the marketing strategy plan is about the Everyday Sunday, which is a relaxation drink.

The Rockwell Beverage Co is a start‐up organisation aimed at producing soft drinks and
possibly other products for the Australian Market (possibly expending into other markets as well). It looks to give consumers a relaxing alternative to regular soft drinks and to high energy drinks like Red Bull (Alford, 2001). Its theme is “Everyday Sunday is all natural relaxation beverage designed to keep you calm and relaxed.” The name comes from the idea that Sunday is a day of rest and relaxation, so that by drinking the product, every day becomes like Sunday.

What are the criteria for good marketing objectives?

They should be SMART:
Specific – are your objectives stated in a way that is precise about what you are hoping to achieve?
Measurable – Can you quantify each objective, i.e. can you use a unit of measure such as market share in percentage or dollars or other to provide a way to check your level of success?
Achievable – Are your objectives reasonable in terms of what you can actually achieve or are you setting your sights too high?
Realistic – Do you have sufficient employees and resources to achieve the objectives you have set, if you don’t then they are likely to be unrealistic?
Time specific – When are you hoping to achieve these objectives, you need to define a timing plan with target timing for each specific objective?
