Blog #1

In this course I would like to improve some of my skills, for example talking in front of a group of people as well as being able to be comfortable while being in front of people. I would also like to be able to properly market a product to someone, using the right colours and being able to present it thoroughly. I think the three most important things you can do in this program is show up to class and pay attention, always put your best effort into the work that you are doing while handing things in on time and finally I think to ask questions so that you are able to understand what is to be done in class so that you can do it properly. The most important thing I have learned in the past two weeks have been to make sure that you are being specific with your target audience, instead of  saying "seniors" state an age group, for example, 65 and up. I think that this is important because many people have different thoughts of how old a senior is which could make it hard to target a certain age group if you don't specify their actual age.

Product & Brands What is your favourite brand? Why? My favourite brand is Lululemon due to the quality of their clothing. In my opinion their leggings are one of their best products. They are made of 86% nylon and 14% lycra (Luon). Luon has been tade marked by Lululemon since it is was their pants as well as some of their other products are made of. Their fabric is already preshrunk, they are stretchy as well as warm. They are also great for working out because they absorb sweat but are also great for everyday wear. Lululemon products are on the more expensive side but you are paying for what you get and the quality of their products are amazing.

When I am purchasing leggings from Lululemon I don't often worry about the price too much just because I already know that all of their products are such good quality that you are paying for what you are getting. Having a pricing strategy for your company is very important because it will be able to let your customers know if you have a higher price range or a lower price range. In chapter 9 I learned that you really need to focus on your company having a price range because if customers are coming into your store with maybe a lower income and your products are selling at a higher price range then your store might not be the right one for them. If they are coming into your store and not having a clue whether you are selling clothing for $100 opposed to $20 you might need to consider having a different marketing strategy or promoting strategy to be able to te

Marketing Communications 1) How does marketing communications contribute to building a successful brand? 2) How does what you learned this week connect with other courses or other experiences in your life? 1)Marketing communications contribute to building a successful brand by advertising, direct marketing, and personal selling. When advertising it is helping your company become known. Direct marketing will help get right to your target market and will make it clear for an immediate response. Finally personal selling is will allow you to be more personal with your buyers and have a connection. This will help due to the fact that most people will be more brand loyal if they have a personal connection with the people they are buying from.  2)This week I learned how to properly communicate with my peers, teachers and customers at work.  I also learned that being more personal with customers will help you make them more brand loyal because they will have a good connection with y
