Explanation: The subject of the sentence is "new advertising campaign" and "launch of several new products," which are both singular. Therefore, the verb should also be singular, making option A incorrect. Options C and D are also incorrect because "profits" is plural and requires a plural verb. Option E is grammatically correct, but it lacks clarity because it does not use parallel structure to show that the advertising campaign and the launch of new products are two separate factors contributing to the rise in profits. Option B correctly uses a singular verb to match the singular subject, and it also uses parallel structure to clearly show that both the advertising campaign and the launch of new products are contributing factors to the expected rise in profits.
