Catalog Course Description: This course introduces students to the design, development, maintenance and management functions that impact on the choice and administration of marketing channels embedded within the firm s strategic and managerial frames of reference. 4. Course Overview: This course will study the elements and management of marketing channels. For our purposes, any marketing channel is viewed as an inter-organizational system involved with the task of making goods, services, and concepts available for consumption by enhancing their time, place, and possession utilities. The focus is on how institutions can effectively and efficiently transmit things of value from points of conception, extraction, and/or production to points of consumption.

We will analyze marketing channels using a framework for analysis that can be used for consumer product sales, business-to-business sales, and sales of services. We will first discuss how to interpret the demands consumers have for the productive outputs of the channel. We will then show how to describe the productive activities of channel members that produce these valued service outputs. We will identify the types of gaps that can exist in channel design and how to close them. We will then discuss how to manage the channel to control channel conflict and enhance channel coordination through the constructive use of channel power. Throughout these sessions, we will use lecture/discussion, case discussion, and a major channel design project to develop and use the course knowledge. The orientation of this course is toward the management of relationships within and among organizations that are linked together in a distribution system. The successful management of these relationships, whether through the creation of consistent incentive systems for all channel members or through the exertion of other types of influence, is crucial for the long-term competitive viability of the firm. 5. Course-Level Learning Goals 1 (A) Invariant Learning Goals (In support of the Major-Specific and BSBA Programmatic Learning Goal(s)) 2 : Upon successful completion of this course, students should be able to: 1. Prepare a professional written and oral report, including an executive summary supporting a recommendation (A1d; A1e; A1f); 1 A note on School of Management Major-Specific Course-Level Learning Goals: Learning goals are partitioned into those that are in support of the Major-Specific Learning Goal (Invariant), specific to the localized region of delivery (Contextualized), and specific to the domain expertise of the instructor (Instructor-Specific). The former two categories are required for all courses. Invariant Assurance of Learning Validations are specifically linked to the associated Course-Level Learning Goals and also support the Major-Specific Learning Goal through the Major-Specific Learning Objectives. Course-level Learning Goals that focus on knowledge acquisition (Bloom s Taxonomy) are not specifically or necessarily included into the Course-Level Learning Goals, although it is assumed that knowledge acquisition of all relevant business core fundamentals is addressed within each course. Examinations in class are used to provide feedback concerning knowledge and comprehension for the purpose of ensuring that students who have not mastered these will not advance through the curriculum. Attainment of knowledge within each core area is assessed by way of standalone testing of each student as a required part of the instructional program prior to graduation (e.g. ETS). 2 The degree of attainment for each course level learning goal is validated through the composite set of scores for the referenced Assurance of Learning Validations for that goal. For example, if a learning goal is followed by (A1), it implies that the average of the set of scores for Assurance of Learning Validation A1 forms the basis of assessment/attainment of the learning goal. Alternatively, if a learning goal is followed by (A3; A4; A6), this indicates that the composite set of scores for Assurance of Learning Validations A3, A4 and A6 are to be used to assess the degree to which this learning goal has been attained with equal weights applied to each set of scores. That is, the average of the scores for A3 is utilized and weighted equally (1/3) with the average for the scores of A4, and also A6. Unless specified otherwise, the weights are equal. In the latter case the weight for each Assurance of Learning Validation would be 1/3.

2. Conduct research on macro business-environmental trends and link these to existing marketing channel practices (A1a); 3. Evaluate and analyze existing marketing channels (A1b); 4. Re-design a marketing distribution system (A1c); and 5. Develop recommendations for a distribution-related problem (A2). Assurance of Learning Validations (Linked to the Major-Specific and BSBA Programmatic Learning Goal(s)) 3 : A1. Project: Distribution Design Report Student teams (four or five students per team) will analyze the distribution system (marketing channels) of two companies; one that has a well-designed and effective distribution system in place one that has not. For each, students will be required to provide a description of the company, its philosophy and product mix, and in particular, the product in question for distribution. The team will also assess the distribution elements and strategy of the company. Students will then be required to identify, in their opinion but based on evidences and rational, the more effective strategy and apply it for the second company in order to ensure greater effectiveness for that company. The project outcome is a written report (approximately 10 pages) that must contain certain elements, in five sections, as detailed below: a. In section one, the team must provide an introduction to the project. More specifically, the team must provide motivation for the reader to engage into reading the paper and indicate the relevance and impact of the anticipated analysis, outcomes, and recommendations in terms of company projected performance and competitive position on the business environment. b. In section two, the team must identify a company that has a well-designed and effective distribution system in place. This section of the report will include three subsections. i. In the first subsection, the team must provide a description of the company history and philosophy, the precedent for the development of the current product mix, its current market competitive position, and the identified distinctive competencies, strengths, challenges that the company faces that impact on sustainability. ii. In the second subsection, the team should focus on a narrow group of products or product line and identify the existing marketing channels that are used to bring the product to the market. Once identified, the team should conduct an exploration of the company s strategy and choices 3 A note on School of Management Assurance of Learning Scoring: Scores form the metric for the degree to which the validation (e.g. learning outcome) satisfies the associated learning goal or objective. Assurance of learning validation descriptions identify the criteria for each score that is to be given. All scores are scaled from 1-5 (1-poor, 2-fair, 3-good, 4-very good, 5-excellent). It must be noted that scores are to be differentiated from grades. Scores form a criterion from which an instructor will ascertain an overall grade for any instrument of assessment, and the overall assessment the student receives for an instrument is a grade. A score is an extraction that specifically measures the degree of attainment of a learning goal and/or objective.

for components of this mix, which include its design, implementation and support, and criteria (KPIs) used to evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of the design system. iii. In the third subsection, the team is to conduct an analysis of the chosen marketing channels. The analysis should incorporate data from technological sources, including inventory levels across the supply chain, and expected time to market. In the analysis, the team will also comment on the competitive advantages provided by the marketing channel decisions in place. c. In section three, the team must identify a company that has a weaker market position based on identified KPIs. The accompanying section should include the same material (see I, ii, and iii, above) as that provided for the company with the stronger market position. d. In section four, the team must provide a comparison of distribution channels and offer recommendations for the design of a new distribution system or modification of the existing distribution system for the disadvantaged company that will enabled them to gain a greater competitive position in the market. The team must also suggest incremental improvements to the implementation, support, and management functions that would advance the company s organizational goals. For this written report, six team scores will be given, based on the team ability to (a) identify and describe the marketing channel design for each company. gather appropriate data and describe the maintenance, and management functions for the distribution channel and link this to macroenvironmental trends that influence marketing channel decisions (MRKT-LO5), (b) and evaluate the efficiency of the design system for each company (M2O1); (c) modify or design the distribution system of the disadvantaged company and provide recommendation for improvement (MRKT-LO2); (d) contribute a compelling executive summary concerning why the recommendation is reasonable (M4O1); and (e) professionalism of the writing and written presentation (G1O1). The sixth score (f) is based on the effectiveness of the oral presentation is presenting facts and recommendations accurately and concisely (G1O2). A2. Case Study: Each student will be required to submit a two (2) page report with recommendations for a specified case 4. For this case study, two scores will be given, based on the student ability to (a) correctly state the assumptions and supporting evidences (M3O1), and (b) the quality of analysis and resulting recommendation, which must follow from the assumptions made (MRKT-LO4). (B) Contextualized (Localized) Learning Goal(s): None Assurance of Learning Validation (In support of the Contextualized/Localized Learning Goal(s)): None 4 Pitt Leyland, Berthon Pierre and Berthon, Jean-Paul (1999) Changing Channels: The Impact of the Internet on Distribution Strategy, Harvard Business Review.

Teaching and Learning Methodology The School of Management s teaching and learning strategy is informed by contemporary indicators/sources that derive from its target market, specifically the millennial generation. In particular, behavioral traits for this generation are identified and form the basis of emphasis for the schools teaching and learning methodologies. These methodologies are reflected in the school s mission statement by way of its TEMPOS campaign 5. In addition, teaching and learning strategies are informed by institutional indirect assessment results, periodically collected and reviewed by the Center for Teaching and Learning and the school s faculty 6. Teaching and learning strategies are also externally referenced systematically (e.g., the Annual Stakeholder s Conference) through continuing consultations with non-board key stakeholder groups, including employers, business and community leaders, accreditation and ministerial agencies, alumni, students, peer institutions, and business and governmental agency representatives. A component of all courses, as a part of the teaching and learning strategies, is to maintain academic rigor and to be intellectually challenging. This is validated in institutional survey results. However, School of Management faculty members utilize an overall collective portfolio of strategies/initiatives that obtain from the aforementioned sources in delineating those that are most appropriate or emphasized in the courses they lead. In this course (MRKT307), four (4) prioritized teaching and learning strategies focus on: 1. case-based learning; 2. timely feedback; 3. course projects; and 4. faculty-student interaction. All faculty members that instruct this course should consider how to execute the course to emphasize these key components of the strategies considered. Following a review of learning outcomes, faculty members consider how re-orientation of teaching and learning strategies might result in strengthening these outcomes, and adjustments are made, accordingly. Faculty members also consider how the School of Management Triple 5 Teaching and Learning Strategies: TEMPOS and the Millennials, revised September 2008. 6 E.g., Student Survey on Teaching Quality Quantitative Data: School of Management.

Platforms of Excellence (Professional Enrichment, Experiential Education, and Student Advancement) might be leveraged as a part of this strategy, and provide recommendations to the Directors of those platforms. The school also reviews the distribution of identified teaching and learning strategies periodically to ensure comprehension and the integration of each (from the designated list of approximately 20-25 strategies) within the curriculum. Finally, results from student teaching evaluations also provide indications of how various teaching and learning strategies are integrated into the course delivery. The following issues (indicator number is provided) are among those in the evaluations that bear on this review and analysis: 7. The amount of work in this course was appropriate. 15. The instructor was available for course related consultation and advice. 17. The instructor assigned challenging course work. 18. The instructor graded and returned student work and exams promptly. 19. The instructor provided helpful, constructive feedback on assignments and course work. 20. The instructor respected cultural differences and diversity among students. 21. The instructor incorporated information technology (e.g. computer or the Internet) in the course. 25. The instructor challenged me to think. Along with teaching and learning strategies, the notion of student effort/time on task is also considered, although it is not necessarily driven by metrics. It is noted that the notion of student effort, specifically metric driven, is not a universally adopted approach 7. However, if an instance occurs where student learning outcomes do not meet targeted academic standards, the School of Management utilizes indirect inputs in this area to explore the interdependencies between factors including the amount of work required in the course, the degree of challenge in the coursework, and level of critical analysis, among others 8. 7.

Attendance Policy: Students are expected to attend every class session. Instructors will inform students of the exact number of absences and late-arrivals permitted during the semester. Students who exceed these limits may be subject to failure. If a student misses any class or test, the instructor has the right to either grant or deny an opportunity to make up the work that was missed. In such cases, the instructor shall be the sole judge of the validity of a student's explanation for having missed the class or test. 12. Deductions for Late Arrival, Early Departure, and Unexcused Absences:

13. Policy for Make-Up Assignments or Quizzes: 14. Classroom Behavior: Behavior that disrupts, impairs, interferes with, or obstructs the orderly conduct, processes, and functions within an academic classroom or laboratory violates the student code of conduct and may result in disciplinary action. This includes interfering with the academic mission of NYIT or individual classroom or interfering with a faculty member s or instructor s role to carry out the normal academic or educational functions of his classroom or laboratory, including teaching and research. 15. Students with Physical or Educational Challenges: It is the policy of New York Institute of Technology to provide reasonable accommodations for students who are otherwise qualified but have disabilities, including learning disabilities, health impairments, and other disabling conditions. Possible accommodations include, but are not limited to, test schedule modifications, class relocation, and possible assistance in acquisition of necessary equipment. The college has an interest in helping students with disabilities to be competitive in this academic environment. Therefore, reasonable accommodations will be made upon proof both of disability and need for the accommodations. It must be understood that accommodations are meant to facilitate educational opportunities. Admission to NYIT and accommodations do not guarantee success. Therefore, in addition to accommodations, the college encourages utilization of auxiliary services available to all students to maximize opportunities for success. Students whose disabilities may require some type of accommodation must complete a request for accommodations form and an intake interview with their campus services coordinator prior to the academic semester. Accommodations maybe requested at any time during the semester; however, accommodations cannot be applied to past failures, only to future academic endeavors. Appropriate modifications of accommodations will be worked out on a case-by-case basis and will not necessarily incorporate all requested changes. Students for whom auxiliary services such as readers, interpreters, note takers, etc. have been approved should arrange these with their campus services coordinator. In addition to discussing appropriate educational modifications, the campus services coordinator will serve as a liaison with other college faculty and administration on behalf of students with disabilities. 16. Academic Integrity: Each student enrolled in a course at NYIT agrees that, by taking such course, he or she consents to the submission of all required papers for textual similarity review to any commercial service engaged by NYIT to detect plagiarism. Each student also agrees that all papers submitted to any such service may be included as source documents in the service s database, solely for the purpose of detecting plagiarism of such papers. Plagiarism is the appropriation of all or part of someone else s works (such as but not limited to writing, coding, programs, images, etc.) and offering it as one s own. Cheating is using false pretenses, tricks,

devices, artifices or deception to obtain credit on an examination or in a college course. If a faculty member determines that a student has committed academic dishonesty by plagiarism, cheating or in any other manner, the faculty has the academic right to 1) fail the student for the paper, assignment, project and/or exam, and/or 2) fail the student for the course and/or 3) bring the student up on disciplinary charges, pursuant to Article VI, Academic Conduct Proceedings, of the Student Code of Conduct. The complete Academic Integrity Policy may be found on various NYIT Webpages, including: http://www.nyit.edu/about/administration/academic_affairs/academics/resources_faculty.html. 17. 15 Week Topical Class Schedule Week Section Chapter Topic Wk 1 PART ONE: INTRODUCTION --- 1 Introduction to the Course Marketing Channels: Structure, Functions, and a Framework for Analysis Wk 2 PART TWO: CHANNEL DESIGN: DEMAND, SUPPLY, 2 Segmentation for Marketing Channel Design: Service Outputs AND CHANNEL EFFICIENCY Wk 3 3 Supply-Side Channel Analysis: Channel Flows and Efficiency Analysis Wk 4 4 Supply-Side Channel Analysis: Channel Structure and Intensity Wk 5 5 Gap Analysis Wk 6 PART THREE: CHANNEL 6 Channel Power: Getting It, Using It, Keeping It IMPLEMENTATION Wk 7 7 Managing Conflict to Increase Channel Coordination Case Study & Review Midterm Examination Wk 8 --- --- Wk 9 8 Strategic Alliances in Distribution Wk 10 9 Vertical Integration in Distribution Wk 11 10 Legal Constraints on Marketing Channel Policies Wk 12 PART FOUR: CHANNEL 11 Retailing INSTITUTIONS Wk 13 12 Wholesaling Wk 14 13 Franchising Wk 15 --- --- Presentations Final Examination
