I came with this question because my Fiancé works with a well-known company in Santa Monica. This company is called “Victory Furniture.” This company from what I seen in person and from what my fiancé has told me, can be in great demand with the right season, but it also has its down side when the season is bad. Which I believe every company faces at some point. The main basis of this company is outside furniture. It was established in 1945, in the State of California. A third generation own company. The store symbolizes the hope and optimism felt by Americans in the post-WWII boom. The store’s name commemorates the sacrifices and glory of a growing nation – and to this day serves to reflect the commitment invested by three generations of family to build and maintain the American dream. The Safran family has created a successful furniture business from its beginnings in a modest, storefront location in West Los Angeles. The family team now operates two dynamic showrooms in Santa Monica and Irvine. Their showcase varies in the luxurious furniture and accessories from a wide range of designs and taste. Although each generation has brought its own talents to the various aspects of the retail environment, through the years a constant has remained, Victory Furniture carries the widest selection, offers the fairest prices, and provides the finest customer service. Victory Furniture pushes its best to provide is their finest customer service, and as a result enjoys the gift of a

In order to truly comprehend the role of PR in the fashion industry it is essential for us to first have a deep understanding of what Public Relations actually means and how it is applied to modern society. As mentioned before, relationships are not automatic or effortless, they have to be planned and sustained.

This is done through different management strategies such as media control, press releases, promotion, and

Although I enjoyed my time with Classic City Cotton and was exposed to many positive methods and characteristics, I did see some things that I would change or pursue in a different manner. I understand that as a small company, they do not have the amount of capital readily available to implement complex techniques, however, there are some things I find important that Classic City Cotton seemed to lack. Their management of inventory did not meet my standards and they seemed to have limited supply chain management. Prior to receiving a purchase order, the company had already bought the materials to produce seven finalized pieces of each style offered. Acquiring that much inventory prior to having a buyer is a bold strategy and one that limits your free cash flow and bank account holdings; rather than having more money in the bank, ready to spend or earning interest, they had seven pieces of product. If I were an executive of a company of this size, struggling for capital and free cash, I would implement an inventory system that would allow me to fulfill orders as they were received. Although this method would cost more per order and drive margins down per unit, it would alternatively allow the company to have more cash available, earn interest, and earn a higher credit score because bills could easily be paid. This would be an easy solution to the problem I saw, and would not have much down side, especially during the growing period for the

We decided to do our project on Under Armour Inc., an American manufacturer of footwear, sports and casual apparel. We chose Under Armour because they have been a fluctuating company that seemed to be on the rise less than 3 years ago, but inversely has been in a steady decline. There have been numerous stories in the news about their questionable business strategy. Whether it is political endorsements, insufficient profit margins or their declining stock price, Under Armour is an excellent example of a company that could be in a more favorable situation if better strategic moves were made by the leading management. We believe that we will be able to analyze Under Armour’s short history and provide the best course of action.

While Marketing is more aimed towards pushing demand of a new product, Public Relations focuses on managing and sustaining the good reputation of the company to the public and media and Public relation agents are normally tasked with writing press releases, speak concerning and for their organisation at public forums and informing them of their organisation’s news, contacting media professionals, taking clippings from print publications, writing in-house magazines and newsletters and keeping records of when their organisation is mentioned in the press.
