Abstract

Marketing case studies provide context for analysis and decision-making designs in different business situations, companies, and industries.

A case sets forth, in factual manner, the events and organizational circumstances surrounding a particular marketing managerial situation. The purpose of this paper is to look at why case studies are used, problems using them and recommendations using standard and innovative methodologies for using them effectively.
