Here are the rules of the pitch:<\/p>\n 1 – You will have 2 minutes to complete your pitch. You should fill all 2 minutes but you can’t go over. I will stop you at 2 minutes. This requires PRACTICING your pitch. Now that you have an extra day you can do that!<\/p>\n 2 – Each group will be given $100,000 to decide where they want to invest their money. This runs counter to reality (where you *should* invest your own money in your business) but for the sake of this exercise in school, you CANNOT invest in your own product. That’s why you have to try to give a CONVINCING pitch to entice your classmates to invest at least some if not all of their money into the development of your product!<\/p>\n 3 – The product with the most investments will win a small prize \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n November 15, 2019<\/p>\n Click here <\/a>for a copy of the powerpoint presentation on the 5 Utilities October 30, 2019<\/p>\n Please type up a personal<\/span> reflection on the Product Launch assignment, thinking about how you think the project went for you, triumphs and challenges, and what you would do differently in terms of the following:<\/span><\/p>\n Marketing research (developing a survey, getting the survey completed, gathering and reviewing the data, gathering feedback through focus groups)<\/p>\n Project organization and teamwork (communication, shared responsibilities and workload, timelines)<\/p>\n Presentation (powerpoint \u2013 content and \u201clook\u201d, oral presentation)<\/p>\n Overall comments about the project \u2013 what you enjoyed, what you did not enjoy, feedback on ways to improve the assignment<\/p>\n October 10, 2019<\/p>\n Here is the presentation <\/a> on the Product Launch assignment Sept 26, 2019<\/p>\n Here is a copy of the presentation <\/a>on Healthy Food Sales in BC Schools Sept 24, 2019<\/span><\/p>\n Here is a copy of the presentation <\/a>on the Marketing Mix \/ 4 Ps You have this block to work on it.
