Remember, the final marketing plan project should not contain information that was simply copied and pasted from previously completed assignments. Your Unit VII Final Project should contain a condensed summary of each of the sections previously submitted to form the concise final project. You should also include an introduction to your final marketing project. This assignment should be at least three pages in length and consist of the executive summary and the section summaries.
