Marketing, more than any other business activity, links companies to their customers. Even if you don’t pursue a career in marketing, it is useful for you to understand how marketing works. Upon successfully completing this course, you should be able to: 1) Speak the language – In your daily life, you have probably encountered many of the phenomena we will discuss in class. However, if you want to pursue a career in business, you need to be fluent in the terminology, frameworks, and models related to marketing and corporate social responsibility (see service learning project). 2) Apply the concepts learned in class – Knowing the terminology, framework, and models is important. It is more important, however, that you are able to combine and apply them across different contexts in order to make justifiable recommendations. 3) Critique current practice – You will develop the ability to evaluate current marketing practice, not only in terms of its effectiveness, but also in terms of ethical implications. 4) Conduct marketing research – Millions...
