Great course that is thorough in content. Only criticism is the quizzes seemed unnecessarily "tricky." If the quizzes leaned slightly more toward reinforcing course material would be ideal.

I learned so much in this course from Professors Rodas and Noel. And Prof. Noel's stimulating delivery keeps you engaged. If you want to "win" at marketing...learn from those who've won!

Very basic introduction to Marketing. Interested to step it up in the next level.

Minus a star, however this reflects some of Coursera's offerings overall now that I've taken a few different classes. I think some information may be outdated or perhaps has been omitted over the years. I scoured through the lectures and readings to find specific answers on the quizzes to no avail. The quizzes offer no hints or places to find the answers, even when you pass. I want to make sure I know everything before moving on and my time is precious. The point is to learn so please point students in the right direction for quiz questions, especially if they pass.

I have learned a lot of practical stuff in this class. Most importantly, identifying unmet needs, considering the 5C and finding a marketing mix (4P) along with STP.
