Each member should present their completed worksheet and then through negotiation and discussion the team will decide on one strategy. This will provide the basis for the advertising campaign.

Team should fill out a separate consensus form electronically and email to all members for later reference.

Teams will work to design their advertising campaign for a new line of product or service for their company. Members should draw on information learned during the Task.
