  • EN 660.350: Marketing Strategy

    3.00 Credits
    Johns Hopkins University

    Prerequisite: 660.250 Principles of Marketing. This writing intensive course helps students develop skills in formulating, implementing, and controlling a strategic marketing program for a given product-market entry. Using a structured approach to case analysis, students will learn how to make the kinds of strategic marketing decisions that will have a long-term impact on the organization and support these decisions with quantitative analyses. Through textbook readings, students will learn how to identify appropriate marketing strategies for new, growth, mature, and declining markets and apply these strategies as they analyze a series of marketing cases. The supplementary readings, from a broad spectrum of periodicals, are more applied and will allow students to see how firms are addressing contemporary marketing challenges. In addition to analyzing cases individually, each student will be part of a team that studies a case during the latter half of the semester, developing marketing strategy recommendations, including financial projections, and presenting them to the class.

  • EN 660.450: Advertising & Promotion

    3.00 Credits
    Johns Hopkins University

    This course builds on the promotional mix concepts covered in Principles of Marketing (660.250)—advertising, public relations, sales promotion and personal selling. Students will learn how marketers are changing the ways they communicate with consumers and the ways in which promotional budgets are allocated—and how this impacts the development of marketing strategies and tactics. Working with a client (provided by EdVenture Partners) that has chosen this JHU class as its “advertising agency” and an actual budget provided by the firm, the class will form small teams to mirror the functional organization of an actual ad agency (market research, media strategy/planning, copywriting/design, public relations, etc.). Student teams will then develop a promotional plan and corresponding budget to reach the desired target market (JHU undergrads who meet the client’s criteria), implement the plan and then evaluate its effectiveness through pre- and post campaign market research conducted on the target consumer. No audits.
