This set of resources includes 1x PPT and 2x word files and can be delivered over 3 lessons. Learners are introduced to two main concepts 1) the product life cycle and 2) the boston matrix and how the two concepts are linked together. We start with looking at different stages a product goes through by looking at some real examples, students have the opportunity to become familiar with the cycle by creating their own - and describing what sales and costs are like at each stage too.
We then go on to look at the boston matrix, we look at each quadrant to understand the cash cows and dogs characteristics in depth. A group task to develop a marketing mix for a drink or a chocolate whilst considering the stage in the product life cycle - students can present their ideas back on the A3 sheet to the class. Another group task where students are given a business and they need to allocate the businesses products into the boston matrix, this could also be fed back or presented.

This lesson introduces learners to ethics and corporate social responsibility - this is also covered in theme 4, although with some differences such as the focus on pay and rewards. We start by looking at what is involved in ethics, with real examples of a number of unethical actions, for example the Primark factory in Bangladesh which collapsed and killed many workers, or the suicides that were committed in Foxconn in Shezhen due to the horrid working conditions.
We look at the advantages of being a socially responsible company before looking at some facts into CEOs pay. A case study on CEOs salaries and bonus makes for an interesting discussion where students can prepare arguments for and against the very high bonus’ CEOs receive.
Students can present their findings back in groups, and then answer a 12 mark question on the case study in class or for homework. Structure guidance and a concise model answer provided for students to identify WWW and EBI with their response.A box plenary to finish with.
