Week 1 Collaboration 

Collaboration: Service-dominant logic (one-week activity) 
The dominant paradigm in marketing for the past decade has been service-dominant logic (SDL), the idea that organisations and consumers co-create value in an ongoing process with various points of interaction.
In this week’s collaboration, you will reflect on and evaluate your own experiences with the co-creation of value, for example, personalised interactions where both you and the organisation benefitted from the exchange. 
To prepare for this Collaboration:
Review service-dominant logic (SDL) in your notes and readings and think about situations in which you engaged in the co-creation of value.
To complete this Collaboration:
By Saturday (Day 3)
For your Initial Response, in 300–500 words, address the following:
Use service-dominant logic (SDL) to describe a situation in which you engaged in co-creation of value. What strategies could the marketer have used to enhance this experience for you? How would these strategies have improved your experience?
Submit your Initial Response to Turnitin and to the Collaboration forum. 
By Wednesday (Day 7)
 
Participate in the Collaboration Forum by posting 3 to 5 responses to your colleagues in which you:
Constructively critique their description of a situation in which they engaged in co-creation of value. Remember to provide a rationale for each of your comments.
Identify additional strategies the marketer could have used to enhance your colleagues’ experiences. How would these strategies have improved their experiences?
You should aim to participate with follow-on postings to your colleagues’ responses, making 3–5 significant follow-up postings. Aim to spread your total collaboration discussions across 3 separate days of each week.

Market segmentation, part 1 (two-week activity)
Last week, you used service-dominant logic (SDL) to explain your experiences with the co-creation of value. This week, you begin a two-week collaboration analysing and evaluating the market segmentation practices of two very different organisations. You will begin with the Coca-Cola Company’s failed launch of its Dasani brand of bottled water in the UK. For Part 1, watch ‘Coke’s Water Bomb’ in the Learning Resources section of Week 2, paying close attention to the company’s marketing strategy.
To complete this Collaboration:
By Saturday (Day 3), submit a response of approximately 300-500 words answering the discussion questions below:
What are the important segmentation variables for the water market in the UK? Make sure to justify your selections.
What segment(s) did Coca-Cola target and why?
What mistake(s) did Coca-Cola make in the UK? Based on your understanding of the water market in the UK, why were these mistakes?
Submit your initial response to the Turnitin link provided and post to the Collaboration forum.
By Wednesday (Day 7), post 3-5 responses to your colleagues in which you:
Constructively critique their description of segmentation variables for UK bottled water and those targeted by
Coca-Cola. Remember to justify your responses.
Constructively critique their description of the mistakes made by Coca-Cola in the UK. Remember to justify your responses.
Ensure that you spread your collaboration posts across at least three separate days of each week. This will help maximise the value of your collaboration with colleagues and serve to meet the learning objectives for each activity.
Next week, you will continue this Collaboration by analysing and evaluating the marketing strategy for the University of Liverpool’s MBA programme and considering how well it has been designed to serve your own needs.

Week 3 Collaboration: Market segmentation, part 2
This week, you will continue your collaboration discussion from Week 2 by considering external environmental factors.
Last week, you explored the role played by marketing research, segmentation and targeting in developing marketing strategies that effectively serve the wants and needs of the consumer. 
This week, you will expand your focus to consider the adaptation of marketing strategies to external environmental factors in the markets served. 
In Part 2 of the market segmentation collaboration, you will address a more personal example of how well the University of Liverpool’s marketing strategies have been designed to serve your own wants and needs.
To complete this Collaboration:
Until Monday (Day 5)
Continue to participate by engaging in a discussion with your colleagues, replying to each other’s posts. 
In your discussion:
·         Consider the segmentation and targeting strategies the University of Liverpool has chosen for marketing its MBA programme.
·         To what extent has it needed to adapt these strategies and its offerings to the environmental factors in the markets in which it operates?
·         Reflect on your own reasons for choosing to undertake your MBA at the University of Liverpool. How have the strategies and marketing practices aligned with your reasons and contributed to or detracted from value co-creation and establishing a strong ongoing relationship?
Post an additional 3-5 responses to your colleagues in which you:
Compare their analysis with yours of the effect of external environmental factors on ‘Coke’s water bomb’.
Compare their analysis with yours of the effect of external environmental factors on UoL’s MBA programme.

Week 4: Collaboration: Customer insight, part 1 (two-week activity)
This week, you begin your second two-week collaboration in which you consider our own purchasing behaviour as consumers and compare it with the purchasing behaviour of an organisation.
What factors influence your purchasing decisions, and how would those decisions change if you were buying not just for yourselves, but for an entire organisation? By examining the purchase of a computer or mobile device, you and your colleagues will gain a better understanding of these processes and the importance of customer insight in a successful marketing strategy.
To prepare for this Collaboration:

To complete this Collaboration:
By Saturday (Day 3)

Now consider how you would approach this decision if you were responsible for buying this type of equipment for an organisation for which you worked to be used by all of its employees. How would the buying process and the factors that would influence your decision be different from your own personal purchase?
Submit your Initial Response to Turnitin and to the Collaboration forum.
Until Wednesday (Day 7)
Participate by engaging in a discussion with your colleagues, replying to each other’s posts:

Week 6 Collaboration
Collaboration: Marketing strategies, part 1 (two-week activity)
More than a decade ago O’Malley and Patterson (1998) boldly proclaimed ‘The marketing mix is a myth. Theoretically, it has no foundations. Pedagogically it no longer serves a useful purpose and practically it has been surpassed in many instances by more dynamic approaches to marketing. We propose that the mix has now reached its vanishing point.’
Yet the ‘myth’ lives on in marketing textbooks and among marketing practitioners who find it necessary to make product, pricing, promotion and distribution channel strategy decisions. In this week’s collaboration, you will debate the merits of the marketing mix as a framework for understanding the discipline.
To prepare for this Collaboration:
Review your notes and readings on the marketing mix.
To complete this Collaboration:
By Saturday (Day 3)
For your Initial Response, in 300 to 500 words, address the following:
Do you feel the 4Ps should be retired, or can they be reconciled with the newer paradigms such as relationship marketing, SDL and co-creation of value?
Provide a detailed rationale for your position along with support from external reference sources.
Submit your Initial Response to Turnitin and to the Collaboration forum.
Until Wednesday (Day 7)
Participate by engaging in a discussion with your colleagues, replying to each other’s posts:

Week 7 Collaboration
Marketing Strategies, part 2 (two-week activity)
This week, you continue to explore marketing strategies, moving from micro to macro strategies
For this week’s collaboration, you will continue to explore marketing strategies, moving from micro strategies such as relationship marketing to macro strategies such as corporate social responsibility (CSR). You will consider why organisations choose to pursue ethical business practices and the potential impact of marketing on individual and societal well-being. Finally, you will submit a summary of the entire two-week collaboration.
To prepare for this Collaboration:
Review your notes and readings on social marketing and corporate social responsibility (CSR).
Review your responses from Part 1 of the collaboration.
To complete this Collaboration:
Until Monday (Day 5)
Continue to participate by engaging in a discussion with your colleagues, replying to each other’s posts.
In your discussion:
Consider the ethical challenges that are faced by marketers in making decisions about their product/pricing offerings, their channel strategies and their integrated marketing communication programmes. How does unethical behaviour impact consumer and partnership relationships, as well as the co-creation of value?
Reflect on factors that should cause an organisation to follow ethical and socially responsible business practices in this highly interconnected world of 24/7 news and social media. Explain how each factor might influence an organisation to act responsibly.
Do you feel that there is a bottom-line case to be built for organisations embracing corporate social responsibility (CSR) or that their primary concern should be for achieving objectives for profit, growth etc without regard to the social consequences? Justify your position with evidence from the readings and/or independent research.
Post an additional 3-5 responses to your colleagues in which you:
Constructively criticise your colleagues’ assessment of the case for CSR. Remember to justify your responses.
Expand upon the topic with your own insights and findings from the independent research you have done.
