    A marketing plan for Native Fitzsimmons

    No full text
    Filipino consumers have positively responded to the growing health and wellness trend creating a demand for comfortable footwear. At the same time, the market increasingly sees footwear not just as a basic necessity but also as a way of expressing individuality and style. The Native Fitzsimmons boots embodies both comfort and style but struggles with low brand awareness and visibility in the country which caused the slow movement of its inventory. The main goal of this marketing plan is to clear out the Native Fitzsimmons inventory, approximately 5,000 pairs, before the replenishment of the stocks by the end of August 2013 without suffering any losses. The entire marketing plan will cover eight months starting from January 2013 to August 2013. The target market covers fashionable individuals from ages 18 to 25 from the socioeconomic classes AB and upper C. The wide array of colors available best suits the style of the consumers. In addition, the lightweight feature and EVA-foam injected material make the Native Fitzsimmons comfortable to wear and good for walking. In order to meet the main goal, objectives such as increasing product awareness and selling-out the remaining inventory were set by the researchers. These objectives can be attained by using the proposed strategies, which were formulated based on the results of the UAI study with 100 respondents who are fashionable. The proposed strategies cover Native Fitzsimmons\u27 distribution program, big idea and tagline, advertising program, sales promotions program, and public relations program. Native Shoes Philippines should invest a total of Php803,674.50 to be able to support the proposed strategies by the researchers. This amount would be allocated for the advertising, sales promotions, and public relations expenses

    Skim reading: an adaptive strategy for reading on the web

    No full text
    It has been suggested that readers spend a great deal of time skim reading on the Web and that if readers skim read they reduce their comprehension of what they have read. There have been a number of studies exploring skim reading, but relatively little exists on the skim reading of hypertext and Webpages. In the experiment documented here, we utilised eye tracking methodology to explore how readers skim read hypertext and how hyperlinks affect reading behaviour. The results show that the readers read faster when they were skim reading and comprehension was reduced. However, the presence of hyperlinks seemed to assist the readers in picking out important information when skim reading. We suggest that readers engage in an adaptive information foraging strategy where they attempt to minimise comprehension loss while maintaining a high reading speed. Readers use hyperlinks as markers to suggest important information and use them to read through the text in an efficient and effective way. This suggests that skim reading may not be as damaging to comprehension when reading hypertext, but it does mean that the words we choose to hyperlink become very important to comprehension for those skim reading text on the Web
