EOC: week 10 what channels are you going to do to get your product out to the public?

Getting the product to the public can be at times a hard thing, there is what words to use, what media to use and at what times to use them, what is the best method to say to the public, not only on the product but on the products function to the buying public.

Upstream from the company is the set of firms that supply the raw materials, components, parts, information, finances, and expertise needed to create a product or service. Marketers, however, have traditionally focused on the “downstream” side of the supply chain—on the marketing channels (or distribution channels) that look toward the customer. Downstream marketing channel partners, such as wholesalers and retailers, form a vital connection between the firm and its customers. 10 Marketing Channels Delivering Customer Value (page 3) it is all about the chain and that means from the company employee to the store manager to the consumer, they are all a part of the process.
