DESCRIPTION
This project was created for my Promotional Strategy class where our assignment was to take a product that had little to no known advertising and create a marketing plan for the product. We choose the Tailgater from Dish where we explain how Dish could re-market their product and become more profitable with the right promotional strategies.
