Solution.pdfTask overview and context You receive an email from Nancy Tooket, Managing Director: Retail Operations, BizOps Enterprises Subject: Company profile and branding update Hello, As discussed at our recent management meeting, BizOps Enterprises has decided that it is time to
aim/ objective
refresh particularly its brand in the and retail increase arm of the the company profile with a view to increasing market share,
organisation. Currently we have 33 per cent of the market; Lamarck has 38 per cent; Apollo has 15 per cent; Fergusson’s has 9 per cent; and smaller businesses make up the rest. Recently, there have been some issues with our current approach identified through anecdotal issue
information. The problem appears to be a lack of innovative ideas to project our brand, resulting in loss of potential customers and declining market coverage.
