Any marketing strategy, regardless of the industry, is composed of clear components. Depending on the industry, there may be more or fewer elements, but the international standards are as follows:
Brief – includes the information provided by the brand representative to the marketer about the product or service, helping to form a clear understanding of the brand’s goals and the ways to achieve them.
External Environment Analysis – before proposing specific solutions, research must be conducted. The first step is the analysis of the external environment, which is carried out through clear marketing models, aimed at understanding what external and internal factors may influence the business, and how to leverage these factors to maximize benefits while minimizing risks and enhancing opportunities.
Target Audience Analysis – one of the most important aspects of a marketing strategy, helping to understand who the product is intended for. This analysis is also conducted using specific methods, often employed by sociologists, to assist marketers.
