Instructions Submit your final Opportunity and Consumer Analysis based on the sport organization, team, or facility you have chosen. It should include a high-level l(SWIDT) analysis, identifying the opportunity you have approached, and should further analyze an aspect of the opportunity from a marketing perspective. The consumer analysis should discuss consumer behavior, trends, and influential factors. Finally, it should outline a one-, three-. and five-year plan that focuses on the marketing strategies you think will best allow you to implement the opportunity you have identified. Be sure to incorporate all instructor feedback from your milestone assignments before you submit the final project. Marketing and advertising are often used interchangeably, yet throughout this course you have learned that marketing is a much larger concept that requires a strong understanding of consumer behavior, products and services, and often the greater economic environment. Marketing is applicable to every industry and discipline in one way or another, but within the sport industry we have the chance to see the application of marketing concepts as if under a spotlight due to the industry's global reach and importance to society. Your final project is the creation of an Opportunity and Consumer Analysis. You will select a sport team, individual, facility, or organization as the focus of your consumer and opportunity analysis. When selecting your area of focus, think about your interests and career aspirations. As you progress through the course, you will have the opportunity to practice the skills required for this project in several milestone activities. Your final deliverable will include a strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) analysis of your selected focus; a consumer analysis; an analysis of successful marketing and media strategies; and a brief 1-, 3-, and 5-year plan that allows you to explain your intended use of a proven marketing strategy and various media opportunities. Please note that your Opportunity and Consumer Analysis will be an eligible artifact to include in your program portfolio, as it will highlight your ability to recognize consumer characteristics and opportunities for brand improvement. The project is divided into two milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules Three and Five. The final Opportunity and Consumer Analysis will be submitted in Module Seven.
