10- 12 SLIDES POWERPOINT (MKTG320) UNIT4 INDIVIDUAL PROJECT

 
Key Assignment Draft Presentation
Part 1 Tasks (Week 1–4)
It is time to put your marketing plan together based on the research  that you have done through Weeks 1–4 (Part 1 tasks). Review the draft of  your marketing plan from your assignments, and expand on any sections  that need additional detail. This week, you will create a draft  PowerPoint that combines the work that you have done previously with 2  new components. The Week 5 Individual Project will build on that draft  by incorporating any Discussion Board 4 peer review comments, Individual  Project 4 instructor comments, and 2 new sections (Part 2 Tasks).
This draft should include all of the previously introduced sections  plus the additional section that is mentioned below regarding metrics.  This presentation should be done in a professionally yet appealing way.  It should incorporate a theme and the proper supporting graphics(charts,  tables, etc.), and it should focus on achieving the bank’s long-term  goals as well as your specific objectives. This presentation should be  considered as a real-life situation where you are presenting to the bank  president and senior management in an attempt for them to approve your  recommended strategy. In some ways, you are marketing your marketing  plan, so focus on the strong points, especially how your plan will  achieve the bank’s long-term strategic goals and your specific marketing  objectives. The bank president is giving you the opportunity to  practice before you present to the entire board in the final  presentation.
The assignment contains the following 12 sections:

The board needs to know that they are spending money  effectively. For example, if you are doing a direct mailing, how will  you validate if the mailing was successful at achieving its goal? If you  are using banner ads on a partner site, how do you know that your  investment in that channel is worth the money or that it is achieving  your goal for that promotion?
