Reliable products for low technology customers: Our brands offer value. Our stakeholders are bondholders, stockholders, customers and management.

After a period of declining sales for Allround, we increased the advertising budget to be consistent with our competitor’s budget.

Although the company did show an increased gross profit of $8,255,000 with $6,358,000 less Net Sales in 2013 versus 2012, that increase is due to the reduction in product Cost of Goods Sold by $14,613,000. Since increases in product price will negatively affect sales, one of management’s primary goals is to keep prices stable. This objective is achieved through implementation of cost cutting programs, investing in more efficient equipment, and automation of more steps in the production process.

Three key issues contributed to the disappointing sales. First, internal organizational challenges prohibited the growth of the line. Rigid

Quarter 1’s decisions were to determine the desired image of the company, analyze market opportunities, establish corporate goals and strategic direction, and select the appropriate market to test the product. I decided to named the company MIA because I want the company to represent a line of effortless and convenient computers for business and individual consumers

Hewlett Packard (HP) decided to produce 1.3-inch disk drives to become the market leader in a new market and increase HP’s revenue. Although the market for 1.3-inch disk drives was still unclear and still developing, HP decided to organize a special team to develop this new product. This group was multi-talented, with the best engineers from every department in the company. The group also had many priorities for the company. However, things didn’t develop as the Kittyhawk team expected. They failed to sell the new product to the customer they planned. Even though some new customers were interested in this

Product Innovation – Innovation of new products had failed many times and MTI has lost reputation with Wall Street. This process had been placed on the backburner and when the CEO came on board there were only six products in the pipeline. Therefore, to be successful in the future, MTI needs to invest more in R&D and focus on delivering new products.

Comparing the afterwards performance to our objectives and chart 03 in Market Analyze section, our group found out that: speaking of our main goal: No.1 seller of 1L&500mL ClearPure products; we only achieved it during quarter 2 (without knowing how much importers sold in quarter 2), but failed on overall, and totally failed on the goal of financial objective to keep 7% gross margin after 3 quarters due to the negative net loss we have. So how and why we come to this situation, what kinds of mistakes we made affected our company’s performance? Are there any good methods leftimprovements we could make if there is another chance?

Initial goal: Focus on both large & highly competitive segments and the fringe segments that are not traditional in the emerging PC industry. MicroBrust’s strategy in Q6 evolved into becoming a value offering, capitalizing on micro-segments in the Workhorse and Mercedes segments and a brand leader in the Traveler segment, where we had a competitive advantage in R&D innovations.

We knew that while making our product we had to keep in mind that different type of customers wanted different things all depending on how much they were willing to spend on the product. For example, Our Workhorse demanded more Easy to use, Low price, has a distinct look, able to store a lot of data, After-sale service and support, can link with other computers, Fast and powerful. They needed something reliable and less expensive since they are the hardworking people that don not have too much money to spend The chart here explains a little better on the Workhorse needs and want. The price that the workhorse was willing to pay for the product was 2,500.

Joe Schmoe made a number of fundamental errors and my objective was to remedy those errors as a means of improving performance. My analysis revealed a number of things, for example that the X5 needed to be discontinued after 2014 because it became unprofitable at that point, with its high fixed costs. I also saw that the research and development budget for the X5 was better allocated to the other products because the X5 was close to the end of the product life cycle. Consumers of that product simply do not care about new advances. The research and development budget was better allocated to the X6, which has a premium positioning in the market, and the X7, so that product can deliver the best quality/price ratio in the industry.

Acer's dominance as a global manufacturer of IT hardware products can be attributed to the company's extensive electronics component expertise, depth of experience managing global electronics component supply chains, and well-planned acquisitions. Through a series of successful acquisitions, the company has four successful brands including Acer, eMachines, Gateway and Packard-Bell (DiDominico, Kartika, Sibeck, 1996). Of these three strategic areas that Acer excels in, their logistics and supply chain expertise across each of the geographies they compete in continue to deliver the greatest time-to-market and cost gains (Honi, Taring, Po-Young, 2000). Acer is organized into two segments, the device business group and consolidated products and services or other business group. This second group continues to be instrumental in the success of the "divide and conquer" strategies that Acer is successfully using relative to Lenovo. It is also a critical success factors in their success with global markets and local market competitive strategy. The combination of their depth of expertise with electronic components and supply chain prowess in the high technology industry also give the company a formidable competitive advantage against Dell and the troubled PC marker Hewlett-Packard (Honi, Taring, Po-Young, 2000). Despite all these strengths however, Acer continues to struggle with the areas of consumer branding and consumer awareness
