I need to find a company that has faced and dealt with a marketing management/strategy -- analyze how they dealt with it. Any ideas other than Coke etc?

I'd take Apple if I were you, they went from almost going extinct in the industry (~10 yrs ago), to being a frontrunner. Obv something going right. Plus, they just released the new iPad, so you have some current info.

Do you think SL is active enough on a Sunday to do a cheap-o super bowl squares thing in a matter of 6 hours?

I'm confused about what you need? Most companies have a marketing strategy that they've created...

If you want a good advertising campaign, use BMW Films. If you're looking for a company that used a new strategy, use Burberry (They completely overhauled their marketing strategy in 97 when they got a new CEO. It was a huge marketing success story).

This is literally any company ever. You need to narrow your question down.

You know how, when you get a case of beer that's not refrigerated, so you put 1-2 in the freezer?

Yeah, bottles usually end up shattered.

Not tonight. PERFECT TIMING. Beer slushie.

You know like, right before it freezes, it starts to barely crystallize?

Delicious.

i think it was carrying a 30 in a backpack a mile and a half in the snow.

Hookah is pretty nice. I like it a lot better than cigars. Hate cigs.

But yeah, the first time I smoked I was really drunk, and proceeded to vomit a lot. Probably too late, but good luck and enjoy!

The Hookah was pretty good, I didn't really taste it a lot, got cherry. I didn't get sick but got a pretty good buzz. Had funa really chill enviorment with good music would smoke it again for sure
