Marketing Strategy during COVID 19

For this take home Final Exam, create a Word document and answer each of the questions listed below and upload it in the Assignment tab for Final Exam. Please limit your responses to each question to approximately 150-250 words. This exam is designed to have you demonstrate that you understand the concepts discussed in the Chapters 11, 12, 13, 14, and 16 and Modules 5, 6, and 7. I don't want you to list the definitions in the text but rather use your own words and examples whenever appropriate to show me that you understand the learning objective for that concept.

In your word document, you do not need to retype the question, only begin it with the question number (i.e. 1., 2., etc.). Don't use any references in your response because I want this to be your interpretation and application of the concepts. Please work independently on this exam.
