MKT 335 Milestone One


Overview: For this milestone, you will develop an overview of your proposed digital campaign strategy for the fictional client described in the Client Packet. The strategy should support the client’s campaign goals while also taking into consideration the results of the previous campaign. The overview should also reflect your knowledge of digital channels and platforms.

Prompt: You will assume the role of an account executive with a small marketing firm that specializes in digital advertising campaigns. You have been asked to develop a digital strategy for an existing (fictional) client who wants to develop a forward-thinking digital campaign that leverages key learnings from past campaigns.
