The company produces and sells a range of black, green and flavoured teas and fruit infusions. TT's last Director of Marketing was away from work with illness for most of last year and has now retired. Recently TT appointed a new Director of Marketing who had previously been working for a rival drinks company. The new director's analysis of TT's marketing approach is that the company adopts too many 'me too' strategies by simply copying the actions of its competitors. She believes that TT needs to become more strategic in its approach with more systematic planning processes. In addition, she notes the increasing cost of using contractors to dispose of waste from the production process for flavoured teas and fruit infusions. (Her previous company recycled such waste to make a soil enrichment treatment. This was used by both the company and its suppliers and still there was too much for their needs.) The new director has announced a series of initiatives including: Developing an effective strategic marketing plan in conjunction with key stakeholders. Such a strategy would need the approval of TT's Executive board. Using a more strategic approach to product investment utilising models and frameworks such as the product lifecycle and the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) matrix. Adopting more sustainable practices which she feels would 'make good business sense'. Required: (a) Describe the features of TT's new strategic marketing plan which would be necessary for it to be considered effective. (10 marks) (b) Explain how the marketing models and frameworks identified by the new director might help TT manage its product portfolio. (10 marks) (c) Explain the potential benefits of sustainability to TT. (Total for Question Three = 25 marks) Section C continues on the opposite page Enterprise Operations 6 November 2011
7 Question Four TB is a successful international telecommunication company with over 100,000 employees and a headquarters in its base country's capital city, U. A recent report concluded that TB has been successful because it has seized the opportunities of globalisation through a series of initiatives including using virtual work teams spread across continents, cultures and time zones. These initiatives helped to improve staff productivity and maximised TB's use of technology. Key features of TB's operation include: Achieving fast communication and saving some travel costs through , videoconferencing technology and Voip (voice over internet protocol) combined with webcam equipment; Working hard to improve communication through its own social networking sites with blogs, wikis, podcasts, RSS feeds and the use of instant messaging software; Offering a scheme of flexible working practices and home-working to its headquarters staff (10,000 employees have opted to work from home including accountants, Information Systems (IS) and Human Resource (HR) staff). Those switching to home working 'give back' 50% of the time they previously spent commuting in the form of extra working hours.
