Alex's Daddy Talks.....4-12/May 18

I. Alex's Dad will talk about marketing

II. The beginning of class consisted of a daily report by quigz and Kelly. I really can not really remember much about their daily report. All I do remember is that Eric said how some kind of rabbit that is extremely small is on the verge of extinction. Its called a pygmy rabbit, and unfortunately the only male one died yestarday, so there are only 2 females left, obviously meaning that can not reproduce. I will really miss the pygmy rabbit! Then we got to be photograhed by Lindsey Morgan and Tori Brock. They made us put on these black shirts and go in a dark room and they took our picture. I was so excited when we had this "photo shoot" because I am secretly a high class european model. I would have been even better off if they had a fan during pictures. I could have let my hair fly in the breeze and look pretty sweet. I gave 'em some fantabulous poses. Then when photos were all said and done, Alex's daddy talked to us about marketing. He is the VP in charge of marketing of a chain of hospitals in the area. One main thing he talked about was how certain companies made blunders in marketing. The funniest was definitely with Barbie breaking up with Ken. I remember when I heard that news, and I cried. Then he said how coke messed up with changing their formula. It was a very interesting talk

III. I never knew that a thing existed called branded house and house branding, those were very interesting terms.

IV. I would like to know what the very original coke had in it.

V. I felt that Mr. Foust's presentation on marketing was very cool. It opened my eyes to the field of marketing, and gave me a taste of what it is about. I know feel that marketing is the achilles heel to a company.

VI. Journizzle and Quizy-Wizxy
