ESSAY FORMAT:
1. Define Event Marketing and include factual concepts to support your answer. (e.g., books if you have, authors,
websites, etc.) Then, relate its importance as a BSHM student. (10 points)
- Event marketing is a strategy marketers use to promote their brand, product, or service with an in-
person or real-time engagement. These events can be online or offline, and companies can participate
as hosts, participants or sponsors. Marketers use both inbound and outbound event marketing
strategies for promotional purposes.
The importance of Event Marketing to our course is development produce an incredible impact on the
industry as a whole and influence a broad range of human activities: politics, environment, socio-
cultural, and other aspects. That’s why, when organizing such events, you should consider the possible
aftermath for each sphere of human activity as well as the potential positive impacts.
2. How do you create a mutually-beneficial relationship between Public Relations and Marketing? (10 points)
- Mutually- Beneficial Relationships between Public relations and Marketing together form the avenues
for Communication within organizations. The two form not a competitive disequilibrium but a corporate
and marketing equilibrium. The placing of PR or Marketing in separate or discrete boxes or
compartments adds little or nothing to understanding the complex organizational interactions involved.
Public relations is of significant value in the marketing domain. But its role extends beyond marketing.
Likewise however Marketing extends beyond creating quid pro quo exchanges and is of value and
relevance to corporate communications activities. There does appear to be some evidence of a moving
together of techniques, tools, and organizational coupling - i.e. the movement toward integration. It is
too soon in this research process to tell whether marketing PR is the 'new discipline' as proclaimed by
its adherents. On the other hand the emergence of integrated marketing communications seems to
herald the juxtaposition of marketing and PR skills.
