rigidities of a centrally planned, highly agrarian economy since 1986 to a more industrial and market based economy, raising incomes substantially In 2016 and 2017, Vietnam missed its yearly growth target of 6.7% due to environmental issues – drought and salinization - impacting the agricultural sector, and low oil prices affecting the extractive sector However, annual GDP growth reached 6.3%, reflecting strengthening domestic demand and strong manufacturing exports With average monthly wages at just over 5,000,000 VND (215 USD), most Vietnamese would be able to afford BITI’S Hunter if they deem the value worth it BITI’S Hunter Nhóm 2.3 The Political and Social Environment BITI’S company always grasp the spirit of doing business in accordance with the policy of according to the law, the company has paid attention to the lives of laborers and applied the policy to the laborers right from the first day of the labor law The signing of collective bargaining agreement is a concrete demonstration One special feature of the Vietnam Market is that Vietnamese can easily be influenced to be biased toward products and brands with Vietnamese origin out of patriotism and nationalism Brands that have successfully utilized this feature have seen significant success Competitors 3.1 Direct competitors: Adidas and Nike are direct competitors of BITI’S because of the same footwear, high fashion and same customer segmentation For example, BITI’S Hunter and Adidas Ultra boots are aimed at young people who are dynamic and catch the trend 3.2 Indirect competitors: Juno, Bershka, Zara are potentially indirect competitors of BITI’S although these are not only the major brands in the clothing, fashion handbags but also are investing the production of shoes for young people III

USD) range price, BITI’S Hunter is the company’s offer toward the middle and upper middle class who are less price sensitive Positioning strategy 3.1 Advantages of competitor’s companies: * Direct

character the merits of craftsmanship Hunter: fast - focused - accurate to be your companion, conquering the challenges of the future journey 3.3 Selecting an Overall Positioning Strategy: Selecting “MORE FOR THE SAME “for positioning strategy: - BITI’S can attack a competitor’s more-for-more positioning like Nike or Adidas by introducing a brand offering comparable quality at a lower price - The price of 650.000VND for men and 495.000VNĐ for women is considered attractive compared to the quality and make the difference between Hunter and sports shoes are available in the market - BITI’S has made great use of social networks including Facebook and Instagram A good communication strategy with good content, persuasive messages, beautiful images and highly interactive activities helped BITI’S speak the same voice to young people Various online activities such as giveaway, online sales, Uber Move (chance of getting BITI’S Hunter shoes when traveling by Uber); BITI’S also used Influencer 3.4 Developing a positioning statement - So far, most BITI’S products have been targeting customers in the lower middle class and working class with 500,000- 1,000,000 VND (21.5 USD to 43 USD) range price - With the Hunter product, BITI’S are clearly aiming at conquering young customers (17 – 25) - Experience the feeling of "Light as flying" with Hunter is an activity that is extremely consistent with the brand "modern - surprises - overcome the challenge" that BITI’S is looking forward to IV Marketing Mix (4Ps) Strategy 4Ps Analysis: Price: As stated before pricing of this particular type of products is ranging from 500,000 to 1,000,000 VND (or about 21.5 to 43 dollars) This price segment allows the product to be considered by the working class and the middle class when seeking out for a good price for value while also allow for the product to be qualified of a small percentage of customers with higher incomes BITI’S Hunter Nhóm The price range allow BITI’S to development well-designed, relatively high quality products that stand up to its promise to “Fostering your feet” and its former reputation as a brand with reliable and long-lasting products Place: BITI’S Hunter, together with most BITI’S products can be found in regional retailers, shopping malls, and distributers in most part of Vietnam The products can also be acquired through online shopping sites such as Tiki and Lazada As for now, BITI’S is one of the most accessible footwear brands in the Vietnamese market So this is by far not a huge problem Product: The BITI’S Hunter has a relatively well developed portfolio with products such as the Hunter Originals, Hunter Lite-knit Summer Vibes, Hunter 3, Hunter Feast, etc These products offer a wide choice in term of fashion and functionality, together with the durability that BITI’S was once famous for BITI’S aim is to promote youthfulness, energy, and experience to the youths with the Hunter Backed with such core values, BITI’S is aiming at the younger market which can potentially be very profitable Promotion: The Hunter product line of BITI’S has frequent promotion marking down the price of products by 10%, 15%, or 20% There are also other promotions at different times at the year Recent promotion strategies have been quite successful with “Đi để trở về” Marketing campaign using Key Opinion Leaders (KOL) getting a total of 1.2 million interactions on social media which can certainly be a very good indicator that promotion efforts are being effective BITI’S Hunter Nhóm The campaign made BITI’S, especially the BITI’S Hunter being one of the most talked about from mid-December 2017 to mid-January 2018 The after effect came months later as searches for the BITI’S Hunter surge in late March, early April 2018 BITI’S Hunter Nhóm 4Ps Proposal: 2.1 Customer's feedback The feedbacks of customers show the biggest of the Hunter and BITI’S as a whole is problems during purchases Of 100 people who were surveyed, up to 21% found issues at purchasing the product, which is a paradox comparing to the number as well as the variety of sale channels that BITI’S currently have From personal experience, we also found that BITI’S is lacking behind in terms of professionalism and customer service at retailers The issues that we had personally faced were that the sellers are neither knowledgeable about the products, enthusiastic, nor able to make a pleasant first impression toward buyers There is also a problem with the Hunter’s stockpile with a lot of models with the suitable sizes sold out Promotion can also be improve with more proactive campaigns to build a strong brand image rather than just focusing on brand awareness which had been done quite well in recent campaigns Good relations with the press and the public should also be emphasized or more capitalized 2.2 4Ps Proposal: Price: We find the price range for now is reasonable and no changes should be made The mid-tier footwear market, which is the sub-50$ price range doesn’t have much competition and such fact should be utilized to position this line of product Product: Research and development should focus on improving the Air Mesh sole or the rubber lining to improve the look, feel, and structure of the future models Approach focusing on product development, adding a new product the Hunter line BITI’S Hunter Nhóm over the span of 6-12 months would be necessary for the company to keep its competitive advantage Place: Vietnam Market can still be further penetrated It is not yet time to join foreign markets, with a relatively incompetent sale staff and relatively uncompetitive business practices Further development in the system is needed Promotion: Maintaining the usual, on-and-off price promotions or combo discounts or price reduction on certain lines of Hunter Utilizing online retailing intermediaries such as Lazada, Adayroi, and Tiki to offer short time promotion and attractive flash sales is also advisable Promotion campaign: “BE A REAL HUNTER- HUNT FOR REAL EXPERIENCE” on big media networks and systems; spreading the slogan “HERE WE GO.” Use Key Opinion Leaders to spread the message and to gain exposure Public arts on the theme with the tagline “be a real hunter” BITI’S Hunter Nhóm Print ad Campaign: “BE A REAL HUNTER- HUNTING FOR REAL EXPERIENCE” 1.Main Purpose Vietnam is famous for beautiful landscapes and spectacular scenery Let’s live fulfill with our youth without wasting a moment and always trying to find experience as much as possible - Encourages the youth hunting the real experience - Encourages Vietnam Youth naturally share the proud of country; explore their own real and unique experience 2.Symbols - The flash of lightning is the symbol of speed, dynamic and an obsession for boldness - Breaking the stone expresses strength, power, and being firm to face with all challenges 3.Promotion campaign a.Objective: Achieving at least 1.2 million interactions on social media Increase sales by 10% in the next quarter Gaining 5% market share and equity b.Strategy: - Gaining tractions through the use of Key Opinion Leaders - Running promotions over the span of the campaign on the latest Hunter product - Online photo contests with prizes on social media c.Timeline: Summer 2019 (06/2019- 07/2019) - - BITI’S Hunter From 01/06 to 07/06: o Kick starting the promotion program with promotional video, new product introduction, and price promotion follow shortly after o Get Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) involved through music video, Youtube, and Facebook From 08/06 to 22/06: o Introduce the slogan “be a real hunter” with more imagery about actions and adventures, making BITIS Hunter become not just a line of footwear but rather a symbol for action, energy, and youth Nhóm - o KOLs should be shifting from general youth images to less conventional KOLs who are actually involved with an energetic lifestyle This process should be pace out to only about 2-4 KOLs each week o This is also a good time to get online distributors and retailers involved with special promotion through online orders From 22/06 to 01/07: o Send out a closing message implying the image of youths and boldness that BITIS Hunter want to bring o Conclude the photo competition and declare winners, interview them if possible V Conclusion: In conclusion, BITI’S has done an exceptional job getting themselves back into the market over that last years through the BITI’S Hunter There are a lot of things that they have done right such as raising brand awareness or creating conversations However, most of the Promotion efforts still revolve around awareness rather than preference and actual purchase The perceived values from BITI’S products remain relatively low with bad retail services and short warranty time This can be tweaked, changed, or improved so as to provide customer more values and build profitable relationships with customers BITI’S Hunter Nhóm References:
