and strengthen their businesses. Some other firms will take a different approach to an economic downturn. They
cut back on their marketing spending and wait for recession to pass. It also reviews some of the marketing
strategies that should be utilized if a company is to successfully navigate the economic downturn. It takes a look
at those things the company must do to prepare it for the expansionary economic activity period that follows a
recession. Finally, it ends with a conclusion and recommendation.
