Long Term Objective
The main objective would be to match the Lamoiyan Corporation products with its competitors through penetrating different retailers and use of distribution wise enough. Strategies
Obviously, Lamoiyan Corporation competes with the companies whose main product is also toothpaste. To uphold the consumption of the products and contest with the big ones, the following are proposed: * Since Lamoiyan has started to produce packed toothpaste, they may invest in continuing the production of such product to clash with the big companies.

* Another weak side of Lamoiyan Corporation is its distribution. Its products are not widely distributed into retailers nationwide and do not reach people over provinces especially in Visayas and Mindanao. Through its massive packed toothpaste and with other products, again, investment in distribution might be at risk but would help the company reach the peak.

* Another is below the line advertisement. Where it practices the use of sign board on public school premise and sponsoring events. Unlike its competitors who use advertisements heavily on television commercial, radio commercials, magazines and billboard. The strategy is not mistaken but if your objective is to leverage the company and its brands, above the line promotion may assist in accomplishing it. Thus, it has been the practice of current competitors which supported them to elevate the business operations.
