  • Title: Comparative Effectiveness of Email Incentives in Promoting Survey Responses and Sales for Zoomaco

    The company decided to test four different email incentives (labelled A, B, C and D in the data set) to customers to fill out the survey. Regardless of the incentive, all offered 10% off the customer’s next purchase for filling out the survey and all received the same survey. The data attribute “Promotions” indicates the promotion email the customer received (A, B, C, or D). 
    Requirements:
    @ Analyze the comparative effectiveness of the four incentives. 
    Things to consider: -Response rate 
    -While Zoomaco offered the 10% off incentive to promote survey responses, does the data support a 10% off incentive to boost sales? 
    – What does the data indicate about the buying behavior of customers who responded to the survey? If yes, which survey is most effective at increasing sales? Consider:
    Total sales, Average sales per customer, Number of transactions 
    Deliverables:
    #Prepare a report and short presentation on the comparative effectiveness of the four incentives and their use in sales promotions.
    Please upload a maximum 1-page Word (or PDF) file report summarizing your findings on the incentives’ effectiveness and your recommendation for which incentive is most effective if Zoomaco wants to use a similar format to grow sales. 
    # Please also upload Powerpoint slides with tables and charts to support a maximum 10-minute presentation.

    Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
    Introduction
    Trend: Select a current trend in operations management. Examples of current trends include total quality management, lean techniques, customization, green manufacturing, global competition, JIT manufacturing, and supply chain management. Why is the trend you selected important in operations management?
    Organization: Select a service or manufacturing organization to which you can apply this trend. Examples of service organizations include UPS, car repair shops, and restaurants. Examples of manufacturing organizations include automotive manufacturers such as Toyota and computer manufacturers such as Dell. Why did you select your organization?
    Organization
    Goals: What are the organization’s goals? For example, is the organization working toward becoming greener for sustainability, becoming the leading low-cost supplier, or trying to be first in market share? How does the trend align with the goals of the organization?
    Resources: Identify the organization’s resources. Does the organization have the resources available to implement the trend? Explain.
    Impact: Describe how the trend you selected will impact the goals and resources of your organization. Will the organization need to make any changes to its goals or resources to implement the trend?
    Risk: Discuss the risk the organization will face if it implements the trend with its current resources. How does the availability of resources impact the organization’s risk in implementing the trend? If all required resources are not available, how does the risk increase with regard to the trend implementation?

In your SWOT analysis, make sure to comprehensively discuss the internal and external factors affecting your organization. You can find an example template in the Module Four resources.

    Strengths: You identified your organization’s strengths in your SWOT analysis. Now describe how the trend you selected will increase your organization’s strengths and advantages over the competition. In other words, how will the trend impact the organization’s strengths?
    Weaknesses: You also identified your organization’s weaknesses in your SWOT analysis. Describe how your organization’s weaknesses make it difficult for the organization to compete. How will implementing the trend impact your organization’s weaknesses?
    Recommendations: What recommendations can you make to help the organization make effective decisions to improve its weaknesses? What recommendations can you make to help the organization make effective decisions to capitalize on its strengths? How can these recommendations help the organization implement the trend and improve operations?
    Risk: Managing risk is part of improving operations. What potential risk does the organization face in implementing the recommendations to improve operations? Why?
    Tools and Techniques: What continuous improvement tools and techniques could you suggest to the company to use in implementing the trend? Why? Explain your suggestions.
    Longevity: Does the trend you selected have longevity to support sustainable operations? Will it remain relevant in operations management? In other words, do you see this trend in operations management continuing? Support your opinion with research or real-world examples.
    Conclusion: Now that you have examined the organization’s goals, resources, strengths, and weaknesses in relation to the trend you selected, evaluate the trend. Would you recommend that the organization implement the trend? Why, or why not? Support your recommendation with research or real-world examples.
