WARM-UP•ACCORDING TO THE THEORY OF MERCANTILISM

MAINTAINED BY BRITISH COLONIALISTS BEFORE

THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION, COLONIES EXISTED

SOLELY FOR THE ECONOMIC BENEFIT OF THE

MOTHER COUNTRY. WHY WOULD IT BE

BENEFICIAL FOR BRITAIN TO PERMIT THE SELLING

OF COLONIAL GOODS AND CROPS IN BRITAIN ONLY

AND NOT IN ANY OTHER COUNTRIES?

GOALS FOR COLONIAL MARKETING CAMPAIGN TODAY• 1. THIS IS THE LAST DAY THAT WE WILL BE WORKING ON THIS PROJECT! SO MAKE SURE THAT

EVERYTHING IS HITTING THE TOP HALF OF THE RUBRIC!

• IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION OR NEED CLARITY ON SOMETHING THEN PLEASE ASK ME!

• REMEMBER THAT THE PUBLIC PRODUCT AND THE MARKETING RESEARCH ARE TWO SEPARATE THINGS.

• YOUR MARKETING RESEARCH SHOULD BE COMPILED INTO A GOOGLE DOC OR A PRINTED OUT DOCUMENT.

• YOUR PUBLIC PRODUCT SHOULD BE SOMETHING THAT IS PHYSICALLY OR DIGITALLY TURNED INTO ME AS

WELL. THIS MIGHT BE YOUR RADIO SHOW, COMMERCIAL, PITCH, ADVERTISEMENT ECT.

REMINDERS

• WHATEVER YOUR PUBLIC PRODUCT IS YOU WILL PRESENT IT TO THE CLASS AS A PART OF SELLING YOUR

COLONY!
