Key Models for Insight Analysis

In week 2 tutorial we considered the macro-environmental analysis (PESTEL)

Need to consider the micro-environment and internal environment of the firm

Together give us the ‘insight’ we need to write a plan

Internal

(controllable)

External

(uncontrollable)

Macro-economic

Micro-economic

Marketing planning is the process of applying marketing resources to achieve marketing objectives. The marketing audit is the systematic collection and analysis of information and data about the external environment and company operations. SWOT is a summary of the marketing audit under the headings of internal strengths and weaknesses as they relate to external opportunities and threats. A further step in matching the external (uncontrollable) and internal (controllable) variables and a structure for setting objectives and strategies.

Porter has designed many models. The 5 forces model looks at the company.
