my topic is Responsible Consumption and attached is the slide from the class. The assignment consists of a video presentation and deck. A rubric for assignment will be provided. Students will pick a topic from a provided list and prepare a 4-minute video presentation and deck. The student will submit a recording and the deck for grading. The presentation and deck must include research on the topic, including citations, and be cited in the video and deck. The research can be news articles and/or research journals. Each student will select a topic from their assigned chapter. You will analyze and explain a single concept or theory from the assigned chapter by using an application/example (news article/marketing tactic/personal experience/etc.) in the form of an informative presentation video. The focus should be on how your example applies to the chapter concept of your choice. The Video: You will present your analysis, research, and example to the class, using an informative video recording. You can record your presentation in any platform you like (I highly recommend using Kaltura or Zoom recording), as long as you can upload it or post a link to it in Canvas. You must be visible during the presentation as well as show the slides. Your presentation should always start with your name, your chapter number, and the concept/theory you are presenting about. If you believe that a short video (20 seconds to 1 minute maximum) of an advertisement for example, would be a good illustration of your point, you can make that part of your presentation. Your presentation should be 4 minutes with a buffer of 15 seconds on either side.. Please do not exceed the maximum time limit of 4 minutes 15 seconds, including any media (with embedded videos max time of 1 minute). If you include a video, it DOES NOT count in towards the length of the video (e.g., you have a :30 second video), then your final video length would be 4:15 to 4:45. The expectation is that you present for the required time of four minutes. Please make sure that your presentation is not a reading of your paper. Your example should be creatively presented to illustrate the concept in a way that grabs our attention and allows us to understand it better. Please note that finding a video or article that explains the concept does not count as an application of the concept.

The section 2: Business Challenge. (Rubric attached below) I have created the Company Name and Product and/or Service, and attached it below. Please based on the idea in it to create Section 2. In the “business challenge” section of the plan, the planner describes the offering and provides a brief rationale for why the company should invest in it. In other words, why is the offering needed? In addition, the company’s mission statement should be referenced. How does the offering and marketing plan further the company’s mission? The following subtitles should be included in this chapter: Company Description, Mission Statement, Goals of the Marketing Plan, Owner Qualifications Remember, the focus of your marketing plan should center on a unique company and product or service. Essentially, you are an entrepreneur marketing your startup company’s unique product or service. Keep in mind that some of the marketing plan guidelines in the PDF course book refer to existing businesses and product or services. Your focus should be a startup entrepreneurship; therefore, overlook requirements for an existing business. PDF course book page 470 (Textbook attached below) Please use APA 7th format for resources.
