Promotional Strategy

This series of six core module texts and five new optional unit texts provides comprehensive coverage of Vocational AS and A Level Business Studies. Each book focuses on vocational aspects of business, rather than theoretical models, allowing the reader to understand how businesses operate.

Gerard Tellis clearly communicates all aspects of promotion using the most recent social sciences research findings, to enable prospective managers to design their own successful strategies.

The proposed book is follows in the same steps as the first book in the series, The Handbook of Market Research for Life Sciences. While the first book focused on the techniques and methodologies to collect the market data you need to evaluate your market as well as presentation models for your data, the second volume will focus more on the commercialization elements of marketing. As such, this book will be covering a wide range of topics directly tied to marketing management such as marketing and commercialization strategies, consumers’ behaviors, marketing metrics, pricing techniques and strategies as well as marketing communications (public relations, advertising, and more). The objective of this book is to focus exclusively on the marketing aspects for life sciences, providing entrepreneurs with a toolkit of tools they can use throughout the marketing process, from market planning to commercialization. The overall objective is for them to gain an understanding on the marketing function, ask the right question, and be able to tackle simple to complex topics.

The fifth edition of Marketing Strategy and Management builds upon Michael Baker's reputation for academic rigor. It retains the traditional, functional (4Ps) approach to marketing but incorporates current research, topical examples and case studies, encouraging students to apply theoretical principles and frameworks to real-world situations.
