Week 9: food adventure
One day in the cold strong winds of Europe Phileas Fogg went
off course due to the winds. He landed in France his balloon badly damaged and
his body banged up from the crash. He went to see the farmer of the land where he
had crashed. Luckily the famer said, I can fix your balloon in exchange for
some help around the land. The next morning he awoke to the sound of a tractor
as he made his way down stairs to see the farmer about the help he needed. The
farmer sent him to pick up some hay from the local supply store. On his way to
the supply store a crowed of rude bikers passed him causing all sorts of mayhem.
Arriving at the store he noticed the bikers had parked at the salon across the street and were causing trouble. As he was paying for the farmers supplies the group of bikers came in the store looking for parts and food, while harassing the employees and customers. That was when the Phileas Fogg decided to stand up the people he told the gang to back of and to quit bugging the poor town’s folk. They the leader of the group said yea what are you going to do about it. That was when Fogg sprang into action and started a fight the brawl lasted several minuet’s. once the dust cleared the only man standing was Fogg himself the townsfolks applauded him for he had ran out the vermin that were praying on the small town. Once he had made it to the farm, he stored the hay the farmer invited him to go inside and enjoy a delicious snack to relax. The farmer gave him a croissant filled with cheese he ate it and said this snack is amazing. the next day as he was getting ready to leave the farmer gave him a parting gift on box of croissants filled with cheese and the family recipe to it.
Week 9: 3 great mission statements
Andrews Mission Statement: "Our company strives to unify the world through showcasing international foods and making them accessible for all to enjoy. All humans must eat and therefore, food is a perfect platform for sharing traditions of other cultures amongst each other. By using the finest product and ingredients, we help our customers travel far distances at their own convenience."
I like Andrews mission statement, because is shows that his mission statement cares about about their customers. As well as showing that he cares about feeding all of humanity.
Rachelle's mission statement was great as well due to the fact that it explained in detail of what her company is about.
mayras mission statement
This being my mission statement, I am targeting customers to a try and buy our new exciting product. “Mission states should be meaningful and specific yet motivating. They should emphasize the company’s strengths in the marketplace.” Armstrong, Gary, Philip Kotler. Marketing: An Introduction, 10th Edition. Page 41. I believe my mission statement is both meaningful and specific that it will push our product in the marketplace.

Price
I would price this accordingly for the places that would
want to buy it for example I would sell it to a bar for $2 a bag. As for the
regular market I would sell it for $2 a bag as for the family size I would sell
it for $4 a bag. This will help me earn a profit along with being able to meet
the needs of the buyer. The buyers can even buy in bundles. For example I would
have a shipping deal for bars so if you were to order a crate of 500 bags of
chips which will come out to $1000 but I would sell it to them at $800 so they
can get 100 bags of chips free.
Example: 500x2= 1000
400x2= 800
Saves 200 gets 100 bags of chips free.
Promotion
I would try to use all the styles of promotion from
advertising to free publicity.
·
Advertising: I would use the newspaper and magazines
to promote my product such as telling the customer to come on down and try the
new and exciting flavor of the Phileas new snack.
·
Free samples: I would offer free samples to
customers to show them the taste of Phileas new product, so if they enjoy it, I
can take that opportunity to show them the product and give them a price.
·
Word of mouth: I would start talking to someone
and then hopefully they will tell someone else about the product, so 2 turns
into 4, 4 into 8, 8 into 16 and so forth.
·
Coupons: I would offer coupons that would allow
the customer to get 10-20% off on the product.
·
Special prices: I would also offer special prices
to the people who came to buy the product as long as they have a special promo
code.
·
Free publicity: I would post this on face book
along with other social media sights to help promote this product.
Distribution
I consider myself an inventor first and an entrepreneur
second. In real life, my hero is Thomas Edison. He was a great inventor, but also
an outstanding entrepreneur who was able to sell his inventions to the masses.
He didn't just develop the light bulb; he invented the entire electric grid and
power distribution system.
-Aaron Patzer
The way I’m going to distribute this product is by meeting
with potential buyers. Along with also putting out ad campaigns showing that
our new product will be out soon. We can also create a commercial that will debut
the bag of chips. This will describe the chips in a new fashion so they can fit
in with todays crowed. Hopefully we will be able to land some contracts to distribute
the items to the designated locations. We will start small such the U.S.A as a
testing field since it is known as the melting pot of the world where all kinds
of races or religions mix. If the U.S.A is a success we will begin to
distribute these items to other countries.
Working with lots of old media clients, I've had a front-row
seat on the ascension of new social players and the decline of traditional news
outlets. And it's clear to me that old media has an awful lot to learn from
social media, in particular in five key areas: relevance, distribution,
velocity, monetization, and user experience.

Product
Our product is a delicious bag of crispy and cheesy croissants.
That every bite is an exploration into another world. With every bite your
taste buds take a trip around the world, just like Phileas Fogg did when he
went around the world in 80 days.
“One single supporter remained
faithful to him: an old paralytic, Lord Albermarle. The noble lord, confined to
his armchair, would have given his whole fortune to be able to travel around
the world, in ten years even; and he bet four thousand pounds on Phileas Fogg.”
― Jules Verne, Around the World in 80 Days
― Jules Verne, Around the World in 80 Days
“I see that it is by no means
useless to travel, if a man wants to see something new.”
― Jules Verne, Around the World in 80 Days
― Jules Verne, Around the World in 80 Days
These quotes can show you what
kind of character the movie was and Phileas Fogg was. It’s true that every man
wants to travel the world. To be able to see the different places, and experience
new things. Along with being able to see the heritage of the different countries.
Target Market Strategy
The target market in this case is people in bars and pubs
were they are able to grab a drink a quick bite to eat. This snack is designed
so 1-2 people can enjoy together and have a lovely conversation. The snack is designed
to eliminate social awkwardness in a social environment. The basic way to say
this is that the snack gives you the courage to walk up to the special someone
ad strike up a conversation. Even though most of our generation is socially awkward
and afraid we can hope to fill this gap but introducing it in a bar scene.
Situation or SWOT Analysis
SWOT ANALYSIS
v Strengths: The strengths of our
company is that we are able to reach to the public in a different way along
with being able to show how much we care about customer service and about
charity.
v Weakness: The Company has no known
issues other than getting the word out about our product and our cause. So for
now the company will be driving in the dark.
v Opportunities: Our opportunities is
that we will be able to express ourselves since we are in an era where self-expression
in any form is mainly accepted. Especially since now there is no gender roles
or sex roles everyone treats one another as equal.
v Threats the main threat our company may have is the economy
and rival companies wanting to steal our recipes with spies or other forms
(buying us out).
Objectives
The objective of my product is to promote the amazing story
and background of Phileas Fogg can be proud of. For every bag of Phileas Fogg
a dollar goes to charity. This will help support veterans and create great
marketing for the bars that carry our product along with anyone who is seen
with our product.
The
company will send $1 to charity for every bag of chips sold, the charity will
go to helping veterans who are disabled. This will show how we love and respect
our troops as well as how we all must have the heart to donate and help out
those who need it the most.
