BUSA 6200 Strategic Marketing

The marketing mix involves price, product, promotion and place. By adopting a strategic view of marketing we ensure that the marketing plan clearly articulates the business level strategy in the marketplace. A necessary attribute of “clear articulation” is internal consistency with the mix. This strategic view then insures that marketing decision-making focuses on the linkages between strategic management and marketing management. Specific topics covered include opportunity analysis, the formulation of marketing strategies, and the implementation and control of these strategies.
