Blog 19: Independent Component 2

LITERAL:
 
(a) I, Gabriela Murillo, affirm that I completed my independent component which represents 30 hours of work.

(b) My sources were my mentor, Jose Murillo, and a book called "Hey Whipple, Squeeze This" by Luke Sullivan.

(c) Provided a digital spreadsheet (aka log of the 30 hours).

(d) What I completed over the course of two months was creating a new way to advertise for Brothers Precesion through light-up pens. I first had to order light- up pens (100 pens in total). I created a price list that Brothers Precision provides, then I called printing companies to determine and compare  which one would be affordable to us. Each pen would be $3 with the printed name of the company and everything. So the total cost was around $300 for a set of pens.

INTERPRETIVE:

 

This independent component helped me answer my EQ in a variety of ways. It taught me a new creative way to advertise for a company. So far, the clients that we've passed them out to really love them and that as an advertiser is an achievement. It also taught me how hard it is to make a business deal happen, there were many speed bumps throughout the way, with the printing and pen companies but I was able to deal with it and make a deal concrete like a "professional." The experience was challenging but yet fun, and through the stressful times my mentor helped me focus to through the difficult situations.

Literal

a.) I, Gabriela Murillo affirm that I completed my independent component which represent 30 hours of work.

c.) Spreadsheet posted.

Applied

The 30 hours helped me learn a lot more of the resposibility that an advertising manager has when most of the people are depending on you. My mentor gave me an assignment to find an affordable new way to advertise the company. And I did my research and suggested new business cards that has the basic information of the company printed. So far we are waiting for the budget to be at a perfect mark then we will pay the money orders. My mentor and I are working on new ideas that will be coming for the company.
