If I was a tourist agent I would be pitching a trip to Mexico, Hawaii or California, for the people the enjoy the warm weather and Toronto, Edmonton (if not working in Calgary) for people that like the cold weather during their holidays. There is a link for a trip to California. Flight cost and info here. You should take this trip because the weather is beautiful and it would be so relaxing to get away from the cold Calgary weather. Think of it, you don't have to shovel the snow or scrape the ice off your car window.

If I was a manager of a store and had an employee that is constantly late for work and is unmotivated, I would first talk to him or her and tell them how I feel about them being late for work and not putting their best effort into it. If that doesn't help with the problem then I would most likely fire that worker and hire someone that is determined come and work. The leadership style that I would use is Democratic Leadership.

Customer service is important because it helps the customer with their problems easily. It is also important because if there is no customer service, it would make the company look bad if they don't help the customers out. When the company looks bad, there wont be anymore business which doesn't help them make money at all.

What he is doing is that he is comparing physics with business by using newton's law. Like he said, the more the company is massive, the more massive is a company and the more baggage so it takes more force to move. So basically what he is saying is that it is very difficult to reposition a brand if it is something really big like we could per example Nike, Apple or Microsoft. But a company that is small like per example SuperStruct, then of course it would be much easier to start new because not a lot of people know about it.

 The four P's is a term that you hear all the time when you do business. So basically the 4's stand for four words which you may or may not heard of it before. So pricing, product, place and promotion are the four words that are represented by by 4 P's. AIDA is an acronym that stand for Attention, Interest, Desire and Action. Those steps are very important especially when you have to run a business or you have to make sell. No my poster is not ready to be marked yet I still need to work on it.

The category that I think would make the most money is the food category, because most people would like a snack during the day, and the school store could sell items that are in the vending machines, but for a lower price that way more people could buy from them. Most items already are being sold for a pretty low price. This is a smart way to make money fast, because people would like to buy a snack that doesn't cost much at all.

- I could say that the proceeds will go to children that are not able to receive a present this year, due to money problems.
-Tell them that this sweater would bring a smile to anyones face.
-I could get a celebrity to be in a commercial wearing the sweater.
-I would use repetition like: the word holiday.
