1. What are the business goals and objectives of your company for the next year? 
   • This should include information about quantitative and qualitative goals of the company. 
   • If the company has a mission statement, determine if the company’s goals align with the mission statement. 
2. Draft marketing objectives to meet the business goals and objectives of the company’s plan. 
3. Draft a section about the company’s target customer groups. 
   • Develop a customer profile. 
   • Include demographic and psychographic information about the customers. 
4. Identify at least 4–5 tactical marketing strategies that you will use to implement your marketing plan.
