(Hint: Allow the concept of value to direct your thinking. Marketers should not recommend strategies without first understanding the problem and the value the target market seeks.) **** VERY IMPORTANT: This assignment requires extensive research. Completing this assignment involves more than summarizing the case or video presentation. Remember, effective marketing strategies must be designed to add value to the target market. When completing this assignment, students should demonstrate the needs of the target market and craft strategies that will satisfy the target market’s needs. Major marketing decisions should not be based on assumptions, instincts, or guesswork.

Major marketing decisions should be rooted in evidence and facts. Therefore, it is critically important that students include a wealth of evidence to support how the target market derives value and how student-generated recommendations will provide the benefits sought by the target market. Remember to cite your sources in the body of your paper and include a reference page. Please identify and focus on one specific regional mall instead of regional malls in general. DO NOT simply repeat the information presented in the accompanying video. Conduct your own research to determine the problems your selected regional mall are experiencing, and your solutions should be based on satisfying consumers’ needs.
