Marketing Plan of Crimea, Ukraine

According to CBS (2013) 74% of the 25 to 35 old Dutch and 58% of the 35 to 45 old Dutch people used social networks in 2012, which means that communicating with customers through social media would represent a cost efficient method for our company. Next to social networks which represent our main communication tool we will use TV commercials, Radio commercials, out-of-home advertising, articles in magazines and newspaper and direct mails to communicate with our target group.
With the product attributes adventure, nature, new experiences and different activities we want to create a new package to a new destination with the best value for money to persuade people of our target group to book it.
To sum up we described our marketing strategies, an implementation and a communication plan in order to achieve our three different objectives and to be successful with our new holiday package.

The detailed cost calculation is shown in appendix 1. To make profit we will mark up the costs per package with a profit margin of 15%. Thus the sales price accounts for €2,175.35. The costs that we need to promote and advertise our new package are estimated to account for €679,000. In addition our operating expenses account for €6,400. The detailed calculation is presented in appendix 2 and 3. We are satisfied that we achieve our three objectives and make profit because we make use of a lot of promotion and advertising tools. Furthermore our company is already well-known among the Dutch population which means that we have a high brand awareness. With the profit margin of 15% we are able to pay our operating and marketing expenses and make profit on the same time.
