skin health. Not only skincare for the face but also for lips as well. Lipstick became mandatory
stuff for today’s people especially women and gays. We combined both color lipstick as well as
skincare ingredients for your lips. Glossmetics finds the best ingredients to add to our stick of
lipstick. Our product provides high-quality and affordable prices. All of the processes were
produced abroad it was all imported stuff. Our brand competitor can only bring a good
pigmentation but never provides lips care recovery ingredients and the price was similar. Each
lipstick was around $24 while other companies selling around $40 for this quality product. Our
product considered as triple benefits because it can apply in three spots on your face. It is not
only just lipstick, but it can also apply as a blusher and eyeshadows as well. Customers can also
choose their own color, and style of their lipstick.

products.
2. Making more choices for customers to choose a lipstick that both decorates their lips
and also takes care of their lips as well.
3. To raise awareness about using too many chemical combinations in lipstick products.
Reflection
This project makes me learned so many interesting and significant things about marketing and
advertising. I learned strategies to make the people interesting in our product and methods to
attract customers. I learned how to set the price properly with the quality of the product. I
learned to create the packaging to make it more interesting and also it makes me see how
important the appearance of the product is since at first, I never thought about that. Making the
attractive packaging can qualify the product inside even if the product is not that interesting but
packaging can really make it interesting and attract people. I strongly believe that studying this
will make me can apply the knowledge I have learned to use in my future.

The 1990s saw the rise of various frozen or to-go food companies and one of the most
popular brands was Lunchables which sells to-go lunch kits for children with crackers, ham, and
cheese. However, because of the processed ingredients, lack of fruits or vegetables, and plastic
materials used to produce the products, it is not only unhealthy for children but also
unsustainable for the environment. Hence, I came up with Healthable Lunchables, which is a new
edition of Lunchables that is healthier and more eco-friendly. The main food components
includes the vegetable crackers, plant-based meat, nut milk-based cheese, and real fruit
gummies. The tray will be made from oil- and water-resistant paper and the plastic cover on top
will be made from recyclable plastic which will be easily compostable in the landfill.
Objectives
1. Meet the rising health consciousness trend by providing a healthier alternative to
traditional Lunchables products.
2. Encourage children to eat nutritious foods.
3. Being more environmentally responsible in terms of packaging and ingredients.
4. Make Lunchables available in vending machines in school so students can easily buy
or access them.
Reflection
I definitely had a lot of fun working on this project. This is actually my first time designing my own
product so it was a bit challenging for me. However, after I got my idea of what to do, it was
actually quite easy to write out everything in the report. I got to use the knowledge I gained
throughout the year, including the 4Ps, different marketing, promotion, and pricing strategies,
market analysis and so many more on this project and it helped me understand my lessons a lot
better than before because I got to adapt and use it in real life on my own. Designing the
packaging and building the actual product was also quite an enjoyable process because I got to
see my ideas come to life. Because of this project, it also made me realise that so many things
had to be considered and thought about before creating a new product. From the environment,
to customer demographics, to competitors, companies have to spend a lot of time trying to make
their products suit the needs and wants of as many customers as possible.

Design Story
Product description
This product originated from one of the 90’s puzzle games toys. We try to come up with a
product that combines both trends in the present and 90’s trends. This will satisfy those who
miss the 90’s vibe and people who like to challenge themselves. Our product can also be a
collectible thing since we will design the product into the collection depending on the present
trend. The product will be in rectangular shape, there will be the pieces of the puzzle, number of
pieces depending on the size of the product. The pieces can be moved around on the board to
arrange into a complete picture of the design. We have 2 choices for our customers which are
the ready to buy product, the product will be designed by us, and the customizing product, the
customer can customize the design by themselves. For the ready to buy product, our shop will
design it on our own by using the inspiration from the 90's and will only provide the product in
specific size. Therefore, the customer can customize their own product by choosing pictures, type
of border, and size. We will also provide the design services for any customer who wants some
ideas from us.
Objectives
1. To be able to satisfy the customer by making their customized product as similar as
what they plan it to be.
2. To be well known in the puzzle toy market.
3. Get good feedback from the customers.
4. To have a greater amount of sales every year
Design to Market Strategy
In the first month, we will provide some discount promotions for customers who buy over
1000baht. We also make some activities to keep attracting our customers to buy again by giving
coupons for customers who help us to promote our product by review and give feedback for us
on their social media. The coupons can be exchanged for a monthly special gift. We also use
psychological and optional product pricing as our price strategies to make customers interested
in buying our product. We will also open the workshop to make others interested in joining and
buying our products. For the product itself, we think that it is a new idea to the market and the
90’s trend vibe of the product is well combined with the customers’ preferences. We also let the
customers to have free choices of how the product outcomes will look like. From the point that
customers are free to design their own products, we can have more example products which will
attract different groups of customers to buy.
Reflection
I have learned many new things from researching and going through all of the processes in this
project. It was a little bit hard for me on the first step, thinking of the product's ideas, because I
did not know much about the 90's. I need to research more on the 90's, about what was popular
during that time. After I have the final idea, I need to research the market trend in the present
and use that information to analyze the SWOT analysis. Then, I need to think from that point
about what marketing strategy will be used so that the customer will choose to buy our products.
I think this work is a little bit challenging for me, but I also find that it is interesting at the same
time.

The plan of new business strategy is under a theme of bringing back the 90’s. After the
spread of Covid-19 situation many people focus on living at home, decorating their house,
cooking food, collecting items such as plates and relaxing with scented candles during work from
home or even on a day off at home. From a New Normal way, the trend of home decoration to
be less is more is another indispensable lifestyle. Scented candles are considered one of the
popular items during the pandemic. It became one of the items that many people cannot live
without, and it certainly fulfills happiness and makes our home a better place. Lighting a candle
and enjoying a cup of tea is an incredible relaxation at home. For this reason, I came out with the
idea of Scented Candles under the theme of the 90's movie. Customers are able to enjoy a
romantic scent of one of the romantic indie classic movies called Before Sunrise and a scent that
brings customers back to their childhood such as Fan Chan. The brand doesn't only aim for
teenagers as a target customer but the scent is provided to suit every age.
Objectives
As the home decoration industry is increase rapidly the goals of our business are
1. To be one of the popular scent candle brand in Thailand (a well-known scent candle
of Thai brand) and reach 200 thousand follower on Instagram within two year
2. To make a profit of more than 50 thousand baht annually
3. A brand that everyone can afford from middle to upper class customers
4. Gain more customers by delivering best service and products
Design to Market Strategy
In pricing strategy, if we talked about romantic movies during the 90's we could say that it is
Before sunrise. It will give a scent of caramel, vanilla and light coffee that gives a feeling of love
at first sight that doesn’t want to tear apart. Another movie that is very well known by Thai
people is Fan chan. It will give a light scent of baby powder and a combination of oatmeal,
butterfly pea and musk that gives a feeling of pure cleanliness and childhood memories. The size
of the candles will be two sizes small and large. Small size will be 140 grams. It can burn for about
30-40 hours. Large size is 330 grams. It can burn from 60 to 75 hours. The candle is made from
100% natural soy wax. The price of our 90’s candle has two options which are small size with the
price of 290 baht and large size with the price of 590 baht. The platform that our brand is going
to sell is Instagram, Facebook and website. The reason is because Facebook is most used in older
people and Instagram application is used the most in teenagers. For the promotion, I provide
free delivery for customers and a discount 50 baht for next time purchase. Moreover, for the soft
opening we will give a tray for all customers who purchase our product as well as a small written
hand with a famous quote on each movie.
Reflection
The theme of our business is to bring back 90’s. It was challenging for me because I was not born
in the year of 90’s so I have to do the research. For this reason, I pop up the idea of movies that
released in the 90’ s and now the scented candles were very popular among teenagers and
people who love home decoration. I chose to combine these two ideas so it ended up by making
a scented candle in 90’s movie. During this project, I have experienced that running a business is
hard because you have to be creative and the business need to have something that unique from
others business so that it can attract customers. Moreover, you have to put lots of efforts and all
the tactics to make your business grow.

Product description
The product is a perfume with the concept of a titanic movie. It is called “The Heart of the
Ocean,” which comes from the diamond in Rose’s necklace from the Titanic movie. The package
of the product will be in the shape of a heart-shaped blue diamond. It will be put in the treasure
box surrounded by colorful tiny crystals. Thus, it will look luxurious and has high value. The
company brought the trend of Titanic back and connected it with the perfume because we
wanted to attract more new customers. Titanic is one the most famous movie in the 90s’,
especially in western countries. Also, the concept of the necklace and that of perfume are similar,
which is boosts people's confidence through their appearance. Therefore, I decided to develop
the necklace from titanic to become the perfume.
Objectives
1. Expand the business to other countries’ market, especially the western countries
2. Attract the new customers, especially who like to collect the perfume package
collection
3. Develop the normal perfume to become more interesting
4. Increase the value to the perfume from its package
Design to Market Strategy
This perfume is a special collection in which there are only 1000 pieces in the world. It is
considered a natural fragrance since all ingredients are natural. Also, due to its appearance, it is
unique from the perfume in the market and can attract the customer’s sight well. Moreover, the
pricing strategy is value pricing to serve customers’ high expectations of products’ values. The
price of this perfume is high to represent the superior quality of the perfume. Also, it has a high
price because this perfume has a limited amount, so the price shows how rare it is. Furthermore,
this perfume will be sold only from Belle Cilegna’s website and Belle Cilegna’s shop. There will be
a few shops in Thailand, Japan, and France, which will be located at a shopping mall where many
high-end brands are located. Lastly, we would promote our perfume through worldwide artists
by inviting them to join our product launch event. We would ask them to promote our perfume
through social media so that their fans and celebrities’ friends can see it. Therefore, we might
receive support from the artists’ fans and gain new customers like other celebrities.
Reflection
In this project, I have applied the knowledge that I have learned from the marketing class, such
as the marketing strategy and 4Ps. I think this project is useful a lot when I have to plan for
launching the product in the future. I learned that the first thing I had to do was set the marketing
goals and objectives, such as expand the market size or gain more customers. I also learned that
I have to research a lot before producing any products, such as the political laws, trends,
suppliers, and customers. I had to survey and understand the customer's needs and interests
before coming up with ideas for launching the product. I needed to focus on my target customer
and how can my product attract them. I had to know the pros of my product that can beat
another company within the same industry. Also, I had to analyze the strength, weaknesses,
opportunities, and threats. Thus, I could know about my product better. Moreover, in this
project, I had to analyze the 4Ps of this product. This caused me to learn more detail about my
product. I had to think about the price strategy that I used, the place where I sold this product,
and how would I promote my product. I think this project is essential for the manufacturers since
it helped them to learn more about their products. Lastly, during this project, I tried to be creative
and came up with many ideas. I had observed many companies' markets, including their strategy,
promotion, strength, and target customers. Therefore, I think I have learned a lot more about
today's market.

A tied dye crop top with a butterfly print, which brings back both the 90’s crop top
trend and the 90’s tie dye trend. The product will have a combination of 2 colours with the screen
of the butterfly representing freedom and aesthetic.
Objectives
1. Mixing the traditional tie dye shirt with a modern shirt screen.
2. Keeping the tie dye tradition to go on to the next generation.
3. Being the only shop selling tie dye shirts that does not look like a cloth for the elders.
4. Making the trend of wearing tie dye shirts to become popular among teenagers again.
Place : The product will be sold mostly online, but it will also be sold in 90’s shop. I will focus on
online shop, because it is more accessible for teenagers to reach and to recognize the product,
which also helps to create the trend. To become a shirt shop that is in trend, the shop needs to
be viral among many people especially teenagers. Nonetheless, the quickest way to become hit
and viral is through the social network such as Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, and more. We will
create our online shop through all of those mentioned platforms. Selling the products offline is
also another way for customers to reach the product.
Price : The product’s price is ฿250 , which is an affordable price for a crop with print. This price
range enables people from teenagers to buy it.
Reflection
From doing this project, I had learned more about the product of the 90s. I sensed that the tie
dye one is one of the best product that can be adapted in order to be sold in today’s world even
though it is not in the 90s. I learned that adding some decoration or ideas to the product will
significantly increase the sales of the product. I also learned that many marketing promotions
can fit will with this product. I really believe that the product that I create can really be sold in
the real world.

Product description
Cassette tape is an analog magnetic tape used for recording audio and for playback. It was
first developed by the Philips company in 1962. And the Philips company released cassette tape
to Europe on August 30,1963. When people think of cassette tape they might think of rewinding
the tape by fingers, pencil or even using the rewinding machine which its function looks similar
to how the wire organizer works. And it would be more comfortable, convenient if customers
can organize and keep their wire properly in their bag. And it would be more aesthetic if it’s in
the form of cassette tape which brings back the 90's vibe and is attached to the back of the
phone case.
Objectives
1. To help and fix the problem of unorganized wire in the bag or can keep the stuff
inside to bring customers an easier life.
2. To become an effective multifunction product that also has an aesthetic image and
brings back the 90’s vibe.
3. To attract the trendy teenager by our aesthetic design and function from our product
Design to Market Strategy
Product or service: For the product, o ur product came up with a unique idea than other brands
with a very unique function of mixing cassette tape with a phone case. Cassette tape which not
just brings the aesthetic for the case but also can keep the stuff in it. Our brand also provides 3
colors of cassette tape case. There will be a transparent one, black and blue. With a cool quote
“my life is messy, but my stuff doesn’t” which expresses the function of our product, and our
brand also provides stickers for decorating and customizing the case by themselves. And for the
packaging our brand will pack the case in the eco-friendly package in the form of a cassette tape
machine.
Price: For the price, since our brand targets and focuses more on the teenager, we set the price
by concern about the price and don’t want the price to be too high when compared with another
brand. So we set a reasonable price that every teenager can reach and afford. So the price of our
product would be around 500 THB. Our product’s price is much lower than our 2 competitors
(casetify and loopy case) for casetify, its price is more than 1,000 THB and it has no function. For
loopy cases, its price is also more than 1,000 THB. Even though it came up with a cool function,
it is not that aesthetic. So it will engage people to buy my product that has both aesthetic and
functional features at a much lower price.
Place / Location: For the place, since our brand is the new starting brand. So we are going to do
the business via online first. And promoting on social media. We provide both websites and social
media accounts for online shops. And after our brand becomes a bit well known we will sell our
product at a multi brand store at the mall in Bangkok to expand our customer market and to
become more well known. And also at Siam discovery because it is a place where we display a
lot of creative stuff and unique style stuff which is famous for most teenagers which is our brand
target.
Promotion: For the promotion, our brand going to promote our product through social media
and if the customer promotes or posts our product through social media and tag us on the social
media. They’ll get a discount for next time purchase. And we are going to send our product to the
influencer to become more well known. For example, if they use our phone cases for mirror
selfies they are going to have a lot of people spotting our product
Steps of the product design
Reflection
Phone cases is a best way to express ourselves and 90’s ideas but it not that unique so I come up
with an idea of attach the cassette tape in the back of the phone case. Because it not just
aesthetic but it can also make teenager’s life easier by keeping their stuff in it. I think it is a unique
and good idea which suit with a teenager. For the product I create it in the form of mockup
because it’s hard to find the material in this situation. And from doing this project, it makes me
feel more confident at the real field.

Product description
This product is called ‘Telepathy’ which is a phone case with a pager model figure at the
back. If you look back at the 90’s, pager or beeper was very popular in that period since there
was no smartphone yet. Most teenagers used it to send a SMS message to each other through a
call center, but the message will appear on the device.
Objectives
1. Product: Attract new and retain customers
2. Pricing: To compete with competitors' business
3. Pricing: Set the price not too low
Price: Obviously the price is quite an important thing to sell a product, so I decided to set a price
of this case 200 baht and the text card about 35 baht. The component of this phone case included
the case itself and the pager. The pager alone will cost about 100-200 baht, but the case will cost
not more than 50 baht per each. Another optional component is a text card which costs 10-50
baht. The quality of the product will be good enough that the customer can use this phone cover
for a long time and I want the customer to have a great impression with the product.
Place: The locations I am thinking of are Siam square and JJGreen because from my observation,
many teenagers go to Siam pretty often and JJGreen is a market or place to look for vintage stuff
like clothes, bags and more. However, both of these two location’s rent cost is too high, which is
about 30,000-40,000 per month and it might take away my income a lot. However, I decided to
make my business an online business because COVID-19 affects those markets and people are
usually shopping online instead. The platform I will promote/sell this product on is Shopee and
Lazada since they are the most popular online shopping application in Thailand.
Promotion: The promotion, to spread the word about my pager phone cases, will basically
include giving away some stickers to stick it on the pager or some offers such as, buy 2 text cards
free 1 card. Also I will create a discount on Valentine month which is in February because I think
this pager is very suitable for someone to buy as a gift to their partner.
Reflection
This last quarter project teaches me how the design of the product affects the amount of people
who will get attracted by it. Furthermore, to start a business or even have my own business
already, to create a new product is not that easy and fast. It really takes time to think of the
strategies that I need to use for attracting target customers. I think that observation is also an
important factor that might make me succeed in my business by observing competitors, so that
I know what I should make, which can pull many people and maybe include their customers to
come buy my product. It is not just that I have an idea what product I want to create and I can
start right away. I have to calculate the profit, money that I invested in the beginning, and other
things I need that will take out some of my money. Promotion, price, place to sell, and product
are very significant because they are the factors that will help me planning on marketing and
selling products and maybe in the future I can use my knowledge from this project for when I
start my own business.

piece or sign that can make people recognize that it is from the “Friends” series. And to make it
more fun, the product will be packaged as 2-4 random characters/items for people to guess and
have fun with our product. The characters include Rachel, Phoebe, Monica, Chandler, Ross, and
Joey. Our product can be both a decoration piece for the customer’s place or be displayed on the
shelf for the collector. The product will be made from cleaned recycled plastic for our ecosystem
and the size will be 4 inches long and 1 inch wide. The packaging will be made from paper with
logo of our company and filled with variety of color.
Objectives
1. To recall the memories from the “FRIENDS” series and make it into something that
the fan of the series can collect
2. To promote our product to go along as the trend of the series has returned
3. For our product to be accessible for all age of people
Design to Market Strategy
Product: The product in each collection will include the main six characters in the outfit of an
episode that is selected by the customer before the launch of each collection, a special character
from the series, and main points like the furniture that can be recognized as a piece of the series.
In addition to the product alone, we will have a mobile application that the customer can
download on their mobile phone for free. The app will allow the customer to see the whole
collections of our product, we will have a virtual checklist for the customer to keep track of which
product they collected and which one of the products in each collection that the customers don’t
have. The app will also allow the customer to scan the product into the app and it will show
characters and items that the customer have in the app, the customer will be able to take
pictures of themselves and feature the items that the customer owned into their picture.
Price: Our product will have 4 different price points depending on how many items of the
collection the customer wants. A packaging of one item will be 250 baht, a packaging of two
items will be 450 baht and a packaging of three items will be 680 baht. When buying a package
of two, the consumer will save 50 baht compared to a customer who buys two of the one item
packaging. And when buying a package of three, the consumer will save 70 baht compared to a
customer who buys three of one item packaging. When the limited collection comes out, it will
cost 300 baht and it will be the packaging of one item. Because the items in each packaging will
be a mystery until the customer opens it, customers who don't get what they wanted to
complete their collection will continue to buy it again until their collection is completed.
Place/Location : Our store will be located in the shopping mall, stationary shop, and will also have
collaboration with food shop like McDonald as special collection to get our product got there.
The product of ours should be easy to access for the customers who are fans of the series and
also for those who might not know about the series. And because it is common that there are a
lot of people in the shopping mall, multiple types of people will pass by the product and there
are chances that they will be interested in our product. Even though seeing the real product is
always better than through the screen, our product can also be purchased online through our
website and Instagram direct message for those who may not be able to come to the storefront.
Promotion: To attract customers to purchase our product, it is important to give them offers that
will make them feel like they are gaining special benefit. On the first purchase, we will give the
customer a free coupon discount code when the customer signs up for our email newsletter. It
will contain information about the new collections and when there are sales, also providing the
customer with a special coupon for the customer to use in their next purchase.
Reflection
In the process of doing this project, I had learned a lot more knowledge and also the use of it/
how to apply it to real product. Things that I learned consist of marketing analysis and how there
are so much detail going into it and it’s not just from our head, we need to do a lot of research.
Another thing is that marketing strategy is really important in doing business for to drawing
customer in and for them to be interested in our product. This project really made me
understand how much work goes in when starting a business.

Back in 1997, the technology did not bloom in that era. But how it did make tamagotchi to
be influenced and became popular toys. Also, it was not like regular toy, it makes people interact
more to the toys. As much as you take care of them, they will become stronger of mentally and
physically. All over the world until sales of more than 82 million devices. My ideas popped out
while using my griptok and holding it. I have a question: why can’t I play with it? So, by saying the

the market. It costs around 200-300 baths. Mostly the product will get a high price from the
tamagotchi. For tamagotchi, I apply thermosetting plastic that is durable with the temperature
so it won’t have any effects. The costs will set a high price because of its quality by comparing
with another competitor we have a higher price. I will sell on both on-site and on social media. I
will sell at the stationary store, fashionable store (for example, vintage or SOS at Siam), and
technology store. By selling our product on social media, I will use the website and promote on
a variety of social media. I will focus on the advertising that make the brand image look nice by
promoting on social media. If the customer has a question, we will have a communication
channel on many platforms. If on-site, I will have a sample product to show.
Steps of the product design
Reflection
I learned to research many websites to make sure it is accuracy also able to compare the
information and the graph. I know the material to make the griptok stronger to be able to fit with
any cases so I need to study the glue tape types. I need to study the plastic material of the
tamagotchi to be able to fit with any temperature to be use with any places. It makes me realize
that creativity skills are as important as math. Creativity need to have nice not only product but
also brand image to the customers. Additionally, I need to look in reality about my brand so it
would be better to improve and think about the brand itself. It is my norms for marketing to
make the product already that stay flexible so it could improve further more. From this final
project, I need to adapt the knowledge since the first lesson. I suggest that by just a small detail
for example the price I decided to end with 0 not 9 to be more valuable. Also by doing the report
I have to analyze my own product which provide both advantage and disadvantage.

Our product is called the “Tamagotchi Squishy.” As is said in the name our product is a
squishy that is used to help the customers relieve and reduce the stress that is accumulated from
their everyday life. The squishy will be in the shape and figure of a Tamagotchi which was popular
during the 1990s. The size will be just about the same as a real Tamagotchi making it easier to
grip and handle.
Objectives
1. To help people reduce stress.
2. To help keep the memories of the Tamagotchi era
Reflection
Our product is an uprising trend that is popular for both adults and children. It is a product that
is based on something that was popular back in the 90s, the Tamagotchi. The reason why I chose
the Tamagotchi was because I remembered how I used to play with it when I was a kid. That is
why I chose it because I wanted to remind people of something that was popular back then.
There were some obstacles such as how I would put the Tamagotchi into a product. At the end,
I decided on making a squishy in the shape of a Tamagotchi. When people squeeze the
Tamagotchi looking squishy they might be reminded of this popular trend back then.

Reflection
As I start doing this project, I know that it wouldn’t be easy. However, I never knew that it would
be this hard and complicated. I started off thinking that I would be making a brand producing
scrunchies but I couldn’t get the right designs and started to remake so many of them until I
realized that it was not the right choice for me. I then thought of things that not only women can
wear but every gender can which are bags. Nonetheless, it was not any easier than making the
scrunchies. I was not really considering the time and due date as much as I should so if I have a
chance to do it again I would want to make the product and analysis even better than this time.

“Tweedies” is a scrunchy made up of tweed fabric which its texture is unique and looks
fashionable. Tweed fabric is a wool weave manufactured by natural wool. It is the combination
of 90’s idea and today’s fashion which is tweed fabric. The scrunchies are used for hair tie and
also can be an accessory for the wrist. It is for sensitive hair since they will not cause hair loss
when tying up. There are 2 sizes available for the product which are S, 16 cm, and M, 19 cm. This
will give the opportunity to consumers who have different hair thickness and wrist size. It is
recommended for every girls and women because hair is considered one of the important things
for them, they should choose the best item for their hair to take care of. Also, this item will make
their lives easier since they will help them to get rid of messy hair during the day.
Objectives
1. Bring back the 90’s trend for both children and adults
2. Make scrunchies become popular for today’s world again
3. Gain profit from only changing the packaging
Design to Market Strategy
Tweed scrunchies are difficult to find in the normal market since this fabric type is not flexible
like other normal fabric: silk and velvet. This product is handmade, so it would be neat and
detailed. It is also for people who are fashionable since people who buy can also use scrunchies
as wrist accessories. The product is the combination of old fashion with today's trend, tweed
fabric, which is now being popular for making skirts and other wears for women. We set the
scrunchy price at 199 per piece since the product is handmade and very detailed. It takes at least
20 minutes to finish the product neatly. Tweed fabric is more difficult in terms of cutting than
other types of fabric. Moreover, this fabric type is more expensive and rarer in the market.
Therefore, the scrunchy will be a bit more expensive than the common one in today’s market.
But when comparing the price with the product, this will be a reasonable price to buy.
Steps of the product design
Reflection
This unit teaches me about the combination of crucial marketing strategies in order to create a
business plan which brings back the 90’s trend through the product. The product I decide to make
is tweed scrunchies. The scrunchies were a very popular item before 2000. I think hair accessories
are still important for girls and women since most of them have medium to long hair length. At
first, I thought that this project would be the hardest one I ever did in this semester because the
goal of the project was to combine the essential knowledge of marketing class. By the same time,
I also agree that this project is detailed and not easy to be complete. It requires a lot of effort to
complete different parts. However, this make me become more creative since I have to do the
brain storming before creating a product and the package.

“Mustang” is the best-selling product of our company. It came up with minimalistic
conceptualized and vintage style that were popular for nowadays use. Ford’s Mustang is a series
of American automobiles manufactured by Ford. In 1965 Mustang became the most successful
vehicle launch since the 1927 model A. From these data, my desire to create this trend back into
nowadays fashion so I decided to screen Mustang cars on the middle of the shirt with the plain
and minimal concept so the background wallpaper is white rather than other color. Despite this
product having limited access to customers, the customers that favour the car will be more
interested in the product than those who are not.
Objectives

Reflection
This project I’ve learned so much about marketing and business. I’ve learned that opening a
company isn’t easy. There are tons of things that we need to know and learn. At first I thought
that this might be easy and not that tough for me. I thought all we need to do is think of a product
and draw a final product. It made me think of when I was a kid, we liked to pretend that we’re
selling something, paying for a product, and doing the cash thing in the cashier. In reality, starting
a business is not easy, we have to think as a customer and question ourselves all the time that,
if I’m the customer, will I be satisfied with the product. Since this work is an individual work and
I took almost 1 week to finish this, is a very short amount of time. I’m proud of myself that I can
manage time even though I’ve got other assignments to complete.

especially ideal time. As a result, there were a ton of '90s movies characters every girl wanted to
be. All of sudden, our team brings this desire and transforms it into a real product which everyone
and every age can afford. The product lines are separated by the characters we choose for the
customers to get into the full-range transformation. Furthermore, we adapt the modern
cosmetic’s technology with the actual product that they used for the actress in the 90s. Our
products is also no animal testing and Cruelty free brand. We create the products you tell us you
wish existed. We believe in thoughtful design, and non-toxic products. But most of all, we believe
that beauty is about having fun, wherever you are in your journey.
Objectives
As a brand that puts fun and expression first, Eiga is redefining the beauty industry by
fusing the

5. Earn at least a 20 percent after-tax rate of return on our investment during the next
fiscal year.
Design to Market Strategy
The products of our brand will take place in online plat form—website, facebook, instagram, and
twitter —in order to reduce the cost for the actual store and to collect the big data in order to
improve the product, identify our target audience and customers accurately, and allow
marketing to be optimised and to use methods that work, rather than trying numerous different
avenues. We Sign up for the service in store at the NYC showroom and the pop-up shops in
designated cities in Thailand, the US and Korean during the promotion for the new campaign for
the customers to see the real product and raise the engagement between the brand and
customers. For the promotion of the product, our brand will make the video tutorials for the
makeup looks by the makeup artist. Moreover, we will approach our customer by sponsoring the
micro influencers and beauty bloggers to promote our product. Also our blog, Eigacosme,
featured interviews with women who talked about their skincare routines and their favourite
products, thus building a dedicated and significant audience over time. We used content
marketing before and after its launch to educate customers on how beauty products should be
used, and to inspire new ways of use. Furthermore, we include special offers, promotions and/or
events that can generate buzz. This will help our brand/blog gain significant traction and buzz to
grow customers.
Reflection
With theme of 90’s, I did a lot of research in order to understand the marketing, the trend, and
the lifestyle of 90s people. I was struggle with the product as I have too much ideas for it;
however, I decided to bring my interest to use in this project. I combined the 90s movie
characters that I like and the makeup trend together as I wish the older can bring back the
memories and the younger can create the memories. The hardest part of this project is we have
to be creative and unique from others.

This assignment was definitely one of the most time consuming assignments I have ever done,
but it also taught me a lot. Doing the report increased my creativity skills as I had to think of a
product from the 90’s, but still relevant in today’s world. It increased my analytical skills for
marketing as there were so many aspects to doing a report, such as the customers, the cost of
operations and competitors. I had to apply many things that I have learnt through out the year

Product description
My product is mostly focused on cross-body bags with the shape of cartoon characters,
which make from fabric. I use two kinds of fabric a Polyester fiber and Spandex fabric imported
from Japan. For the Polyester fiber, I will use the outer of the product as a design of characters.
The Spandex fabric will be used as a lining of the bag for the accurate thickness of the bag to
produce the stuff of the customer. Also, our product has two lengths of sash for the bag, a short
sash, and a long sash. The sash will also use polyester fiber, which is similar to the outer of the
product. It can be removed and changed to another sash. Moreover, there are two sizes of bag,
which are “CHIBI-size” and “TANNI-size”. The CHIBI-size is a tiny size about 6 inches and TANNI-size
is a normal size about 8 inches. Our design will be unique from other brands because we design
a bag with cartoon shape. It will be compatible with several styles and attract more customers.
Objectives
1. To reproduce famous characters from the 90's to the world again. Mostly, the project
is focused on cartoon characters from Ed, Edd n Eddy.
2. To represent a new design of bag from cartoon characters and become a well-known
brand to all around the world.
3. Expand the business to western countries' markets because Ed, Edd n Eddy is a
character from North America.
Reflection
After completing the project, I have learned many things about to begins a company and starting
from the first products. The most important thing for this project is to research data, it was very
challenging because we work at home during COVID-19 situation. We need to research many
things such as supplies, price, and other steps. Then we need to set the goal and started to follow
the steps to reach our goal. I think this project was very helpful for the beginner, who wants to
start a company. It is a basic thing that every company should face before becoming a well-known
brand. According to the project, I had been researching for market analysis that includes
environmental analysis and consumer analysis. In this part, it was an important part for the
company to begins a product. Then we will continue with SWOT analysis, which makes us focus
on our strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. In my opinion, it makes us get to know
more about our product. Moreover, the marketing strategy is also another important part. It
makes us research for more details of 4Ps, which very useful for our products. However, every
part of this project is important to the products. To conclude, I think this project can be useful
for me in the future. It can help me for starting my own business and do other tasks. I feel that it
very enjoy in design the product's part. Also, the research of suppliers for the product is very fun.

As in nowadays, wireless earbuds takeover normal earbuds. This product is called Radiair
which stands for radio and airpods. I got inspired from radio that was popular back in the 90’s
and adapted with the airpods case which has been used widely in these days. My goals are to
make my Radiair popular and bring back the radio trend and having a target group of teenegers
and people who use airpods who like it in trendy fashion.
Objectives
1. Bring back radio that was popular back in the 90’s
2. Make Radiair well known
Price- The price for this Radiair will be at 299 this price is not too high for a good quality and
creativity design that gets you into the mood of the 90's. I use the price strategy by putting the
price end with 99 which will make the customer feel like it looks cheaper.
Promotion- for promotion I will give customers a discount based on the amount they buy and
buy during the festival. Such as if you buy 2 get second for 50% discounts and do each promotion
in a short period of time this would motivate the customer.
Product- This product is made of good quality rubber which will have highly protection for
customer’s airpods. Due to the price of airpods it is very high so customers consume to have a
good protection for their airpods.
Steps of the product design
Reflection
From this final project the problem that I faced is that first I don’t know what product I should
do. I have a hard time finding an idea for this product. However, I ended up with this airpods case
called radiair. The fact that there is not much information about radio but I already finished with
the product, so I decided to keep on working with this product.

Accessory such as necklace, bracelet, or anklet have been popular since 90’s. They were
popular because of the power of music. One of the styles that was very popular is Grunge style,
for example choker, leather cuffs, gothic crosses, or safety pin bracelet. However, the today’s
trend has been changed. Those Grunge style was left out. Today’s people prefer to wear
something modern and simple. Therefore, our company wanted to bring back those trends from
90’s and convert it to be more modern which came out to be a bead bracelet. Choosing a modern
color and simple design. We also make it unique by combined our product with the today’s
cartoon trend which is princess movie from Disney. The reason why I choose to combined with
cartoon’s trend is because my target customer is usually a kids and teenagers whom are actually
attracted by cartoon.
Objectives
1. Convert 90’s accessories to be more modern
2. Make kids have more creativity
Price
The price of bead bracelet would be 69 baht including the 7 percent taxes and shipping
price. With this price, I would get a total profit of 14 baht for each order of bracelet. Moreover,
this price is cheaper than any other shops.
Place/Location
Our shop provides both online and offline platforms dur to the wide range of our target
customer that might affect the difference of preference on buying things. For the offline shop,
we would sell at some local shop that can be found easily near BTS station or school.
Promotion
- If the customer buys three bracelets, we will provide them an extra decoration pendant
for them to decorate their bracelet to be more unique.
-CSR project. Every purchase of 3 bracelets, we will take 10 percent from our profit to donate
for an orphan.
Reflection
This project is what I never think I will do it before. I have to use a lot of creativity to create
something that have to attracted the customer to buy my product. I know more about the
marketing strategy such as how to set the price, the promotion strategy, or even how to name
a brand. I also learn to be more patient too because making a bead bracelet is not easy. I have to
make it bead by bead which I found it to be a very frustrated thing when I accidentally dropped
it or messed up the colors. Lastly, this project definitely going to build the strong base for my
university major or future career.

The name of my brand is “Turn Back Time”. My business idea originated from my personal
preference. I am actually a fan of the 90s. For me, vinyl is one of the most fascinating products
from the 90s. Therefore, it inspires me to bring back vinyl to the modern world. Currently, the
vinyl trend is starting to come back. Many people are looking for a vinyl disk. Moreover,
decorating house trends are very popular among teenagers and adults. Whether you live by them
or feel totally unaffected, from popular paint shades to furniture choices, everything designed
for our homes is influenced by a wider trend. Vinyl is one of the best choices for decorating your
house. The choice of home design styles often changes from time to time. Very rarely do people
stick to one design style or one decoration style for a long time. As people usually buy clocks to
decorate their house, they will buy a clock that suits their house style. Our brand provides many
styles of vinyl disk wall clock. Our vinyl wall clocks can suit every house style such as cozy,
modern, minimal, and etc. Whether the style of house you have, we can make it more beautiful
by our vinyl clocks. We have two designs of clock which are normal vinyl wall clock and custom
vinyl wall clock. We have custom vinyl clocks provided. The custom will be carving discs into
cartoon characters, famous landmarks, famous movies, and etc. Moreover, we can paint a disc
into a beautiful picture as well. For movie fans, they can buy our carving movie scene vinyl clocks
to decorate their room. It will be unique and has only one in the world.
Objectives
1. Become one of the most famous clock brands in Thailand
2. Get more attention from people who not interested in vinyl clock
3. Gain more than 70,000 Baht profit annually
4. People more interested in vinyl
Design to Market Strategy
The product that I came up with is a vinyl clock. The clocks have many designs according to the
styles of vinyl disks. The price will start from 200 Baht. It will get higher when the design is custom
and hard to make. Our brand provides many styles of vinyl disk wall clock. Our vinyl wall clocks
can suit every house style such as cozy, modern, minimal, and etc. Whether the style of house
you have, we can make it more beautiful by our vinyl clocks. The vinyl clock are made of old left
over vinyl discs from old grocery stores and recycle records. They have many types of vinyl that
are not expensive. Moreover, it increases the sale for these grocery stores too because people
usually buy things in shopping malls. I will order different styles and types of vinyl disk because
our brand has a custom vinyl wall clock too. The location of our store will be in Ari, Bangkok
because there are many shops around this area. Moreover, there are many companies and
buildings. This area is like a landmark in Bangkok, therefore I have a chance to get foreign
customers as well. I will also sell it through an online platform. I can put the ad on and attract
more customers. I will also promote my products by giving it to my acquaintances and if they like
it, they will spread the idea of my products to other people. I will promote it through an online
platform which provides more costs. Moreover, providing our customers a 5% discount for buying
three vinyl clocks, and 10% discount for buying 3 vinyl clocks with one custom vinyl clock. I will
also provide coupons in order to thank my customers and to encourage them to continue buying
my products.
Reflection
This project helps me to thinking back of what we learned in a Marketing class since the
beginning of the year. It helps me to understand more about each topics and allows me to come
up with new ideas. The concept “Bring Back the 90s” is very interesting to me. I have found that I
can express my ideas more than I thought. I got to bringing back those knowledge that I already
forgot and used it in this project. I realized that I have faced many difficulty while doing this
project. However, I do my best and happy with the outcome.

Product description
Therapeía was established in 2021 during the Covid-19 outbreak. Most people feel stressful
and need therapy for their life. I came up with the idea of scented candles which is trendy at the
moment but add the unique gimmick which is based on 3 iconic movies from the 90's which are
Home Alone, Romeo & Juliet and Pulp fiction. Each scent is based on the tone of an iconic movie.
Home alone gives a Christmas vibe so it will fit perfectly with vanilla. Romeo and Juliet is romantic
so it fits with rose and lastly pulp fiction which fits with a strong scent like pomegranate in order
to make the customers get the same vibes as if they are in those movies.
Objectives
1. To provide the best services and quality products to customers in the hope that they
will return to our shop
2. To focus on the better quality product with an affordable price in order to attract the
competitors’ customers
3. To follow an eco-friendly trend in order to help save the environment
4. To have the customers use our products efficiently and in the most effective ways
Design to Market Strategy
Product or service: For the product, there will be 3 scents in total which are vanilla (home alone),
pomegranate (pulp fiction) and rose (Romeo and Juliet). The product will use reusable ceramic
plant pots instead of plastic for the multi-function uses. The packaging will label that it’s cruelty
free and free of paraffin in order to follow the global issue trends so people can decide to support
us. The design will label the characters from the movie and the customer will also receive a
random card which has a random character with their quote in it. Customers can return the
product before using within 7 days if they have any problem with the ceramic or the product
Price: The price is around 600-700 Baht because my brand is new and is now focusing on the
scented candles only. If the price is high as jo Malone or bath & body works, it won’t engage
people to buy it because there isn't any guarantee yet that my product can be on their level. The
lower price can engage more customers to reach out and decide whether my product is good
and effective. Teenagers are also my target group so this price is more acceptable for them
Place / Location: Since the ideas of ‘Therapeia’ are new, it would be better not to take risks and
start with cheaper selling venues instead such as e-commerce websites or Instagram. Once the
brand gains popularity, I can present the activity booths or mall kiosks. I need to wait until I
generate a steady income. The scented candles have a different shelf life from the foods. It
doesn’t expire but might fade away over time (around 2-3 years) so it isn’t a main concern.
Promotion: Giving out the brochure at the mall seems so outdated because it annoys and
disturbs people. One effective way is to find an influencer or idols that review the products by
sending the products to them. Once they review it for us, the product will gain popularity because
their fans are likely to buy things that they use. Talking about in-store promotions, testers are
important. The smell of the store needs to engage the customer and there should be testers for
the customers to sniff and choose for their products. Other grimmicks like drawing and winning
the prize after spending 20$ (for example) is an interesting choice. If the customers already spend
19$, they will be likely to spend something more to reach the price that I set.
Reflection
I am satisfied with my final product because I have a good time management and finish
everything before the deadline. At first, I don’t know how to make my product differentiate from
the competitors but after thinking about the global trends and multi-function uses, I think it’s
really suit and satisfy my target group which is teenager. I am very happy with my concept, ideas
as well as my final products. To be honest, I want to do real scent candles but due to the covid-
19 situation, it is very hard to go outside and get the equipment that I need. I have already search
for the product online but the items didn’t satisfy me and didn’t suit with my eco-friendly concept
since most stores still use paraffin and I am really looking forward to find reusable pots. I created
a mock-up instead by drawing the designs that I thought in my head into my ipad. I put a lot of
effort on this product design such as logo, matching color scheme, card design etc. Overall, I am
happy with my final project and really looking forward to the real field in the future.

Reflection
There are only a few obstacles in doing this project. At first, I lacked an idea to meet with the
concept. However, when I realized what to come up with, the work went along pretty well.
Moreover, I spent too much time thinking about how my company is going to be organized and
looked like, so I can’t manage time wisely. All in all, I enjoyed making the product and decorated
it with the recycled products. This work came out as well as I had expected.

Our product focuses on the trend since the 1980's. At that time, Sailor Moon was the
character that many girls wanted to be. So, we would like to make that dream come true. It is
something that everyone uses on a daily basis because it can help people have confidence. It is
a perfume that has a signature of each character. Each of our customers likes a different
character and it makes they want to enable us to support customers. There are 5 main characters.
So, the customers can choose to buy from the character that they liked as a child. Claire de la
Lune perfume has a beautiful bottle design. When the customer uses it, they will feel like they
fell into this manga. In addition, customers can be assured that they will not have any allergic
reactions because our perfumes are made from organic ingredients. So, children can use as well.
Objectives
1. To reenact 90's manga concepts to products.
2. To be the number one in the non-chemical perfume industry.
3. It has a price that teens can purchase (not expensive).
Price: Every year there will be new branded perfume brand launches. It can make our profit lose.
However, the trend of organic ingredients still remains and we will develop the product to be
the number one of the perfume market. Also, we use all organic ingredients, and it's affordable
for teenagers. So, teenagers can easily purchase. We are using value-based pricing (setting a price
based on the competition charges). Because most competitors have a higher price and their
targets are also teenagers. We want them to be able to afford it. Our products have a price of
299 baht (normal size). For collectors, if you buy 5 characters as the normal size with packaging,
it will cost 1299 baht (196 Baht discount). Because we want to sell all of the characters at one
time and it can attract collectors to collect. For the first 3 weeks, we have a 100 Baht special
discount. So, the total price is 199 baht. All of the prices we all used psychological pricing strategy
with the customers.
Place: Our stores will be located in the shopping center and department store because our
products are products that customers need to taste and smell. It makes our brand must have a
storefront. We will place our store in the middle of the shopping center for customers to have
access. Also we will expand our branch around the countries to allow customers in every province
to be able to access. However, we also have our product via on the website and Instagram to
guarantee customers who have previously purchased can order products by themselves at home.
Promotion: Even though this cartoon is famous, it's not that our products can be sold all year
round, so we run promotions to attract customers. For the grand opening promotion which is
100 baht off for every customer. Moreover, there is an activity on Instagram by uploading our
store in the story IG and tag 3 friends. We will give you a gift and taste of the perfume. Also, if
any customer buys during the festival such as New year, Valentines and customer’s birthday
month. We will have their name engraved on the perfume bottle for free.
Reflection
In this project , I have learned about marketing strategies and how to target specific customers.
When I was doing this project, I felt that it would be a difficult task and it's the truth. I started
with the idea of a product and began to find a group of customers that we will sell. The hardest
part is market Strategy. It's something I'm very confused about. and I spend a lot of time with it.
I try my best and put a lot of effort into it. Even if the result is not as satisfying as I had hoped, I
am proud to have made it. Next time, I want to make the marketing strategies better than this
time because I am not detailed enough.

Apple Watch strap with 90s design. Our product was made of leather that helped make the
product look more valuable. Customers can look for the information at our social media:
Instagram, Facebook, and Shopee. Each product cost 350 baht per each. In conclusion, I designed
an apple watch strap because I did not see anyone else do it before. So, my objective is to be the
first business to design the Apple watch strap with the 90s design. Apple watch’s strap made
customers memorize and know what the significant symbol is. It is for people who like the 90s or
vintage thing, this is very perfect. Also this product can help customers' daily life more joyfully.
They can enjoy changing their strap to match their clothes. Make them feel more confident.
Objectives
1. Being the first business to design the Apple watch strap with a vintage design. Apple
watch’s strap made customers memorize and know what the significant symbol is. It
is for people who like the 90s or vintage thing, this is very perfect.
2. Helping customers' daily life more joyfully. They can enjoy changing their strap to
match their clothes. Make them feel more confident.
3. Successful from doing business. Get a lot of profit from selling this product. Became
famous from Apple watch strap selling. Become better from competing with
competitors.
Price: The price of each product is 400 baht. Average price that I have researched is about 200-
500 baht for an apple watch strap. A box of 3 pieces is 1150. To buy a box set, an apple watch
strap costs 383.33 baht per piece. Buying a box set is cheaper than one product. I compare the
price with the standard from Shopee applications. The leather is quite expensive, so I think it
should be a little bit high.
Place: I decided to sell my Apple Watch strap at the Apple store. I see most people buy Apple
Watch straps at the Apple store because it is more reliable. People can come to buy an Apple
Watch and buy my product easily at that time. We do not have to sell by ourselves, we just have
to share money with Apple. I think it is better than selling by ourselves. People will engage with
our product at the Apple store more.
Promotion: Our product design focuses on fashion and beauty. Maybe, we would promote our
product on some fashion shows to engage people who are interested in fashion. I think a fashion
show is the best place to promote our product. Also, I think we can hire some models to wear
our item and promote it on a lot of social media, so we can specifically break into the fashion
market.
Reflection
I love this project because it makes me feel like I am a real business person. I have to think a lot
about the product. I did not ever think that to do business, we have to look for many things. First,
we have to think about the product we are going to make. We have to research what other
people think. We also have to think about other factors, such as tax. We have to think about 4ps:
price, place, product, and promotion. We have to realize our strengths, weaknesses,
opportunities, and threats. I should design the product related to covid-19 situation. I have to
decide to sell products online, so people will buy our product easily. I think this project is very
useful. Maybe in the future if I do the business, I can use this knowledge to adapt in the future. I
think doing business is more than what I have thought before.

Reflection
As I did this project, I know that to start making a business is not easy because it requires the
potential to think and work, the energy to think how to make the product improve also I need
to research the target customers otherwise the product will be useless. Moreover, I need to put
my effort on my product and make customers understand the concept of the product and make
it different from other brands.

The product is the insulated stainless-steel bottle which was designed with the famous 90s
animated movie, “The Little Mermaid”. The product is manufactured to meet modern eco-friendly
trends since people are more aware of the plastic pollution and they choose to use reusable
products instead of the single-use product. Our stainless-steel bottle has high durability,
corrosion resistance, long-lasting lifespans and is friendly to the environment as both the bottle
and lid are recyclable. The product also provides other useful features such as 100% leak-proof
lid, BPA free, dishwasher free, condensation-free, insulation that keep drinks hot for 12 hours
and cold for 24 hours, and built-in added filter. Another uniqueness of the product is the design
which changes according to each character in the movie. It gives a chance for customers to have
fun customizing the color of the bottle until it meets with their desires. Plus, every 10% of our
profit for selling this bottle is donated to help the marine environment so it is worthy for
customers to get the quality product while helping those marine lives at the same time.
Objectives
1. Attract more adults who like The Little Mermaid to buy reusable bottles for their own
needs and wants.
2. Be able to gain the market share and get 20% after-tax profit.
3. Introducing a high price and high-quality product to attract the target audience.
4. Not only the design and concept, I want my reusable bottles to be accepted as a high-
quality, useful and easy-to-use product that meets with customer’s needs.
Reflection
This project gives me an opportunity to use what I have learned in the past semester to build my
own brand and also my product. It is very challenging to finish within the time that is given since
there is a lot of stuff to do. However, I have fun researching the new information about the
reusable bottle market and brainstorming the idea that should be possible to use in the real
market. It also improves my writing and analyzing skill as I need to explain my thought clearly so
that other people can understand and can picture how my product look like and how my strategy
works.

This product core function is to preserve the environment, because this bag is made out of
durable material so the customer could reuse them many times. The art style of the bag is based
on the era of the 90's and 80’s. The inspiration of the bag is from the popular color pallets of the
90’s mixed with today’s modern abstract art, and another side is reference from the popular
movie in the 80’s “Back to the future”. I choose to use the guitar in the movie instead of the car
because I think that this is the most obvious thing except the car that is being noticed from the
movie. I use the image of the guitar mixed with the glitch out style that is being popular among
the teens in this day and age.
Objectives
1. The objective of this product is to remind people of the 90’s. Our target audience is
teenagers. Due to the fact that “Back to the future” is quite popular in the 80’s and
90’s, many people from that era will notice the objects in the bag or the color pallet
that have been used in the bag. These factors could remind them of the 90’s era.
2. To preserve the environment, by creating a long life bag which can be reused many
times due to the strong material. The art screen on the bag won’t go away as easily
like other bags.
Product: A normal tote bag, but with more durable material so it can be reused many times.
Price: The price of the product will be at 299 baths, which is around the average price.
Place: The product will be selling via online store.
Promotion: We will promote the product using social media and online advertising.
The tote bag is very popular among the teenagers. Most tote bags are not very durable, so we
make them more durable so it can be used a lot of time, which is connected to the environmental
trend. The thing that distinguishes us from normal tote bags is that our style is referenced to the
90’s, which is uncommon to the tote bags. The price of each bag will be at 299 baths, which is
considered an average price for this kind of bag. We will only have the online store only, so we
do not have to consider where the customer lives, since they can order our product from
anywhere. We will promote our product on social media, because it's the thing that teenagers
use the most these days, so our product could be easily spread by it.
Reflection
For the first design, I chose the colour that reminded the people of the 90’s, mixed with the
abstract art design that could remind people of the 90’s vibes. I try to use geometric style art
because it's becoming a lot more common nowadays so this could represent the modern age. In
this art style, I referenced the guitar from the movie “Back to the future”, which is a very popular
movie from the 90’s. I did a survey and the result is that people recognize this item and know
that this is from the movie the most. I mixed the guitar style with the glitch like animation to
make this art style look futuristic.

Reflection
This project teaches me a lot of things including how to do a business, how to engage with the
customers, how to set a price for the product and much more. I know that doing business in real
life is complicated and hard, so I need to learn it along as I’m growing up to be able to use it in

In the 1990s, Bread Sticks dips are one of the most famous snacks that kids, teenagers, and
adults of any age eat during the time. Most people could recall the brand “ยิ ้มยิม” or the term “ขนม
ปั งแท่งจิ ้ม” in the Thai language. Nowadays, the popularity of this legendary snack is fading away but
there are still numerous brands sold in convenience stores. Nonetheless, the brand “Sticked” will
bring the Thai breadstick snack to another level. Our product aims to emphasize ‘clean’ food,
which means that each breadstick will contain very few calories to lessen detrimental effects on
customer’s health. Moreover, our packaging and processes will not use plastics and other non-
removable resources to help the world cope with environmental issues.
Objectives
1. To bring healthy alternative of breadstick snack to the market that will satisfy
customers.
2. To use loyalty program and CSR projects to draw in and maintain customers.
3. To locate the store at places that would maximize sales
4. To price the product reasonably through environmental analysis
Design to Market Strategy
Our main products are breadstick with dark/white/strawberry chocolate dip (may have other
seasonal flavors), and other products include juices and cafe beverages Prices range from Small
size 89 Baht, Medium size 149 Baht, to Large size 189 Baht *this prizing is done to persuade
customers to buy medium size instead of small size*, Juices 79 Baht per glass. We aim to place
our store at department stores near BTS or offices, routes where workers move around in their
normal routine.
Furthermore, we can keep our customers by doing a loyalty program. The program planned
will include a membership card that will allow customers to collect points to get prices that
ranges from free products from our company i.e. from simple main products such as breadsticks
to higher prices product such as ‘Sticked’ key chain. Because the environment is something many
customers are aware of, the CSR project is also something we will include - all our packaging will
not include and plastics to reduce non-removable waste and 1% of our revenue will be directly
donated to WWF, a charity organization. Not only will this loyalty program and CSR project
increase our sales, but it is also a way to promote our brand. Lastly, we will set benchmarks and
sales reports along the way along with collecting customers’ information to widen our scope of
the market and customer needs.
Reflection
Personally, I saw the brand Dunkaroos on the website ‘ gopuff’ while researching on most
nostalgic snacks. I recognize that it is very similar to the Thai brand ‘Yimyim’ therefore I tried to
elevate it to a higher class food and beverage company by researching customers’ needs,
locations, and more. Thereby, researching the background of the type of market you will be faced
with can be very helpful - it will show you what your company can incorporate to thrive in the
competitive market. Moreover, I recalled most of my knowledge learnt in class through the
completion of this final project as I proceed to each section of the marketing plan. Nonetheless,
I also learned new things such as packaging designs and products that are nostalgic in the 1990s.

This product is inspired from the hit tv-series “ Queen’s Gambit” on Netflix. The founder of
the company, Phimraphat Soonjun, discovered that the majority of the chess sets designs are
minimal and traditional therefore she wanted to modernize the product by mixing the new color
scheme and famous cartoon characters in order to make the chess sets look more diverse and
more interesting. In the box, we will provide a full chess sets with variety of colors and designs
such as a Disney, Marvel, Pixar, Harry Potter, or DC chess sets. Our product will include all the
characters as a chess piece, the chess board decorated in a particular design based on the
cartoon characters, and also instructions on the rules of the game for new chess player.
Objectives
1. Create a variety of chess sets by not only limiting them to always be in black and white
color, but to explore the various types of unique color scheme towards the chess sets
to suit each customer’s favorite color or design.
2. Alter the customers’ perspective of chess by conveying the message that “Chess is not
a game for genius only, however it can be fun and engaging like the color that our
company selects to represent the game.”
Reflection
After I finished this project, I had definitely gained more knowledge about the whole process of
establishing a marketing plan such as researching about the historical back ground, industries
analysis, competitor’s analysis, target customers, and 4Ps strategies. However, the most
challenge section was the product making part. It was very complicated for me to change the
color of the chess boards and created the characters for each chess pieces. I overcame the
obstacle by consulting how to make the product with my sister who is great at making D.I.Y.S.
Lastly, I would say that I was success in making this project despite some rough paths that I had
faced during the process and this was an excellent task that will prepare me for my upcoming
business in the future.

This final project reminds me of all pieces of knowledge I have learned in marketing class this
year. It helps me to understand more about how to use these strategies and lessons and apply
them to reality. This project also allows me to express out my ideas and thoughts within the
concept “Bring back 90s”. When I first started researching popular products, I have found a lot of
interesting product. There is a lot that caught my eyes but looking at the details, some of them
are not possible to finish in-class time. I realized that a lot of things we want to make might not
be successful and cost a lot. So, this project also taught me how I need to estimate the time and
amount of works whether I will get it done on time.

My business idea to produce the product is inspired from both the 90’s cartoon character
and 90’s fashion which are Powerpuff girl and lipstick. The Powerpuff Girls consist of the red-
haired, level-headed leader, Blossom (Red); the sweet, blonde, and often underestimated
Bubbles (Blue); and the quick-tempered, black-haired Buttercup (Green). I have developed the
product by using quality natural lipstick and also more modern packaging design that include the
Powerpuff girl. I’m going to use compostable cardboard tubes with a cardboard lid. Moreover, I
will also make the labels compostable by using a water-based glue and vegetable ink which can
be broken down in a compost bin or customers can even reuse it as a jewelry box. Using natural
color for lipstick instead of a chemical colour. This is good for both the environment and also the
customers. I also want to combine these two things together by having different scents
(strawberry, blueberry, apple) to represent different characters (Blossom, Bubble, Buttercup).
Therefore, when customers use our lipsticks, they will recall the trend during the 90’s.
Objectives
1. to make 90’s cartoon characters to become popular again / become number 1 in the
market by promoting products to different markets: online, websites
2. to offer customers a better quality product and a more natural product to increase the
price and create the perceived costs: using metal as a lid instead of plastic.
3. to produce / make the lipstick with eco-friendly products to replace plastic materials:
offering good quality products with reasonable prices
Design to Market Strategy
My business mainly targets teenagers, ages between 16-25 years because most teenagers in
Thailand are most likely to use lipstick for their everyday life and they also interested in cartoon
characters like Power puff girl. The company will meet the needs of the consumer by having
lower prices when compared to the competitors with good quality products and having a unique
design of packaging that will make them recall the trends during the 90’s and it can also be re-
use and compostable.The market channel will be distributed mostly via online and social
platforms, and also open a retail shop in the fashion mall in Bangkok. Therefore, this is very
suitable for teenagers to purchase our product.
Product or Service : I have unique ways of representing the product by having different scents
for different Powerpuff girls in order to remind them of the cartoon characters in the 90’s. For
the package design, I’m going to use compostable cardboard tubes with a cardboard lid with a
labels that can be compostable and also use natural color for lipstick instead of a chemical colour.
Price : The price is at the competitive price because the cost of the materials is natural. My target
customers are teenagers with less purchasing power so, the price will be 499 baht per piece. The
psychological pricing is employed by using number 9 to play on consumer perceptions. I also used
a penetration pricing strategy by setting the lower price first: give 50% off for the first 100 people.
This is for customers to know about our brand and eventually launch into a new market.
Place / Location : My products will be distributed mostly via online and social platforms, includes
retail shops in the fashion mall in Bangkok. This is because most teenagers are capable and most
likely to use social media for shopping things online. At the same time, I decided to also have a
retail shop because some customers might want to look and try our products first.
Promotion : I will use the loyalty program to promote the products :creating campaigns for
customers to get discounts by reviewing or posting our products through their social media. this
will also make our lipstick become more well-known using word of mouth. I will also sell 3 3
different colors pack with a special Powerpuff cosmetic purse for free.

I have put a lot of effort in to it in order to make an effective, fascinating, and can really use for
my business in the future. Therefore, I feel very proud of this work because I have used many
knowledges that gain from marketing class and applied all of strategies and techniques in this
plan. This is also my first time that I have produce the product of my own. I have used a lot of
creativities in order to make my product unique and also connects / relates with the trend during
the 90’s. I have learned many things from doing this work. First of all, I have learned that there
are many factors that we need to considered of producing products to meet with customer’s
wants and can really be sold in the market. Moreover, we also need to compare our product with
other competitor and analyze their SWOT analysis, so we can know what things we should
improve and make it different. Lastly, If I have a chance to have my own business in the future, I
would decisively use this marketing plan as a guide for me to set up my own company.

6. Having online shop in order to cope with the COVID-19 situation
Design to Market Strategy
Target market: Our target customers are focused on teenagers between 16 - 25 who are
fashionable and sociable. The reason is because these groups of people have more time to hang
out with friends and spend money on individual demand mostly, and they love building their
profile in social media in order to build their image also. Nowadays teenagers see each other on
social media, causing teenagers to want to make a unique profile for themselves. Which can lead
to an increase in the number of sales of digital film cameras.
Product: We want to keep the signature of the analog cameras from the 90’s but develop it to
meet with today’s needs. This Digital-Film camera has two main functions. The first function
works as an analog film camera. In order to the take images, this function will require to use the
roll of film. The digital function is the second feature. We provided a slot for the SD card to be
inserted into the camera so that the images could be saved. In order to satisfy our current needs,
we also included functions such as direct import to smartphones or computers, direct uploading
to social networks, add-on filters, instant sharing to other cameras, and so on. We have 3 colors
options for customers to choose which are all black, black-grey and black-brown. Black-brown
color will be the limited one that sells only 666 pieces.
Price: Price is 11,500 baht. We are using competitive pricing strategies. We decided to create 2
exclusive sets of products in our online store. The first one is the ‘Pro Shooter Set' cost 16,999
Baht. The second ‘Beginner Set’ costs 13,999 baht. Due to COVID-19, we will promote online more
by making sets for online only. For the black-brown, limited colored, one, we are not providing it
in the option for the exclusive sets because we still want to keep the value of the product.
Place: We make an official online store on Lazada and Shopee because they are reliable online
shopping application. They also provided worldwide shipping so we can cut cost. For offline store,
we will send our products to big camera, world camera and banana IT to be our distributors. So
that, we don’t have to open our own stores and pay for the rent of the store’s place.
Promotion: We promote our products by celebrities and youtubers as most of the teenagers are
using social medias, so it will be easy for them to see our product. We will send the promotion
details and catalog of our new products through SMS and email address of the customers.

challenging because there are goals you want to achieve creating the products, observe the
industry market, analyze the target consumers, have a pricing strategy, location of the products
that will be placed, and promotions. Moreover, owning a business means you have to gain

would definitely catch customers' eyes are the words on the hat. On this one it will say “ask me”
and “What’s from 90s, me or hat”. The other design would just be like an upgrade version or
adding a black tab with the word Phof written all over it to make it even more unique and
considered as a luxurious product. The product would not only suit the customer's sense of
fashion but will also engage conversation leading to keeping the 90s fashion alive.
Objectives
1. To make people realize that the Bucket hats trend has actually started from the 90s
and It is a legacy that is becoming popular or eventually immortal.
2. To make a product that can engage conversation about fashion trends which is this
bucket hat. People see bucket hats as a fashion trend lately but little do they know that
it has been revived from the 90s. Also, keep the product trendy by creating text that
makes the by-passers see and notice something to question and eventually chat with
others.
3. To help people start the conversation in order to talk with people around them rather
than focusing on their mobile phone.
4. To make a simple brand so unique that it can compete with top brands around the
world.
5. To make a fashion headwear with reasonable prices for middle-class people but having
an extended version with a more expensive price for the upper-class people.
Reflection
At the beginning of the year, I choose to study Marketing because I like to design things and
make product attractive to customer. I also like doing business so I think this would be a great
knowledge to be used in the future. But when I actually got to really study Marketing, I found out
that there are a lot more than making a beautiful package I have no idea about the topic I was
studying beforehand so I think these knowledge is very beneficial to me and my business in the
future. I feel like Marketing is not that hard if you know where to start and what to cover. I am
not a great marketer yet but I believe I have improve my skills in this area a lot.

Toystory thermometer is made for everyone especially children, parents, healthcare
centers. It is sold in every shopping center, online (Facebook, Instagram, Line, Website). Our
company vision wants to invent a new type of the thermometer that can gain more attention
from children. This product is different from other products as we not only make a combination
of toys which many children like with thermometer which needs to be used for healthcare
reasons but also makes it like a solar system to reduce the battery and be safer for children as it
is digital and not contain any content that will be harmful to their body such as mercury that
many companies use.
Objectives
1. To gain more cooperation from children while checking the body temperature as many
children are afraid and tend to be scared when they see a normal thermometer
2. The company will be paid back within 5 years while it should make the highest profit
in the first two years as the pandemic is still in many countries. After that, the
marketing plan should be changed in order to follow the global trend.
3. Our product should be used in many hospitals or healthcare centers especially in the
pediatric ward including in households. Plus, it should save the battery cost by using a
solar system.
Reflection
I learn about how to make ourselves unique and outstanding. The hard thing for me in this project
is marketing strategy but one thing I like about this project is that we can bring back trends in
the past and collab with the modern world to make our product creation.

“Postnet”is the product of my business. It is a poster that uses magnets to hang on the wall.
The design of the product is 90’s movies and shows and also mixes with modern, minimalistic
art. The 90’s trend is starting to make a comeback during the modern day, so there’s
opportunities to create a product that appeals to the trend. The 90’s movies would remind 90’s
kids of the good memories and give the aesthetic 90’s feeling to the newer generation of
teenagers. The design of the product is simplistic which would bring out the purity and true
beauty of the art. With the ideas of the 90’s theme and modern art, it would bring harmony to
the poster. Moreover, decorating houses are also popular amongst teens and adults. Postnets
are for decoration after all. The materials used for the postnet itself are eco-friendly too, so that
would be good for the environment.
Objectives
1. To combine the 90’s trends and modern trends together to create a product
2. To sell an affordable art/decor with good quality materials to teens and adults at the
age 16 to 27
3. To create an eco-friendly product and raise awareness of global warming and about
the environment
4. To preserve 90’s culture and trends in a form of new product
Reflection
When I first got the project, I thought of something unique to sell. Then, it just hit me, a magnetic
poster. I wanted to make it have a 90’s aesthetic and modern art feel to it. So I started to create
my design. I thought of a minimal and modern design and also keeping it retro, it would be
perfect for art collectors of these kinds of art and for teens and adults who like the 90’s trend
and arts in general. It was fun to do this project. I got to think about my own product and got to
create it. It was very challenging, it took a lot of effort and time to research, design, print, and
create the product. Throughout the school year, I create many posters and designs in class and I
feel like now I’ve gotten better at designing, it could help me in the future with my business
career.

Our product is an instant noodle snack for children, teenagers, and adults; we use the
noodle cup for the packaging which helps the customer to eat easily. The target customers are
students, teenagers, and adults who want to bring back good memories from the 90's.
Furthermore, changing the packaging to a noodle cup helps the customer who has a rushing
lifestyle to eat the instant noodle snack easier. Mostly the target customers of this product are
children and students. The product itself comes with just 3 Baht and 2 Baht in the last ten years
which is the lowest price in the market. They have 5 different flavors which are Tom Yum Kung,
sour lemon, BBQ, Corn, and Japanese seaweed. In the market, the general price of a cup of
instant noodles is around 15 to 20 Baht where the instant noodles packs are around 6 to 10 Baht.
Therefore, I plan to set the price for 9 Baht which is lower than the market price and I also use
psychological pricing to create the persuasion for the product itself.
Objectives
1. To increase the value of the product by changing the package from noodle pack to
noodle cup
2. To expand and create the new product segment from food to snack
3. To extant the target consumer in order to wisely reach the customer such as children,
teenagers, and adults
Reflection
I was assigned to create the marketing plan for the product in the 90’s theme. I planned to
redesign the famous Thai noodle snack called “ YumYum Changnoi®”. I am very familiar with this
brand a lot ,so that is why I want to choose this brand. This brand has an interesting way to attract
the customer which gives a cartoon card for every piece. Moreover, the original price is very
cheap which is just only 3 Baht. Thus, I want to increase the brand’s value and create the new
brand’s image.

- This product is the Snoopy home dog. It was inspired by the house of a character in the 90’s.
To create uniqueness the customer could customize the paint, the hand-drawn character from
Snoopy, and the functions added to the house. The first option you can add to the house is you
can change the normal color into metallic or matte, this will make the color have more
dimensions, and more like an amber effect when reflected with the light of the sun. The next
option is the hand-drawn livery of the cartoon characters from Snoopy that are Snoopy, Charlie
Brown, Woodstock, and various others. The last option is really a variety of choices. The customer
could add whatever they want according to their affordability, but our recommendations are the
air purifier for the dog and the air conditioner for the dog. The cost for this product is a bit high
because of the cost of production, the material we use which is real wood, and the effort for the
hand-painted livery as well.
Objectives
1. Our company wants to be the first choice for the customer who wanted to buy a dog
home or wanted to decorate their houses because we are the first brand in the market
to let the customer customize their product
2. Represent our products by advertising them on social media
3. Hopefully, we could get about 40% of the profit in the future because of the production
cost, if there is a lot of order then the production cost will be cheaper
4. We will come up with the new promotion every few months or according to the
occasions
5. Have the customer service, so the customer could call for any problems or the product
is not working properly
6. Come up with the new products to attract more group of customers
Reflection
I think when doing this project I have increased my knowledge about the subject because I need
to come up with many ideas myself such as the SWOT analysis, the objectives, and many more
ideas in the poster. Also I think I enjoyed doing this project because I could come up with anything
I like. I think from this project I could use it to be the idea for the future business if I plan to do it.

we used to paint is also the highest quality we can find in the market. The colors we use won't
wash off easily and will stay on the nails until you remove them. The nail glue provided in the set
would be the premium nail glue. Our nail glue would be different from other companies because
we add artificial chemicals that will help make your nails stronger and even nourish the nails. Our
glue can also prevent the nails from having fungal nail infections. Clip and Claws theme is every
person's uniqueness and style are very important. Some might prefer color and some might be
preferred black and white. Others may prefer leopard print and some might prefer zebra print.
This is why clip and claw have more than 10 designs for you to mix and match and choose from.
We also understand that not every people have the same nail size which is why we have the nails
in SML. This will help the customers to find the perfect size and their preferred color and print.
This is very worth the money you spent compare to the duration of the nail. The nail can be used
again by just reapplying the nail glue and press it onto your nails. The customers can do the three
steps that you once did when you first applied them. This means that you can do your nails
whenever you want.

2. To sell the product in the mass market
3. To gain profit in the first 6 months of the first launch.
4. To produce a convenient product in a high quality

and spending lots of money. Clip and claw would be in the mass market so customers can easily
find clips and claws in their local convenience store. We want the customers to be able to get
their hands on the product. There will be discounts and promotions for customers. Customers
will get a 15% discount when they purchase 2 sets of nails during the first launch. After that, we
might do a discount on special days, for example, Christmas, valentine, etc.
Steps of the product design
Reflection
After I have complete this project, I feel like I have learned many things. The product that I shoe
to do is from my likings. As for me I really like doing nails and the idea was very new. It was very
hard to make it happen but I discover that it can be true. I had fun researching and knowing
information on the nail industry. I learn how each company has to market and use edgy before
they launch a product. I also learned about the 90s 10 which I shoes is the animal print. I just
realize how popular it was and how luxurious it gives us.

Our case is the animal print theme of the 90's. But we made it suitable for 2021 by adding
many features to it. The first feature which we are proud to present is the military standard
protection. This makes our case very strong so it can extremely protect your phone. And the
second feature is the water-resistance of 200 meters for 2 hours. This makes it so you don’t have
to worry about playing with your phone while you are in a place that has water. The third feature
is dust-resistant. So the dust has no chance to get in the case and face your phone. And the last
feature which we like the most is changing the case with a wireless charger. With 30,000 MAH of
battery so you don’t have to have a power bank anymore. It is also easy to use because you can
charge it wirelessly. The case weight is only 50 grams so it is very comfortable to use. The material
we use is plant-based instead of petroleum-based material to reduce energy consumption and
help the environment. The materials we use are plant synthetic leather, carbon fiber, aramid
fiber, and battery.
Objectives
1. We want to pass the world case market and get into the demand of customers. Our
development will change the world of affairs forever.
2. Represent our products by advertising them on social media and make the best
impression on customers.
3. Return on investment by 3 years and earn the profit of at least 50% on each product
4. We will have some interesting promotions for the customers and try to make them
think that it is the best deal.
5. Make customers satisfied before and after the deal.
Design to Market Strategy
Firstly, I am interested in the phone cases because they are the accessory that everyone should
have to protect their phone. So I think it can be related to the animal-print trend because it would
make the cases unique. Secondly, I found that the market for phone cases is very big so I would
like to make it have more interesting features to make it special. Thirdly, I have to learn about
the demand of the customers to understand more about them. Fourthly, producing the product
is not just doing everything for the customer’s demand but I also have to care about the world’s
environmental effect. So I have to find ways to reduce the risks. Sixth, I have to manage the cost
to gain appropriate profit. Seventh, I have to think about how to sell the product and make it
more popular. Eighth, I have to make sure that my product is legal. Lastly, I plan how I can make
the company go in the right direction in the future.
Reflection
For this project, this is my first time to think about the product ideas by myself. I am excited to
research the market deeper. This made me understand that producing the product is not easy.
There are several things to learn and care about. I get many benefits from doing this project by
myself. Business is more fun for me after doing this project. This is an individual project so all of
those ideas come from mine. I use ESLOS in the project to make it better, which is critical thinking.
I have to research a lot so I have to think and manage everything such as time, source, and
information. This can help me very much in the future for sure. I am very proud of this project.

Classic retro gaming PlayStation One design on modern fashion shoes and the packaging
box. The design on the box will be exactly like the PlayStation console that was popular back in
the 90’s. The shoe itself will be the same color tone as the PlayStation one. Our logo will be on
the shoe tongue and on the side along with the shoe. We will also have a small keychain of the
console attached to the shoe for the gimmick as well. Our company also provides an online
service on the PlayStation website for the customer to pre-order and view the product.
Objectives
1. To make people recall the 90’s generation
2. Adapt 90’s theme to today's products
3. To produce a new product line for PlayStation
1. The first step is to design the cover of the product to look like the console as much as
possible. Then put the design on the top part of the shoe box.
2. The second step is to design the lower box to make it look like the side of the PS ONE
console.
3. When the box is ready, we then pack the Play Shoes into the packaging and attach the
keychain to the shoes.

From this project, I learned many essential skills for my future life. The first thing is report skill, it
is important to know how to acquire the information correctly and properly. Creativity is also
another crucial skill and designing a product packaging requires that skill. I learned to plan the
marketing strategy for selling the product as well. Lastly, analyzing the market is another
challenging thing that I learned from this final project.

Back in the day, when Apple music or Spotify didn’t exist, people listened to music on record
players. Then, the rise of cell phones caused people to stop using record players. However,
nowadays, more and more people are buying vinyl record players either for listening to music or
for decorations. But, to use them, people have to buy individual vinyl records which are often
expensive and hard to find. So, I decided to come up with an idea to make a new vinyl record
that is able to not only function as normal but also able to connect to music applications on a
phone through Bluetooth. By doing this, people can listen to any music they want on the record
player, instead of just being limited to available vinyl records. This way, they can still enjoy the
vintage vibe of the record player while saving so much money. And for people who buy record
players for decoration purposes, they can now use them to play their favorite music too. The
record player itself is also contained in box-like small vintage luggage that is customizable so it
can be carried around and played anywhere and will suit the tastes and preferences of everyone.
Objectives
1. Help people save money from having to buy multiple expensive vinyl records.
2. Allow people to enjoy different types of music through one record player.
3. Make something that was once only a decorative object functional.
4. Allow people to customize and match their record players with their tastes and
preferences.
Design to Market Strategy
This product is bringing back the record player trend from the past and changing it so it can be
used in the present and meet today’s trends. With this product, they can both listen to music
normally from vinyl records and also their own music from their phones by connecting Bluetooth
to the player. It will work just like a speaker but the disk will also turn as well. This will look like
the record player is playing a song but in reality, it is from our phones. This way, people won’t
have to go out to find vinyl records of their favorite songs and won’t have to pay any extra money
for a new song. Moreover, this record player is also put into vintage-style luggage that customers
can customize to their liking. The luggage can also be closed and carried around too. This product
will cost around $400(about ฿12,500) which is around the middle price of many record players.
This is because I don’t want it to be unaffordable for many people but I don’t want to make it
too cheap because the materials used to make the record players are good quality and expensive.
The price I set would be suitable for both the customers and the materials used to make the
products. For the place, this product will be sold on our own website online. This is so that it is
very convenient for customers because they can order and purchase from anywhere and the
products can be delivered straight to their doorstep. Lastly, for the promotions, every festive
season like Thanksgiving or Christmas, we will hold a 20% sale on our products to encourage
customers to buy from us and give to others. This way, we can still bring in more sales from old
customers. Another strategy is a campaign that we will hold every year for customers to design
their own products and send them in for the competition. It will then be voted on Instagram and
whoever receives the most votes will get the product for free.
Steps of the product design
Reflection
To be honest, it was a bit hard for me to come up with something that would go with both the
90’s trends and today’s trends. But I really liked this idea I came up with. When I was doing the
report, it took a lot of time because I had to do a lot of research and think about so many things
like the different possibilities or challenges that could exist for this product, or why customers
would want to buy this rather than my competitor’s products. However, after a long time of
thinking, I finally finished the report. I also enjoyed drawing and designing my product too. It
looked very cool and stylish, and I think many customers would want to buy this product as well.

It is a shame that because of covid19 pandemic, I can’t go outside and find the materials for

A flying skateboard using electric power comes with 3 sets. The first one will be the normal
edition will cost 13,400 baht which the color is black with white-line and White with black-line
come with a charger pad and permanent pen if they want to sign it. The second one will be the
“back to the future edition” which will costs 27,000 baht come with the limited design and the
figure of the main character riding a board. The last one will let the customer design their own
board but they have to pre-order 7-14 days they will receive the charger pad and permanent pen
which will cost 16,800 baht.
Objectives
1. To bring back the skateboarding trend and make it go on.
2. Steady growth 20% or more after the first year of launching
3. Make it affordable for everyone, even teenagers so they can try this new innovation.
4. To be the original Flying-skateboard innovation.
5. Have a good quality because the board will often get physical force during the ride.
Design to Market Strategy
Our company's target market is focusing on teenagers because the average skaters are around
13 to 14 years also, teenagers are more likely to try an extreme sport than adults. Furthermore,
this group of customs has more free time to spend on their hobbies. The skateboard trend is up
right now. Moreover, skateboarding is not all about the skate It is a community for people who
love the same things such as clothes, music, etc. So this means if some of our customers buy our
product and bring it to play at the skate park. Our product might advertise itself and they tend
to follow their group to come to buy my product.
All of the editions that I mentioned above if it has any problem or the customer doesn’t like it
they can return within 7 days. I choose to sell the product on my own website and application. In
the application, customers can buy our board and link it with the serial number so if they brought
the insurance, they can keep track of the date and contract through live chat if they got any
problem with our product. Other services are custom and maintenance they can walk in our shop
or reserve in the application so they don’t have to wait.
Most of the sales will take place on our website and application so I don’t have to take the risk
of opening a shop. By the way, I have to open one shop for services and maintenance. I think
about having one big shop like the apple store at icon-Siam and I will open another shop later if
I need to. Customers might ask if they can’t go to our shop how they will fix and custom it. So we
will get your board at your place and if you want to custom it, you have to custom it online and
we will get it at your place.
Most teenagers use social media so I choose to advertise by using YouTube-ads ,Facebook page
and Instagram ads. I want the product to speak by itself. Our advertised video will clearly show
its function and all 3 editions. Giveaway discount if the customer finds a pair to buy one with
him/her they both will get 15% discount or if one customer wants to buy 2 pieces, he/she will also
get a discount. Another way is to give my product to YouTubers and pro-skaters pay them to try
on my product and review. I do this because many teenagers watching YouTube also if their
favorite pro-skater try my product, they will also want to give it a try.
Steps of the product design
Reflection
This project is a very exciting because student have to use things that we learn thought the
school year such as target customer,4p and etc. to create our own marketing plan and come up
with the product. I choose the flying-skateboard which not really exist in real world yet so it is a
very creative idea and challenging one.

I chose marketing in the first place because I know that I like business and wanting to have a
career in this line of work. Throughout the course, it confirms me more and more every day that
this is the right one for me. I feel really comfortable creating works and enjoy every piece of it.
There are lots of skills that I have learn such as pricing strategy. Although I might have some idea
about it, the teacher provided detailed information and example so that I can easily get hold of
the content. Lastly, I really love this elective and I would definitely do it all again if I have a chance

In the 90s plaid pattern is one of the most famous trends. Plaid can be seen in many famous
icons of the 90s. For example, in the movie “clueless”, Bands like Nirvana, The Breeders, and Pearl
Jam rocked plaids in their signature, and empire record. After that it has been used in both high
fashion and everyday look, or even housewares. However, one thing we have never seen plaid
being used on is “lipstick”. So, we decided to take plaid pattern to another level and present a
product that no one have ever seen before. Our lipstick, “Path Plaid”, is aimed to bring out every
customer’s inner confidence, beauty, and uniqueness. Path plaid is unique both in the packaging
and the lipstick’s colors itself. Furthermore, we also care for the customer’s health, our product
is cruelty free and uses as little chemical as possible, by using organic ingredients from nature in
place of the chemicals. We can ensure the customer that we seek for the best quality/healthy
ingredients to produce a unique lipstick that they will never get bored of.
Objectives

Design to Market Strategy
Path Plaid provide our customer with both beautiful and healthy lips. Our design is unique and
we use many features and technology to ensure that the customer will not face common
problems they usually experience when using other lipstick. The lipstick packaging is decorated
with plaid pattern and the lipstick itself is in plaid pattern, every customer lip color will differ
from each other depending on how they blur the color. Our product is cruelty free and uses
organic ingredients in place of chemicals (ex: Manuka honey). We care for both the environment
and our customer’s health. Path Plaid’s price is set at $40. We use competitive pricing strategy:
because we charge a higher price than Maybelline, our competition, to make our product be
perceived as having a higher quality. We also use Premium pricing strategy: We will set the price
higher because when people talk about cosmetics, they will think of something luxurious and
elegant. And because our target group is working women (age 22-60) who have more buying
power. We have many channels to contact/promote our product (social media and our website),
and many branches of store front location (ex: duty free). We also promote our product through
celebrity, influencer, etc. We will have a promotion, events, and games for customer to play with
prizes as our lipstick mini sample, money-off vouchers, discounts, etc. from time to time. And if
customer sign up for memberships they will gain many reward and privileges (loyalty program).
We also constantly ask for customer feedback and their spending so we can constantly develop
our product and also know how to promote it.
Reflection
After completing the project, I learned many things. I also get to use my knowledge that I gained
from learning in marketing and advertising the entire year into use. From this project I discover
how all the topics I learned are connected to each other and how it can be use in real life to form
a marketing plan. Before doing this project, I have always been interested in lipstick myself and
also how the cosmetic industry operates. So, I had fun doing this project and really know more
about how famous brands plan out their market strategy, what they need to do before launching
a product, how they became successful selling those products, and become one of the cosmetic
leaders. Furthermore, I also learned more about 90s trends like plaid patterns and its history. It
was very astonishing how a simple pattern like plaid can become one of the classic trends of all
time, producing a style that people recognize till these days.

Design Story
Product description
Tamagotchu” is a tamagotchi-inspired lip balm that’s both attractive for Tamagotchi lovers
or young adults from the packaging and convenient to bring anywhere with the keychain
originally attached to the traditional tamagotchi. The name “Tamagotchu” came from “Tamagot-
you”, which revealed how the product can help solve the customers’ problem of losing their lip
balm or constantly having dry lips. The colorful and unique lip balm packaging came from the
egg-shaped tamagotchi with modifications of its appearance into a handheld lip balm. The main
concept of this product came from one of the 90’s trends and the original purpose of the
tamagotchi toys where the owners of the virtual pet should be given constant care and attention
to them, or else the pet will die eventually. Therefore, we apply this idea to our product and came
up with the concept that as people constantly give attention to their virtual pets, they should be
giving constant self-care to their own appearances as well and it’s better to have a moisturizing
pocket-size lip balm nearby.
Objectives
1. Develop a product that satisfied all gender
2. Retain existing customers’ loyalty by collecting customers’ information and increase
customers’ engagement through discounts or promotions
3. Solve consumer’s problems through our newly developed organic product that gives
convenience and encourages self-care
4. Earn at least 25 percent after-tax rate of return on our investment for the upcoming
fiscal year
5. Attract new customers through appearances’ attraction of our creative packaging that
brings back the 90’s trend
Design to Market Strategy
“Tamagotchu” is a handheld lip balm in the form of Tamagotchi that’s developed to help solve
the customers’ problem of losing their lip balm or constantly having dry lips. The decorative lip
balm packaging has never been manufactured before in the lip balm industry. The product is
designed for all gender and suitable for all ages as the ingredients of the lip balm are organic and
non-toxic. The main concept of this product we emphasized is that as people constantly give
attention to their virtual pets, they should be giving constant self-care to their own appearances
as well. The packaging also gives convenience for the customers to carry the product around
which will eventually become a part of our customers’ day-to-day activities. Our target customers
could be tamagotchi-lovers of any age group which could consist primarily of kids or teenagers,
but could also include adults as well. The pricing of Tamagotchu will remain constant for the
newly launched designs at about 16 US dollars or 500 Thai Baht, which is reasonable regarding
the lip balm high quality (natural ingredients) and unique packaging. The selling of Tamagotchu
and promotional methods will be done through an online platform or on our e-commerce
website and other social media to save costs and make it easier to collect large datasets
compared to having actual stores. Content-marketing strategies will also be used to educate
customers about the product and show the customers our creative concept which led to the
product development that doesn’t only bring back the 90s trend but also encourages self-care.

Reflection
With the project’s theme of bringing back the 90’s, I gained broader knowledge about the
popular trend of a virtual handheld pet called Tamagotchi everyone used to be obsessed within
the mid to late 90’s. Then, I got to develop my creativity in developing a product out of the trend
according to my own interest in the cosmetics industry. I discovered that the lip care market was
growing in today’s society and lip balm suits my expectation of wanting to create a product that
can be used by all gender. I learned that by researching in detail and well-planned thoughts about
different marketing strategies, I can come up with my own products such as “Tamagotchu” in this
case, which is a tamagotchi-inspired lip balm that’s attractive for tamagotchi-lovers, convenient
to bring around, and encourages self-care on the customer’s daily basis. It was struggling for me
to come up with the idea at first and the research process took a lot of time. However, in the
end, I enjoyed designing, creating a model of the product, or even develop a usable marketing
strategy for it and it would be really nice to actually invent and sell this unique product in the
real world’s market.

Product description
The pet’s bag is not only for dogs but also for cats and other small animals that could be
brought with the owner when going outside. This pet’s bag has a very unique design as it is
inspired by the tamagotchi which was a popular toy back then in the 90’s. In order to respond to
customers' needs and wants or remind them about 90’s vibes, the product is going to be in
tamagotchi shape and style and the color is in the 90’s tones as well.
Objectives
1. To make the brand well known worldwide by using the 90’s trend and fashion back
then to remind people about the 90’s vibes.
2. Responding to the wants of a large range of target customers.
3. Using eco-friendly materials in order to not destroy natural resources.
Design to Market Strategy
Our brand uses the 4p which is price, places, promotions, and product to run the business and
to achieve the objectives and goals. For the price, we try to set the price not different from the
average price of the competitor so our price is going to be in the range of 2500-6000 depending
on the customers. Our brand will have both online and offline shops to make the customers easy
to buy. Online shops will be in Ig, facebook, twitter, line, Lazada, and Shopee. Offline shops will
be at Siam or near Siam which is a landmark of the country. Moreover, we still have a small sales
booth at the pet cafe to expand the target customers. For the promotions, if they buy a lot of
options the price will be less than buy 1 option per time. The one who is buying online will get
the point for discount next time while buying from the cafe will get the point for cafe discount.
And if it is your pet’s birthday they will receive the gift from our brand if they are a member.

Reflection
Since I have been assigned to do the 90’s project, I was kind of nervous because it’s quite far
from what I am and I don’t even know about the 90’s vibes that much. So I research a lot such as
watching three 90’s movies, asking my mom and searching from google. I am interested in the
toy name tamagotchi so at first, I decided to create the crossbody bag but after the presentation,
I’m kind of changing my mind as Ms. Fon said that the pet’s bag came through her mind when
she saw the tamagotchi crossbody bag. Now, I think that was my luck that I got Ms. Fon’s
suggestion about this product because it gives me a lot of new knowledge about the industry
that I never thought about before. After doing this project, I have improved my skill and my
perspective on doing business. It helped me understand more about how to run a business as a
start-up and to be careful in every part of doing everything. Lastly, I think I like doing business
and also still want to be a business owner in order to respond to the customer’s needs and wants.
