Marketing Plan for Commercial Pilot Program
by Manisha Rewani
A marketing plan is a strategic roadmap that businesses use to organize, execute, and track their marketing strategy over a given period. Marketing plans can include different marketing strategies for various marketing teams across the company, all working toward the same business goals.
The Commercial pilot Program is designed for the student interested in pursuing a career as a professional pilot flying passengers or freight. These opportunities include and are not limited to regional/major airlines, charter industry, government, general aviation, corporate flight department, air ambulance, aircraft industry etc. A student may enroll in this course after the student has earned the Private Pilot Certificate. The student will learn the academic knowledge and flight skills to fly in instrument meteorological conditions. The student will then train for their Commercial Pilot Certificate with additional class. The student will hold a Commercial Pilot Certificate single and multi-engine with an instrument rating. This will allow the individual to act as a pilot for compensation or hire in instrument meteorological conditions.
Establish the project's goals
To understand which targets you and your team aim to hit with your pilot, consider establishing clear goals. This allows you to evaluate how well the project performs by determining whether it's meeting the objectives you've laid out. Try to brainstorm these goals with your team by asking them what achievements they'd like to obtain with the study. Setting pilot objectives can act as a starting point for setting goals for the full-fledged project. How well you met the goals set for the pilot can help you predict your success in hitting the milestones for your large-scale project once implemented.
Set the timeline
Once you know the milestones you'd like to achieve, you can determine how long it might take to meet them. Build a set of actions needed to reach each goal and establish deadlines for when you and your team may complete each one. Try to consider the time it might take to gather all of your materials, construct the various tasks needed and analyze the pilot's results. Understanding how long your pilot might take helps you better estimate the time you might require to complete your entire project.
Gather a study group
To ensure your pilot performs effectively, gather a study group to test it out. For instance, if your pilot project is to release a new product, provide a prototype or less established version of the item for your group to try. Consider gathering individuals who are familiar with your industry or the products or services the company sells. They can use this knowledge to provide you with valuable feedback and data regarding how effective the product could be if you released it. Gather around 10-20 people for this study to ensure you gain enough valuable input and opinions.
Offer resources and instructions
Try to have a plan ready for how you're going to present the product and study to participants. Start the study with an explanation of the study's purpose and the information you hope to gain from the process. Provide the team with handouts that describe essential elements of the project pilot and detail instructions for how to participate in the study. Prepare resources and training materials for attendees to reference when testing out the product or service. Monitor how easy these instructions are for participants to follow and adjust them accordingly when launching the full-scale project.
Ask for feedback
In your study materials, request valuable feedback from participants throughout the entire process. Have questions prepared for them to answer as they try different elements of the product or service. You can also add a comments section for individuals to write any additional factors that impact the pilot that you may not have yet realized. Consider holding group discussions as well by asking attendees what they enjoyed about the product or service and any improvements they suggest you add. Take notes during this process and compile a list of highlights and potential risks to consider.
Develop actions to overcome challenges
You can review the feedback provided in the study to troubleshoot and solve any potential problems that may occur during your full-scale project. Add any additional improvement areas mentioned to your list of challenges. You can closely analyze these challenges and develop actions for how to solve them when you implement the large-scale project.
Submit the results and final report
As you build strategies for these potential challenges, determine how much effort and resources it might take to apply these improvements. If you realize after this analysis that these changes are manageable and can remain within a budget that still provides a strong return on investment, you can submit this report to executives or stakeholders. These professionals can provide you with the approval needed to move forward with the official project.
