MOVIE

1. There has been debate over if this movie is genuine or a "mockumentary". What do you think? If it was a mockumentary - why would Bansky do this? I think it is genuine because someone isn't just going to make a movie that costs movie for a stupid reason if he isn't trying to get a message across to his viewers. 2. What do you think the street artists are trying to get across to the public with their graffiti? Telling people that graffiti isn't just for nonsense reasons. How can you tell they were effective? The turnout for the art show 3. What do you think that Mr. Brain Wash was trying to get across to the public with his art? graffiti has a point. Was he effective?yes 4. What do you see as the key differences between the street artists work and MBW's work? one is artwork that people interpret properly the other is just graffiti that people think is bad. 5. At the end of the show lots of people showed up to the art show. Why the long line?Cuz there was so many people. What brought so many people together? the realness of the art 6. Graffiti: Is it art or vandalism? Art How would you react to someone painting on your wall? Wouldnt care What similarities do you see between graffiti and guerilla marketing?Not everyone gets it Where is the line for Shepard Fairey or Banksy, when they move from making art against the mainstream machines into making money off of their art from the mainstream machines? when he creates the art peices Did they sell out or did they achieve success? they achieved sucess

Customer service

Customer service is m portant because if there was no one to help the customers they could just pick stuff up and walk out the door and shoping would be very difficult because there would be no one to shoe people where things are or to order the inventory or anything else it would just be a total disaaster

He was rtalking baout how you need to be one of the customers and that customer service is key to making money like just because u have money dosent mean u you will keep the money

TED

Newtons law: force=MASS*Acceleration because they angles the plane of going down n escalator that makes it look like it is going straight into the ground according to newtons law. The more people who know about the brand find out more "baggage" about the company that people like which makes it more difficult tp get rid of that baggage which relates exactly to newtons law, Why do people allow there business to accumulate that much baggage

Ugly Christmas Sweater

you could tell them that if they buy it they get another thing for free or you could tell them that if they buy the sweater they are supporting a country or something or you could tell them that everyone is wearing them these days Sell it at a time when it is needed Do not ask over and over let the people decide Make sure that the customer is entertained by ads and such that will make the customer happy You are supposed to make the product look good so maybe put it on to advertise

Agree

"If goods were sold only for cash, prices would be lower and everyone would be better off." Disagree because using debit or credit it a convenience to many people. "If I can't pay for something, it means I can't afford it, so I won't buy it."False that means that you do not have the funds to buy it at all not being able to afford it means that they may have some money but not enough for that particular item "I buy on credit whenever I can because credit increases sales and is good for businesses." Disagree it makes things in the stores more expensive "You should use credit sometimes: it helps you establish a credit rating, which may be useful in case of an emergency" true building a good credit is important to achieve things.

PYP

What did you like about the product? It was easy to use and the idea of personalizing your own yearbook page is very cool as well. What did you wish was different? I wish that you could make more than just 4 pages for yourself because u may have more of your life to include in your yearbook. Who would this product appeal to? Any students in a school who receive yearbooks. How could you market to them within the school? offer them to students telling them that they can make their own yearbook pages.

Four Types of Ads There are basically four different kinds of ads The institutional ad The coupon ad The sell ad The advertorial My least favourite ads are the Dairy Queen commercial on t.v
This is my favorite AD
GOOD AD
BAD AD The one works because i can relate it to reality and one is totally made up and pointless that is why i can not relate to it

Guerilla marketing

i liked the Quarter one the best because no only does it make people stop and look but it also show the customers that might buy the product at a later date know what it is all about like in the quarter video it showed the customer just how strong the glue is by making them try to get the quarter off the ground and they added a small ad that lets the people know what is happening and what product was used to make it happen but it is also small so it does no give away the joke like for example if they put a huge poster that said try to pick up this Quarter most people would assume its a joke and not even bother to look

Generation Y

Do you think they are right about generation Y? Yes i think they are right even tho i dont know much about this generation YU i beleive everything they are saying is true because when it comes to reality it seems like it relates well to real life. How can you use this "consumer behaviour" analysis to further your company? I can use this to interact with my customers by making them happy and knowing what the generation Y wants, so therefor you can give them exactly what they want.

it's quite common in start up businesses, those which are growing too fast or those which are make the majority of their sales in only a small part of the year. Profits are due to your income being due greater than your expenses. Solvent is due to having cash in the bank to pay your bills.

What is working

What is working well with your group for this project? All of the views on the company are the same. What do you wish would work better? I wish there were more people in the group to do more. How can you work better? by hiring more people into the company and making it so that everyone does an equal amount. How can you encourage others to work better? By showing them that is is not fair that one person does all the work while the others sit around.

Bad reputation

Businesses can end with a bad reputation from the following. There can be a dirty restaurant or something like that an then one customer finds out and spreads it all around. Sometimes the bad reputations may not be the company's fault. Like maybe the person who starts a rumor is just mad and decides to target people for no reason. The way to avoid this is to make sure everything is done right.

his ideas

His ideas are not good. The cheaper things get price wise usually the quality gets cheaper as well. So i think it is not a good idea to create energy for the world that is cheaper because everyone complains about how everything is expensive. But if you look at it in my perspective people will always find something to complain about. So if you make the price cheaper they will complain about quality and u make the price higher and they will complain about the price. Just leave everything the way it is!

Morals

I think he meant that it is wrong to do what you have morals for when really you know that you could be doing the right thing. For example telling someone in an ad they are buying a phone that is totally working and is in good condition but only 1 of those statements is true. Like you take them the phone to buy and everything looks perfect but then saying that it is dead so they can try it. When they get home and in the ad it said that the phone was with Rogers but after they buy the phone they take it home and charge it and find out that the phone is for bell. Even though your moral may be not to lie you didn't lie the phone is in perfect condition and it works but it is for the wrong company.

What to do if?

- Your friend asks you to add a few extra hours to a work time sheet for him, but you know that he did not put in the time. Dont do it because you could get fired for his stupidity - A salesperson in an electronics store offers to sell you an iPod after hours at a discounted price. Don't buy it because your broke anyways - You are aware that the teller gave you back too much money when completing a banking transaction. give it back because what if one day you accidentally give to much money to some one karma might be a female dog

Morally Wrong =(

I think a product that is totally wrong in my eyes would be Any product that puts down another specific product directly on the label like if it is a toilet cleaner that is from Mr.Clean it shouldn't say on the label we are better than Lysol it should say better than the leading competitor. like for example on the Chevorlet truck commercial they allow Chevorlet to say that not only they are better then Ford and Dodge they also allow them to put a truck from each of the other company's in the commercial and make them look like crap by driving them slower or something like that i think that it is just wrong

Occupy wall street /Calgary herald

i think it was kind of uncalled for there was no need for them to start protesting in the city of calgary and disturbing a whole bunch of people all they are doing is bandwagoning and trying to be like the americans on wall street when the situations are two totally different things the americans had a reason to start protesting where i think the canadian protesters just band wagoned and made up there own reasons to do nothing but cause ruckus and stand around if they wanted so badly to protest buy a plane ticket on New York

Statement

i think that the statement is very true we should live in a world with equal opportunities like everyone should have healthcare and dental care and all of the other necessities to be a healthy happy person. Not only the rich should be healthy just because they have money to pay for all of these things . I think this has become so popular because she is a more wealthy person and she is giving up her house and wealthy lifestyle to live on the street and stick up for the people who believe in what she believes in

Tuesday, 11 October 2011


  • Who is Occupy Wall street about?

    What facts or characteristics are true of good advertisements:Most people like to see the ad and read it themselves instead of hearing it from someone else.

    =D

    All of the Competitors have the same product/service they all provide lawn care and snow removal for people in the city and area. Most of the people that are real business charge by monthly or weekly so it is like a subscription whenever it is needed it will be provided to all customers the average cost is 30$ weekly or 150-200$ monthly for total lawn care. They make signs and such to put around the city and after they have someone sign a subscription they put a sign in the ground that has their logo and phone number on it unfortunately we were not able to talk to any of the people that are in our business category.

    WHat i learned

    i learned that it is hard to stay awake when you have to watch something very boring and it gets kind of annoying when you hear a man go on and on and on about something you understand nothing about and it makes no sense to you but your teacher forces you to sit and watch what the man has to say even though it might be educational it make no sense to me but it may make sense to others who are interested in things that make almost too much sense but then again everyone has their likes and dislikes which is totally ok=D

    How could it help my business

    It would help our business by telling people when you go to their door instead of telling them we are donating to a certain charity tell them that we will allow them to write beside their name The name of the charity that they would like all of their money to go to. So it is more allowing them what charity they would like to support instead of forcing them to donate to a charity that the may not support in or they may think that another charity is going to change more things with the money then the charity we picked.

    Non Profit: Is where no money is made most of all workers are volunteers
    Not For Profit:All money made goes right back into the business no profit is made it is like a big circle

    Difference between non profit and not for profit: non profit makes no money not for profit makes money but all money goes back into the company

    Difference between Profit,Costs and expenses: Profit the money you make from your company-Costs what money it takes to run the business-Expenses the money it takes to purchase the goods to run the buisness

    How Speakers Make Their Speeches Different

    They make their speech different by sometimes not just answering the questions but asking them as well and the more outgoing and talkative they are the easier it is for them to speak loud and speak their mind then it would be for a shy person that is not very good at talking to or in front of people

    What would happen if everyone had unlimited money

    I think the buisness would be pointless because u already have all the money you dont have to work to make the money and there is no point in running a buisness if you don't have to work for your money and not having a limited supply is like a big circle that goes around and around and never ends. So overall if you dont have a limited supply of money your buisness is pointless!
