• Target Market: La Di Da’s target market is middle class women, 18-30, who are looking for fashion within a set budget. These target consumers have an eclectic, bohemian style and like clothing with a unique Denton flare
• Value Proposition: La Di Da offers its customers a unique mix of clothing that uses Denton’s eclectic music scene as a guide. Their slogan is “where fashion is fun for everyone” they strive to offer a place where customers can have a “truly unique fashion experience.”
• Current Marketing Strategies– Traditional: Full page advertisements in College
Guide Magazine, Word of Mouth– Digital: Facebook page, Twitter page, blog, basic
website and email. • Facebook and Twitter are the main avenues used to
create and maintain a relationship with customers. – Sharing pictures, commenting on products, reviews,
promotions and new products
Deficiencies in the Current Marketing Strategy– Traditional: Advertisements in College Guide, Word of Mouth
• Not many people ever look at the College Guide, often goes straight into the trash
• The College Guide (obviously) only targets college students, so it has a narrow audience
• WOM may be a big help, but no business can rely entirely upon it to keep high store traffic
Deficiencies in the Current Marketing Strategy, cont.– Digital: Facebook, Twitter, Blog, Website
• Blog has one entry, made in 2009 – it is a good idea that has not been developed
• Website is very spartan, only contains bare-minimum location, store hours, address, and links to Twitter and Facebook– No way to browse clothes, accessories, or even the brands they
carry– Cannot make purchases online
• Facebook could be updated more often, host promotional events
Strengths• Loyal Local Consumer• Central location in the heart of Denton• Website layout is very unique and
personalized to the store.• Colorful layout• Large logo
Weaknesses• Cannot purchase items on website• Basic website • Basic information about the store.• Potential consumers are unaware of the
existence of the store
Opportunities• Create an ecommerce site instead of static
site.• Potential to expand from local target market
to a broader area of North Texas• Create buzz about new extension of the
store through grand opening promotions
Threats• Not enough buzz to attract new consumers• Other boutiques in area attracting its
customers.• Users are turned off by site and do not
attempt to visit the store.• Loss of interest/business
• First and foremost, improve their website • User friendly experience • Upgrade mobile app to go along with the website • Offer special deals for just their online business to
keep customers coming back• Seasonal specials • Build hype for their brand and products
New Digital Strategy
• Keeps the consumers interested in the website they are on; better user experience
• Personalized shopping experience • Helps company keep track of customers
activities to further strategize
Why include Digital Tools?
• Immediately upgrade website • Heavy advertising and marketing – Billboards, flyers, word-of-mouth, TV ads, flyers, online
marketing (Facebook, Twitter, etc.), etc.• Create an active online presence and
communicate with customers on social networking cites to find out what they like and dislike
Implementation plan
• These changes in the companies digital and marketing strategy will attract more customers
• Build a better relationship with the consumers – Personal and friendly
• Increase customer loyalty • New and better brand image and reputation will be
created • As sales increase, stockholders will want to invest more
