ASHLEY’S POST:
In the video "First World Problems" she mentions how people
use hashtags and think that they are stating problems, when they
really aren't problems. How social media or wifi could possibly
be the problem in the world. Their is certain social media sites
that are causing problems with all different situations, and all
different ages of individuals. The growth of " hashtag first
world problems" has been easily foreseen. There is hashtag
presence, hashtag speech, hashtag topic, and many more to
make the hashtag promise. This vide gives people a better
outlook that their is more going on in the world than just social
media.
In the video "How Guinea Pigs Help Autistic Children" I feel
like this is a great way to help the individuals take care of
something. This is a way to keep them calm in certain daily
struggles that they might be facing. Having difficulties with
socializing and communication is hard enough, and as
mentioned the guinea pig is a calming solution. This could
definitely be a way to get the individual involved in a routine.
Where they can use daily life skills to help build

4. communication skills. Letting the individual choose an activity,
sport, or taking car of an animal allows them to be open in their
own ways. I have personally worked with autistic individuals.
In the begging I read their care plans that way I get to know
them, their interests, and their goals that they would like to
achieve one day. Then I will go above and beyond to hel p them
achieve and reach they goals. These individuals do not like
change, they prefer a consistent schedule and daily routine.
Giving them their space and having good body mechanics while
communicating to each other is definitely key point. Having eye
contact makes them feel like you are listening to then and are
paying attention to what they have to say. Engaging them into a
new change definitely has to be a smooth change and nothing
rational. Also I treat others how I would like to be treated.
When speaking make sure that you use a calm voice, no loud
noises, or different transitions happening without a smooth
transition. Honestly try not doing this, this could cause triggers
in the situation that is occurring.

ANTHONY’S POST:
Hello Everyone,
Mohammad new bakery business can be a profitable business
with the right plan. Whatever the bakery is delivering, from
cookies to donuts and coffee, has to be fit for the purpose to the
customers. The pastries need to be hot and fresh and looks
good. The items need to be available as the customers need
them, and provide the right goods to meet customers demand. A
bakery should be in an area where there is plenty of morning
traffic, for most customers will get coffee and donuts on their
way to work. The bakery needs to be opened on time and ready
to serve customers. Some customers will be focused on the
price, while other customers will be focused on fast service.
Also, some customers will focus on the quality of the pastries
through personal experience or word of mouth. Convincing
customers that what you have for sale will deliver that value.
Marketing is about communicating the strategy and value
proposition to a customer in a way that will make them want to
buy from you.
KAITLYN’S POST:
Mohammad’s business has a lot of potential. It is great that he
has invested so much time in the product which are the cookies
but for his business to grow, he needs to invest time in other
areas as well. Placing his store on the main street of his town or
another is a great idea because that’s a prime location. There’s
so much traffic being driven into a main street in a town and
many people make their way to their town’s main streets daily.
Many towns like to have festivals and events on their main
street that highlight small businesses in the area, and he would
have the opportunity to integrate his business with the people of

6. his town. Having a business on main street would be more
expensive in his town because as I mentioned, there’s a lot of
traffic but he would make that money back in his revenue.
People are drawn to deals that they can get their money’s worth.
An example, I used to work at a bagel store where after 3, a
dozen bagels was 4.99. We would do this before closing because
we needed to get rid of excess bagels while also finding a way
to make a profit off them. A similar plan would work very well
for Mohammed. An hour or two before close, making cookies
half off or doing a dozen cookies half off would drive a lot of
people into the store, making profit and clearing up the days
inventory. Social media is our biggest tool in today’s age of
marketing. Setting up socials for his store and creating a buzz
online will help him cultivate a following that wants to support
his business. Connecting with his towns local media is a great
way to establish a presence in the town and getting his name out
there.
NATORIA’S POST:
I would advice him that his bakery product need to be able to
clearly define what it is he is offering. If he is selling cookies,
are the made from an old fashion are a simple recipe. Once
Mohammed clarified the ins and outs of his product, he'll need
to attach an appropriate price tag to it. Price needs to relate
both cost involved in producing cookies and the perceived value
of the product by his customers. If your cookies etc and price
are out of sync, he is not going to sell as well as he would like.
Place relies on the first two P's, and again relates to the cookies
etc perceived value. Mohammed needs to distribute his cookies
etc through the right channels to reach the right market, with
the right price, at the right time. in order, to promote his bakery
he needs to know how his bakery can be different from the
others. He needs to include a media platforms he will use for
advertising, as well as other forms of promotion such as
personal selling, sales promotion and out of house advertising.
How you promote your cookies etc is crucial to its success.

7. SEYMOUR’S POST:
Even though that Mohammad has this great recipe for a great
cookie and has been making them for his family and friends it
does not matter in the marketing world today. Think about this
for a minute and look at how many cookie companies are out
there. For example, Famous Amous took a lot of planning and
disappointment notes to talk about failure. Mohammad has to
include the 4P's in this grand opening. There is a new shopping
mall which should starts construction in the following months
let's get in on the ground floor. Build a wedsite and prerequisite
the site as a demo with pictures of the products that will be in
the store. Convinced the viewer that your cookie is the best let
them know your product is the purple cow. Research the price
of local cookies vendors in the immediate area and compare to
make your price competitive. When the store is ready for the
grand open we will give out mini samples of all the products on
the menu. Give the store a very unique look with a great drive-
up appeal.
