Marketing Information Management

We are now studying Market Information Management. This is simply getting info from your customers so they can help you make better buisness decisions. A focus group is a group of people that go out and get opinions on what the customers like. Today in class we had three rows of cups with three different sodas. We didnt know what soda was in which cup so we tasted them and tried to guess. We also did a questionaire on which soda we liked the best, how was the flavor, etc.. Then she revealed which sodas they were. I ended up liking the soda that was a knock off brand of coke. We also got crackers to. This video the link below describes how to Market information Manage your company. What helps you benifit you and your customers.
How to know when you benefit or are making a profit from them.

A Good Distribution Plan.......


Today in class we learned about distribution. Distribution is when you have a product and have to get from one place to another. Each team had to move their salt and water from one cup on one side of the room to another cup on the other side of the room. But the thing was that the only equipment we had was a spoon, napkin and a straw. Also we had to think of a strategy to out do the other people in are class. We took the spoon and shovled out the salt and put it into the cup shape napkin. Then i took the straw and put it in the water and put my finger on the end to hold it. But that was taking way too long so i just got a mouth full and took it to the other cup. I think are strategy was good its just we could've moved a little faster. Cause once you have a good strategy then speed is the key. A good distribution plan can help a buisness significantly because you can distribute faster than your top competitors. Also the faster you move your product the more sales and profit you make.
