MINDFUL MARKETING ELECT TO EMPOWER YOUR FUTURE MKTG 476 - Digital Marketing

Digital marketing is the component of marketing that utilizes the internet and online-based digital technologies to promote products and services. It involves various digital channels such as social media, search engines, email, and mobile apps to connect with potential customers and individuals interested in products or services.

Digital marketing allows for personalized communication and the ability to track campaign performance, making it a vital aspect of business and brand awareness in today's digital age.

Brand management is about meaning. A brand is more than just a name and a logo: brands must be carefully created, astutely managed, and judiciously leveraged if they are to thrive. A brand is something that is important to people and provides value to them. Religion is a brand, athletes are a brand, and you are a brand. By taking MKTG 475 - Brand Management, students will practice building a personal brand as well as learn how to establish brand identity and equity to attract and maintain customers, which will increase their customer lifetime value. This course will help individuals connect their brand with their customer base!

Marketing 499, or ‘People and Money’, is a discussion-based class where students learn about Price, one of the four P’s in the marketing mix. Marketing 499 is the only elective that covers the price element and is often thought of the least by students.
