StratSimMarketing is a comprehensive marketing strategy simulation based on the automobile industry that demonstrates the impact of marketing decisions on the other functional areas of the business. Marketing strategy is at the core of all decisions in the simulation. Teams target consumer segments and B2B opportunities based on market attractiveness and core competencies, using advanced marketing research techniques such as conjoint analysis, perceptual mapping, and concept testing to identify their customers’ needs and interest.

Much of the complexity of the automobile industry has been simplified to allow participants to focus their time and energy on strategic issues. However, we’ve retained as much realism as possible to make it easier to quickly understand the overall environment.
Our marketing strategy simulation, StratSimMarketing, addresses the following issues:
Students assume the role of the marketing team taking over one of five companies competing in the domestic automobile industry. Some companies are positioned as high-end niche producers while others are more value and volume driven. Each company begins the simulation with three vehicles and then must decide how best to improve their sales through improved performance in current markets and/or entering new markets. Optionally, students may compete in the B2B market and/or negotiate license agreements with other firms in the simulation.
