Welcome to Week 4. And I hope you're enjoying the course so far. We're going to cover in this kickoff PowerPoint, the reading that you're going to complete this week. We're going to talk about the discussion board on promotion that the one on the poor piece you're covering. And of course, this is an opportunity since it's a lighter week in the sense that you don't have a paper do as well, is that you should be working on your Week 7 and disruptive marketing plan that you've been thinking about since prior, probably at least Week 2, that hopefully are making some progress in pulling together some ideas. So take this week core as an opportunity. It's a little bit of a lighter week that you can get some work down in your Week 7 paper as well. Okay, As we continue, I'm talking about week 4. We're going to discuss that 3D. You're going to be reading three articles from your Harvard Business report course pack that you have review, I should say Harvard Business Review. The what? The first one is disruptive marketing, communication per customer engagement, the new frontiers of mobile instant messaging. I even give you some ideas to spark for your Week 7 paper. So read that. And then the next one is a brand report card that's by Kevin Keller. He actually we use him in the master's level marketing course. So that will be a good article for you just to better understand marketing and brands and then branding in the digital age, you're spending your money in all the wrong places. That one is by Edelman.
