PROGRAM PLAN
I. Situational Analysis
New competitor City of Dreams Manila’s (CODM) grand opening will be on
November 2015 in Entertainment City, Manila. CODM is the third integrated resort in
the Philippines after Solaire Resort & Casino. CODM is a casino, hotel, retail and
entertainment integrated resort with six hotel towers, including an approximately 260-
room Crown Towers Hotel and the first Nobu Hospitality Hotel in Asia. Located at the
gateway of Entertainment City within the Manila Bay area, CODM will also have
specialty restaurants and shops, as well as bars, gaming facilities and three distinctive
entertainment venues including Manila’s first branded Family Entertainment Center, a
live performance central lounge inside the casino, and a night club. CODM offers
everything from the best hotels to the most exciting shows and is expected to become
an iconic landmark in the Manila Bay area.
The opening of another huge resort and casino could pose possible threats to
RWM even if the two establishments are distant from each other. With the celebration
of RWM’s 5th anniversary all-year, a good public relations plan can help in maintaining
and securing RWM’s place in the minds of its potential and existing publics.

B. Measurement of Production
Through measurement of production, we will count the total number of
tactics made to inform our target publics of our messages.
• Radio: We will count the number of times the ration stations aired our
PSA’s.
• Flyers: We will count the total number of flyers produced.

advertisement.

YouTube (hits).

determine the number of newspapers with our ad that were
sold. These numbers will allow us to calculate the total number
of people exposed to the message.
- Cost per person: We will calculate the total cost of the
production tactics such as flyers, brochures and divide it by the
total number of people that received these tactics to determine
the cost per person. This will provide us with the cost of our
