Wacky Inflatable Tube Man! Wacky Inflatable Tube Man! Wacky Inflatable Tube Man!

Ads are designed to catch our attention and make us buy the company's product. Some are good and some are just down right terrible. Now, there's a lot more funny commecials that combine the 4 P's and make us beleive that we just have to have their product. Like this one for instance:


It's geared toward the extreme gamer or the 'just want it' gamer. This add saids a lot of things. Like i'm the more futureistic gaming console, you must buy me! I mane i'd buy it.

I Forgot What This Post Was About..............

Oh, so yea this blog was supposed to be about the seven key functions that we have learned about. Anyway, the seven key functions are Selling, Distribution, Promotion, Pricing, Financing, Product/Service Management, Marketing Information Management. These correspond with each other because first when you need to say, sell a product you need to know who are you going to sell it to.(product/service management) How are you going to market you product so a group of people will buy it? Are your plans to promote it affective? (promotion/marketing information management) When you have all that figured out, the most important thing still has to be sorted out. How much are are you going to charge for your product/service? Is the group of people you're marketing to going to be able to afford you product? When you are starting up any new product or service, these are the most important things you need to consider.

My Favorite Superbowl Comercial

Aww jeez, there was a tone of superbowl comecials that I liked so it's hard to just pick one. So i'm going to pick three. The comercial the stuck out most to me was the Pepsi New Anthem comercial:

Because I know who Bob Dylan is thanks to my dad I see what connection the were making between then and now.
The other two is this one:

Babies are just awsome.

And this one:


Because even though men are really dumb, the are the coolest creatures ever!!!!!
And the don't get hurt easily. lol!

What was that?

My group and I just participated in some kind of "experiment". I required that we transport sat and water using only a paper bag, straw, napkin and a plastic spoon. So how we made it work. (Justin did most of the work) I would have been to hectic having every group member up there. (even thought that's what the majority of the groups did) It was cool I guess we didn't win but it was fun.

There's No "I" In Team....

Today we were told to read all of the students blogs and choose someone as your teammate according to their blogs. I think I chose a good teammate, he seems quiet but I think he's going to be a hard worker. I excited to see what we will be doing for the next four months in this class. i think it ought to be fun. We are still waiting on an incoming team remember, I'll be sure to update this blogger when I meet him.

Shnikies i'm being interviewed!!! (Q&A)

You can ask anyone who knows me and they'll tell you that food and I have a very special relationship. (wow) But yea, I love food, so I'll eat pretty much anything. If it swims, clucks, oinks or moos, I'll eat it. I like to look at TV, while I don't think I watch TV that much some people (i.e. my parents) might say other wise. I really love cartoons. (jeez, I'm about to be 18 in four months huh?) Old ones new ones, cartoons for older people. (Simpson's, Family Guy etc.) But I rather read a good book and listen to my ipod. (I'm finishing up The Road by Cormac McCarthy).
On the subject of entertainment I must say that I don't view music as entertainment like other people may. Personally I think music is an religion. I love music very much I feel as if I'm nothing without it. My family can tell you I always have my ipod with me and tent to tune out everything else. I can listen to music for hours. If I had to choose between my TV and my ipod, I'd pick my ipod. I used to be in chior for 5th to 8th grade. I can't really tell you why I stopped singing, i'm not sure myself really. But I love to write and the bulk of my writing are songs. The one thing I got out of chior was how relaxing/ soothing singing is and I also know how to read sheet music. I realize that to a lot of people it would just be a peice of paper with a bunch of music notes. But to me it's a whole lot more.
Anyways, sorry about the story. Since I love to write so much my favorite subject would have to be English. It's one of my strongest subjects and I'm recognized for it more than my other subjects. I also really enjoy history class, I don't see why people wouldn't. Like many other students, I ABSOLUTELY HATE MATH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hate to say that I in fact don't study for test I just do it, and I normally make a good grade on the test. (I don't know how that works but it does.)
I chose to take this class because I know so many people ion bands and I figured that this class could show me how to market them. Not to mention that I hope to work at a record label or own my own label. I think when working in a group/team it's important to know where each member is comfortable. Do they prefer to type up information, draw, or speak in public? I think I make a great team member, I'm not countroling nor do I boss people around. If anything i'm the main person ask others what should we do and if I create something, make sure that they agree with it or are there wways to make it better.

Like we need more energy drinks?

My team and I will be making up a mock billboard for energy drinks. When we got our assignment to chose a product to market, we immediately picked energy drinks. Who doesn't like a good energy drink right?
