Abstract
With the National Sales meeting approaching, the Marketing department is requiring that every Regional Sales Manager do a short presentation to highlight how the consumers in their region don’t compare to the rest of the consumers in the whole United States. Since I am still working with the local Regional Sales Manager I am going to prepare a two-page memo that will explain how my territory is different from other territories nationally. I will do this by utilizing reports obtained from the American Marketing Association website, which include general and 1980 to 2000 Census Trend summaries, Income summaries, and Occupation and Employment summaries for both the entire U.S. and the 60614 zip code region.
