This Assignment can be begun now. It will be due to be turned in during week 14 of our Class,
that is, the end of the Semester. However, it will only begin to make the most sense around Week
session 7, so you may want to wait until then to begin doing much work on this. But I did want
to give the Assignment now (and I will remind you of it at Week session 7) so those wanting to
work ahead can go ahead and be thinking about this.
Please do this Assignment in Microsoft Word or Apple Pages. Or, you may submit it to me in the
Portable Document Format (Adobe Acrobat) that we use to post items for the class. In addition
to Acrobat itself, there are various programs that translate into PDF. You can also use the Rich
Text Format, that is, a file ending in .rtf. These are the only accepted formats for the Assignment.
Instructions will be given later on how to submit this Assignment for credit. There will be a link
at Week session 14 to allow for the submission of this. If you complete it before then, you can go
ahead and scroll down to Week 14 and click the link and submit it.
Please turn to pages 188,189 in your textbook. There, is discussed in chart form the various
components of the organizing process. This is contextually placed within several pages of
discussion of these components.
To go along with our thinking relative to marketing on the Internet, I want each student to come
up with a structure for an Internet-marketed company. This company can be completely fictional,
or it can be something real that you are familiar with or imaging to bring into existence.
This structure should involve the various components of the organizing process. You may use
narrative, charting or whatever to get your point across. Please keep any narrative portions single
spaced, 12 point type, some standard proportional typeface for text.
Just tell and/or show what the different levels of structure will do in your organization. For
instance, front line supervisors might be responsible for overseeing customer service personnel,
distribution personnel, etc. Just tell and/or show the structure, what the functions are and how
those will be carried out.
The Assignment, when complete, should be at least three pages long and no more than ten pages
long. As long as the paper is at least three pages long, the grading on this will have nothing to do
with the size of the paper, but rather only its content. Do not count a title page or bibliography as
fulfilling the requirement for at least three pages. Again – single spacing.
Please make all of your discussion for this project relative to something that would be done on the internet.
