be spent on some of the best videos, books, tools or articles you will find
on strategic marketing and strategic account management. Simply go to
http://www.market2win.com to find out more.
Still not sure? This is what past players say about the game:
"Market2win is a brilliant game which I would recommend to everyone in
marketing. I have learnt so much in the 7 weeks I played the game. I gained
an in-depth understanding of SWOT, Segmentation, Key Buying Factors and Value
Proposition. The simulator allows you to see in real time what impact the
decision you make have on your business. When I started the game I was job
hunting, the skills I learnt gave me the confidence to apply for a marketing
job which I got. I will be applying what I have learnt in my new job. Coming
from an IT background I must say the simulator interface is very impressive.
I like the feedback we received at the end of each week and also the reading
material you provided. Thanks!!!!"
- Gathoni, CRM Executive, UK
"Playing the game was a good experience for me and would be the same for
any strategic marketer or market strategy student. Comparing it to other
simulation games I did during my studies and training, I believe the
Market2win game is much more strategic and more customer oriented than
similar games which are more sales oriented in nature. This game makes the
player feel the importance of both long-term and short-term decisions and
focuses more on value propositions to customers."
- Hussam, Marketing Manager, Jordan
"The Market2Win game is an excellent tool for testing and developing your
marketing abilities at strategic level. Having only recently gained the CIM
Postgrad Diploma, it helped me use my new skills in a highly competitive
market and provided confidence in achieving a winning position."
- Kevin, Special Markets Manager, UK
"I truly recommend this game to all marketing professionals"
- Pedro, Business Development Consultant, Poland
"Market2Win is an excellent opportunity for anyone currently involved or
with an interest in strategic marketing. Players will benefit from actually
applying a SWOT analysis, BCG Matrix, DPM and Segmentation to their virtual
organisation. In an ever changing market and with competitors competing for
market share and profitability, Key Buying Factors and Value Propositions
must be consistently reviewed to stay ahead and satisfy your shareholders!
The simulator is very user friendly and intuitive and the feedback after each
period closes was exceptional. Highly recommended and great fun. Thank you."
- Jason, Sales Manager, UK
"What I liked about the game was mainly the competition and seeing the
results at the end of each period. That was pushing me to do more and to keep
on trying to catch competitors on their segments and to strengthen my
position on my own segments. The value proposition as much as other
information about the product, profitability of my company and its
competitors is very clear and understandable. It was easy for me to manage
and use."
- Kaouther, Marketing Lecturer, Tunisia
"This was a wonderful concept and an awesome opportunity for us. Thank
you Market2win!"
"I had fun like anything and apart from that learned segmentation,
targeting, positioning and marketing education - all part of one
programme...10: 10!"
- Rubradir Ghanti and Vipus Singal, MBA students, UK
