Topic Proposal
You will select a topic for the Week 1 assignment, and thereafter, all related assignments (the draft in Week 4 and the final marketing plan in Week 7) MUST be on the same topic. You may not change your marketing plan topic without approval from your instructor. Your topic should be for a business, product, or service that you would like to start (no multilevel marketing structures or non-profit organizations, please).
Because this is an applied project and not a research paper, please do not select a corporation such as Starbucks or Coca-Cola as your topic. You are to apply the course concepts to this project. If you are interested in coffee restaurants, for example, you may wish to select your own cappuccino bar as your topic and then use information from companies like Starbucks or Seattle's Best Coffee for ideas and competitive research as you work on your project. If you have questions about your topic, don't hesitate to post them in the Q & A Forum this week.
For Week 1, please write a two-page description of your company, product, or service. It should be a new business, product, or service.
Discuss:
Ownership and company structure.
Describe the business, product, or service.
Write your mission statement.
Provide your marketing goals.
The marketing goals must be specific, measurable, actionable, realistic, and time bound.
