Marketing Reflections Mastery Journal Part Duce

Hello Everyone,

Some of us, if not all, are at the final classes of this course. There are some that are still navigating their way to punching their own clocks at their own job, and there are some that are already living the 'American Dream' for better or for worse. We all have come here for the main facet of running our own business as the ultimate goal. In return, we learn ourselves in being creative and with that, become better workers for ourselves and for the people we are surrounded by.

What I have learned in the final months has been nothing short of invaluable. From executive leadership skills involving leadership presentation, BLOG creations and personal branding of your business interests, to negotiation and deal-making getting deep with research case studying, I have learned a lot as to getting knowledge of the behind the scenes of how a great operation functions.

What I am looking forward to in this class is to get a more refined and concrete understanding as to how I need to make the proper tools for use of social media and home websites. Engineering the best ways to use Twitter and YouTube in ways that are the most conducive for my business. Just as my former Algebra teacher use to say, You want to separate the wheat from the chaff. (Mr. Harold circa. 1992) Just as Samsung used analytics to take a bit out of Apple’smarket share using social media numbers, Jammin Products Inc. wants to use the good and the bad to create better if not the best. Kim Garst said, “Before you speak, listen. Before you write, think. Before you spend, earn. Before you invest, investigate. Before you criticize, wait. One of the top 50 women of power in influence for social media in 2014, she embodies the will and grit to help shape the ecommerce connection to the consumer.


What has been the driving force for ideas especially in the security department creation would go to Apple with its ability to hold the world captive until they release the official information to the public. The rejuvenation and birth of the NCAA college football competition with the NCAA College Football Playoffs, the layout of how companies like Givenchy, Marvelous Designer, Versace, Relativity Media, the New Yorker, New York Times, Bing, Nike, Reebok, NBAStore, Jared jewelry, Cadillac, Nissan USA, The Divergent, Fast and Furious, Transformers and Lord of the Rings/The Hobbit websites and all of their social media sites. The creativity of how all of the world-class companies are what I wish to have my company web presence shown. I am in the process of crafting my website & BLOGQastand become a very much different sports fashion/graphics company in which the likes the world has never seen.  Stay tuned.

Disney's Creators and the World of Tomorrow

Hello Everyone,

Todays topic delves into two of the biggest announcements involving the Disney Company. Back in November 26, 2014, CEO Bob Iger and some of the best heads of technology and creativity of Disney Company got together to collaborate on ideas for storytelling on mobile devices. Jimmy Pitaro would be the brainparent of the Disney Infinity series, would be brought to the iPhone iOS.

ESPN would also join in on the action with a new design for the ESPN app. John Kosner Exec. VP.ESPN and Ryan Spoon, Senior VP of Digital Product Management, ESPN outlined the cross creation of the new app as it would combine everything from the ESPN website, the SportsCenter app and the mobile ESPN website would all be under one app.

The heads of Disney/ABC, Albert Cheng VP and chief producer, Digital Media, Jame Voris, Senior VP and chief of technology at Walt Disney Studios, Ryan Lissack, chief technology officer at Maker Studios, Andrew Sugerman, executive vice president, Disney Publishing Worldwide collaborative with Walt Disney Parks & Resorts all work in conjunction to make all of the ideas work when it comes to the Infinity gaming experience with the MagicBands and all of the connections of the images and mapping to make the real world and the imaginary world come together.

Also this week, Disney donated $1 Million to the United Negro College Fund to start a movement to help invest in the young graduates and aspiring students to get into the world of entertainment.The Walt Disney Company UNCF Corporate Scholars Program expands their academic training into practical experiences, to create a diverse pipeline of college educated professionals poised to assume fulfilling careers in the entertainment industry.” (Momdjian, C. para.#4) Opportunities like this help to get fresh ideas and personalities into the areas like ESPN, ABC and Marvel.




This is a great time to be in the industry with the capacities of how technology and fun are married up. The ability to work with items that not only are becoming a reality, it closes the gap of the future we see in the movies and tv shows with items like Microsofts HoloLens. Creating a world where the real and the virtual coexist is where the industry is going.
