I’m working on a communications question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

In this chapter, we learned many tactics of integrated marketing communications, such as cause-related marketing, online/social media marketing, product placement, buzz marketing and so forth. Please find an example of an integrated marketing communications campaign (meaning the campaign synthesizes advertising, marketing and public relations). 1) Provide a link of the campaign, 2) specify what IMC tactics were used (by using the word “integrated,” the campaign has to use more than one tactic listed in the textbook/sides), and 3) comment on the effectiveness of these IMC tactics.

The final project for this course requires that students critically evaluate how Hofstede’s cultural dimensions help explain a context. Choose any context. Examples include, but are not limited to:

• Business practices
• Healthcare
• Academia
• Environmentalism
• Politics

The project should:

1. Define Hofstede’s cultural dimensions based on at least four credible, scholarly sources.
2. Evaluate your scholarly sources, providing a brief comment on the theoretical aspects of each.
3. Discuss the development of the dimensions: how the dimensions originated and came to their current status.
4. Discuss the link(s) between the dimensions and your chosen context.
5. Discuss the implications of your case on individuals, society, and the public. How does an increased intercultural understanding affect these different groups?
