For this Assignment, you will continue to take on the role of a marketing professional to develop a persuasive marketing strategy for good. Your goal is to help society while being cognizant of the organization’s mission and goals. Your task is to continue designing a social media/social marketing campaign for your organization that would promote diversity and inclusion and could help benefit the company. Your decisions must align with the company’s mission and goals. You will continue using the same company you selected in Week 6 for this week’s Assignment.

With those thoughts in mind, continue constructing your marketing campaign design document with the following sections, being sure to incorporate appropriate examples, where applicable, as well as citations for relevant academic sources from the classroom, the Walden Library, and/or other appropriate scholarly sources to support your work.
 

Note: In Weeks 6 and 7, you submitted Parts 1 and 2. This week, you will incorporate any revisions to those two parts and will develop and submit your final document that includes Part 3.

To prepare for this Assignment:

• Return to the Module 3 Assignment Template you utilized in Weeks 6 and 7. With the research and readings from Weeks 6–8 in mind, incorporate any feedback, as needed, into your report as you complete Part 3.

By Day 7

Submit your completed design document, including the addition of Part 3, as follows:

Part 3: Marketing Strategy Execution for Change (approximately 4 pages)

• Based on the identified needs of the target market, sub-groups, and any additional stakeholders, brainstorm a minimum of four ideas for the marketing campaign. Remember that the point of brainstorming is to generate new and creative ideas. Do not spend your time evaluating the ideas or determining their feasibility in terms of costs, resources, time constraints, etc. You will do that next. Simply record the results of your brainstorming session as a section of your design document.
• After generating your list of ideas, identify the one you feel is most appropriate for the organization given its positive social change goal. Then do the following:
  • Briefly summarize the main messaging and steps for execution of your proposed social-change-focused marketing campaign.
  • Summarize what steps the organization can take to increase the chances of smooth execution of the proposed marketing campaign, including strategic considerations related to the following:
    • Resources (time, money, personnel, acquisition of materials, technologies, etc.)
    • Implications for the different stakeholders (i.e., consider multiple perspectives)
    • Possible risks requiring mitigation (i.e., might there be any potentially negative impact of the organization engaging in this marketing strategy for good?)
• Finally, to conclude your campaign design document, synthesize how this marketing campaign will promote diversity and inclusion while influencing positive social change, and provide specific details to support your thoughts.
• As part of your synthesis, provide a compelling and persuasive summary of why this campaign is important for the company’s brand/reputation and how the company will benefit from it.
