Quarterly Planning Session
We have had a big meeting here in the regional office called QPS (Quarterly Planning Session) to discuss processes and strategies for pricing, forecasting, catalogue planning and catalogue development. People working in these areas in different Asian markets have come here and we have all learned about each other’s work and talked about what can be improved.
One part of these meetings was a workshop where we were divided into teams and we were all supposed to come up with three catalogue themes for 2012 that had a “WOW” effect. I was working with Sharmili (marketing director in India), Ella (forecaster in Indonesia), Kesarin and Ratchanee (both forecasters in the regional office). Our results were “I am every women” highlighting that Oriflame has skincare products for all skin types, “Turn back time” focusing on the time reversing skincare range featuring a discount equal to your age and “Hollywood glamour” which is a classic. In total twelve themes were presented and hopefully this could give the catalogue development and design team some inspiration.
