What you will learn

Product

Where do you start with marketing a project or product? Why, with an effective brainstorming session, of course! This week you’ll learn the roles we play in groups, how to give opinions or disagree respectfully, and brainstorm phrases and techniques to make your product roll out a success. You’ll see examples of prepping before a brainstorming session as Jake approaches Bridget and even some what-not-to-do’s in this episode of The Challenge.

Product Perception

Have you ever been part of a survey? You’ll see an example as the BioDent marketing team asks people from the streets opinions about their product.

We’ll learn the importance of interpreting these charts and graphs accurately before presenting them with confidence.
