The Assessment Task
This assessment has been designed to allow students the opportunity to explore the underlying
importance and application of marketing strategy and implementation concepts to produce
recommendations for selected organisations.
“…positioning and segmentation are distinct parts of the strategy process and provide us with some
extremely powerful tools; but ultimately they are linked by the central issue of focusing on satisfying
customer’s needs in ways that are superior to competitors” (Hooley et al, 2017 p159)*.
*Hooley et al (2017) Marketing Strategy & Competitive Positioning. 6 th ed. Harlow Pearson.
