i dont have the answers, but i do wish you all the best of luck! have a good summer everyone ^^

To answer the first question, the first step that Jacob needs to do in the strategic planning process is to define a mission statement.

If you're not familiar with what a mission statement is, it's a concise statement that clearly outlines the purpose and goals of an organization.

To get to the answer, you would need to understand the basic steps involved in strategic planning. Typically, the first step is to define the mission statement. This step is crucial as it sets the direction and provides a clear focus for the organization.

Now, moving on to the second question, the e-mail that Sam received is an example of Guerilla Marketing.

Guerilla marketing refers to unconventional and innovative marketing strategies that aim to grab attention and create a buzz. In this case, the well-known candy company encouraged Sam to dress up like their candy and then encouraged him to share his photo with colleagues. By creating a fun and engaging campaign, the company is hoping to generate interest and word-of-mouth promotion.

To identify the answer, you would need to understand the different types of marketing techniques. Viral marketing aims to spread information rapidly through online channels, direct marketing involves one-on-one communication with the target audience, and sales marketing focuses on selling products or services. In this scenario, the unique and unconventional approach of encouraging people to dress up and share photos aligns with the concept of guerilla marketing.
