Problem Statement
According to Nathan Pettyjohn, CEO of the Aisle411 app, about twenty percent of retail sales are lost in stores, because shoppers can not find items when shopping.
Introduction In this stage of our development, we have come up with our final design through element D. We will use the design quite frequently in this element by reviewing the design and what obstacles we will face in the market. As a group we will have to review our design by a few things like price and distribution of our product. along with reviewing we have to see and talk about the obstacles that as a group we'll have to overcome. The merit of our design will be a big part of our project and this element. This is our business plan and attack plan for this important element.
Design Review Our product has many features that could make it effective for our target consumer. Our product is an app based software that can be distributed through standard app stores

In that element, we had to ask for expert reviews and consumer reviews on our ideas. In these our participants seemed rather interested in finding out more about our project and how to support us. After explaining our project to our parents, experts, and consumers, many are now wanting to see how our prototype turns out. We have invested time more than money into our project. Since we took classes before this project started on programing we have a basic knowledge of our software that we will use to make the app. The school has invested money into the software and tablets that we will use. If i were to explain the project to my bestfriend i would tell them about what our app is intended to do and what market we want to appeal to. Then tell them about how many people this would effect and the possible customers of our project like walmart and target even smaller retail
The company has already participated in several shows to promote the product and obtained valuable feedback buyers, consumers, professionals and media.
After several new product failures, the company began using customer input to help develop new products. In 1989, the fishing electronics industry is experiencing a downturn, and the company's sales and profits are slipping. The company, which has one product line (depth sounders) and a strong brand (Hummingbird), has conducted substantial market research on three new products. These products are project 901, hummingbird VHF Radio, Locator/ GPS navigator. Of these, project 901 is an extension of the depth sounder product, while the other two would be new product lines for the company. Top management is deciding which one or more of the three new products it should proceed with. In this paper, I will discuss the positive and negative aspects of each product ideas and my recommendations to Techsonic management
Once the target market has been identified it is important to develop a marketing strategy. In today's fast paced, information overloaded society; conveying a message about a product seems to be more difficult than ever. The consumer is bombarded with advertising everywhere they look. Today advertising not only exists on television, radio, magazines, and newspapers, it can be found on billboards, park benches, in our mailboxes, on buses, taxis, at sporting events, and on clothing.
It has come to my attention that the functionality of my computer system is quite limited for the company’s day-to-day actions. It gives me great honor to propose, a new set of systems that will replace the dated systems that I currently use to complete my job. I am confident that these machines will allow me to think of new creative, ideas that will create new innovative marketing strategies for the company.

‘The strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats analysis often forms the bedrock of any product planning process. It provides a simple yet effective framework for analysing both internal resources and external trends and competitors’ (Pender, L, 1999: 179)
Focus shall be on utilizing pre-production tools while developing the prototypes. Actual material, wherever possible, shall be used in the development of prototypes rather than having substituted parts. Make the prototypes as closer as possible to actual outputs.
...ouraging users to share the apps via social media. I believe that because I have a very targeted approach on a group that is generally underserved and not being market to I stand a good change at establishing a consistent source of revenue.

With all the problems persisting with Sephora’s digital marketing strategy, it’s becoming a time-pressing issue for Sephora to do something substantial and to do that really quickly. Hence, I am proposing to have an app named ‘BEAUTYMe’, that is fully customized for the individual customers and act as a virtual store, on the contrary to the existing apps, those act like mere online catalogues. The step-by-step app experience can be explained as below with the example of the following flow diagram.
However, this vision generates an overlapping problem between the marketing department and the product development department. The marketing department, among other duties, is responsible for the identification of new opportunities and also to assure the development of new products. Unless these activities are extremely well coordinated with the product development department, there will be misalignment in the strategy of the EPD. Ultimately, this misalignment will affect a third department, i.e. the manufacturing department, since it is directly involved in the product development process.
...s in India. Our second requirement is to analyze the market, using swot. Then we will first hand observe the quality of the market situation and the environment analysis. In the second stage we will put together our plan. After analyzing the situation in India, we will set up an objective based on the primary and secondary knowledge. Next we will base our strategy on our objective still using the information from the first stage. In the next we will implement our strategy. Assuming we come to an agreement with India, we will put our plan into action. Asking the questions: what needs to be? When will it be done? Who will do it? And most importantly what will be our cost of production? In the last stage of monitoring, we will establish required performance target, while monitoring our original plan. If any anomalies should occur in this stage we will adjust our plan.

Lastly, this stage looks at how ideas come to life through production. Therefore, implementation must ensure that design details are put into effect and that the client is satisfied with the final product.
