Complete the following activities:
1. Develop a Marketing Plan.
Use the information from your Marketing plan Briefing Report from Assessment Task 1, and the Marketing Plan Template to develop the marketing plan. Notes in the Marketing Plan Template will assist you to structure the required information.

· How the Marketing Plan meets organisational and marketing objectives
· The proposed strategic marketing mix and rationale for such
· Overall marketing approach and rationale for such
· Information that supports the choice of identified marketing strategies and tactics.
You may include notes within your presentation program to assist you in presenting.
Your assessor will be looking to see that you can demonstrate sophisticated control during the presentation and manage the various oral and visual components of your presentation so make sure you prepare and practice so the presentation is smooth and your communication methods are used effectively to transition between slides and content and you are not reading off the slides. Preparation and practice are key to making a good impression during your presentation.
Save this file as Marketing Presentation.

Your assessor will roleplay the CEO and two other students will roleplay the Sales manager and an external consultant who has been approached to provide an independent opinion on various aspects of the business. Prior to commencing your presentation, ensure you provide a printed copy of your Draft Marketing Plan to the meeting attendees.
