In order for customer satisfaction we need to identify how we can go about finding potential customers therefore Shoe Fly thinks that targeting the whole population will be a good decision. NBC has chosen to target the young population. NBC decided to target our customers by niche marketing which encompasses all activities in which a business engages to attract and establish long-term relationships with customers comprising a small segment of the total population The age groups are: 3-14 years 15-25 years Price In order for the business to be successful, prices must be considered.

Of all the aspects of the marketing mix, price is the one which creates sales revenue, all the others are cost. The price of a product is clearly the determinant of the value of sales made. Researching consumer’s opinions could also help us in setting a price range as hey could indicate how much they value what they’re looking for and what they would pay. Due to similar companies exporting into my country NBC will have to make sure that our pricing strategy will suit the consumers.
