Phase 3 - Outcome - Report: Students will present and submit their marketing communications plan to your organization, which will include the following:

• Situation analysis (research methodologies, data, and findings).
• Problems and opportunities (SWOT).
• Strategy (marketing goal, IMC objectives and strategies).
• IMC tactics section (creative strategy, recommendations, and plan).
• Implementation section (budget, schedule, and HR considerations).
