This document provides instructions for a final project assignment on marketing plans for a BP marketing class. The final project requires students to research and write a 4+ page paper in APA format on the components of a marketing plan, how marketing plans are helpful to organizations, and an example marketing plan outline. Students must use concepts from the course and include at least 4 outside sources to support their work. The assignment is due on December 26th and must be submitted through the online assignment folder.

1. Final Project for BP
MKTG201 I003 Fall 16: Assignments
Due on Monday 12/26/16
In the future you may be asked to write a marketing plan. For
the final project you are to provide what the marketing plan is
and research the different components of the marketing plan.
You will also provide how the marketing plan is helpful to the
organization. The final project in qualitative and you are not
required to provide any quantitative data.
Specific information on the marketing plan is in chapter 16 of
our e-book.
Figure 16.2 gives us an example of the Marketing Plan Outline.
Please use any of the concepts we have covered within this
course.
The Final Project needs to be in a word document and in APA
format. Page requirement is at least 4 pages in length. This does
not include the cover and reference pages. Make sure to provide
at least four outside sources to support your work
Submit your work to turnitin and then to this assignment folder
A marketing plan should do the following:
a. Identify customers’ needs.

2. b. Evaluate whether the organization can meet those needs in
some way that allows for profitable
exchanges with customers to occur.
c. Develop a mission statement, strategy, and organization
centered on those needs.
1. Create offerings that are the result of meticulous market
research.
2. Form operations and supply chains that advance the
successful delivery of those
offerings.
d. Pursue advertising, promotional, and public relations
campaigns that lead to continued
successful exchanges between the company and its customers.
e. Engage in meaningful communications with customers on a
regular basis.
The Executive Summary
A marketing plan starts with an executive summary. An
executive summary should provide all the information your
company’s executives need to make a decision without reading
the rest of the plan. The summary should include a brief
description of the market, the product to be offered, the strategy
behind the plan, and the budget. Any other important
information, such as how your competitors and channel partners
will respond to the actions your firm takes, should also be
summarized. Because most executives will be reading the plan
to make budgeting decisions, the budgeting information you
include in the summary is very important. If the executives want
more detail, they can refer to the “budget” section, which
appears later in the plan. The executive summary should be less
than one page long; ideally, it should be about a half page long.
Most marketing plan writers find it easier to write a plan’s
summary last, even though it appears first in the plan. A
summary is hard to write when you don’t know the whole plan,
so waiting until the plan is complete makes writing the
executive summary easier.

Overview:
This annotated webography is designed to guide internet-based
research for World War
II. This webography concentrates on specific topics that
involve significant United
States Military contributions to World War II. The following
nine websites contain
detailed timelines, general accounts, analytical papers, and
official World War II
documentation. Maps, charts, and pictures displaying
amplifying data supplement most
of the websites. Each section of this webography gives a broad
description of the
website and concentrates on in-depth analysis of the website’s
usefulness to specific
topics that involve significant United States Military
contributions to World War II.
Example illustrations of each site’s homepage are included at
the end of each analytical
paragraph to provide visual aid. Utilizing this annotated
webography, researchers can
navigate through the Internet around websites that are not
historically sound for
information concerning significant United States Military
contributions to World War II.

This is a “timeline-style” website of the
2,192 days of World War II. It offers a
comprehensive day-by-day account of the
war from September 1, 1939 to
September 30, 1945. The website
emphasizes on battles and campaigns but
also includes significant social and
political events. There is, also, supporting
sections for maps and tanks of World War
II. The maps section proves to be

7. adequate in providing visual aid, but the
tanks section’s technical data did not
contain useful information for this specific
topic. Yet, the main portion of the website, the timeline, is
useful in displaying a
complete picture of the war. It is easy to navigate through by
categorizing a search by
year then by month then by day. The website’s format is a
bulletined timeline that only
contains subject lines but lacks explanatory, descriptive, or
definitive information. For
example, on Friday, February 27, 1942, the website declares
“The Battle of the Java
Sea. Allied Admiral Doorman commanding a four-nation task
force of five cruisers and
eleven destroyers attempts to engage a Japanese invasion force
commanded by
Admiral Takagi on its way to Java. In a series of running
engagements (February 27-
28th), the Allied force is almost totally destroyed.” In this
example, the website states
that the Battle of the Java Sea occurred, and it gives a general
account of the events of
the battle. The insert fails to give details of why the battle
occurred, the significance of
the battle, the effects of the battle, or how the outcome arose.
Although it lacks enough
information to conduct complete research, this website is
marginally adequate for this
specific subject, because it provides the
complete picture of the World War II
story.

This is a “timeline-style” website that
covers significant events during World
War II. A prewar section, a section for
films concerning World War II, and a
section for resource links for categories
such as famous quotes and casualties
supplement the body of the timeline. This
website is much like the Chronology of
World War II. They both present the
entire picture of the “war years” through a
timeline-style website that limits the
information presented to subject lines.
Like the Chronology of World War II website, this website is a
marginally adequate
source, because it fails to give a complete account. It tells the
entire story of World War
II, but it lacks detailed information. There is one major
difference between World War 2
Timeline 1939-1945 and Chronology of World War II
websites…the format of the
timelines. This website provides a different perspective that
allows the researcher to
look into topic specific timelines such as the war in Europe, the
events in the Americas,
and the Holocaust. In some instances, this website gives a
varying account that the

9. Chronology of World War II website. For example, in relation
to the example presented
in the section of this webography for the Chronology of World
War II, this website does
not have an entry for the Battle of Java Sea. Instead it states in
its Asia and the Pacific
section, “Japanese land on Java” on Saturday, February 28,
1942. Yet, together with
the Chronology of World War II website, this website provides
multiple means of
searching through time for significant events as well as the
events that led up to those
significant events and at the same time providing a multi-source
timeline for
researchers.

WWoorrlldd WWaarr IIII CCoommmmeemmoorraattiioonn
This website is a World War II dedicated
website divided into six sections of
general categories. Each section is
further separated into subsections of
specific topics. The first section concerns
the story of World War II, and it contains

10. subsections concerning specific topics
such as campaigns, diplomatic history,
and the prewar and post war eras. The
second section concerns biographies on
significant individuals as well as articles
concerning specific topics. The third
section is a collection of actual air combat
films. The fourth section is a collection of photographs. The
fifth section is a World War
II history test. The final section is a list of related links. The
website builds a
progressive account of the World War II story. The first section
gives a general account
of events before, during, and immediately after the war while
providing reasoning for
significant events. It starts with a broad story of the war, and
then breaks down the
story into fourteen more specific chronological sections from
the prewar era to the post
war era. The section ends with amplifying information
including cost, casualties, and a
chronological timeline. The second section supplements the
first by giving more
detailed information of significant events such as D-Day and the
Atomic Bomb while
also providing biographies on important people such as Omar
Bradley and Benito
Mussolini. As articles within the first section focus on a
descriptive style, the style of the
second section changes slightly more definitive in order to
adequately supplement the
first section. The third and fourth sections further provide
amplifying data thorough
visual aid. This website proves to be an adequate resource for
this specific topic by

11. providing general and detailed descriptive and definitive
information.

This website is a division of
Scholastic.com tailored to assist those
starting a research paper. Sections of this
website include recommended research
topics, a list of articles, and a list of other
online World War II resources. The only
section that provides useful resource
information is the section concerning a list
of articles. The list of articles includes
general accounts of the war separated
into three parts supplemented with
separate articles on significant events,
aspects, equipment, and people. For other topics such as
intelligence operations,
blitzkrieg, the Normandy invasion, Luftwaffe, and high profile
generals such as George
Patton and Erwin Rommel the website proves to be an excellent
resource, because it
provides specific articles for these subjects. For this specific
topic, the website provides
limited contribution. Its contributions include a different
approach through third party

12. accounts of top U.S. Generals including George Patton, Dwight
Eisenhower, and Omar
Bradley. It, also, provides information concerning strategies
and tactics. The articles
focus on principles of each topic. By doing so, the website
supplements other
resources by providing amplifying information. Yet, the
website is not an adequate
World War II website due to its focus on being a “research
starter” instead of being a
source of the subject. Because of this approach, the website
lacks enough subject
matter to be an adequate World War II source. Although this
website cannot be used
as a stand-alone source, it proves to be useful in supplementing
research for this
specific topic by providing a different approach as well as
information on strategies and
tactics.

This web site is a collection of material related to
World War II. The contents are official government
histories, source documents, primary references,
and order of battle information. It is a public domain
categorized into general accounts, official
documents, and by each theater of operations. The
General Accounts section is complied from
American Military History of 1973 (Maurice Matlof,

13. General Editor). This section is separated into four
sub-sections that cover the accounts of the Allied
Powers including their defensive plan, grand strategy, war
against Germany and Italy,
and war against Japan. Each sub-section covers strategy and
significant events of
each topic chronologically and supplements the information
with maps and pictures.
The General Accounts section proves very useful for this
specific topic, because it not
only describes how the U.S. Military participated in the war but
also describes the
causes and effects of U.S. participation. For example, the
website describes U.S.
fortified positions after the attack on Pearl Harbor, then
describes how the strategy was
used later to penetrate Japanese defenses by attacking from
multiple directions in the
War Against Japan sub-section. The official documents section
is a compilation of
diplomatic and political documents including those from
conferences, relevant US
legislation, international pacts, and treaties. This section
proves to be vaguely useful for
this specific topic. It displays the formal commitments of the
U.S., but it does not fully
explain the purpose or extent of the commitments. The Theater
of Operations section is
separated into four sub-sections. Each sub-section gives a more
detailed account of
significant events in specific theaters including the Pacific,
European, China-Burma-
India, and American Theaters. This section provides much
useful information in the
same manner that the General Accounts section does, but the

14. Theater of Operations
section provides a more specific and detailed account of
campaigns and battles. Yet,
the Theater of Operations section falls short of explaining the
effects or future
contributions of each section. This website proves very useful
for this specific topic by
giving general and specific accounts of the participation of the
U.S. Military as well as a
broad account of the causes and effects of specific U.S. Military
contributions.

This World War II website is part of a
military section of the Global Security
website separated into six sections. The
First section is an article concerning the
events of World War II. It chronologically
accounts for the significant events of all
theaters of the war that shaped the
immediate events causing the war to the
defeat of Japan and Germany. The
second section is a list of analytical
papers. The list includes topics such as
the meaning of World War II, testimony of

15. ex-German leaders, and explaining Hitler.
The third section is a list of related
websites for further research in World War
II. The fourth section is a list of links to U.S. Army documents
that cover a variety of
specific topics such as the Women’s Army Corps, training for
mountain and winter
warfare, and the Battle of the Bulge. The fifth is a list of links
to U.S. Naval documents
that cover a variety of specific topics such as casualties,
Operation Tiger, and patrol
torpedo boats. The final section is a list of links to U.S. Air
Force documents, but it only
includes one link concerning the U.S. Strategic Bombing
Strategy. Lacking specific
details and facts to support this specific topic, most of this
website was not adequate for
research. The first section gave a good overview of the war,
which could be used to
build a general understanding. Yet, the article was too broad to
be used sufficiently. All
of the analytical papers of the second section were irrelevant for
this topic. Many of the
articles under the last three sections proved useful, thou.
Useful articles provided
amplifying data in subject areas such as American campaigns,
U.S. Army Special
Forces, and Navajo code talkers. The only portion of this
website that was useful for
research of this specific topic was a majority of the Army,
Naval, and Air Force
documents.

WWoorrlldd WWaarr IIII TTiimmeelliinnee
This website is a database of articles related
to World War II. The articles include
descriptive papers, detailed outlines, maps,
documents, analytical accounts, and
reference listings. Specific topics of these
articles include those directly concerning the
war such as battles, equipment, places, and
people as well as those indirectly concerning
the war such as movies, the influence of
postwar events, effects of the war, policies,
and related websites. This website proved
very useful in any level of research for any
specific topic related to World War II. Its
format allows the researcher to explore the
website by date, topic, links on the internet,
pictures, maps, documents, or bibliographies.
It covered almost every aspect of World War
II from its effects like the reason for the boom
of San Diego, California to policies causing
the war including U.S. isolationism to descriptive accounts of
World War II events such
as Operation Torch. The range of the articles from broad topics
such as the aftermath
era and the air war to specific topics such as U.S. “fast
carriers,” code breaking, and

17. films about Pearl Harbor allow the reader to choose the focus of
research. The website,
also, covers a vast range in time from 1917 to 1949 and expands
with a brief account of
the Cold War period up to 1991. The many pictures allow the
researcher to easily
understand the text. For this specific topic, there were many
articles within this website
that proved very useful. The vast amount of subjects allows the
researcher to view
many aspects of the topic. Yet, most of the articles only give a
general account of the
given subject by briefly describing significant events or factors.
Most articles lack a
detailed account of the causes and effects of each subject. Only
lacking detailed
accounts of specific subjects, the vast range of subjects,
timeline, and focus as well as
the easily navigational format and amplifying information
provided by the pictures make
this website a useful resource for this specific topic.

This website is a division of the British
Broadcasting Channel website. It is a
collection of articles separated

18. chronologically into eight sections. The first
section covers the era between World War I
and World War II. The next six sections
divide the World War II years into sections
titled Blitzkrieg, Britain Alone, Allies in
Retreat, The Tide Turns, Axis in Retreat,
and End Game. The last section covers the
reconstruction and retribution period. At the
end of each section, a dropdown menu is
provided containing a list of articles giving a
general account of specific periods of that section. Each section
contains articles
written by various authors. Each article gives a detailed,
historical, and comprehensive
account of the significant events of the war with a focus on the
battles of the war. Each
article provides a table of contents that allows easier
navigation. Yet, the vast amount
of information within this website hinders the researcher’s
ability to locate pertinent
information in a timely manner. Thus, overall navigation of
this site is poor. This
material contained in this website is an adequate source for
research in any topic
concerning World War II. For this specific topic, it gives
specific accounts of U.S.
Military contributions, but it falls short of explaining the
purpose or effect of U.S. Armed
Forces. It supplements other websites in this webography by
providing a British
account of the war. This website is better suited for U.S.
Military contributions in the
Western Front, because that is where the emphasis of the
compilation of articles within
this website resides. This website proves to be an adequate

19. source of information
concerning this specific topic by contributing specific
information form a British
perspective.

This website is a detailed outline of the
events of World War II. Events covered
not only include those that occurred
during or directly before or after the war
but also those events related to the war
as early as Adolph Hitler’s birth in 1889.
Sections that cover secret
communications, World War II museums,
and related World War II websites
supplement the outline. Each section of
the outline, separated by year in
chronological order, covers significant
events including campaigns and battles,
significant diplomacy including treaties and pacts, and military
equipment including
tanks and ships. Charts of military strength supplement the
outline at certain times or
for certain campaigns as well as with pictures and maps.

20. Throughout the outline, links
are provided to other websites or articles amplifying significant
events. The amplifying
links include biographies, significant aspects of the war such as
World War II aviation,
significant equipment such as the Battleship Bismarck, and
significant events such as
the Bataan Death March. The secret communications section
proved to be of
marginally useful for this specific topic, because it provides
limited information
concerning U.S. Military contributions to developing secret
operating procedures for
communications and the level of success for the procedures.
The World War II
museums and related World War II websites sections did not
provide useful information
for this specific topic, because they did not provide relevant
information. This website
proves to be useful, because it gives information in areas that
other websites in this
webography do not cover. For this specific topic, the articles,
maps, and pictures
supplement other websites of this webography by providing
additional information.

Summary:

21. Contributions of the U.S. Military to World War II can be found
within each source of this
annotated webography to varying degrees. The timelines of the
Chronology of World
War II and the World War 2 Timeline, 1939-1945 websites can
be used to guide
research. Information concerning strategy and tactics of the
U.S. Military in World War
II can be discovered in the World War II Remembered website.
U.S. Military
contributions to the overall strategy and outcome through its
participation in campaigns
and battles can be found within the Hyper War: A Hypertext
History of the Second
World War website. Specific contributions of each branch of
service can be found
within the Military Operations: World War II website. Specific
details of contributions of
the U.S. Military can be discovered within the World War II
Timeline website. Causes
and effects of U.S. Military participation can be found in the
Hyper War: A Hypertext
History of the Second World War. Different perspectives to the
topic can be researched
using the World War II Remembered website’s third party
bibliographies of top U.S.
Generals and the British account of the World War Two
website. Finally, The World at
War, History of WW, 1939-1945 website can be used to
supplement the other sources
through its account of information not contained in the other
websites such as significant
aspects of the war like the Aviation War and significant military
equipment. Complete
research of U.S. Military contributions to World War II can be
obtained by using the

22. Chronology of World War II and the World War 2 Timeline,
1939-1945 websites as a
guided outline, then beginning research by using the descriptive
and definitive
information of the World War II Commemoration website as a
base of research, and
finishing research using the other websites for amplifying
information.

Nuclear Threat Initiative

25. The Nuclear Threat Initiative is a
nonprofit organization that has a mission
to strengthen global security by building
trust and transparency that are outlined in
the Non-Proliferation Treaty. At first
glance, I noticed the layout of the website
is clean and inviting with various colors of
white and light blue. The website is built
around a blog style that allows real time
information to be easily located and
displayed. I like this because it doesn’t
make the website stagnant and allows the
reader to find updated information
extremely easy. What caught my eye
initially is the very top navigation bar
under “Glossary.” This is a glossary that
is independent of NTI and provides the reader with various

26. terms and definitions that directly
relate to the websites content including WMD. Some of the
terms come from the various
treaties, weapons that cause mass destruction, and other
miscellaneous terms. As do other
websites, the NTI website provides an “About Page” that
describes the company and its mission
statement. Not only does the website provide up to date
information, but also provides links to
the two major social websites such as Twitter and Facebook. I
like that this website likes to
interact and engage its followers as social networking provides
the vehicle for communicating
between the company and its readers. NTI also provides video
content as the world is shifting to
this type of medium for information such as YouTube videos.
The profiles of different counties
are very informative. If you are interested in a country, such as
Iran and its history as far as
WMD is concerned, you just click on the country’s flag and the
information for that state are
displayed. A quick overview of that country is explained to
include information related to
Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical warfare. Some of the

27. information is about the state’s position
on WMD and where they stand on the NPT. The NTI website is
a very informative site that
covers a wide range of information pertaining to countries and
their involvement in WMD. It
covers all NBC threats and provides in depth analysis on a wide
range of topics in the form of
articles, reports, testimonies, speeches and opinions.
Comment [HS1]: Here is one example of what
one would look like…..put each website on a
separate page….keep your review to one page for
each website
Comment [HS2]: Use pictures that catch the

29. What is a Webography?
A webography (aka webliography) offers students like you a
new perspective on an old
assignment classic: the annotated bibliography. Even if you
have never heard the
phrase “annotated bibliography,” most (if not all) of you have
certainly compiled a
bibliography (or a reference list) for a research project or paper.
But you may not yet
have been asked to compile and create an annotated
bibliography. So, let’s begin by
reviewing terms with which you probably are familiar:
websites,
periodicals, etc.) one has used for researching a topic. A
bibliography/reference
usually just includes the bibliographic information (i.e., the
author, title, publisher,
etc.).
When we put these two terms together, then, we arrive at the
following definition of
“annotated bibliography:”
An annotated bibliography is a list of citations to books,
articles, and documents. Each
citation is followed by a brief descriptive and evaluative
paragraph, the annotation. The
purpose of the annotation is to inform the reader of the

30. relevance, accuracy, and quality
of the sources cited.
Like the classic annotated bibliography, the
webography/webliography offers readers a
list of citations and accompanying annotations to source
materials related to a given
topic. However, unlike the classic annotated bibliography
(which can include both
library and non-library resources), the
webography/webliography only includes online
resources (i.e., webpages).

Additional Guidance/Tips:
· Create your work as a Word document and to submit as an
attachment (remember to compress photos -- see below for
instructions)
· 12pt Times New Roman
· The websites may be federal, state, local, commercial, or

· Don't forget that you are reviewing website – do not pick
documents on website, that will not meet the intent of the
assignment
· Catch the reader's attention with dynamic photos (don't forget
to cite under them to give credit if they are not from the
specific website you are reviewing. For example, on the cover
page, you might use a picture you randomly found on the
internet -- make sure you cite to give credit where you got the
picture)
· When you use pictures in your document, don't forget to
compress them (this is an option under "Picture Tools" and
select "Compress Pictures" and uncheck "Apply only to this
picture" in order to compress all the pictures in your document.
Also select "E-mail (96ppi)" for best way to upload your work
(note the steps may be different depending on what version of
Word you are using)
· Don't just tell what the selected website is about -- explain
what the strengths and weaknesses are that you identified
· Don't forget the Table of Contents

32. · Don't forget the Introduction -- tell the reader what you are
going to cover
· Don't forget the Conclusion -- tell the reader the key points of
what you told them
· Finding the unique websites can make the assignment more
interesting – this takes some effort. Don’t be afraid to think
outside the box
· Don't cut and paste from the website -- put things in your own
words. If you summarize the website material, then I would not
expect to see a citation as I will equate that you are relating the
material to the website you are reviewing
· If you use a direct material then it is expected that you cite
correctly and use quotation marks and the appropriate citation
(look in the Lesson area of the course if you need help with
APA citing style). If you use a direct quote, then you need to
have an extra page at the end of your Assignment that is a
Reference List (and needs to be in APA style)
In the past, I have lots of students say it was hard to get started,
but enjoyed it once they dove and that it was nice to do
something other than the same old research paper. I hope you
find it that way as well.
