Written Case #7: Avon
Required Written Case Assignment no. 7
November 20, 2021
I. Case Objective
1. To apply the concepts of strategic management and demonstrate the
interaction between the components of strategic management: strategic
analysis, strategic formulation, and strategic implementation.
Moreover, Porter's Five Forces is also used to understand how the five
competitive market forces influence the profitability of the company. This analysis will
further explain how forces in the industry environment might affect Avon’s choice of
strategy.
ACA#4: Do Nothing
Simply maintaining the company's current strategies and focusing on known
strengths can still give AVON a good competitive shape relative to other cosmetic
brands. It is because the company has established itself as an industry leader and
already redefined its ways of doing business in beauty and household products.
V. Recommendation
AVON should consider combining its direct selling strategy with e-commerce to keep
pace with the evolving technology, customer needs, and marketplace. The company
may do this without moving away from its traditional marketing strategy because this
alternative complements its original business model and gives more customer
convenience that directly addresses the problem of how will the company bring back
the loyalty of its customers. Furthermore, this strives to create a unique culture of
efficiency, quality, and excellence which will help the company establish a
sustainable competitive advantage and gain untapped profits from international
efforts.
