THE CHALLENGES
Access to Market.
For the business to continue to be sustainable, largely depends
on its ability to continue successfully source new contracts
within its sector of operation (mining). And for this to be
possible, depends on the business ability to strategically
position itself well within the mining sector and its ability to
successfully link its service offering directly to the business
target market.
At the time when the business was assessed, the business had
no marketing plan to help improve its market presence within
the mining sector.
Upon the assessment of the business using Seda internal
assessment tools, the following business challenges were then
identified:
• Access to Market, Marketing & Promotional Materials – Business
had no marketing and promotional plan to help business improve
its market presence within its target market and therefore
effectively link its service offerings to potential target clients.
