  • In what ways can we communicate about the product/service?
  • What are the ethical implications of marketing this product/service in this country?
  • Develop a strategy to initiate and maintain an online community and social network.
  • Choose one specific online network site (Facebook, Flickr, Instagram, YouTube, etc.), and discuss how you will interact with consumers with this network site.
  • List the different methods that will be a part of your online marketing strategy to drive your information to consumers, as well as drive consumers to your information. Why did you choose these methods?
  • Discuss how mobile search will be a part of your overall marketing strategy. Based on a recent study of mobile phone users by Experian (p. 532 in textbook), five segments of mobile phone users exist: (1) Mobirati, (2) Mobile Professionals, (3) Social Connectors, (4) Pragmatic Adopters, and (5) Basic Planners. How will you use these segments and their characteristics in information search and purchase?
