Chapter 1

 Chapter 1

I do not have the book yet so I had to work with summaries for this one. What I understand is that chapter 1 gives us a good introduction to what marketing, advertising and even AI are and how they project into the future. It is also interesting to see some overlap with one of my previous classes "Principles of Marketing". A good summary I came across again and again was that you must know your objective with any kind of marketing no matter if it is in the form of ads, emails and texts. One thing the chapter mentioned is AI, and this is where I would like to raise a question.

- Do you believe AI is or can be capable of practicing one-to-one marketing?

The takeaway from the chapter that I believe to be extremely important is the stress one must put on having a clear objective, not derailing from the goal and living by the I fail I learn mentality. It is not easy to become successful in marketing much like many other job fields. But having a plan and looking at statistics and return on income and all these things one most definitely increases the odds of making it in this space. One must have this plan and live out the mission of said company whilst keeping in mind to always be ready to test, evaluate and adjust one's social media and general marketing plan.

Locking In

 Locking In We are finally here, at this point in the semester. The days are getting shorter and the temperatures are dropping and all students are eagerly awaiting the last exam and starting their journey home for Christmas break. I cannot wait for this moment of relief, knowing another semester has come to an end and that I earned my time off. These last 3 weeks move very quickly and before you know it break will be here. Even if it seems too far away at this moment in time. But with all the assignments, final projects and exams all lying in these 3 weeks it is essential to lock in and not slack off. Some deciding factors of grades are made during this time so I advise you and myself to just push through. It will be over soon.     One way to do this if you haven't done so already is to write down all the tasks you have for the rest of our time here. Not only does this give you a better understanding of what and how much time you should invest. If entering this data on a calendar

Stress

 Stress Once again we are in a part of the year where classes get more difficult and the amount of work that needs to be done increases. Besides basketball picking up as we are approaching our first official game this Saturday against Kalamazoo College in Michigan. I have numerous tests and assessments in many of my classes to study for. Therefore this off-day tomorrow will be a huge part of my week. Hopefully, it takes some of the stress off me.      Not going to lie, yes I have been under some stress lately which does not help when having to manage many things at once. But perhaps that is where it comes from. Either way, I need to make sure to utilize my off day and get some things done in an effort to free up the rest of my week. Having more time for the remainder of the week is huge as Saturday is scratched and the entire day will go to the game. This means that I only really get Sunday to do the things I need to do. Some of these are important for my future such as writing a cover

Consistency gets tiring

 Consistency gets tiring I am sure we all had dreams of all sorts when we were little kids. Even though these might have changed since, whatever your goal is you need to make sure that when working towards it you stay consistent. If you do not do so it will become extremely difficult to stay and remain at the top compared to your competitors that are consistent in their work. An example of this could even be these blogging assignments. Think about just how hard it is to stay consistent with these blog posts. It is not easy to post it on different days and stay consistent with delivering quality content.     Another example would be Kobe Bryant. He was arguably one of the three greatest basketball players of all time. But how did he get there? He worked harder than everybody else perfecting his craft. Doing the same drills over and over again. Sounds fatiguing right? Yes, it sure does, but this consistent effort is what made him who he is and got him his jersey retired and got himself c
