My Brand Is: Kate Spade New York

Instructions for the course project are found in the course text listed in the syllabus on page 527.( I already uploaded it to the files)

Although the Brand Report Card assignment described in the text requires the evaluation of two brands, students will ONLY evaluate one brand for the course project. (My Brand Is: Kate Spade New York )

To complete the project students will assume the role of a consultant tasked with evaluating the selected brand. In the process of researching the selected brand, if students are unable to find data for a specific component of the brand report card, students are to recommend what the brand should do.

The project must be completed in MS PPT format.

The project must not exceed 10 slides, additional commentary to support the content of each slide must be added in the “notes” section of each respective slide.
Each slide must include a rating between 1-10 and rating must support the rationale provided on each slide.( please must Answer all questions and all point on the page 527 the Brand Report Card, I already uploaded it to the files)

All sections (1-10) of the Brand Report Card are to be submitted in the final week of the course on the date indicated on the syllabus. PLEASE NOTE: PROJECTS SUBMITTED AFTER DUE DATE WILL RECEIVE A 50% POINT REDUCTION.
