Reading Adam Braun’s book, “The Promise of a Pencil”, did not make much of an impact on me. However, I can relate to a few a experiences, such as working hard and learning the importance of giving back to the community. This book was definitely brought up multiple times in my class and it has given me a chance to deeply gather my thoughts about this writing. Throughout the class, we talked about finding your passion and purpose. We have made quite of bit connections with the book. Throughout the story, there were a few lessons that were obvious. Such as the importance of education, following your intuition, and learn from your mistakes.

Cracker Jack is one of the most recognized consumer food brands in the United States. The brand possesses virtually universal awareness, holding steady at 97 percent among persons between the ages of 15 and 60. It also has an enviable 95 percent brand name awareness among heavy users of caramel popcorn. In spite of this gold mine, it is still regarded as traditional, stale, old fashioned, a product from a bygone era and less hip and less contemporary than its major rival, Crunch ‘n Munch. To add to this dilemma, the product diversification strategy that led to the development of several other versions such as Cracker Jack Fat Free, Butter Toffee, and Nutty Deluxe, in the hopes of

Unwind was a book filled with sass, adventure, and daring escapes. I give it a four point five stars out of five. The character development was phenomenal and the main female protagonist was great without being too annoying. But the ending, I feel, was a flop. It was building up to this huge climax and it just didn’t feel that exciting when it happened. Other than the ending being a flop this was a great book and I feel that more people should read Neil Shusterman’s books because his books are unique from anything else in the YA scene and they will just pull you in from the first sentence. I think that dystopian has become a very worn out genre in YA literature but this doesn’t feel like dystopian it feels like a great huge pile of awesomeness

I have found that becoming aware of Adam Braun and his organization, “Pencils of Promise” has allowed me to understand myself as a person more deeply. I have always loved reading about amazing people, and so I have enjoyed reading and learning more about Adam Braun’s life over this summer. I feel that it has improved my ability to understand more about the world and myself. There was one part in his book, “The Promise of a Pencil” that I felt very strongly about. That one component has already and will continue to make an impact on how I see the world and my everyday life.

The Pillsbury Cookie Challenge is a case study written by Natalie Mauro under the supervision of Professor Allison Johnson. The case study creates an open discussion about what the marketing manager of the refrigerated baked goods category for Canada General Mills should do to revive his products. Ivan Guillen, the marketing manager, was faced with tough challenges. He was initially “…faced with the challenge of developing a strategy that would lead to improved business performance on his category” (Johnson and Mauro, p.1, 2011). To clarify, Guillen’s category is refrigerated baked goods (RBG), which means, this category is his marketing responsibility. The issue here is that “RBG was GMCC’s fourth largest category, and its performance over the past two years had been less than stellar” (Johnson and Mauro, p.1, 2011). It is important to note that GMCC stands for General Mills Canada Corporation. Pillsbury has enjoyed majority market share in the RBG category in Canada, however, recently, the market was experiencing only moderate growth. Guillen was disappointed that their goal of 5%-7% market growth was not being achieved mainly in the refrigerated cookie dough segment. To be exact, their volume growth for two years was flat and they were having difficulty reaching new households. There was a shift among consumer’s purchases, which Guillen was challenged to figure out why.

The mentality of our nation as a whole has always remained determined, kept a sense of community, and stays united through periods of immense grief. In my novel, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close by Jonathan Saffron Foer, A journey through a young boys, Oscars, struggle with grieving the loss of his father takes place. This is something many Americans are able to relate to; as the novel is that just after the terrorist attacks of 9/11/2001. Just like Oscar, for Americans,optimism can seem out of reach, but perseverance allows us to rise above tragedy. As Oscar and others grow and overcome their sadness, which has caused them to grow silent, while "the silence overtook (them) like a cancer". It is clear that our society might fall to a low,

The Canadian Pillsbury ready-baked goods cookie line is experiencing disappointing performance, and the marketing manager at General Mills Canada Corporation is under pressure to make strategic decisions that will help turn around the segment. The marketing manager has engaged the help of the consumer insights team to conduct market research studies that will shed light on consumers and their attitudes, behaviours, and preferences towards the product.

High levels of competition are increasable augmenting in the foodservice market. I order for General Mills to survive that intensive competition; the company would need to invest funds in Research and Development department (R&D). The R&D team, will periodically scan the environment to capture new trends and preferences in food products, investigate what the competition is doing, find new market segments, and develop easy, cheaper, and simple ways to manufacture new and existing products. This project will take a year to develop with quarterly investment of funds.

Introduction and Problem Statement General Mills Canada Corporation is a marketing company that has released several successful products to the Canadian market since 1954. The company produces and markets iconic food products in more than 100 countries, brands such as Betty Crocker, Green Giant, Progresso, Cheerios and Pillsbury.

GMCC had to discover the needs and wants in the Canadian baking market.

The cart will be supplied with local food from our local farms and local bakers ensuring we have the best products to sell. It is our intention to ensure our food is the freshest by using local farm to market food as well as keeping the prices low. Making money is why we are in business. For us to make money it will be necessary to have repeat customers which will keep our business thriving. Using social media will let our customers know where we are on a given day. Social media works both ways, our customers can contact us on social media such as facebook to find out where we might be over a weekend. This will help us reach the goals of repeat business in the Portland/Vancouver area. We are hoping by the use of social media, using farm fresh produce for our food and keeping our prices at a reasonable rate that our customers will come back to us time and time again to enjoy delicious, healthy, and freshly made vegetarian and vegan food that customers will enjoy and seek out at local events in the area.

The following marketing plan forms the basis for the introduction of an innovative new product by Snyder’s-Lance Inc. This analysis allows me to outline the best strategies to follow for the achievement of the company’s strategic goals. “Pretzel Abobodas” will be marketed as a unique flavored pretzel that targets the Hispanic consumer, while striving to reinforce the company’s focus on wanting to penetrate the Hispanic market. The marketing strategies will hopefully enable our company to

One of the main issues that I have noticed about my idea of making All-In-One product is the dropping sales of consumption of cereals. As the data shows the consumption of cereal has dropped about 5-7 percent these past couple of years (Trafecante, 2016). However, the reason is not the reducing number of people who eat breakfast, but the increasing number of variety of breakfast meal in the stores, which makes many people to switch to another type of breakfast food. As it mentioned in the New York Times article many companies, such as Kellogg, General Mills and Post, concerned about the reducing trend of sales are trying new innovative ways to stop the downward trend (Melisa, 2014). Since the half of the cereal consumers are adults they try to make the new products nostalgic to influence adults’ choices of breakfast type. Another reason that many cereal companies believe is the reason of the lowered consumption of cereal is the “laziness” of people, because as the article states the 40 percent of teenagers consider eating cereal on breakfast is inconvenient because they have to clean-up afterwards, and they prefer to eat something that will not take much of their time (Mitchell, 2016). Therefore many consumers switch from eating cereal to another breakfast not because they don’t like it anymore but because it takes longer time to make it and clean-up. Thus, when my All-In-One product get introduced in the market, we will have a
