Greenomics
As already discussed, the target market for this product is untapped and absolutely vast. Once Greenomics is launched, its market will only grow as awareness reaches people about how changing the way their run their offices will be cost-beneficial to them being environmental friendly at the same time.
Product Strategy and POD’s
As of now, there is no one in the market to design environmentally friendly offices using only ‘green’ products. So far we have tried to narrow down some of our targeted markets under various headings, which are as below
Stage in Product Life Cycle
Greenomics is just entering its introductory stage following thorough market research where people’s awareness of the service is very low and there is absolutely no competition in the market.
Marketing Mix
The marketing mix will comprise of the following approaches:
Pricing– Fabric being one of the most used items in our service will be priced low ensuring penetration but will be long-lasting at the same time.
Place– The office will be placed in the centre of the city/market area and will provide for the clients at their specified locations.
Promotion– Through ads in leading environmental, interior design and office magazines and quarterly supplements in newspapers. After a month or so when awareness has started to spread we shall go speak about our work on the local morning show.
Product– Brilliant, one-on-one interaction with customers to provide them what they want and explain to them how what they’ll be receiving will not prove to be harmful to the environment.
Branding and Packaging Strategies
Branding and packaging are very important to a product as it helps potential customers identify with the brand name and promise. Greenomics, in its name, already delivers the message explaining that it’s about economically and environmentally friendly but fashionable interior designing. This message needs to be sent across in more concrete terms for it to remain. In order to do that the main office will be designed in a way to represent what is being offered by dividing it into different proposed models for different customers. This allows them to picture more clearly what they may expect the final result to be with the promise that it shall be delivered. Most offices will try things out on pieces to check whether this alteration of ways will suit them. To ensure that we’ll make sure that all our promised work is delivered on time and is everything we promised it would be. That will take us from one office into the next and into the next and create a brand identification which will emphasize our brand strategy and help it grow.
