Describe in detail these target markets, and the specific benefits Cheerios markets to each. In your opinion, is such “generational marketing” a good idea? (You may want to visit the Cheerios website for a good overview of their efforts to reach these markets.)

As you have now seen, marketing consists of many different disciplines and functions. However, as a teacher, I like to break the essentials into what I call the “Marketing Triangle.” The Marketing Triangle consists of advertising (the stuff that you have to pay for– TV commercials, print ads, billboards, etc.); publicity (free media coverage); and P.R. (personal relationships). An easy way to remember it is this is, “With advertising you PAY, with publicity you PRAY (that it will be publicized and accurate), and with P.R. you PLAY.” Think of the business you work for, or a Fortune 500 company you are familiar with. Does it utilize all three sides of the Marketing Triangle? Describe in detail how it does or does not. For this and all other Discussion questions, post your initial response (150 -250 words), and reply to at least TWO classmates’ postings with at least 75 words. Important: In this week’s initial posting, I would like you to use and cite/reference supplemental research.
