Survey Response

The idea behind my survey was to figure out good ways to advertise for the hockey team this year and try to get more people to go to the games. I was thinking of using the morning announcements, social media, and flyers on the wall as a way as advertising. I found that everyone who took the survey (10/10 people) has an Instagram, and only 1 person who took it did not have a twitter (9/10 have a twitter). This shows me that making a twitter account and/or an Instagram account would be a good way of reaching out to people. For morning announcements and flyers, it was almost an even split (6/10 for listen to announcements and pay attention to flyers) of people who pay attention to flyers and announcements. This shows me that using flyers and the announcements would not be a bad idea, but would not be as effective as using social media.  I could make my survey more effective by talking more about specifically what the social media would be about, and try to persuade them that following the account would be informative and worth their time.

I had 10 people respond to my survey.

Marketing-Real

Three ways we can accomplish our goal is by making flyers and handing them out at lunch and after school, making a twitter account so followers can receive live updates on the event, and we can have an announcement read over the loudspeaker promoting our event so all students can hear what it is.

Goal for Project: We pan to hand out flyers and hang up flyers around the school promoting the boys hockey team and their upcoming season.

p. 85 Questions

5.1 Assessment

1.) A business is all of the activities involved in producing and marketing goods and services.

2.) The two primary functions of business are the production and the marketing of goods and services

3.) Four ways businesses can be classified are (1) by size, (2) by profit orientation, (3) by market served, and (4) by kind of product provided.

4.) E-commerce is important because it makes buying and selling products easier for customers and sellers. For example, if somebody on the east coast wants something from a business on the west coast, they can buy it online and have it shipped to their door so they don't have to travel all that way cross-country. It also makes it easier for businesses to keep track of their customers and what their stores have enough of and what they need.
