3 Review of Unit 6 In Unit 6, we looked at the way producers of goods get their products into the hands of consumers through distribution channels and by developing a sound supply chain management system. We also looked at the different types of intermediaries in the distribution process, particularly with regard to wholesalers and retailers

4 Reading Assignment Chapter 12 “Communicating Customer Value: Advertising and Public Relations,” examines the first two components of the promotional mix in more detail. Just as we have the marketing mix, there is also a promotional mix, comprised of advertising, public relations, personal selling, sales promotion and direct marketing. Chapter 13 “Communicating Customer Value: Personal Selling and Sales Promotion,” continues our consideration of the promotional mix, which will conclude in next week’s reading. Personal selling is one of the most effective ways of promoting a firm’s products, but it is also the most expensive way to promote a product.
