Which of the four strategic options
suggested would be the most effective in competing in this market? POSSIBLE STRATEGY B
Create fun and exciting dining experience.
The restaurant should look and feel like a cafe in Italy. Employ fun, outgoing and energetic staff. Probably have a large outdoor dining area as well. QUESTION 2 For the strategy that you select in question number 1, develop an appropriate marketing mix (for example, what products should they offer, at what quality, with what ingredient choices and so on). You should either use the 4P's or the 7P's, whichever one you believe is more suitable, but ensure that your marketing mix wil effectively deliver the proposed strategy. We would use the 7P’s as the main purpose of our restaurant as we want to provide quality products and the best customer service to our customers. The products and foods we offer are inspired by Italians, we ensure that the ingredients are fresh, safe and in high quality. Also, our restaurant would love to offer some discounts or free products to our loyal customers if it is their birthday or birth month. We ensure that are staffs are trained and has a good customer communication skills. As to that, we are confident that you will love and surely be back to dine with us again. PRODUCT The cornerstone of our menu, featuring various crusts, sizes, and toppings. Specialty pizzas often feature unique combinations of ingredients and sauces. We also offers pasta dishes, including traditional Italian recipes like Italian carbonara, pesto pasta, and lasagna. PROMOTION We will promote our product through digital marketing such as posting in different websites, social networking sites, video marketing as most of the people today is now on using social media. Also, a successful promotion strategy must Facebook, Tiktok, align with the target audience and Youtube, Instagram costumer expectations. The raw materials are semi- cooked and are fully prepared as PROCESS and when the orders are received. Customers are informed about the ingredients so that they are aware to what they will eat. The restaurant also imports several ingredients from international vendors across all outlets to maintain identical quality standards. PEOPLE These are the skilled employees. They have standard uniforms, they appear clean and well- groomed and work in a hygienic environment. Employees seldom maintain good relationships with customers and deliver consistent standards of hospitality. We follow a price skimming policy, PRICE where it prices its new products higher than its competitors and gradually decreases its price to meet the market average. High prices tend to create excitement among the audience as it is a sign of high quality and good customer service and the pricing strategy also depends on the size of the pizza ordered. PLACE Our restaurant operates through a mix of dine-in restaurants, delivery- only outlets, and express locations to serve customers in various settings, from casual dining to quick service. We carefully selects locations based on demographics, traffic patterns, and proximity to residential and commercial areas to maximize accessibility and visibility to potential customers. PHYSICAL EVIDENCE We maintain stringent quality control standards and a hygienic working environment. The pleasant ambience with appropriate lighting and italian music appeals to the customers. The cutlery used by the company also plays its role in delivering an experience of luxury dining to the customers. Also, the take out box is not made by plastic as we use foil aluminum paper boxes. QUESTION 3

as you have constructed it, will be successful? Why? Yes, our proposed new chain of Italian pizza restaurant will be successful as we used an effective strategy on doing a marketing mix. The 7 P's of marketing is effective on doing market for a business such as restaurant. It is effective whether it'll be digital marketing or traditional marketing ways and more likely to achieve our marketing goals.
