This 10-step marketing plan summarizes the strategy for promoting the psychiatry department at TMC Hospital. The primary target market is patients with psychiatric disorders and their families who can pay for treatment. Competitors offer similar services but TMC will expand its beds and services, advertise on its website and brochures, and focus on its reputation for top psychiatrists in metro Manila. The plan aims to address the gap in services due to high demand and lack of space by growing the department's offerings and promoting its niche as a premier health provider.
