Problem Identification

● To set the media mix and budget for APHK's four makeup and skin care brands: ETUDE
HOUSE, LANEIGE, Sulwhasoo, and AMOREPACIFIC.
● As, tourists shopping in Hong Kong from mainland China comprised over half of the company's
sales. However, in the face of a declining number of tourists and the shrinking of luxury goods
spending, the managing director had to consider the marketing tools in the customer decision
journey; competitive positioning; and the distribution of the marketing budget between
traditional and digital channels in the upcoming bi-monthly campaigns.
● She need to strike an appropriate balance between recruiting new customers and retaining
existing customers within APHK's overall strategy for Greater China.
