Week 12 Part 2

Project Research Activity 
              MeetUp Groups is something great. I learned about this through my brother. He was looking for a way to get some extra French lessons and found MeetUp. It was a great way for people to get together and practice. This can also be super helpful when it comes to networking. If there is a small business group or anything to do with startup clothing lines then that would be a great opportunity to learn and share information. It is a platform for people to "meet up" and help each other or just hang out. Another popular one that I think is a great idea is streaming content but specifically podcasts. This is a great way to talk about your brand or share stuff from a blog or whatever it may be. This might not directly apply to my business but I could meet someone that talks about the foundations of my business like beach life and have them put an ad for me. These are both great forms of networking and simply spreading the word out and reaching people in different ways.

Week 11 Part 1

Newsletters              Newsletter's can be sent weekly, monthly, quarterly, or even twice a year for certain businesses. For my business I think it would be good to have a newsletter sent out twice a month or once every two weeks. One of the posts of that month will be to announce new products. The other posts will be to advertise a big sale that will happen once a month possibly lasting a 3-7 days. On the email involving new products it might also include events occurring in the area or at least an image of a cool place. This is a way to encourage people to buy gear and also to wear and advertise their Shade Apparel for people to see. Everyone loves a good discount so I don't think that will take much information or persuasion. Both these ideas need to be made extremely visually appealing for customers to bite. In addition,  there will be a welcome and birthday email as well. This would be the overall schedule of my businesses newsletters.

Week 3 Part 1

          Sometimes in a consumer and business relationship there can be positive and negative experiences.            First there can be difficulties communicating to a business as a consumer. In my own experience I have been in a couple negative or simply inconvenient situations. One of those involved the process of trying to return something through amazon. I had been trying to buy a good snowboarding jacket from amazon and it's difficult to find the right one because you can't try it on and don't know how it feels. I ended up buying a jacket that was too thin for snow weather. Then ofcourse I decide to return it and use the money refunded to buy another one.  Then I had to fill out a return form and specify why I was returning it. At this point everything was working fine and I set up the jacket to return and returned it expecting to get a refund. Online it said I would get a refund when amazon recieves the jacket. I then recieved a notification saying that Amazon

Week 1

 The blog template I used was chosen for a reason.           One of those reasons is because it involves the color blue and the water. I am in love with both of those aspects. I am a born and raised California girl so anything that resembles the beach is something I am already in love with. Blue also happens to be my favorite color. As the writer of this blog I feel like the template should be helpful insight on what kind of person I am. A lover of the water and an often beach-goer is a big part of my life. In addition to that I enjoy the colors and how it is not too dark or not too bright. It drew my attention in a subtle way rather than maybe blinding the eye immediately with a yellow or pink or something of that nature. The blue and the water is my favorite choice.           The other factor for choosing this blog template is that when people think of the beach most of the time it is a relaxing image. To dive a little deeper, besides being a typical California girl, I look at t
