Marketing Plan: Roofing (Commercial Sector) Location: Killeen Texas and all Central Texas
There are six parts to the plan. I suggest using the below as an outline to start your paper. Copy and paste it to a Word document and respond to each section.
Plan to include at least one citation in each section to justify your opinion. This means a total of at least six citations, but more are welcome. Additionally, there should be a works cited page with at least four separate resources included. Use MLA formatting for the citations and works cited page. Not sure how to format citations and works cited using MLA? We have great resources available; see below.
