the parallel elements are :
"to conduct and to generate"
we can eliminate options A/B and C for violating the parallelism error
(A) While taking the time to conduct market surveys and generating advance hype is necessary,- parallelism error
(B)While taking the time to conduct marketing surveys and generating advance hype is necessary,-parallelism error
(C)While taking the time to conduct marketing surveying and generating advance hype is necessary,-parallelism error
(D)Taking the time to conduct market surveys and to generate advance hype is necessary,
we need to use "while" to join to clauses!!-- option D has a construction error
(E)While taking the time to conduct market surveys and to generate advance hype is necessary,--correct!

Quote:
First glance -- parallelism signal "and" -- make sure the verbs are parallel. Changing structure "to conduct" vs "to generate" vs "generating" --> "to conduct" stays the same in all of the choices so "to generate" is correct here.
Also need to make sure the opening modifier logically precedes the rest of the sentence.
A) Incorrect parallelism. Should be "to generate" Eliminate.
B) Incorrect parallelism. Should be "to generate" Eliminate.
C) Incorrect parallelism. Should be "to generate" Eliminate.
D) Illogical opening modifier -- comma spliced. Eliminate.
E) Correct. "to conduct" and "to generate" are parallel. Opening modifier logically precedes the rest of the sentence.
