. To this extent, over the course of the past few years, we have decentralized our structure on the way to creating the first truly virtual sports company.
In 2006 PUMA has launched Phase IV of its long-term oriented business plan (see "Corporate Development"). To help manage the matrix organizational structure and as part of PUMA’s company development over the past years was, we have created the Group Executive Committee, which incorporates the functions of brand management, product, finance, growth management, legal and organizational structure into one core body.
The resulting cross-functional communication has further enhanced PUMA’s corporate agility. Implementing this nimble structure enables PUMA to realize efficiencies in areas such as product lifecycle, management and sourcing.
The end result helps reduce lead times and costs, while concurrently fostering improvement in quality. These advances are part of a constantly evolving process in which our corporate strategy and structure lends us competitive advantage.

PUMA Brand Strategy
The brand is focusing on bringing distinctive designs and a global outlook to each product range by blending influences of sport, lifestyle and fashion.
In order to achieve these goals, our brand template emphasises PUMA’s distinctiveness, individualism, spontaneity, internationalism and sporting heritage.
An important part of our brand strategy is maintaining vigilant watch over our distribution channels, ensuring that we maintain the high level of desirability necessary for sustainable growth.
Concurrently, in areas where licensee growth is desired, we will provide solid guidance and strict alertness to make certain that the brand’s objectives and direction are maintained.

NOTES:
Marketing has two facets. The first is that it’s a philosophy. Second, marketing is an organization function and a set of processes used to implement the philosophy.
David Packard, cofounder of Hewlett-Packard, stated that “marketing is too important to be left only to the marketing department.” Marketing is a process that focuses on delivering value and benefits to customers. It uses communication, distribution, and pricing strategies to provide customers with the goods and services they want. It includes building long-term, mutually rewarding relationships. It entails an understanding that organizations have many connected stakeholder partners, including employees, suppliers, stockholders, distributors, and others.

Sources of Cost Reduction
*
Notes: Sources of Cost Reduction
Experience Curves: Costs decline as experience with a product increases, and encompasses marketing, manufacturing, and administration costs.
Efficient Labor: Labor costs in low-skill, labor-intensive industries can be reduced by going offshore or by outsourcing.
No-frills Products: Removing frills and options can reduce costs.
Government subsidies: Governments may provide grants and interest-free loans for target industries.
Product design: Cutting-edge design and reverse engineering can offset costs.
Reengineering: Reengineering in the form of pruning product lines, closing obsolete factories, or renegotiating supplier contracts can make firms more efficient.
Product innovations: New technology and simplified production techniques can reduce production costs.
New methods of service delivery:
Examples include:
* Internet ticket booking and self-check-in kiosks in the airline industry

Notes:
A niche competitive advantage targets and serves a single segment. This allows small companies with limited resources to market against giant competitors.
An example of a successful niche marketer is The Orvis Company, a specialist in fly fishing manufacturing and sales.

Discussion/Team Activity:
Discuss how a small firm serving a particular niche market can successfully compete against larger, global firms with greater resources. (For example, how might a small bookstore owner compete with Barnes & Noble and Amazon.com?)
Chapter 2 Copyright ©2008 by South-Western, a division of Thomson Learning. All rights reserved *
Sources of Sustainable
*
Notes:
A sustainable competitive advantage lasts only as long as the time it takes a competitor to imitate the strategy and plans.
Marketing managers should continually look for skills and assets that create and sustain competitive advantage.
A sustainable competitive advantage is a function of the speed with which competitors can imitate a company’s strategy and plans. Imitation requires a competitor to identify the leader’s competitive advantage, determine how it is achieved, and learn how to duplicate it.
Discussion/Team Activity:
Discuss examples of firms that have sustainable competitive advantage in each skill and asset source listed.

Portfolio Matrix
*
Notes:
The Portfolio Matrix from Boston Consulting Group classifies each SBU by its present or forecast growth and market share. The assumption is that market share and profitability are strongly linked.
A star is a fast-growing market leader. Stars usually have large profits but need cash to finance growth. A marketing tactic is to protect market share by reinvesting earnings in product improvement, distribution, promotion, and production efficiency. Strive to capture new users as they enter the market.
A cash cow generates more cash than it needs to maintain market share. It is in a low-growth market, but the product has dominant market share. The marketing strategy is to maintain market dominance by being the price leader and by making technological improvements. Allocate excess cash to high-growth prospects.
A problem child shows rapid growth but poor profit margins. It has a low market share in a high-growth industry. It needs a great deal of cash to prevent conversion to dog status. Strategies are to invest to gain better market share, acquire competitors, or drop the SBU.
A dog has low growth potential and a small market share. Most dogs leave the market. The strategy options are to divest or harvest.
Chapter 2 Copyright ©2008 by South-Western, a division of Thomson Learning. All rights reserved *
BCG Matrix
Method focuses on the potential of a firm’s existing successful products to generate cash that the firm can then use to invest in new products
New products are chosen for their potential to become future cash generators
Two dimensions:
Market growth rate
Relative market share
Chapter 2 Copyright ©2008 by South-Western, a division of Thomson Learning. All rights reserved *
BCG Matrix: Stars
requires funding to keep up with production and promotion demands
strategies seek to maximize market share in the face of increasing competition
Chapter 2 Copyright ©2008 by South-Western, a division of Thomson Learning. All rights reserved *
BCG Matrix: Cash Cows
SBUs with dominant market share in a low-growth potential market
product is well established and market share can be maintained with minimal funding
firms milk cows of profits to fund growth of other products in portfolio
too many cows can become a liability due to the lack of growth potential
Chapter 2 Copyright ©2008 by South-Western, a division of Thomson Learning. All rights reserved *
BCG Matrix: Question Marks
sometimes called problem children
The dilemma? Investing more money into the SBU may:
improve market share in a high potential market OR
result in negative cash flow and failure
Chapter 2 Copyright ©2008 by South-Western, a division of Thomson Learning. All rights reserved *
BCG Matrix: Dogs
specialized products in limited markets unlikely to grow
firms may sell dogs to smaller firms or eliminate product from market

Portfolio Matrix Strategies
*
Note:
Build: If an SBU has the potential to be a star, building would be an appropriate goal.
Hold: If an SBU is a successful cash cow, a goal would be to hold or preserve market share.
Harvest: This is an appropriate strategy for all SBUs except stars. The basic goal is to increase short-term cash return without much concern for the long-run impact.
Divest: Getting rid of SBUs with low shares of low-growth markets is often appropriate. Problem children and dogs are suitable for this strategy.

Marketing Mix: The “Four Ps”
LO8
“4 Ps”
*
Notes:
The product is the starting point of the marketing mix. It is difficult to decide on a promotion campaign, determine a price, or design a distribution strategy until the product offering and product strategy are defined.
The product is not only the physical unit but also the packaging, warranty, after-sale service, brand name, company image, value, and other factors.
Products may be tangible goods, services, and ideas.
Product decisions are discussed in Chapter 9 and 10, services marketing in Chapter 11.

Warner Brothers
Universal Studios
How do movie companies use their Web sites as part of their promotion strategies? Visit the sites for the movie studios listed to see what films they are promoting heavily. Also look at movie-specific sites. Are there differences how the movie-specific site promotes the film and how the studio’s umbrella site promotes the film? Explain what you find.
Notes:
Promotion includes personal selling, advertising, sales promotion, and public relations.
Each element of the promotion mix is coordinated with the others to create a promotional blend. Integrated Marketing Communications is discussed in Chapters 14, 15, and 16. Technology-driven aspects of promotional marketing are covered in Chapter 19.
A good promotion strategy can increase sales, but does not guarantee success.

Price is an important competitive weapon and is often the most flexible of the marketing mix. Of the four Ps, it can be changed most quickly.
Price multiplied by the number of units sold equals total revenue for the firm.

Notes:
Strategic planning is not an annual event, but an ongoing process. The environment is continually changing, and the firm’s internal resources and capabilities are continually evolving.
Strategic planning is based on creativity. Assumptions about the firm and the environment should be challenged and new strategies established to sustain competitive advantage.
Management support and participation are critical to the success of strategic planning.

Akeelah and the Bee Promotion
Rather than featuring the standard movie poster used in more traditional promotional campaigns, the Starbucks campaign builds on the movie’s theme of the power of words by leveraging unique in-store placements and techniques that have not been implemented before.
Customers will be invited to step inside Akeelah's journey as part of their daily coffee routine.
The campaign will drive buzz and challenge customers to expand their vocabulary and spelling prowess with difficult-to-spell and exotic words printed on a wide variety of collateral such as flash cards, magnets, in-store signage, coasters, and cup sleeves.
In addition, beginning April 17, travel-sized SCRABBLE® will be sold in all Starbucks locations in the U.S. and Canada, further supporting the central theme of the campaign: “Changing the World One Word at a Time.”
