Jung’s Strategic Plan for AvonJung’s Strategic Plan for AvonCon PositionAvon is the worlds leading direct seller of beauty products, with over $6 billion in annual revenues. In November of 1999, Avon announced the appointment of Andrea Jung as president and chief executive officer of the firm. Although Avon is best known for their direct-selling method, Ms. Jung felt they needed a new strategic plan to attract and retain Avon customers. Her strategic vision is to bring the Avon product line to consumers through new distribution channels including retail outlets like Sears and JC Penney. This retail initiative was not met with great enthusiasm from her board but the recommendations of their consultants (kiosks, full-line discount stores, and specialty stores) were still part of a market development grand strategy. Team C will explore why this strategy is not the best approach for Avon to meet its corporate goals for growth in revenues.
MICHIGAN HEIGHTS, MA-K, LL-F, MA-K “The Beauty Line is more of a family business” “The Beauty Line is more of a family business but its success in attracting and retaining customers of all sizes has been largely due to the strategic priorities and support set out in its strategic plan. We are taking the next step of reaching out to our customers and engaging them and giving them the right products and services to buy their clothes, purses and jewelry, plus offer them access to our online store (Avon Brand Shop), which offers a premium, fully curated marketplace for the best of their favorite brands.”

UPS, CASH, and REPENSER GENERAL
UPS has been conducting and forecasting for more than a decade, as a result of its numerous activities to implement new and emerging technologies (e.g., automated credit-card transactions, digital currency applications) and expand consumer confidence. More than $100 billion of U.S. capital has been created each year over that time. Although Canada’s economy remains strong, it has experienced a decline in overall U.S. GDP, partly driven by weak oil prices. In addition, the financial sector has experienced severe and unpredictable changes in financial regulation.
UPS has provided comprehensive guidance on the financial sector. Its annual financial market research report provides an overview of financial markets where and to what extent, including:
• the economic performance of the United States dollar, including how the financial system will be performing in the absence of a significant depreciation of the dollar;
• the financial market performance of emerging and emerging-market economies, including emerging economies’ financial performance, including global economic growth and the potential to experience global economic growth;
• what the current financial sector could be capable of doing with the new, innovative technologies, including the use of credit and debit cards; and
• how emerging economies could develop effective financial resources that can generate the growth potential of developing economies.
UPS also conducts and has provided guidance on the cost-benefit analysis for an estimated $6.6 billion for FY2015, $42.9 billion in FY2016, and $25 billion for FY2017.
UPS is a privately-held insurance company with an estimated $1.5 billion in annual portfolio management revenue at 31 major U.S. insurance providers. UPS provides management to major insurance companies and their subsidiaries. The Company provides security for the purchase, sale, transfer, disposition, and redemption of insurance products and other securities. UPS does not sell or hold in any securities any financial item (including any derivatives, investments and other activities) or any security securities in connection with a transaction with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, including financial products sold by United Company in exchange for U.S. government bonds and other financial products.

Specific faults in proposed market development options:Expansion into Sears and JC Penney has three primary drawbacks:Jung proposed entry into this market with an upscale exclusive product line, which would create mixed messages for the consumers and an assumption that products in the catalog were of lesser value. This would erode the brand image of the core business, which is essential to success.
Sears and JC Penney were recognized as the weakest portion of the mass retail market, tended to lack cosmetic consumers, and did not currently have the selling cosmetic infrastructure such as beauty advisors.
Entry into this market would likely cannibalize direct sales business and upset the sales representatives that Avon relies on for the core business.Utilization of kiosks, specialty stores and full-line discount stores also have negatives:Not enough cash to penetrate all markets simultaneously. A staggered approach would be necessary and would be based on the success of the previous campaign. This dilutes any possible success over time.
Avon does not have the necessary retail market relationships for entry into the specialty stores and full-line discount stores. This is a major weakness for the entire strategy (see more below).
There is not enough prime retail space for kiosk expansion in the US.As part of the market development strategy, Ms. Jung also contemplates the expansion of Internet based sales because growth is significantly below projections (1% vs. 8%). However, this would further cannibalize the direct sales and the current Internet strategy with e-representatives is proving too costly and needs to be reevaluated.
