As the marketing director for a large retailer, you have been given the task of understanding why consumer demand has decreased dramatically for one of the company's store-brand signature products. To understand this outcome, you will need to gather information from consumers and store employees. Once the data has been collected, you will analyze it and submit a report to the executive leadership team. Your paper should answer the original question and include a recommendation for resolving the problem based on your study's findings.

You may choose a company or crate a fictional one that can be used throughout this course.
