Assignment 1: Value Proposition Memo

Purpose

The purpose of this assignment is to explain value proposition for a product or service. This connects to course learning outcomes of helping you identify the role of marketing in creating, communicating, and delivering value for customers, and applying the concepts of value proposition and positioning to a product or service.

Assignment Task Overview

As a marketing consultant, you have been asked by one of the following streaming service companies to provide a one-page memo, casually known in marketing as a “Back of the Napkin” concept. This memo will explain the value proposition from an outsider’s perspective. Consider the internal and external environment as well as the company’s competition to demonstrate your unique selling position.

You will use 150 words or less to create a short memo to management and images to communicate your value proposition. At the bottom of your memo, you will include a “back of the napkin image” to illustrate your value proposition.  This original illustration you create can be added as a picture within your document or using the Word document tools to create a visual aid.  Your memo and illustration will display how your product or service solves a problem for the consumer. You do not have to be an artist. You will need an idea and the ability to summarize. You will submit a single page Word document with the memo and image along with a second reference page. The illustration must go inside the memo document so that only one file is submitted. Be sure that your proposition is clear and concise. Follow the instructions below.

You will be using this value proposition to develop a message campaign later in the course.

 

Instructions

Step 1:   Choose just one from any category that interests you the most.

Clean Energy/Sustainable Products Category

I have chosen:

The Refill Shoppe

https://www.therefillshoppe.com/

Step 2: Determine the value proposition for your chosen product or service. Create a memo and images to communicate the Value Proposition.

  • What is the value proposition for your product or service? Focus on offerings for customers in the U.S. market only.
  • What makes a good value prop?

 

Value Proposition Chart

 

Step 3: Format your submission to comply with these technical requirements.

One page is the maximum length of the value proposition. If you are nearing the length maximum, but have more to convey, work on editing your submission for writing effectiveness.

You may not copy a value proposition from any source even if you cite that source.

Your submission must also include a reference list in APA. The reference list is not part of the 150 words, and the reference list can be placed on a second page of the document.

Cite to the product/service website and the sources for any images used on the reference list.

 

This assignment does not require a cover page.

What are your thougths related to the addictive nature of particular foods?

Using the Gestation Demographics SEU dataset

This week we are learning about ordinal/categorical, continuous, and dichotomous variables. Using the Gestation Demographics SEU dataset that is located in the tabs at the bottom of the Framingham dataset provided, perform the following problems using R Studio or Excel.

  1. Create a simple distribution graph (histogram) where we will explore the age of women after giving birth to their first child. Remember that a histogram consists of parallel vertical bars that show the frequency distribution of a quantitative variable in the graph. See the example in Introductory Statistics with R on pages 71-7 or pages 123-124 in EXCEL statistics A quick guide. The area of each bar is equal to the frequency of items found in each class.
  2. Determine the mean age of the women in the Gestation Demographics SEU dataset.
  3. We will be testing the hypothesis that the mean age (μ = μ0) for women is 37 years in the Gestation Demographics SEU dataset. The topic of hypothesis testing was introduced in HCM505. If you need a review see Chapter 7 of our text.

H0 The mean age of women giving birth is 37 years old. (Null Hypothesis)
H1 The mean age of women giving birth is not 37 years old. (Alternative Hypothesis)Ensure to submit the following requirements for the assignment:

  • Present your findings in a Word document, by copying and pasting the histogram into the document.
  • After your analysis state whether you accept or reject the null hypothesis and your reasoning why.
  • Always use a title page, an introduction, a discussion where you interpret the meaning of the histogram, and a conclusion should be included.
  • Your submission should be 2–3 pages to discuss and display your findings.
  • Provide support for your statements with in-text citations from a minimum of two scholarly, peer-reviewed articles. One of these sources may be from the class readings, textbook, or lectures, but the others must be external. The Saudi Digital Library is a good place to find these sources and should be your primary resource for conducting research.
  • Follow APA 7th edition and Saudi Electronic University writing standards.
