Campaigns are competing for mental space of an audience that is bombarded with many other ideas and messages. This means programmes need to get creative and learn a little from commercial marketing strategies. Relying on fear or guilt to elicit long-term behaviour change is less effective. Thought-provoking, benefits-based messages are more meaningful. Awareness raising is only the first step in a campaign to change behaviour in our care setting.
Week Two Learning Team Reflection During Week 1, we discussed the basic components of business research.

Basically, by adopting both of the B2B and B2C marketing scheme, Goodyear intends to penetrate into all of the market segments with different products in order to boost the revenue sales and expand the brand availability.

This has given Goodyear the ease to thoroughly facilitate every distribution channel and control the market price of products. Among those 3 types of outlets, the independent dealer and company-owned outlets have shown to generate the highest percentage sales revenue (77% of sales revenue). In order to sustain the growth of sales revenue, Goodyear took a prompt approach to manage the channel relationship of these 2 types of dealers.
In weighing each alternative, it is determined that the appropriate course is to begin implementation of the BSC immediately as the risks of waiting are too detrimental. The analysis recommends an infrastructure around which the BSC could be built and goes on to answer some of the questions posed by employees about the logistics of implementing BSC and how it may affect them individually.

This analysis concludes by recommending that Ken not only utilize the input of

If a possible change is for the benefit of the company, it should be immediately implemented, taking under consideration the inner resistances, which should be dealt with as well.
