Instructions
The Dropbox assignments in this course build upon each other to create an overall Integrated Marketing Communications Plan. Each week will build on the previous week’s assignments. This week you need to select a small to medium size company with which you can become familiar. It can be either online or a brick and mortar company. As examples, a local group of coffee shops or pizza restaurants or local clothing stores, all will work well.
Address the memo to your instructor. In the memo, identify your company. In our class context, they will be your pretend client for all the Dropbox assignments.
Answer the following questions in the memo:
Who is the target market? Go back to chapter two and identify the market.
What is the product or service they offer?
What is the Price compared to the competition?
Where are they located? Does this location(s) provide any specific advantage? For example, are they located just off the main interstate?
Identify their current promotional strategies. Do they use radio? TV? Transit media? Direct mail?
What type of social media do they utilize, if any?
The memo may be longer than one page to cover all the information.

Assignment Overview
Although this assignment is not due until the end of week 5, you will need time to research and complete. 
Please answer the prompts in the template using your previous external and internal analysis of Draft Kings and any additional research conducted on your own. The answers you provide in this submission regarding the internal and external environment do not have to match what you put in team project 1.
You may use other internet or library sources, but they should be reputable and objective business news or industry-specific outlets – NOT PODCASTS or POLITICAL OPINION SITES.
Instructions:
You must use this template: This template document Team Project 2 – Strategy & Forecasting Template (1).docx Download Team Project 2 – Strategy & Forecasting Template (1).docxis broken out in sections and below the section items is a place for you to enter your answer. Very similar to the Project 1 document.
You should submit your assignment via CANVAS on or before the due date/time. You MUST cite sources of information in APA format (include a reference page at the end of your submission). You should number your citations in the text of the paragraphs as described throughout the semester. The references at the end of the document should be listed numerically, not alphabetically. If the information is not your own assumption or insight it will need a citation. Be sure to put information in your own words to avoid plagiarism. In other words, information taken from sources should never be verbatim unless it is in quotes and effective business writing keeps quotes to a minimum. “Turnitin” will help you avoid plagiarism issues. Give yourself enough time to submit and make changes prior to the deadline.
This is a team assignment. Feel free to divide the work between team members as you see fit, but a designated person or a small group should be responsible for a final read through that checks for consistency and grammar. We will also be grading your writing skills including spelling, grammar, syntax, and flow. Feel free to use Grammarly or some other software tool to assist you with your writing if you wish.
The SWOT analysis that you just finished in your earlier team project is the highest-level summary of the most important and impactful internal and external factors (good and bad) affecting the company. Once you know what the major issues are that you need to address, you then need to develop (formulate) your specific recommended actions and sequence of actions to maximize the competitive positioning of the company over the next 5 years. You then need to build a five-year financial forecast based on your previous research and on the recommended actions in your strategic plan. You will need to first provide short-term strategy suggestions (what should the company do right now), and then longer-term strategies for what the company should do thereafter through year 5. Yes, some of the strategies may, and probably should, overlap because they take longer than the first year to execute.
If you have any questions regarding the assignment, please contact me.

New (and improved!) products are fun to create, and they are cr

Managerial Recap
New (and improved!) products are fun to create, and they are crucial to a company’s growth. To develop new products, marketers go through a process:
From idea generation to testing the market potential, to concept testing, design and development, then beta testing, and ultimately the launch (review Figure 8-1).
Reinvigoration along product lines is important because products evolve through a life cycle:
From introduction, to growth, maturity, and decline;
Each stage is recognizable by its sales and profitability;
And each stage carries standard recommendations for the 4Ps.
Models can be used to forecast sales. Most include factors that reflect word-of-mouth or buzz marketing. Information technology is facilitating viral marketing.
A manager who wants to be seen as innovative and foresightful would do well to study trends.
Chapter Discussion Questions
Consider the trends described in the chapter (e.g., aging, heightening environmental concern, or China). How will each affect the business you are in (or were in before coming to b-school)?
Make a list of three of your favorite brands. What would be a great brand or line extension that you would like to see developed as a new product?

When traveling in Israel, I came across a McDonalds with a giant poster advertis

When traveling in Israel, I came across a McDonalds with a giant poster advertising a “Big America,” which is a Big Mac with a fancy name. Many restaurants in other countries will market food as American or American-like to draw more customers. (See this hilarious article about the many fried chicken restaurants in the U.K. including Tennessee Fried Chicken, Ohio Fried Chicken, and even Alaskan Fried Chicken.) Sometimes Americans companies will try to adapt to the culture of the country, or they will market themselves as American to gain more customers. 
For this week, I would like you to select a product, company, or even an industry and then select a country and research how its cultural diversity, location, and social norms may impact the four P’s (discussed week 1). Some questions to keep in mind for your response: What social customs may impact the way a product is marketed? Are their barriers to the distribution system? Is the product use in the country consistent with the home country or do they differ and why? Will language barriers present a problem? How could this product/company be best marketed?
For example, in Israel, McDonalds has had to adapt its menu to make it Kosher for many of its locations. Barriers for this include the purchasing of Kosher meat instead of using its typical distributors. Hamburgers are not everyday food in the country, so it requires some marketing. Or, because it is one of the few chains selling hamburgers in Israel, it may give it more business because the lack of supply compared to a potential demand. Feel free to speak from personal experiences for your own posts as well.
*** You must respond to three of your peers. You must make the word limit listed on your syllabus. Your responses should reflect on what your peer posted, or compare their posts to what you found for your own.***
The deadline for every discussion assignment every week is Wednesday at 11:59 PM.
*I give bonus points for thoughtful responses at the end of the semester.
