Action-Based Learning Projects:
MAP & Consulting Studio
The challenge Clinique presented to its MAP team was how to communicate the value and benefits of its products to the millennial generation in an increasingly fragmented and competitive landscape. The original research conducted by the MAP team led to a robust sampling strategy using digital engagement and non-traditional distribution channels. The team’s final report to the company included detailed communication and distribution plans along with estimated financial impacts.
PepsiCo commissioned its MAP team to take the Pepsi brand "beyond the bottle." Students developed a strategic business plan detailing how to best unlock the power of the brand to generate new, alternative revenue streams that drive brand equity and relevant connections with consumers.
