About this Specialization
Applied Learning Project
Learners will gain an understanding of how to build, incentivize, and redesign efficient and effective routes-to-market for products and services via the use of intermediaries such as wholesalers, retailers, and a range of possible channel partners. Through the use of lectures, case studies, and guest speakers, learners will be able to assess, evaluate, and recommend changes to build, improve, and revise new and existing channel strategies.
New sources of value, outside of the traditional product and service offering, are identified that better accommodate and ultimately optimize "how the customer wants to buy." Strategies for improving purchase convenience, service offerings, and information at the right place and time across omnichannel settings are identified and critiqued.
