i need help with a discussion question for my principles of marketing class 1

Have you ever “liked” a company or product on Facebook? Participated in a company’s blog or posted pictures on their website? Do you and your friends have the next great commercial for Doritos? The snack food firm has turned user generated content into an advertising phenomenon.

How will you get your customers to participate? What’s in it for them? Be specific and share at least one example of a firm that has used a similar strategy.

Your opening post should be at least 350 words and feel free to include photos and samples of the content. As always, college level writing and grammar are expected.

In your responses, critique the examples your classmates have selected and add your ideas for the product or brand.
