    BRIEF<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    INSTRUCTIONS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    For this assignment, imagine you have just been appointed the marketing manager of an organisation. Your first assignment in your new role is to prepare a competitor analysis report providing an overview of the market environment in which the company operates and key competitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    For your analysis, you should use Porter\u2019s Five Forces Model as a guiding tool. In addition, you will identify key competitors, a target market, and consumer behaviors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    You may select your current workplace or an organization that has some significance to you. If you are not currently associated with a workplace or organization, you may select a company or organization that you are interested in or one that has been reported recently in the media. It is strongly advised that you use the same company in all of your assignments in this subject.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Your market report should include the following elements:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. Company Overview<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Describe the company or organization you selected. Include what sector and industry they operate in and their key products, services, and customers. This section should provide background information and context.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      2. Porter\u2019s Five Forces Analysis<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      1. Supplier Power \u2013 How many potential suppliers do you have? How unique is the product or service that they provide? And how expensive would it be to switch from one supplier to another?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. Buyer Power \u2013 How big are your buyers\u2019 orders? How much would it cost to have them switch from your product\/services to a rival competitor? Are your buyers strong enough to dictate terms to you?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      3. Threat of New Entry \u2013 Is it easy for a new competitor to gain a foothold in your industry or market? How much would it cost? How tightly is your sector regulated? Do new entrants come and go regularly? Is the industry dominated by a few players?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      4. Threat of Substitution \u2013 What is the likelihood your customers find a different way of doing what you do? How easy would your customers have to substitute your product\/service?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      5. Competitive Rivalry \u2013 How many competitors do you have? Who are they? How does the quality of their products\/services compare to yours?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        3. Target Consumer<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        1. Identify the key target market for your company. Describe the main characteristics of a target customer and their personal and social influences.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

            5. Recommendations<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Based on your research and analysis, identify three (3) opportunities or recommendations on how the company can improve its overall market position. Write your recommendations as if they are to be presented to the CEO or Board of Directors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            CONSIDERATIONS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

              \n
            • If you are having trouble with your market analysis, your academic\/instructor should be your first source of assistance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Have you identified and defined the academic concepts related to the assessment task using current academic literature?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Have you demonstrated the ability to apply and integrate relevant theories, frameworks, or concepts in your analysis?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
