embedded in the design of the SmartFit Watch will enable this product to surpass the

performance of rivals and recapture the market's understanding of smart wearables.

Executive Summary

The intended market group of the SmartFit Watch is the smart appliance consumer and the

health-conscious market, with new trendy gadgets as their preference. This marketing plan
