Assignment 7: Goods and Services Marketing
The success of a product or a company in the marketplace is highly dependent on the target
markets ability to distinguish a given product from another. One way this is accomplished is
through branding. When it comes to branding, companies must make complex decisions that
will have a prolonged effect on the perception of the product and company in the marketplace.
In this discussion, you will discuss product placements based on brand name marketing in the
film industry.
Scenario:
Product placement deals have been a common practice in the film industry for quite some time,
but the focus on placing popular brands in movies and television shows was never as important
as it is today. To execute this Discussion, watch one of your favorite television shows or a
recent popular movie and discover a brand of a product that is featured in the plot of the story.
Pay close attention, sometimes it can be tricky to identify a popular brand being featured if your
mind is not consciously looking for it.
