eoc WEEK 10 WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS VS THE FEATURES

EOC WEEK 10

The top benefits on having an event for children is not just simply for the fact that it’s for children but it’s to make a difference in their life and to put a smile on someone that needs the help to take care of simply the needs that they are necessary for them to live day by day, as you know this event will be for that cause and all the money that is raised on that day will be donated to the Children’s miracle network foundation.

Competition is therefore more intense even as demand flattens, industry consolidation continues, and pricing pressures squeeze profitability. Worldwide, Nokia is the smart-phone leader, holding 45 percent of the global market. The runner-up is Research in Motion, maker of the BlackBerry, with 13 percent of the global market. In the U.S. market, BlackBerry is the market leader (with a 42 percent share) and Apple, maker of the iPhone, is the runner-up (with a 20 percent share). To gain market share in this dynamic environment, Sonic must carefully target specific segments with features that deliver benefits valued by each customer group.

The features that this event will have is that everyone can enjoy a day out with the family while looking around at great cars they can get some food from all local vendors which is also something that I am aiming for. To compete with store brands, national brands must sharpen their value propositions, especially in these lean economic times. In the long run, however, leading brand marketers must invest in R&D to bring out new brands, new features, and continuous quality improvements. when the new iPhone comes out some people are going to buy it just simple fact that is a iPhone but some people are going to see it and maybe buy for the features that the consumer can use and that they would like to use, they also buy it for the experience that they are going to have with the actual phone. that is what i want to for with my show i want the person car owner or spectator to come and join us not just because there is cars and entertainment but i want you to come and enjoy the experience that they are going to have at our charity event. that has a display of classic amd all sorts of vehicles that are show worthy.

Week 8: EOC Creative Content

EOC Week 8 Creative Content

The plan that is being put together is to have the car show at the Wal-Mart shopping center the way i would be doing a flyer that would be giving out the date time and all the event. I am also planning on building a BlogSpot for this event also, the way i would be promoting this event would be placing my flyers all over the place including in the store on the student lounge in the post office and the mail box by my house. Also i might be able to get the word out online in my social media and also in the radio station, i am not really going to rely so much on the radio station because i don't know if they would approve it or if they would allow it. As in for sponsors to pay for my insurance and some of the supplies I’m thinking of using lawyer Eric Palacios as one of my sponsors and also a Smog Busters that i know the owner for. I’ve talked with a Verizon wireless rep and i asked him if he would like to set up a booth at my show and spread their word also i can get someone from dish network and also from Cox communications to set up a table with all the information that they will provide for the customer so in a way i would be helping out with the information on those businesses and also kind of like a family event for everyone else not just car people and it all comes out to a good cause for children in our community. The goal for my event is to at least come up and raise $400 for the children’s miracle network and also help out other local businesses with the promotion.

Week: 7 The Pitch

Week:7 The pitch

I will have a car show to raise money for CMN as i call it which stands for the Children's Miracle Network its something that i have been wanting to put together for a while the car show will be in a parking lot of someone that lets me borrow it for the day I would be charging about $20 per vehicle and all the money that gets raised would all go to CMN. Ever since i was younger i liked helping out people specially kids and young teens that have a worst life than i did or do, my goal is to use the Wal-Mart shopping center parking lot and fill it with at least 15 cars so i can come up with $300 for CMN also for each car i would have them if they can donate more if possible on top of the $20. its a simple thing to say and to think of but its not as easy to put together and actually do. i spoke with the store manager and she said yes that i can use the parking lot just that i would have to have all the right permits. My goal for this event is to have raised at leas $400, why not make a difference in a child's life when it really doesn't cost us a lot if you really think about maybe a meal that you will sacrifice from your weekly routine.

For example, cable television and satellite television systems are booming. Such systems allow narrow programming formats such as all sports, all news, nutrition, arts, home improvement and gardening, cooking, travel, history, finance, and others that target select groups.

 Time Warner, Comcast, and other cable operators are even testing systems that will let them target specific types of ads to specific neighborhoods or individually to specific types of customers. For example, ads for a Spanish-language channel would run only in Hispanic neighborhoods, or only pet owners would see ads from pet food companies.

EOC Week 6- Me x3

when i walk into a camera shop basically every thing their is marketed towards me and what i do one of the actual products that i purchased at my favorite camera shop B&C Camera on Sahara and Valley view is a tamron lens 18-200mm this is one of the first lenses that i have purchased through out my whole photography career is a great product and it was directed towards me because its basically a all in one lens for what i was doing at the time which was racing and portraits
.
One great item that i have purchased and not been disappointed is my cell phone the Samsung Galaxy SII i like the way that is slick and the screen is relatively large one major reason that i purchased the phone was because of its screen size and the speed of the phone itself i love the fact that the screen is large because i can carry some of my photography work on my memory card and i can show it to who ever i need to show it i see it as a portable mini portfolio that i can show any one and to mention the resolution on the screen is just amazin.
.
over all another product that i felt that i needed to have and that it just called my name was the GoPro camera over all the stuff i do with photography i also race off-road in the Best in the desert series and the S.C.O.R.E series so this camera is a wonder when im trying to capture what i just went through and what i did one thing that i love about this is that the shaking it self does not affect the image a whole lot on the final picture its a great product that i made a good invest in and cant say that i dont like it.

Week 5: EOC Super Bowl Commercial

This is easily one of my all time favorite commercials because its so short and its hilarious even tho its promoting a alcoholic beverage in a way it kind of says that you can be in the snow with whom ever and still enjoy a nice cold beer in a way its trying to say that you can be somewhat romantic and still be able to drink this beer with out looking bad or under dressed sort of say for the occasion. also at the end when the other guy tells his girlfriend wow cool sled was just another touch to the ending of telling us how the horse kept on passing gas.

WK 4 EOC: Business vs. consumer buying behavior

WK-3 EOC: Making Money for good

One of the most companies or foundations that really stand out for me since i first ever saw it is the company or foundation (RED) this foundation really stands out for me because of who backs it up ive seen Bono back it up and i was just amazed and knew it was a great thing to do now there is so many artist that back this up when all it took was just one person to stand up what (RED) does is it helps out the people in Africa with the medications that they need but not just anyone they take care of the people who have HIV but when they say that they help people with HIV is not just by getting it by having unprotected sex with another person kids are born like this and its passed by not just sexual part but by open wounds that they all have. large companies such as Coca-Cola, Apple, Starbucks, Monster Dr,Dre beats, Belvedere yes the vodka they all support and give money to this foundation im sure that there is more companies i believe that even Converse has a pair of shoes that when you buy a pair you are donating to this cause. Its a great cause to donate i started to donate and buy products when i saw that it was a big deal and not just some phony foundation that tried to get famous by making things up sort of like the whole kony2012 that was going around.

WK-3 EOC: My Demographics

Born in the late 80s is not how everyone thinks it is, i was born in Texas and i am American/Mexican and to us having a computer or technology was being wealthy my mother is part of the baby boomer and so is my father im glad to say that both of my parents know how to use a computer they both have smart phones and know what to do with them i remember when i first started to show my mother how to use her android phone it was crazy and fun but at the same time i got a little aggravated at times but she learned how to use it and now she is always one it and texting all the time and reading the news on her smart phone. what i remember the first time i used the INTERNET was during school we had to go through a course and be able to get a sticker on our school id that said that we were able to use the web to search for stuff i felt like i was amazing because i was one of the first students to be able to have that sticker on my ID also one of the things that get to me is when i see a child with a smart phone or that tells their parent i NEED a phone when i was at a young age my cell phone was two quarters i also never had the luxury of having a cell phone untill the day that i could pay my own bill. I also remember the day i got my first camera it was a old hand me down from my mom and it was a old 35mm camera that it was all busted and almost falling apart but i took such great care of that and i know i liked photography since i was at a young age. i thank my mother everyday for giving me a hint and a push to what i love to do and for everything she has done for me till this day.

WK.2 EOC: Boston Consulting Group- Video Games

 I strongly believe that it all depends on what the age group is the system for that you can separate them and compare them as cash cows, dogs, question marks, or stars even though that PlayStation3 and the Xbox 360 have a big competition over each other if you want to place it over all as a group i would go with Xbox 360 as a cash cow reason being is that they have a lot more game options and accessories than PS3 does and now that they have Kinect it totally kicks the PS3 out of the water because you dont have to buy extra parts to be able to play it also over all the systems only and not the company the one that would be the biggest seller would be Nintendo's DS or the DSi any of those systems are the cash cows because they are inexpensive and people can afford them i see it as a retail point of view since i do work in a Electronics dept and sell this all the time to Kids, Parents, Teens one that would be a dog would be PS3 and the Nintendo Wii for some reason people don't like the whole having a wand and a nun-chuck to have to play the game but at the same time they love the price of the Wii.  

Week 1: Customer Service

A great customer service experience that has occurred to me during some of my shopping experience
happened at The Cracked Egg when I went to have breakfast with my sister on a Saturday morning
we were helped by a new server that we have not seen and didn’t know how she worked and on how
she would stand her grounds. At first I was a little worried or uncertain if I wanted her as a waitress
since our normal one was off, as soon as we sat down she came to us gave us our name and was really friendly with us we ordered our drinks and she brought them right away with no mistakes. We ordered our food and just as well she had it right on the spot and did not make any mistakes on that and when I say that I am very specific on what I like to order for breakfast she also kept our drinks and all of wants right on the spot, she kept on asking if everything was ok but at the same time she was not to overly asking it was just perfect to my standards. Now on Saturday morning that we go have breakfast we sit on her table and enjoy our morning breakfast all the time.

Wk .1 My Voice

What I look for and want to get out of becoming a professional is opening my own studio were if you
need a family portrait for your living room you can come to my studio and we can set up whatever you
have in mind and want to do and we can create that photograph, also if you are a upcoming model or
actress, singer, musician, etc. anyone can that need photos can come and get your photos taken here
also have workshops for students that want to learn more about the profession or even just other
photographers out there that would like to join. One thing that I would do is become a photography
teacher at a high school or even at a college that is one of my biggest goals in life, because I want to get
out there what I know and share with other people and kids what I know and show them how beautiful
photography can be and what you can express with just one photograph. I would love to also work
with underprivileged kids that don’t have the financial support to do art or to go to workshops and even
going to schools and be a guest speaker to show that you can do it no matter how hard it gets.
