Details

This semester students work on a detailed Integrated marketing communications (IMC) plan. They will critically analyze the current environment, the company's strengths and weaknesses and a section on how to improve its promotional stance or solve a current marketing communication challenge. They will try to develop a Marketing promotional Plan to drive online traffic, customer leads and/or online sales. The students will use marketing research (secondary), strategy, digital promotional tools and marketing best practices to create a report and presentation.
