You are required to build a practical skills portfolio, demonstrating a small integrated

A template document is available on Moodle. You should submit your portfolio using
Turnitin on Moodle.
Using your understanding of the promotional mix and available digital communication
channels, including social media, you will submit 5 examples of digital
communications that show your understanding of digital marketing tools to achieve
given objectives.
Your portfolio will include examples of digital communications, such as:
 Mock-up web pages
 Social media posts
 Other digital media content (such as blog articles)
Your digital communications plan should be designed to attract and persuade the

words) in which you are required to
 Briefly discuss the importance and application of digital marketing tools in
contemporary marketing
 Justify, using reference to academic theory, practitioner sources and practical
examples from real companies, how effective you believe the integrated digital
marketing tools you have chosen would be at persuading the customer to
respond and why.
You should reference all sources using the Harvard referencing system.
Assessment Preparation and Submission:
See section 12 of the module guide for Guidelines on the Preparation and Submission
of Assignments.

You are required to submit a soft copy via “Turn-it-in UK” on the module Moodle page.
The software will allow you to check your work against other material on the internet. It
will also compare your work against other students work.
You will be able to upload drafts of your written work into turn-it-in as many times as
you wish before the deadline.
You will not be able to overwrite the final submission after the deadline. You can only
submit a single file.
Advice:
