Project Bowl Appétit
Marketing Strategy Project Guidelines
Project Objective:
To simulate a real-world strategy process by developing a marketing strategy and two new product concepts for General Mills’ brand Bowl Appétit.
Project Steps:
The project will consist of three steps:
- Data collection and analysis
- Strategy development
- Concept development
Each section is summarized in attached handouts. Electronic links to articles and data are provided from the project website.
Project Deadline:
Project Completion: November 16th at 3:00PM to Chris Moorman
Project Presentation: November 19th in class to General Mills executives and class
Project Deliverable:
A PowerPoint presentation that describes and justifies:
- A 3-year marketing strategy and
- Two new product concepts for Bowl Appétit.
Your presentation should describe and justify:
- Bowl Appétit’s biggest opportunities, problems, and/or challenges
- Nature of product concepts and their unique selling proposition or value proposition
- Target customer(s)
- Relevant competitors and switching logic
- Fit with any other relevant industry or environmental issues
- Fit with the firm
- Discussion of distribution, promotion, pricing strategies and how they add value or complement the offering and to the other strategies
- Three year revenue projections
The presentation you hand in can be as long as you wish. There are no limits. However, the presentation you make in class cannot exceed 10 minutes. This time limit will be strictly enforced.
Project Teams:
Project teams will consist of six members of your choice. I strongly urge you to ensure that at least one (if not more) of your team members have had Market Intelligence. Many of the data collection and analysis tools used in the project involve techniques covered in this class. Likewise, the project will draw on several of the frameworks overviewed in the Foundations of Strategy class. Finally, although less essential, it may be worthwhile recruiting team members that have had courses in Product Management and Consumer Behavior.
Project Management:
I strongly urge you to resist the temptation to adopt a project management approach that puts some team members in charge of distinct stages. This would result in the effort becoming disjointed as team members’ hand-off different sections. The resulting strategy and concepts will likely reflect a lack of integration. A better strategy is to subdivide each section into parts with team members’ tackling different data sources, strategy frameworks, and concept development techniques.
Managing Overload:
I have structured this project to give you a sense of a real-world process used by firms. As a result, the project offers an abundance of information, frameworks, and techniques that you will need to consider. In order to be successful, your team will need to decide relatively quickly where to focus your attention and effort. You will need to think hard about how to use your time to process the large amount of material that is available to you. In doing so, I hope you will learn, first-hand, more about the role of knowledge management in market strategy design activities.
