Week 7--MBA 6101--Coming to an end

-

 

As the class is coming to a close, I shared my ad campaign with friends as well as my blog and received good feedback, they were surprised at how cheap it was to put an ad on google! They also said that it was impressive that for that little price and the ease of things what a good idea it would be for them to do the same as some of them have small businesses/do hair and make up on the side of their full time job.



I was never really interested in marketing before this class, I would just watch commercials, ads, etc. and go about my day but the profound impact it actually has is astounding to me now! It is the bread and butter of some companies, being able to pull people in in the masses could quite literally change the life of a small business owner.

It is amazing how you don't realize the impact something could have until you immerse yourself in it or take the time to learn about it. Although I don't think I want a career in marketing because I'm not too artsy I am glad I have gained the skills and know enough about it to possibly help make a difference in the lives of my friends, I definitely wouldn't mind helping build a website or put up a few ads and hey maybe even get compensated for my time and effort!



This class has really helped me to understand how important marketing is and the use of AI in marketing and just everyday life, without this class I don't think I would have known much about AI and how it can help especially chat GPT, that was super cool to me and can prove to be extremely helpful.

Week 1 - MBA 6101 –ChatGPT vs Google search

-

  With the advancement of AI, I didn’t even think that there would be something like ChatGPT, why, I have no idea. Before this class I was unaware of ChatGPT, I typically always used google to find the answers to any burning questions I had. I asked both google and Chat GPT the same question and got varying answers, of course but in this instance asking both which major issue the city of Atlanta should address ChatGPT gave a very easy answer whereas google I have to search articles which is what I am used to doing. I think it could be used a good tool and a good starting point and can be used to generate ideas and then research on them further.   Being my first-time hearing about and exploring this tool, I found it to be useful and I was surprised at how fast the bot responded to my inquiries. I think I will use this tool again in the future, but I will also ask more specific questions and see what the responses are like. It is quite enjoyable to have sure a vast array of ...

Week 1 - MBA 6101 – The Impact and implications of AI

  While reading chapter 1 of Surfing the Tsunami and reading about robots my first thought was the cartoon the Jetsons, where they had Rosie the robot to help around the house and their flying cars. Although we don’t have the flying cars…yet we do have “robots” to help with things around the house. I for one am grateful to have my Roomba so that I don’t have to vacuum my own floors anymore. It makes it easier to spend time doing other things knowing that, that specific chore will be taken care of.   I can still remember when computers were these big bulky machines, but they were all the rage, with AOL and dial up internet then the shift to more sleek modern looking computers connected to Wi-Fi. It makes me think of how far we have come and the concern of the year 2000, where everyone thought, the computers would interpret 00 as 1900 instead of 2000 but look how far we have come.   In today’s world most things have been more geared toward AI and automation. For exa...

Week 8-MBA 6101-Listening to the consumer

  The chapter on research and consumer feedback in week 8 of Guerilla Marketing covers a very important step in marketing that, in the end, will determine if a product or business is successful. Listening to consumers can be paramount in ones success, the consumer will let you know what they want and you can listen to the masses or try and change a good thing which sometimes may have a very negative affect. A good example they used was when Coca Cola introduces new coke without getting feed back from they consumers first and saw it fail, I believe the word the marking officer used was miserably. They say this after they had already introduced it and had to pull the plug, go back, and get consumer feedback which they used and began to make a profit again. What that tells me if that you can just assume you know your market, you actually had to talk to the consumers to see what it is they may or may not want before making such a big move and hoping that it works. In marketing the ...
