Pick a product for one of the three distribution strategies


1. Marketing channels

The Coca-Cola Company has a very large and complex channel distribution system. Take a look at how the company describes its distribution system by clicking on this link:

https://www.coca-colacompany.com/our-company/the-coca-cola-system
Can you outline the indirect channel system based on the information on the website? You might want to refer to Figure 6.2 or Figure 6.3 in the main text to organize your thoughts. What value does each of the channel members provide to the end customer? What might you suggest they do differently

Many of you will be tempted to use promotional pricing since it is the easiest to demonstrate. So promotional pricing is not "for sale" (pun intended). Pick one of the other approaches for this topic.

2. Marketing channel strategy

Pick a product for one of the three distribution strategies (intensive, selective, or exclusive). Note your product and the distribution strategy, and then discuss why you feel the distribution strategy is most appropriate for that product based on the factors listed above in the week's readings

3. Warehousing and transportation

Can you think of an example of a product for which the warehouse or the method of transportation is the channel leader? You might need to do a little web searching to find examples. Think creatively for both online delivery and physical delivery.

4. Price strategy

There is no shortage of pricing approaches, and as customers, we are exposed to all of them at some time or another in our purchasing processes. Choose one of the pricing approaches discussed in the readings and discuss a product, the pricing approach, and why you think it is the most appropriate approach for that particular product given your consumer characteristics. Be sure you understand the definition of your approach before tackling this topic.

It is a discussion board questions and I want 1 and half page for the all four questions please, put the reference page under each questions.
