Please select a brand that has a brand problem. For example, recent player legal troubles have been a problem for the NFL brand. Another example is the Bonefish Grill, the country’s second largest seafood chain after Red Lobster. Although their check average is more than $3.00 less than Red Lobster, many consumers see that brand as “expensive”.

You job is to develop an IMC brief. This deliverable will be used to instruct an external company that will be hired to develop an integrated marketing communications (IMC) campaign for your company. Your deliverable will be presented in four to five page paper and will follow APA6 formatting guidelines including a cover page and reference page (Those two pages are included in the page count. Therefore, only two to three pages of actual content is needed).
