Group two successfully outlined the primary and secondary target market through their own research and from the information given by Dr. Sindelar. The research outlined each target market and even included visuals of the demographics. The target audience acknowledged would greatly benefit from their strategies and tactics. In group eight, their primary target audience of undergraduate and graduate students is currently not the primary target of Bucky’s Butchery and will likely not see significant growth even with the transition to the new facilities. Additionally, their secondary target market will not frequent the store enough to see progress in their goals (Johnson, Roe, Rathi, 2016). Between the primary and secondary audiences there will not be enough enough transactions to meet that specific goal. By conducting research and expanding the primary and secondary target markets that already frequent Bucky’s Butchery, they can utilize strategies and tactics to capture these …show more content…
Sindelar, however, are not feasible given the resources they highlighted in the budget. To successfully complete their social media goal to increase customer interactions by 100% (Burich, L, Lo, A, Wagner, E., 2016), they will want to utilize the tools of sponsored advertisements and boosting posts on Facebook. According to MozBlog, “Facebook ads are mega-awareness raising, have good targeting, require very little commitment, and are unbelievably affordable” (2016). This will in turn, support their strategies and tactics that encourage Facebook posts to engage consumers and customers. Group eight does a thorough job allowing each goal to be a SMART goal that can be achieved using their strategies and tactics.
All strategies aligned closely with the goals and had tactics that would allow for successful implantation in a realistic and achievable way. They were extraordinarily detailed and provided suggestions to complete each. Specifically, group two provides a detailed timeline that allows for implementation to both campus students and staff as well as community

St. Jude is already present in social media with one of their accounts coming from Facebook the largest and most used social media present today. It is well known that almost everyone has a Facebook profile. Even though St. Jude is a non profit hospital that accepts all children with cancer they only have 1.8 million followers. One of the reasons that they do not have a larger following count is because they do not interact as much as they should with their followers. “Hospitals use Facebook as a dissemination strategy to educate consumers, acknowledge staff, and share news of the hospital's awards. However, the majority of hospitals do not actively engage consumers on Facebook pages.”(Richter). St. Jude loses their followers attention by not actively engaging with them or answering their questions or comments in an acceptable timing. Followers would like to receive information as soon as possible. St. Jude is missing out on an opportunity to get free marketing by their followers by not fully using Facebook to its full

The target market should be 18-24-year old’s, college students. Also, younger children and chicken connoisseurs. In terms of psychographics, the main targeted consumers are those who have a passion for the city of Memphis, the University of Memphis and seekers searching for some authentic southern flavored wings. In the behavioral segmentation, perhaps adding regular specials during lunch for college students, as opposed to just having the VIP membership for everyone, this as a sponsor of the university can help attract and retain customers.
