Situational Analysis
To identify what makes your health care product or service unique, a situational analysis has been conducted. The situational analysis portion of this project will focus on the internal and external environment in which the marketing plan is to be implemented.
​​
The situational analysis will include three specific areas:​
- SWOT, a four-cell chart containing internal and external factors of the chosen healthcare organization
- Environmental forces, research into university health centers as well as health services or programming for university students.
- Competitive analysis, an analysis of weaknesses and strengths of the competitors to the selected organization

Students in this course use real university health organizations to create an informed marketing plan over the duration of a semester

SWOT

CAPS has a long-standing presence on campus, providing trusted mental health services to students.
Students may feel more comfortable discussing mental health with peers, creating demand for peer-led support groups like Peer Support Circles.
Current marketing efforts may not be sufficiently targeting all student demographics, especially those who may benefit most from Peer Support Circles.
External organizations or online mental health apps and platforms may offer similar services, making it difficult for CAPS to stand out.

CAPS (Counseling and Psychological Services) at IU Indianapolis provide mental health support for students online and in-person.
Current marketing efforts may not be sufficiently targeting all student demographics, especially those who may benefit most from Peer Support Circles.
Students may feel more comfortable discussing mental health with peers, creating demand for peer-led support groups like Peer Support Circles.
