This chapter stressed integration of advertising with other components of the marketing mix. A classmate argues that advertising is a small part of the marketing process and relatively unimportant; another says advertising is the most important communication activity and needs to get the bulk of the budget. If you were in marketing management for Kellogg cereals, how would you see advertising supporting the marketing mix? Does advertising add value to each of these functions for Kellogg? Do you think it is a major responsibility for the marketing manager? What would you say either in support of or in opposition to your classmates’ views? Working with a small team of your classmates, present your point of view to your class.
