Dear student

Welcome to Session 2 of the syllabus on Leveraging promotion tools and tactics. These instructions are for your independent study before the course starts. If you have just joined us, you will find copies of the instructions for the previous sessions on the course site.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THIS SESSION

As the fourth "P", promotion and promotional tools are focused on raising customer / stakeholder awareness of a product or brand's unique value; put in place a 'call to action'; generate sales; create brand loyalty and satisfaction post-purchase. The promotional mix often includes direct (personal) selling; advertising (including the web), sales promotion, direct marketing, and publicity.
