Have you seen those weird music festival T-shirts that people wear and wonder what someone could possibly want to wear that for? While they’re sometimes meant to catch attention of people so they may want to look up the festival, it also serves as a reminder for many amazing memories for the two or three-day event. For a long time now music has changed people’s lives in many ways. It has brought people to fame and lifted many out of depressions. But, to those who haven’t experienced a festival, or even live music in general, you have been missing out an amazing social experience like no other. From the kings of festivals like Woodstock or Coachella to the lesser known ones like Rock on the Range (Hard rock/metal based) and Day for Night (variety) there are hundreds to pick from. One of my favorites is Carolina Rebellion which takes place right in this state.
My top third archetype that I received was The Destroyer. Before knowing what the destroyer’s characteristics were, I thought it was somewhat frightening to be one because of the title, however, once I learned more about who they are, I realized it was a very relatable archetype. Although their title is, “The Destroyer” their main goal is not to wreck everything, their purpose is to change their lives for the better. They deal with the internal battles that we have within ourselves such as the emotional and spiritual issues. Those who are destroyers fear being powerless and having things out of their control. One experience that displays this archetype was when I had to let go of an unhealthy friendship, an emotional battle that I had to deal
T-Bois has been in the Falgout family since the 1950’s. Over the years it has been home to a crawfish business, an alligator farm and most importantly, this unique group of people. It has been the central meeting venue of this community for many years. T-Bois Blues Festival, the group’s largest event began as a Good Friday celebration in Larose, Louisiana decades ago. These gatherings, while local and community-oriented, drew in hundreds of people in the first years. The focus of this group was to bring together the locals and unite the essences of cajun culture. Over the years, T-Bois has grown exponentially. Starting out as a humble gathering of close friends, T-Bois has transformed into something much more. Every year, people from around the world travel to this swampy southern estate to experience this unique fusion of blues music, cajun food, untamed wilderness and street art that can only be found in
As I pull up to the campus of The University of Alabama with my friend Rick, we get out of the truck. I am filled with excitement as we make our long walk to the stadium. It is a cool and cloudy day. Thousands of people walk beside us dressed in crimson and white as we make our way down University Drive. Off in the distance I can hear the million dollar band
Canada Goose is a successful, fashion trending brand that has caught the eyes of many consumers around the world. The company has gone through two name changes since it was established in 1957. It was first born to the name of Metro Sportswear, in Toronto, Ontario by Sam Tick. “Son-in-law, David Reis, eventually took over the business, building it into a supplier of utilitarian down-filled coats favoured by the public-sector workers who mostly laboured outside” (Kelly, 2014). The company’s name changed to Snow Goose, and it was David’s son, Dani Reiss who later changed the name to Canada Goose in 2000. Dani became the CEO in 2001 and while maintaining all production within Canada, he began expanding internationally (Kelly, 2014). Dani

B. Situation Analysis • Company: TFC is a 24X7 network dedicated solely to fashion.

So, TFC has to
Situation Recap This case analyzes the situation of a company called The Fashion Channel (TFC). This is the first cable TV network to solely deliver fashion information and entertainment 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. To this point, the company has achieved great success by avoiding focus on any one particular segment. This has been done to avoid excluding any viewership and to attract the entire general population with their theme “Fashion for Everyone”. With the current strategy of the network, they have developed a history of steady and constant growth above the industry average. At this time, the company is starting to face a higher degree of competition from other network programs at CNN and Lifetime. What makes TFC different is their fashion programming is all day every day, rather than just an hour or two. Due to the competition, Jared Thomas, CEO, has stated that the company needs to develop a brand strategy to secure TFC as the leader in their market.
SUMMARY: Gucci was founded in 1921 by Guccio Gucci. In 1938, Gucci expanded and a boutique was opened in Rome. Guccio was responsible for designing many of the company's products. In 1947, Gucci introduced the Bamboo handle handbag, which is still a company mainstay. During the 1950s, Gucci also developed the trademark striped webbing, which was derived from the saddle girth, and the suede moccasin with a metal horsebit. The Gucci group really said it all, Tom Ford, creative director and Domenico de sole, president and CEO, stood side by side facing the camera with eyes of steel. These two men had, in the first six months of 1999, been the centerpiece of one of most higly contested hostile takeover battles ever seen on the Europian
