I enjoyed the presentation on non-emergency medical transportation. I think this is a great idea for the elderly instead of nursing homes. They also included graphs showing the statistics in this industry #RHUB290
Ponzi financial surprised me with the importance and power of networking. They mention that 86% of job postings are hired through networking which means it is so much harder for minorities to compete. #RHUB290
Yerkich Pub stands out to me because they did a great job explaining their problems and coming up with solutions to them. I also like the ideas about them saying they do not want to be a typical Irish pub and make it more diverse and unique. #RHUB290
@YSyamansoori Hi Yad, I agree that the audience isn't there to judge you. Having this mindset will help you better deliver the presentation without worrying that the audience will criticize you and be confident in your words. #RHUB290
After Tuesday's class, I learned about the layout of a report. At the front, we should have a title page, executive summary, and table of contents. Each should be one page. The conclusion is where we wrap up our findings. #RHUB290
After watching the Ted Talk, I learned that our Powerpoint should be clear and concise regarding the structure and information presented. We also have to control our slides, spending around 2-3 minutes per slide to create a balance among the slides. #RHUB290
@TylerOnishi1 I totally agree with the step to create an effective business report. If we follow all the steps, the report will be more coherent, cohesive, professional, and, effective. #RHUB290
After Tuesday's class, I learn that we will need to adjust our context based on the audience we are writing to. Imagining yourself being the audience will help you reach the right target audience. #RHUB290
I think writing a report is about analyzing ideas in detail. The information included in the document should be accurate, relevant, and informative to its readers. When reading a report, readers wouldn't have to sift through paragraphs of filler content. #RHUB290
I like the quote " consumers are torn between a curiosity about new things and a fear of anything new" because this can apply to any product. For example, people want to buy a new phone because it has more features and updates but in general, it is still a phone. #RHUB290
@dhsd28 I agree with you David that the 5 Ws will also help us determine the uniqueness of our products among the competitor and also help us organize the information we put on our website. #RHUB290
The website should be designed to fulfill the following adjectives: simple, familiar, intuitive, clean, and accessible. We want the website to be straightforward and easily access by anyone. #RHUB290
https://t.co/Hm1YvA7fi4 is an example of a nameplate service where you can build your own personal online brand. It is simple to use and also free. You upload one photograph as your webpage's background, fill out all the information that is needed to create a website #RHUB290
@adamlev2202 I totally agree with you Adam. Doing market research will determine the potential of the products or services and see whether they might fit demands of the potential customers #RHUB290
I learned that in order to start a business we have to do market research about it first. The first thing to look for will be the audience, for example, who is our targeted customers. Next thing is to determine whether the products or services of the company are unique #RHUB290
There are 2 different types of business information which is primary and secondary research. Primary research is simply conducting a survey, interview, or group. Secondary market research refers to consumers, industry, and company. #RHUB290
@earl_sdsu I totally agree with you about considering the right audience. Knowing the right audience will give us a clear sense of who are we writing to and how to format the writing correctly. It will also help us to decide what information to include in the writing. #RHUB290
After the class on Tuesday, I learned that there different approaches on writing bad news. The recommendation for this is to give the person one good reason rather than several reasons. It is understandable that no one wants to hear the bad news many times. #RHUB290
After reading these articles, I learned that either we state the bad news right away or soften it by following up with an explanation. A way to organize bad news is through the BEBE formula- Buffer, Explanation, and Bad News, Exit. #RHUB290
@JacobSh06862541 I agree with what you said about company letterhead. By looking at the letter, we can somewhat tell whether a company is professional in a certain way. In the conclusion, a call to action is needed because we want to let them know what we are going to do next. #RHUB290
