Case Study One – Zatswho LLC. 1. What tips can you offer Cooper and Schwinoff about family members who start and run a business together? What pitfalls would you warn them to avoid? Some tips that I would offer Cooper and Schwinoff would be to listen to one another and compromise on what you may or may not think is the right thing to do.

Work with a team of your classmates to brainstorm potential groups of people who make up Zatswho's target market. A group of people that would make up the target market of Zatswho’s would be parent, guardians, nannies, and even daycares with small children from 1-4 years of age. I believe that this would be the best target market since they would benefit from this product as they wouldn’t just have to put family photos in them they could also put anything that they believe would help the child learn whether that be the alphabets or numbers or shapes. I also think that this product would be great to use with children that have special needs like autism and even downs syndrome. Children with special needs could learn the same things that normal children do and have fun doing it. You could also use this product to teach children that have hearing impairment by teaching them the same things you could teach normal children and introducing it to them via sign language. 4.

Canadian based company, Saralyn Mills, is in need of a new marketing strategy to repair the current shortage of sales in Quebec, Canada. According to the case study, the Quebec and Ontario markets account for 69 percent of the company’s sales in Canada.

It is up to the marketing manager, Nicole Vichon, to come up with a new and separate marketing plan for Quebec. Even though this would be a major policy change from the current global strategy of Saralyn Mills, case facts prove it could be very effective.

However, reaching out to them will be very hard considering
