Buyer Role MAR 4400 Practice Role Play 1
Planet Mundo Fit
Background
You are Ellie Cabrera, Co-Owner of Planet Mundo Fit
The business started after you spent years working at several of the larger fitness gyms in the area. Although appreciative of the opportunity and the experience gained, you felt those gyms lacked something that
connected them to the community. They felt cold, impersonal and run of the mill—not at all what you wanted
for your workout experience.
You recruited a college friend, Nicky Perez, to help bring your vision to life. Nicky’s extensive career in hospitality coupled with a recent yoga instructor certification, is what you have been looking for in a partner
to open Planet Mundo Fit, the complete solution focusing on strength and flexibility.
Planet Mundo Fit has been in business for close to a year now, steadily attracting a loyal customer base. It’s now time to grow your business!
The Current Situation
Planet Mundo Fit attracts a varied client base. The business has been the fortunate recipient of publicity on local newscasts who were attracted to your wall-to-wall HD TV displays that took spin class participants to
different locations across the world, a truly unique concept. The buzz generated from your Grand Opening
press has subsided and you are open to doing something different to increase the client base. Lots of people
came in at the beginning but did not stay!
You’ve been presented with several advertising options from the local TV stations that covered your Grand Opening but all are well outside your anticipated marketing budget. As a result, you’ve employed more modest advertising methods including community newspapers and direct mail to the zip codes in your
surrounding area, but with limited success. You feel that taking a targeted approach would be the best option
as most customers are from the surrounding geographic area.
One change that you want to see implemented is to attract a more affluent customer made up of adults from 25-54 years of age. The ‘unlimited visits’ monthly plan option you offer is $99.99 yet most clients opt for the weekly plan of $19.99, for two visits a week. The monthly plan is auto-renewed and provides residual
income; the weekly plan is paid week by week.
The Sales Call
You agreed to meet with the Comcast Spotlight Account Executive for 10 minutes who connected with you via a telephone call at the studio. You sensed the enthusiasm through the phone and were impressed when the
sales rep cited some industry facts that affect your business.
The rep also mentioned being able to target a collection of zip codes closest to your location, which you are open to discuss. You know you need some help to grow the business but are not sure that TV advertising is
the way to go with all the digital options available today and with the increase usage of mobile apps to track
fitness.
How could a cable company help you? Will this meeting be a waste of time? Either way, it’s only 15 minutes, so not much to lose! Hope it’s worth it.

STEPS FOR BUYER ROLE
STEP 1 – Please read the Seller Role and then this Buyer Role profile carefully. Become familiar with this profile.
Get into the role!
STEP 2 – Review these general guidelines below for your role as a Buyer:
Don’t offer information freely – wait for the Seller to ask. The Seller is to showcase questioning skills and probe until the needs are clear.
Raise the objections throughout, not just at the very end of the sales call – not too early but not too late.
Make the sales call challenging but not unrealistic. Your job is to create “hurdles”, not “impossible” situations.
Have fun with this role. If you forget something, make it up, but be realistic.
Students cannot offer discounts. They must make an effort to demonstrate value & quantify benefits.
STEP 3 – Incorporate the following assumptions into your sales call, IF ASKED:
Your sales have dropped by 5% this past year, totaling $50,000.
Competition in your industry is getting fierce. Some of your loyal customers have switched to other centers.
You don’t have ways of tracking the performance results of your current marketing & promotion strategies.
STEP 4 – Select at least two (2) objections from those below:
Your solutions sound very expensive and complicated. I don’t have a budget right now.
I like traditional advertising and marketing strategies. I’m just not into the new online methods. We’re just not knowledgeable enough to use these. We aren’t technology savvy.
My friend works at Telemundo and he can get me a great deal.
I once met with a Comcast Spotlight representative and I did not have a very good experience.
OUTCOME – Agree to a follow-up meeting, as long as the Seller has made an attempt to overcome objections effectively and asks for the commitment.
PREPARE to play the part.
ENJOY!
