Free Money - Extra Credit

* Where will you go?
I would just walk around my apartment complex clubhouse

 * What kind of people will you approach?
I am going to approach students.   

 * What will you say to get the conversation started?
I will say to the people I approach, "Hey, do you like to go out on the weekends?"

 * What is your plan for the conversation?
My plan is to ask people if they like to go out and if they say yes, I would say that I'm giving away a free shot which is the $1 bill in almost every happy hour bar in midtown.  
* Out of five attempts, how many dollar bills do you think you will be able to give away.
I think I would be able to give the $5 away.

*What are your reflections on this exercise?
I think this exercise was great because talking to random people and coming up with a reason to give a dollar is kind of hard. 

* Was giving away a dollar easier or harder than you imagined?
Giving a dollar was easier than I imagined but definitely, it was weird. 

* Were your predictions correct or incorrect? If they were incorrect, why? 
My prediction was correct. The five people I approached said that they like to go out on the weekends, so coming up with an excuse to give them a "free shot" which is the $1 bill was easy. 

* What assumptions did you make about the people you planned to talk to, which were wrong?
I think that my assumptions were correct. I really liked this social experiment exercise because it made me think what my strategy could be in order to give randomly $1 away.

21A – Reading Reflection No. 2

Inbound Marketing by Brian Halligan *What was the general theme or argument of the book? The general theme was that marketing is not always about making people see at your business name. The theme was that outbound marketing is considered past. The new way to apply marketing is inbound because that is the best way to move forward. Finding essential information about a product, increases the chances to buy the product. * How did the book, in your opinion, connect with and enhance what you are learning in ENT 3003? The book definitely was very informative on how to conduct marketing in a business. I have learned that inbound marketing is better, and also that i have to stay away from outbound marketing. It definitely changed my idea on what i think of marketing and gave me a lot of knowledge in my entrepreneurial learning experience. * If you had to design an exercise for this class, based on the book you read, what would the exercise involve? The exer...

25A – What’s Next?

Existing Market: 1) I have a lot of ideas and strategies on how to get my application to succeed. First of all, i would need to contact big companies that would like to be part of the app as a marketing feature. For that part, i will have to use my network resource. After getting big companies or big brands in the app, the rest will be marketing the application itself. People would love an application that has many services and needs in just one app. 2) * Matteo, he is 20 years old from the University of Florida. I interviewed Mateo and told him about my business idea and all the goals I have for the business as a whole. He agreed that the next step would be contacting potential brands to join the app idea as a feature. * Jessica, she is 21 years old and she is also a student at the University of Florida. After a good conversation about my business idea with her, she said that the next step would be to start a marketing plan for the app on campus. * Hjalmar, he is 21 years ...
