## MARKETING MIX ELEMENTS – PLACE (2)
### Slide Content
This PowerPoint slide provides insight into the "Place" aspect of the marketing mix, discussing key components that businesses must consider. 'Place decisions include' is the precursor to a list describing significant considerations:
- **distribution channels** (the paths a product takes from producer to end consumer),
- **logistics** (coordinating the movement of goods and services),
- **transportation** (methods and means of moving products), and
- **centers of distribution** (facilities where goods are processed and dispatched).
### Graphical Look
- A large, blue rectangular shape with a folded corner to suggest a layered effect, standing vertically on the left side of the slide.
- On the blue background, there is a white icon representing a map marker positioned over two folded maps or documents, relating to the theme of "Place."
- To the right of the blue shape is a rectangular text box with a light grey background and a darker grey border, containing the bulleted list.
- The font color of the header is black, while the listed items have a combination of bold and standard fonts, also in black.
- Slide number '13' is featured in the bottom right corner in grey color.
The overall look of the slide is clean and professional, with ample spacing and a clear focus on the content. The use of a single bold icon and contrasting colors aids in conveying the concept of "Place" within the marketing mix.
### Use Cases
