Watch this Verizon TV ad pitching Fios that includes a well-known character in the hit Netflix show: Stranger Things, who is a bit out of character but still very much himself.

Background

Read Chapter 3 in The New Marketing and watch the two short videos based on Chapter 3: Architecting Data-Driven Buyer Personas.

As background for this discussion, review the sample persona template in Chapter 3 for Ellen Entrepreneur, then based on watching the Fios video, answer the questions below in your response:

Analyze the ad by addressing these questions:

What is the Verizon brand value proposition that is communicated in this particular ad?

Aviation and climate change

October 9, 2020 Leave a comment APA (edition "APA 7"), Engineering

Write an essay that presents an evidence-based opinion on both the impacts of aviation on climate change as well as the impacts of climate change on aviation.  Your goal should be to convince the reader of the validity of your position, not to get them to agree with you. Be sure to include the claim, the reasons, the evidence in your argument, the claim usually comes last. Don’t forget to acknowledge opposing views and alternative perspectives.

Digital marketing assignment

October 9, 2020 Leave a comment APA (edition "APA 6"), Marketing

assignment, watch this short HBR video on new product idea prototyping and then address the pros and cons of doing what the presenter, Tom Hulme from IDEO, suggests in a segment he calls:

Launch your next idea before its ready

https://hbr.org/video/2226821024001/launch-your-next-idea-before-its-ready (Links to an external site.)

IDEO is one of the premier design new product design shops in the world.

Skip the focus group place your product or service in a real-world environment.
Test its appeal online to reach a larger market.
Launch a mock version to confirm if fills a need.

Again, this sounds like a somewhat radical idea for the time this video was released.  Think about this approach in a digital world —  discuss the pros and cons of doing as Tom suggests.  And, if you were an entrepreneur, is this an approach you would personally try?

The American Astronaut

The American Astronaut

The Short Essay is a 1-2 page paper that builds on a proper thesis statement, supporting details, and puts it all in a concise little package. The Short Essay should be a well-written expression of your argument. They are graded on a modified form of the class rubric, which is attached below. The same three-degrees of having done it well, having done it at all, and having done it poorly are applied to the major categories of Observation, Reasoning, etc

The story can be part of that evaluation, but this is not a story structure (no need to summarize the plot), nor does it have anything to do with film reviews. Also, No need to quote any other reviewer. No need for fancy complex words. say it simple and to the point. if that’s a possibility. The film is called the American astronaut… I have a link just in case.

I also attached two documents… One being and outline i did for a different movie… and how the reviewer criticizes my work…. his word is final on how to make the thesis essay look.. and flow,

Please choose one of the following topics and write a coherent, concise, clear essay that follows MLA conventions (12 point Times New Roman font, double-spacing, with 1 margins). The essay will need to be 5-7 pages in length. Also, you will need to have quotes from primary and secondary sources (5-7) that will support your thesis. Finally, you will want a conclusion that sums up your main ideas.
Below are a few selected topics that you may want to consider exploring; please choose one topic. 

1.)Explore the philosophy of the Absurd in The Stranger. For this topic, you can choose to focus on either Absurd Reasoning or Absurd Man from The Myth of Sisyphus. Be sure that you clarify which section of The Myth of Sisyphus you are going to look at for the essay.

Develop, in detail, a situation in which a health care worker might be confronted with ethical problems related to patients and prescription drug use OR patients in a state of poverty.
Each scenario must be original to you and this assignment. It cannot be from the discussion boards in this class or any other previous forum.
Articulate (and then assess) the ethical solutions that can found using “care” (care-based ethics) and “rights” ethics to those problems.
Assessment must ask if the solutions are flawed, practicable, persuasive, etc.
What health care technology is involved in the situation?What moral guidelines for using that kind of healthcare technology should be used there? Explore such guidelines also using utilitarianism, Kantian deontology, ethical egoism, or social contract ethics.
Say how social technologies such as blogs, crowdfunding, online encyclopedias can be used in either case. What moral guidelines for using that kind of healthcare technology should be used there? Develop such guidelines also using utilitarianism, Kantian deontology, ethical egoism, or social contract ethics.
You should not be using any text you used in a discussion board or assignment for this class or any previous class.
Cite the textbook and incorporate outside sources, including citations.

The topic of “Content Marketing” is becoming very important to marketers.  The focus is very different than traditional marketing where marketers are trying to pitch us to buy a product.  This is the conversation that started a revolution in content marketing, so it is a good place to begin. 

First, as background, watch this short video by Marketing 360 on Content Marketing Strategy 14 tips to success.

https://youtu.be/InG3YTE5DSQ

For the discussion, watch and discuss: 

Some say Gary Vaynerchuk invented content marketing.  Watch this video and discuss the implications to digital marketers.  What does Gary mean when he says that “content is a commodity?”  What does he mean that marketers must provide value?  Why is this new way to market called “content marketing” becoming so popular?
