Marketing Intro
My favorite place to eat is probably jack-n-box. I like them because their target marketing is always perfect for me. Everytime I eat there my food is hot, well prepared, and brought out fast. They also stepped up their marketing mix by adding the extra $1 foods to their menu. My favorite place to shop is footlocker. Their target marketing is excellent because they have a wide variety selection of shoes and clothes. Also their marketing mix is nice because, you can buy some shoes then get like 30 or 40% off some shoe cleaning and some socks.
