Applied Marketing

Applied Marketing, 2e combines solid academic theory and practitioner experience to help students master the core concepts, gain experience applying marketing principles, and understand how top marketers operate in today's business world. By bridging the gap between marketing principles taught in the classroom and those applied by business professionals, Dan Padgett and Andrew Loos, an academic and an agency owner, offer students an insider's perspective on marketing principles.

In addition, this course promotes student-centered learning with an entire chapter dedicated to marketing metrics (Chapter 13) and integrates a continuing case study on a socially conscious company, This Saves Lives, to help students apply their knowledge and develop their critical thinking skills.
