Many of our students are successfully placed in jobs in companies such as Amazon, Apple, American Express, Bayer, Colgate, Citibank, General Mills, Google, Microsoft, S C Johnson, Unilever, Verizon, or early-stage startups. Students interested in general management and those who plan to start their own businesses might also find this course useful. This course introduces students to the frameworks that address how to identify target customers, launch new products, run A/B tests to prove out growth strategies, write positioning statements, build brands, manage product portfolios, and optimize both digital and non-digital marketing activities.
