The marketing plan aims to increase revenue and events at Kannah Creek Edgewater Brewery from November to March through various winter-themed events. These include a SnowSlay event with skiing/snowboarding on an artificial slope and rail features during happy hour. A ski and gear swap event would allow buying and selling of winter gear. A "Beer Card" punch card program offers student discounts on pints to encourage repeat visits. The plan will be evaluated through sales analysis, market share analysis, and customer satisfaction metrics to ensure the goals are met in a profitable way.
