On a trip home during the summer break, you pay your Uncle Dave a visit at his record store. When you walk in, you notice there is not one single customer. “I have run this store since the 1980s,” Uncle Dave says with a sigh. “We were the first store in this whole town to sell compact discs! But now, it feels like we’re at least a decade or two behind the times. No one buys records anymore—or even CDs! I have thought about just closing down the store and retiring a little early. But I can’t stand the thought of doing that just yet. I wish there was some sort of new direction I could take things in.” You explain to Uncle Dave that the best idea would be retooling his marketing plan. Product: What new products and/or services might Uncle Dave start to offer at his store, since—in his own words—no one buys records or CDs anymore? Price: Would lowering his prices help Uncle Dave? Or, for that matter, would raising them give him a slight boost? Place: Should he start using other channels for distribution, or positioning his products differently? Promotion: Are there any new IMS techniques that Uncle Dave might not be using, but should use? What target audiences may be unaware of his store and its offerings?
