Introduction
There is a lot of math and science in marketing, but just how important is creativity in marketing?
Regardless what you may believe, creativity still holds much emphasis in successful marketing. If you
look around the huge marketing arena of the Internet, you can see products and services illustrated in a
million different ways.
Nowadays companies believe that simply being listed at the top of a search engine result is all that
matters. It matters, a lot, but without giving people something to rave about once they find your
company or product, and converting them into customers, fans, or something other than a ten second
click, it is worthless. It is a great challenge; however the diligent application of the creative process and
thought would facilitate to come up with the best solution.
In this Final Project students are required to explore their creativity and critical thinking skills in basic
marketing for a basic daily object. More specifically in the area of rebranding, packaging, promoting and
advertising a boring daily object.
Objectives of Project
The objectives of this project:
1. To understand the modes of thinking commonly associated with critical thinking (left-brain),
creative thinking (right brain) as well as holistic (whole brain) thinking.
2. To implement divergent and convergent thinking methods in researching, developing and
presenting ideas and conclusions in the form of tangible statements.
Learning Outcomes of this Project
On successful completion of this subject, students will be able to demonstrate the following:
1. Recognize the characteristics of critical and creative thinking and their applications in students’

personal and working lives
