DHL in India
The project must be presented in a professional manner. Use the American Psychological Association
(APA) guidelines for writing style, citations and format. Bell Library has a short handout on APA
guidelines. All sources from which data have been collected must be properly cited in the paper as
references. Use the following format to report your findings. Follow the page limitations for each section
of the report. Again, The Country Notebook-A Guide for Developing a Marketing Plan can be a very
useful in completing the project.
