P2 requires you to consider the actual promotion of a selected product of one of the companies you have studies for P1. Consider the price point, highlight product quality and how the campaign identifies how the organisation secures product placement so you can show how promotional activity is part of a broader marketing context.
For M1 you need to explain the connection between promotional activity and the achievement of the marketing aims and objectives and will require you to consider the importance of branding
For D1 you need to evaluate the effectiveness of the promotional campaign in achieving its aims and objectives. Back this up with evidence to show improved product sales from your research resulting from the campaign and you should balance this up with the appropriate costs of the promotion to confirm if this is a success or failure.
