Assignment
Read the attached case study and critically examine the key issues and recommend a course of action. Do not summarize information from the case study. Rather, purely analyze the issues. View this as a marketing consulting engagement. The paper should be a written recommendation to Chantal Lenard, taking into consideration the situation, campaign, campaign performance, goals, etc. Consider recommendations that are cost-effective and appropriate to the marketing challenge and time (short-term or long-term) of the problem at hand.
Review the below questions as they are the basis for the case write-up. However, do not simply answer the questions. Questions are just to get you to think about the major issues. Rather, in analyzing the case, adopt the perspective of a consultant who has been hired by the company to advise it on the problem at hand. Stitch together arguments in a smooth way in your write-up. Be sure to use data from the case to support your arguments.
Paper should be 5 pages in 11.5 point font. Suggested format for the paper is to begin with a short one paragraph executive summary that highlights the major issues in the case and clearly states recommendations. The remainder of the write-up should present in greater detail the analyses which supports your conclusions. Please attach exhibits to support the write-up where possible. Exhibits do not count toward the 5 page paper.
