Description of the Model
The form of your product or service and the makeup of your prospect base will influence how you structure your promotion.
If you are offering an improved version of the same product or service to the same customer/prospect base then no changes should be required.
On the other end of the spectrum, a new product or service going to a new prospect base calls for a new and innovative approach to promotion.
In between circumstances require a more subtle approach to promotional changes.

| Analysis of Your Enterprise Position |
Brand Repositioning The product remains the same, but is now offered to a new market. There will be new competitors and a new marketing mix. |
Product Repositioning The product is changing, and is now offered to a new market. There will be a new appearance, new features and benefits and new competitors. |
Innovation This is the most complex change. New technology, new price, new promotion, and new competitors call for new strategy. |
Re-market The product remains the same, but the marketing mix, price, and promotion are re-blended. |
Re-launch Change the name, appearance, costs and the marketing mix. |
Obvious Substitution The new product appears in a conspicuous manner drawing attention to new technology and materials. Change the name, appearance, costs and the marketing mix. |
No change Neither the product or market is changing. Maintain the status quo. |
Face lift No change in marketing, but changes in the product must provide greater competitive advantage. |
Quiet Substitution No change in marketing. The new product creeps quietly into the market without fanfare. |
