Introduction
The RPZ Marketing Problem Statement
Lack of sufficient social media consultants who have undergone proper training is among
the significant challenges that the RPZ marketing faces. After the implementation of the RPZ
and Genaflek merger, RPZ went ahead with its operations without foreseeing the need for
professional social media marketing to serve both the existing and new clients. On the other hand,
Genaflek did move into the merger with their consultants. These consultants, however, had
minimal knowledge necessary in the operations of social media marketing. This inadequacy has
brought about several disadvantages in RPZ. For instance, the consultants from Genaflek cannot
handle the new problems that arise in the process of social media marketing for new clients
(Diamantidis & Chatzoglou, 2019). The existing customers also fail to acquire satisfactory
services as the consultants have inadequate training on the subject matter. Therefore, RPZ
Marketing needs to find solutions for the problem urgently.
The Problem's Significance to RPZ Marketing
The need for having a team of well-trained social media marketing consultants is one that
cannot be ignored by RPZ Marketing. This need is because the company risks a significant loss
of revenue as well as a damaged brand or reputation if the problem does not get prompt attention

consultants in social media marketing while the existing clients may opt to terminate their
contracts to seek better services from other competing companies. Another issue is that there
could be a reduction in employee morale or some of the employees may quit their jobs in the
company. This demotivation may be as a result of the resentment that may occur between the
social media marketing staff from Genaflek and those from RPZ. The few trained RPZ social
