Creating a Position Map, management assignment help

Create a positioning map for an organization of your choice and analyze the results.

A positioning map helps measure an organization against the
competition on two dimensions that are important in the marketplace.
Examples could be capacity, customer service, conservative versus edgy,
price, convenience, or customer loyalty. Many organizations are
increasingly using product positioning maps to look at how their
products and services are positioned in comparison to competitors and
to find ways to implement strategies. This information is especially
useful for marketing managers.

Create a positioning map for an organization of your choice. Select
an organization to analyze. Ideally, the company you choose will be a
familiar one and one to which you have easy access, such as your place
of employment or a company close to where you live. You may use the same
organization for other assessments in this course. Assess your chosen
organization against potential competitors.

Complete the following:

• Using the Positioning Map Template linked in the Resources under
  the Required Resources heading, determine two important factors and
  descriptors for the ends of the continuum, such as capacity, customer
  service, convenience, etc.
• Include your organization’s competitors in your map for the same two factors you chose for your selected company.
• Analyze the results.
• Discuss issues that leaders face when interpreting these results.
