*I have attached my week 3 paper for you to build on.
The first advertisement that was written about was the Coca Cola share a coke campaign.

INSTRUCTIONS:
In Week 3, you analyzed an advertisement for a global product based on a set of advertising concepts. You are going to use your week three assignment and build on that in your final paper.

For your Final Paper, locate one additional advertisement for the same product, using the same medium, but targeted for a different country (e.g., if you chose a print ad for Pepsi in the United States for Week 3, you might choose a print ad for Pepsi in Japan for this assignment).

Although these two advertisements were designed for the same product and the same medium, you should notice a few differences, based on the target market. Examine the similarities and differences between the two advertisements.

In your eight- to 10-page paper,

Provide a brief overview of the two countries selected (e.g., location, general characteristics, etc.), the company, and the product being advertised (note: this should be the same product for both advertisements).
Describe the segmentation strategy of the target market in each country.
Describe each of the four types of segmentation strategies (i.e., demographic, psychographic, geographic, and behavioral).
Describe which type(s) of segmentation strategy is used in the two advertisements and why.
Identify where the product is in the product life cycle curve.
Discuss the companys marketing mix strategies of the product (based on where the product is in the product life cycle curve).
Describe at least five elements of the creative strategy statement you identified by looking at each advertisement (refer to pp. 195-196 in your textbook, in the Writing the Creative Strategy section.).
Describe the medium used for both advertisements (both advertisements should use the same medium).
Discuss some of the pros and cons of medium used (i.e., was it an ideal medium for the product, based on the FCB grid on p.139 of your textbook?).
Examine how both advertisements reflect the two cultures, specifically in relation to color scheme, general design, and imagery.
Explain the ethical considerations that should be kept in mind when advertising for each of the two countries.
Describe what concerns, issues, and societal impacts might result if each of the two advertisements were presented to the opposite countries.
Explain the legal and cultural aspects of each advertisement.
Recommend additional suggestions that would make these advertisements more effective for their targeted countries based on the concepts above (imagine you are the advertising manager for this product for this section).

American Express

Create a list of AMEX’s external benefits of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and social sustainability initiatives. These can be put in a table format.  This includes the benefits that can accrue to stakeholders, society and as well as the company in doing these programs.

Citing the key readings are very important here, as they discuss many benefits.
For example, one benefit is a charitable donation. The benefit provide a tax deduction, hence the company reaps a financial benefit. It also possibly garners some good will by consumers (if it is reported by the media).  There may be other benefits as well that are strategic and related to effective management.

Explain how a CSR strategy fits the firms management culture that values employees.

We probably all have read a newspaper at some point in time.  Maybe at some point you have wanted to be a journalist; well, heres your chance.  You will write a print journalism news-story for this assignment with some information that will be given to you below.  You are to write this story as if you have done investigation (as if you were the investigative reporter); and, remember, the information below is what you have found out through your investigation.  You are required to utilize the following information to write a news-story (that is, take the following information and create your story):

This is some of what you found during your investigation..The following information is from a police officer by the name of John Stanton (all of this information is from his filed report):
Michael Jenson was arrested for drunk driving and for running into an elementary schools playground.
The accident happened in a school zone during school hours.
The school was Diane Winborn Elementary School.
The vehicle was traveling east on Prince George Lane when the driver literally drove off the road and into the school yard.
The silver vehicle was a Chevy Silverado.
The accident happened this morning at 9:30 a.m.
The truck has been impounded.
The truck was traveling approximately 55 mph in a 20 mph school speed zone.
Michael has been charged with a DUI (received citation).
Michael has been charged with speeding in a school zone (received citation).
Michael has been charged with reckless driving in a school zone (received citation).
Other information you found in your investigation:
Nobody was hurt from the accident.
The vehicle struck a swing set.
Stanton said: We were very fortunate to not have anyone hurt during this freak accident.
Jensons bail has been set at $3,000.
If convicted, Jenson could face up to five years imprisonment or up to a $75,000 fine.
A teacher form the school witnessed the accident.
The teachers name is Michelle Fogerty (the witness).
Fogerty said: If it wasnt for that swing set, he probably would have driven right into a classroom.  I guess the swing set literally saved some kids lives today.
Fogerty called 911.
A school official, Bob Mitchel (Assistant Principal),  mentioned with a smile: Were gonna have to rebuild that swing in the exact same place.
Helpful Hints:

When we write a news-story, we try to tell the story in present tense.
Most stories are written in the inverted-pyramid style of reporting (see the diagram for clarification/help).  Try to write your story in this style (you will not be penalized if you are unable to successfully write your news-story in this style).
You will have to decide what the more important information is and what the not so important information is.  Consequently, you probably would want to write this news-story by keeping the main information you found in your investigation (which is listed above) as the top element of the inverted-pyramid style of reporting (that is, the most important, newsworthy, or dramatic information).  See the diagram for more information.
Be as accurate as possible.
Be objective, and do not be opinionated.
You will want to check out the following sites before you start writing to get an idea how journalists have to virtually write an everyday basis (the links include tips on lead writing, writing in AP Style, and writing in inverted pyramid format):
