Blue Sky is only three years old and is successful enough that it now needs a formal marketing plan to obtain additional financing from a bank or private investors for expansion and the launch of new products.\nEXECUTIVE SUMMARY\nThis five-year marketing plan for Blue Sky Clothing has been created by its two founders to secure additional funding for growth and to inform employees of the company’s current status and direction.  Although Blue Sky was launched only three years ago, the firm has experienced greater-than-anticipated demand for its products, and research as shown that the target market of sport-minded consumers and sports retailers would like to buy more casual clothing than Blue Sky currently offers.  They are also interested in extending their product line as well as adding new product lines.  In addition, Blue Sky plans to explore opportunities for online sales.  The marketing environment has been very receptive to the firm’s high-quality goods—casual clothing in trendy colors with logos and slogans that reflect the interests of outdoor enthusiasts around the country.  Over the next five year, Blue Sky can increase its distribution, offer new products, and win new customers.\nThe company description summarizes the history of Blue Sky—how it was founded and by whom, what its products are, and why they are unique.  It begins to “sell” the reader on the growth possibilities for Blue Sky.\nCOMPANY DESCRIPTION\nBlue Sky Clothing was founded three years ago by entrepreneurs Lucy Neuman and Nick Russell, Neuman has an undergraduate degree in marketing and worked for several years in the retail clothing industry.  Russell operated an adventure business called Go West!, which arranges group trips to locations in Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho, before selling the enterprise to a partner.  Neuman and Russell, who have been friends since college, decided to develop and market a line of clothing with a unique—yet universal—appeal to outdoor enthusiasts.\nBlue Sky Clothing reflects Neuman’s and Russell’s passion for the outdoors.  The company’s original cotton T-shirts, baseball caps, and fleece jackets and vests bear logos of different sports—such as kayaking, mountain climbing, bicycling, skating, surfing, and horseback riding.  But every item shows off the company’s slogan:  “Go Play Outside.” Blue Sky sells clothing for both men and women, in the hottest colors with the coolest names—such as sunrise pink, sunset red, twilight purple, desert rose, cactus green, ocean blue, mountaintop white, and river rock gray.\nBlue Sky attire is currently carried by small retail stores that specialize in outdoor clothing and gear.  Most of these stores are concentrated in northern New England, California, the Northwest, and a few states in the South.  The high quality, trendy colors, and unique message of the clothing have gained Blue Sky a following among consumers between the ages of 25 and 45.
