What BUSI 442 covers
Roberts and Zahay's Internet Marketing is read selectively, with chapters 4, 9 and 14 in the first half of the course and digital marketing case studies in Modules/Weeks 5, 7 and 8, along with three MindTap quizzes and two interactive exercises.
Forum replies carry the heaviest source rule in the program: each 300-word reply needs a biblical integration and two peer-reviewed studies. Research papers need 1,000 words and three scholarly references, topical papers 1,500 words and five references, and each project phase 2,500 words and eight scholarly sources, all beyond the textbook and the Bible.
The content of this course focuses on digital marketing strategies and techniques necessary for satisfying and retaining customers. In this course, students are presented with information and methods for driving and assessing overall lifetime customer value and resulting financial performance. The course content also encourages students to explore industry trends and their future impact on digital marketing.

Where BUSI 442 papers lose points
BUSI 442 work loses points when a forum reply is short of 300 words or missing one of its two studies, when papers summarize studies without applying them to a business, when the retention project treats all customers alike instead of segmenting by value, and when Phase 2 introduces figures or objectives that do not match Phase 1.
