Analysis
of

via
the
Customer
Close-

that
45%
of
customers
dine

5%
dine
off
the

premises,
46%
bring

and
3%
skip

These
numbers
are
slightly
lower
than
the
findings
from
the
2009
Customer
Close-Up
Survey,
as
depicted
in
Table

below.
This
data
suggests
a
strong
need
for
the
ARAMARK
retail
operation
at
Holy
Redeemer
to
attract
more
customers
to
buy
their
meals
on-site,
rather
than
dining
off-site
or
bringing
their
own
meals.
However,
of
the
45%

Because
Holy
Redeemer
Health
System
is
a
Catholic
health
system,
special
attention
is
paid
to
the
religious
orders
that
are
associated
with
the
hospital
and/or
reside
on
the
hospital
premises.
Holy
brothers,
holy
sisters,
and
Pastoral
Care
are
a
few
of
the
religious-affiliated
orders
that
occasionally
dine
in
the
hospital
cafeteria.
The
brother,
sisters,
and
other
religious
are
treated
with
the
utmost
respect
when
dining
in
the
cafeteria
and
are
given
a
discount
on
meals.
Hospital
volunteers,
employees,
and
members
of
senior
wellness
are
also
given
a
small
discount
on
meals
purchased
in
the
cafeteria.
A marketing strategy is the basic foundation of a marketing plan that involves strategic
analysis
of
the
internal
and
external
factors.
Internal
environmental
factors
include
the
marketing
mix,
or
the
4
Ps,
performance
analysis,
and
strategic
constraints.
External
environmental
factors
include
customer
analysis,
competitor
analysis,
and
target
market
analysis.
A
crucial
element
of
a
marketing
strategy
is
to
keep
marketing
and
promotion
in
line
with
the
missions
and
objectives
of
all
subsidiaries
involved;
ARAMARK,
Holy
Redeemer
Health
System,
and
the
Food
and
Nutrition
Department
at
Holy
Redeemer
Hospital
included.
Internal
factors
play
a
major
role
in
the
way
an
operation
markets
and
promotes
its
product.
The
marketing
mix,
also
known
as
the
4
Ps,
is
one
of
these
internal
environmental
factors
that
includes
product,
place,
price,
and
promotion.
For
the
October
promotion
at
Holy
Redeemer
Hospital,
the
product
was
the
Middle
Eastern
Veggie
Sandwich.
The
October
promotion
was
held
in
the
Holy
Redeemer
Hospital
Retail
Cafeteria
on
Wednesday,
October
16th
during
the
daily
lunch
service
hours
of
11:00am
to
2:00pm,
which
was
the
place
of
marketing.
A
price
of
$4.59
was
charged
for
each
sandwich
combo
and
included
the
sandwich
itself,
a
20
oz.
fountain
drink,
potato
chips,
and
a
pickle.
In
order
to
satisfy
the
promotion
piece
of
the
marketing
mix,
signage
was
placed
upon
the
entrance
to
caf.
A
sample
sandwich
platter
was
displayed
in
front
of
the
deli
counter
with
appropriate
signage
including
a
description
of
the
product,
pricing
for
the
meal
combination,
and
nutrient
information,
such
as
calories,
fat,
and
sodium.
Extra
sandwiches
were
produced
by
the
food
service
worker
in
the
deli
for
the
purpose
of
sampling
the
sandwich
to
potential
customers
during
lunch
service.
The
extra
sandwiches
were
divided
into
bite
size
pieces
and
placed
on
a
serving
tray
with
frilled
toothpicks.
The
samples
were
offered
at
the
entrance
to
the
caf
and
near
the
deli
station
in
order
to
drive
sales.
A
suggested
timeline
for
marketing
and
promotion
execution
was
created
by
ARAMARK
Healthcare
and
made
available
on
Aramark.net.
The
suggested
timeline
was
altered
slightly
to
meet
the
needs
of
the
October
promotion
at
Holy
Redeemer
Hospital.

Maureen
Sickels,
Eileen
Schneider,
and
Kristy
Morris
were
the
cahiers
scheduled
to
work
on
the
day
of
the
promotion.
The
intern
informed
the
cashiers
a
few
days
in
advance
about
the
scheduled
day
to
run
the
promotion
and
provided
them
with
the
proper
signage
to
be
displayed
near
the
sample
sandwich
platter
and
at
both
entrances
to
the
caf.
The
cashiers
were
educated
on
the
goals
for
sales
of
the
sandwich
special
and
encouraged
to
verbally
promote
the
product
during
lunch
service.
With
the
help
of
the
retail
manager,
a
button
was
created
in
the
register
specifically
for
the
Middle
Eastern
Veggie
Sandwich
combo
meal.
Each
cashier
was
instructed
by
the
intern
on
the
importance
of
using
the
newly
added
register
button
for
the
sandwich
special
to
generate
accurate
sales
data.
Before
the
start
of
lunch
service,
the
dietetic
intern
was
responsible
for
assisting
the
food
service
workers
and
cashiers
in
setting
up
all
promotion-related
materials.
During
lunch
service,
the
intern
greeted
customers
at
the
caf
entrance
and
offered
samples
of
the
sandwich
special.
The
intern
was
in
charge
of
assisting
customers
and
answering
any
questions
related
to
the
promotion
during
lunch
service.

7.0 Evaluation
To
evaluate
the
success
of
the
executed
October
promotion,
the
initial
goals
and
objectives
were
compared
to
data
collected
after
the
event.
The
main
goal
of
the
promotion
was
to
increase
sales.
The
day
following
the
Middle
Eastern
Veggie
Sandwich
promotion,
data
was
pulled
from
the
system
to
obtain
the
number
of
specials
sold
and
profit
made.
A
total
of
87
sandwiches
were
sold
at
the
deli
station
on
Wednesday
October
16th
and
21
Middle
Eastern
Veggie
Sandwiches
were
sold.
The
veggie
sandwich
sales
accounted
for
24%
of
all
sandwich
sales
on
the
day
of
the
promotion.
The
first
objective
was
to
increase
sales
of
the
Middle
Eastern
Veggie
Sandwich
on
Wednesday,
October
16th
by
7%
compared
to
the
average
sales
of
the
deli
special
on
the
two
prior
Wednesdays.
Data
was
pulled
from
the
system
to
obtain
the
number
of
deli
specials
sold
on
the
two
prior
Wednesdays.
The
net
sales
of
a
Southwest
Beef
Wrap
deli
special
on
Wednesday
October
2nd
was
16
and
the
net
sales
of
a
Roast
Beef
and
Cheddar
Melt
deli
special
on
Wednesday
October
9th
was
14.
This
yields
an
average
of
15
deli
specials
sold
for
a
profit
of
$68.85.
21
Middle
Eastern
Veggie
Sandwiches
were
sold
on
the
day
of
the
promotion,
generating
$96.39.
This
was
a
40%
increase
in
sales
compared
to
the
prior
two
Wednesday
sales
of
the
deli
special.
Objective
1
has
been
met.
The
second
objective
was
to
sell
16
or
more
of
the
Middle
Eastern
Veggie
Sandwiches
during
lunch
service
on
Wednesday
October
16,
2013.
21
Middle
Eastern
Veggie
Sandwiches
were
sold
during
lunch
service
on
Wednesday
October
16th.
Objective
2
has
been
met.
Being
that
all
of
the
goals
and
objectives
were
met,
the
event
was
a
success.
Because
of
the
overwhelming
success
of
the
promotion,
the
retail
manager
decided
to
continue
selling
the
sandwiches
the
following
day.
On
Thursday
October
17th
25
sandwiches
were
sold,
generating
an
even
greater
profit
than
the
day
of
the
promotion.
On
Wednesday
October
16th,
the
promotion
sandwich
was
sold
out
by
1:30
pm
and
on
Thursday
October
17th,
the
promotion
sandwich
was
sold
out
by
1:00
pm.
All
in
all,
outcomes
of
the
October
retail
promotion
were
positive
and
all
goals
and
objectives
were
met.
