Week 11 EOC: What I learned at the Well

Coming into this class, I expected to learn about marketing and that is basically it. I felt like it would take it to the next level from our basic marketing class last quarter, and we would learn more about the entertainment side. I did not know we would learn it the way we did. That is the one thing I hadn't prepared myself for. I believe there would be a lot of lectures and a project or two to go along with the final project, but instead we watched a lot of movies and didn't have any projects. While I do think we may have watched too many movies, I do see what they did for me. I remember one movie that showed me how important it is to make connections, and I need to do everything I can to make them. Two more showed me different things a manager did, but how they would do everything they possibly could to achieve their goal; be as personally successful as possible. The class taught me in ways I did not think I could learn in, and now I have a more open mind about what I'm actually going to need to do in order to be more successful then anybody thinks I will be. I learned what I wanted to learn in this class, but I did believe you spoke to much over some of the movies. If anything, I would just want to know more about the role of a manager. It is what I'm in this school for, and I wish we would have talked more about exactly what managers are, what they do, how much work they have to do to be successful, etc. Overall, I feel like I got almost everything I wanted out of this class.

Week 10 EOC: The Role of a Promoter

"When an individual has an idea for a new business venture, he or she may set about interesting others in the venture and persuade them to contribute capital to a company to be incorporate for the purpose of carrying on the venture. The individual will then be described as ‘promoter’ of the company." https://www.lawteacher.net/free-law-essays/business-law/role-of-promoters-in-company-establishment-business-law-essay.php A promoter is meant to promote something or someone, to get their name out here and make it known. The promoter is supposed to help make a product successful, no matter what the product is. They get the name known, and they shop the product around places where people need or will like the product. "In the 19th century, when industrial revolution came and companies flourished, the concept of promoter gained substantial importance like no other occupation, as there were no restrictions on advertising immediately to the public, inviting them to take shares in new companies, some promoters took advantage of their position and of public sympathy and hence defrauded the public on large extent." https://www.lawteacher.net/free-law-essays/business-law/role-of-promoters-in-company-establishment-business-law-essay.php. The promoter is extremely important in the success of whatever they are meant to promote. They carry out the necessary investigation to find out whether the formation of a company is possible and profitable. Thereafter, they organize the resources to convert the idea into a reality by forming a company. In this sense, the promoters are the originators of the plan for the formation of a company. https://www.lawteacher.net/free-law-essays/business-law/role-of-promoters-in-company-establishment-business-law-essay.php

Week 10 EOC: It's an Art

If I was in Peter's situation, I would take just enough money to improve my life, and invest the rest of it. I wouldn't invest until I research what I want to invest in, so I know it is a good investment. I would then try to improve the quality of my life with the small amount from the rest. I might use it on a downpayment for a cheap car, or maybe just a small amount of clothes and save it for emergency money. Just what I need to survive while the rest of he money is invested and I'm working my job. I wouldn't change to much about my life, just enough to keep myself happy with the money that i took out. If I was to get a cheap car, it would not be so cheap that it breaks down a lot, but it would not be a high end car. Just good enough to get me from place to place. Also I would buy clothes, because I do not have a lot as it is right now. Maybe four or five pairs of pants/shorts and 4 shirts. The rest would probably go towards food, as my family is big and they need a lot of it. I would remove probably 1/5 of the money for myself, and the other 4/5 would be invested after the proper research.

Week 9 EOC: I'm a little worried about my future

I feel like my future is going to go well for me. I don't have an exact career that I want yet, but I do know what field I want to be involved in. It's not black and white, and there will be many obstacles, but I know I'm motivated enough to make myself keep going. Right now I'm in school, starting up my own life, and preparing myself for the future. I live with my family, and the person I associate with the most is my new puppy, Luna. I'm saving up money, buying a car, and learning to be completely independent so by the time I graduate from Ai I'll be that much more prepared to handle myself and my career. I want to give myself the best chance I can to be successful. Since I love what I'm in school for, and I have a really big drive to be successful, I don't have a doubt I will be successful with my future endeavors. Everything I'm doing with my life right now is to prepare for this. I have a strong drive to be successful, and I want it to much to settle for anything less. My goal is to be happy with my life. I want a career that I love, to be able to support my own loving family, to have supportive friends, and to maintain my happiness for most of my life. So everything I'm doing with my life right now, and everyone that I know right now, is to prepare myself and ensure that I get the future I want.
