Learning Goal: I’m working on a marketing discussion question and need support to help me learn.Please select only one of the two discussion questions below and provide a thoughtful 250+ word response to all of the questions (250 words total, not for each section).

That means you can see responses by your classmates ONLY after you post your response. Your first post counts, so if it’s blank – that’s what you will be graded on. You cannot go back and edit your posts after you submit it. The reason this for this is that I want each of you to thoughtfully develop your own response. But then, I want you to be able to see what other students think about the same topics as you. It’s helpful to learn from our peers.

For example: John Smith would be a cash cow because he… Again, you will need to develop your explanation for each of the 4 celebrities.Next, you are being given a hypothetical $10 million to publicize your talent roster. You need to divvy up that cash and determine how much you will put behind your 4 choices in part b. You will have to explain your reasoning as well. (These are the questions facing marketing managers, so it’s nice to have a little practice here!).
