Selling ads

Selling is directly or inderectly selling a product to a cutumer.

Focus group

This week in class we are learning all about information marketing. We have been learning the ways that companies find out what the customer wants. The method that we learned about today was a focus group. In the focus group we all tried a product and decided which one we like the most. Then we took a questionnaire to find out what about the product we liked and how much of the product we have seen advertising for. In the end the off brand product was liked the most.
This is an example of a focues group showing input from all over the world.

Transfer of product

Today in marketing we learned about distribution. Distribution is getting a product from point A to B. We had to get salt and water across the room and we had to use a straw, a paper towel and a spoon. We first tried trapping the water in the straw but that did not work so we had to suck the water up in to our mouths and transfer it that way. The salt we decided to put in the paper towel and scrape it out with the spoon. This worked really well because we could put all the salt in one load. This was to teach us all about how some time products are lost in the transfer process. In the end the team with the best strategy won.

Interview Questions

1.Tell me about you- Well when i explain myself to people its hard to say things that i like,this is because in every category that someone would ask me about i like many things in that category. Such as music, music has many genders and i like most but i cant stand country music i don't even know why maybe its the words or something else i just hat it. The same things go with foods i have never really been able to narrow it down but i really like pastas,pizza,seafood.... and it goes on forever. TV has become less impotent to me lately because i have so many other things that are fun like guitar, ukulele, playing sports and things that are out side.
2.I really have never liked a lot of my classes in school i always felt that i could be spending my time doing other things with my life right now my favorite class is sports marketing. In sports marketing i haven't gotten homework yet i don't have to take notes all the time and i get to use a computer that always helps and the environment is relaxed and there's not tunes of pressure.
3.I'm only OK at sports marketing because i have never really used computers much but what I'm learning is fun so I'm going to stick with it.
4. My strengths, i really am not good or great at anything but that's probably because i hate doing the same things to much so ill say I'm OK at most anything. Weaknesses are wide ranged but manly i am really bad at school most things that have to do with reading writing math or science.
5.Studying for tests is something that i hate doing, but if i dont do it i fail everything. I go overthings alot or work out problems are read the vocab. hounderds of times in the end it only helps a little bit.
6.What i would like to learn from this class, I would like to learn how to take my ideas and get them into the world and notest.
7.I think that work should be devided by the people in the group because some people like only some types of work and others like doing other types of work so I think the groups should divide their own work.
8.I would make a great team member because, I dont need to have things my way i like seeing how other people like things done. I will voice my thoughts but other then that im good with what the other two people in my group want. I can also make desitions too.
