Listening to Apple

 I chose to research Apple because it is a brand that I support quite a bit. I also found it interesting because there is so much controversy about the company, however over 100 million people in the world own one or more apple products and more than likely use at least one everyday. They have accusations against them for making used products stop working or processing at slower speed right before the release of a new version. Apple ranks second to Samsung in phone companies and has three and a half stars. Their value proposition is 'experience is the product'. 

Kevin's review of custom service among the thousands of other complaints shows they not only have issues with their products but no one to assist when they don't live up to their promises of product quality and value proposition. Khurshid's comments shows my previous claim about new updates ruining phones as new versions of those product come out. The company has tried to shut down all rumors but it is difficult when the claims are backed with facts and real experiences from a wide range of customers. But not all customers are unsatisfied! Sandy is happy with her purchase of her Apple Watch and uses the success to rave about her other apple products that she uses and loves. She also enjoys how all the products sync together and work as a team. I also enjoy this aspect. 

The company has very mixed feelings towards it.

Ford’s U.S. Sales by Sierra

      The article that I chose to explore and analyze was a piece called  Ford’s U.S. Sales Increase 32% in June, Outpacing Broader Industry  that is shown in the business portion of the Wall Street Journal. The article can be found at https://www.wsj.com/articles/fords-u-s-sales-increase-32-in-june-outpacing-broader-industry-11657034435 I picked this article because my family has always looked down upon Fords as they are unreliable in their experience. My next car is going to be a truck and will have to be able to pull horse trailers and such. I have looked into getting a Ford 250 and love the Ford Raptors and wanted to see if they are improved and more reliable or why sales have increased so much!      The article explains that the company has indeed made  improvements, specifically to their SUVS, and their trucks! But the company hasn't always been improving. Sales were down at the beginning of this year and were very low. Within the...

 Hi! My name is Sierra, and I am from Sacramento, California. I am a business management major and I hope to minor in equine marketing but need to do some more research on it! I enrolled in this class because in my business class last year I got the opportunity to be the CEO of my own micro business, where the school provided money for my business team to order t-shirts, and from there we all created some designs and printed and sold the shirts! This is where I really found my love for marketing and sales and am excited to take a course that focuses on that. I spent my first year out of high school working various jobs, I really enjoyed being a cashier and building relationships with regular customers. I also had the opportunity to work at a barn where I got to exercise horses and do barn chores, where I learned so much about horses! I have been riding since I was 9 and am super passionate about it, and hope to make a career out of it. For now, I get to be on the Oregon State eques...
