Marketing Plan

Executive Summary
Only a block off the Queen's University campus, JJ's Café represents a gold mine of unrealized opportunity. Currently, the establishment is characterized by dark colors, limited hours of operation and poor menu selection. Thousands of students pass by a day and yet only 31% of those surveyed had ever been inside the place.
Approaching JJ's management revealed an unwillingness to co-operate with efforts to improve their current service. With this in mind, the marketing plan before you seeks to gain maximal increase in revenues while keeping the costs at an attractive level. Areas of improvement include minor renovations inside to accommodate swift take-out service, extended hours of operation to include breakfast items and late night service, expansion of the current menu to offer more variety and an emphasis on the quality aspect of the service. The various decisions involved in making these changes were based on a series of surveys, experiments and observations, as well as data collected by the Mackenzie Management Group.
The proposal as it currently stands would require approximately $5 087 to get it started and the two year return would be $10 360.
