Our product are tops and dresses only for women with collar in jewels. They are only in silk and jewels will be semiprecious stones like emerald and topaz.
For the price we decide to propose anoffer which permit to women to have lowcosts if they choose stones in the samecolor as their eyes.
14
Localization is our first P, we are only implant in center town and airport. In this kind of places people take a walk and look to the show windows. So we decide to emphasize our product in them.
Communication is our second P, we decide to made publicity campaign as any other luxurious product. The campaign will be made on bill boards and women magazines.
15
In order to increase our quality service we decide to form our sellers in clothing retail. Indeed they are only watch sellers so they don’t know how to advise customers. And we decide to produce our products only in France in order to keep the image of huge quality.

There is marketing control committee, that will meet on Wednesday every two weeks, is to control the marketing budget and check the expenditures.
Making sure that the right amount of money is spent on the right thing, is the task of this committee.
The control tools this committee is going to use will determine whether this project will be successful or not. We will set up a survey for some well-selected loyal customers. The surveys will answer to the question of our position in the market and the perception of Europa Quartz. The survey will be made by an external firm in order to get the optimal result in the least amount of time out of the survey.
CONTROL TOOLS:
19
Important dates for our new market are: -Fathers and mothers day ( Mostly third Sunday of June ) -Christmas period ( 1 – 26 December ) -Valentine's day ( 14 February) People give presents at this period.
Our aim is to become the new market leader for tops and dresses only for women with collar in jewels. The criteria of success therefore must be that customers perceive us as the first option to go to for their jewels clothes. The answer to the question, “where can I buy male jewels tops ?” Must be: Royal Quartz. If our target group answers this question with the name Royal Quartz, and we spent our budget on the right way, we consider this plan a success.
CONTROL OF SUCCESS:
