Final (Critical) Project

The final project includes many of the areas that was read, discussed and learned from the textbook and is an application of the all course learning. The content should be based on the latest marketing methods and tools available.

There are two components to the Final (Critical) Project. First the actual research paper is to be completed and submitted to Canvas.

The second component is an accompanying oral presentation. The oral presentation is a summary or overview of you findings. You may construct the oral presentation multiple ways. Create a Keynote or PowerPoint presentation, add voiceover explaining each slide. Create a Keynote or PowerPoint presentation and use Explain Everything app to place a small video clip into each slide, or simply video the summation using your iPad.

For the Final Project, you are able to choose which scenario and process to research. Review Scenario 1 and Scenario 2.

Scenario 1:

You (an entrepreneur), have come up with an innovative new product you wish to market. The product can be a consumer or organizational good or service (therefore, either a B2C or B2B product).

You will be required to document the development process of your new product, and develop a marketing plan for it to become commercially available.

Scenario 2:

You are a brand/product manager, hired to develop a new product line or brand extension for the company’s top-performing product (Note: student chooses the company and brand/product). Based on the company’s mission and goals, status in the market, current target market, and brand power, develops a marketing plan for the new product/brand extension.

Citing

Your statements and findings must not only be clearly stated and logical but also supported by your research (with cited sources of information). Furthermore, all facts (other than common knowledge) must be cited in the text or body of the report and the informational source listed in the References. A fact is more than just a number (e.g., statistic) but also a definitive/specific point, statement or information unknown to others. Facts and informational sources should include of course the organization, its retailers, and competitors, current and potential customers.
