We propose the following next steps to obtain the rest of the needed information: 1) A breakdown of advertising spend for Nestle within the last two years, by channel. We will provide this for both the US and on a global scale. 2) Any readily-available advertising spends for Nestle's subsidiaries. We will attempt to include 4-5 readily available marketing expenses in the US. 3) 4-5 examples of recent creative marketing campaigns for Nestle. We will expand to its subsidiaries if needed. Recent will be defined as within the last 2 years. 4) An overview of Nestle's global digital marketing strategy. The overview will include their main marketing messaging, who they target, and any marketing pain points they are experiencing. 5) Nestle's 2-3 biggest business challenges overall within the last 2 years. Challenges may be financial, internal issues, sales, consumer perception, or anything else notable that excludes marketing. For each challenge, we will provide an overview of what the challenge is, how it is impacting the company, and what the plans are to remedy the problem. 6) 2-3 additional controversies that Nestle has been involved in within the last 2 years. We can expand to 5 years if necessary. For each controversy, we will provide an overview of what happened, how consumers reacted, how it impacted the company, and how the company responded or attempted to remedy the issue.

Alternatively, instead of providing 4-5 readily available marketing expenses for any of Nestle's subsidiaries, we can attempt to provide the marketing spend of each and every subsidiary. We will try to triangulate this if it is not readily available.
