I have selected the below 4 promotional activities for Nature Care Products to undertake: • advertisements • media announcements • product launches • web pages Promotional activities Reasons for identifying the activity as suitable 1. advertisements: Exposing the company and its products to as much potential customers as possible is a basic principle of all retail businesses • exposure to be achieved: It is essential that customers are aware of the existence of the company, products and what the purposes of these products are. Without this awareness by customers the company will quickly be forgotten. 2. media announcements From times to times, the company may need to communicate to its customers in a non sale-specific way to convey particular message. • timing of the activity or event: There are times when the company needs to convey some particular message to its customers which are not directly related to sales, but highly relevant to what goes on at the particular point of time. 3. product launches It is one of, if not the most, effective method to impress upon the customers the debut of the new products • matching of attendees to target markets: Product launching generally targets specific audiences who are likely very interested in the type of products being launched. These target group will become the first customers who will spread the words about the products, good or bad. 4. web pages Most consumer product retailer brands have websites to provide information about

Another component comparing Jamestown and Plymouth colonies would be their aspects on Indian relations. The English colonists arrived in Chesapeake Bay where the Powhatan Indians had been calling home for quite some time. There were over thirty Indian tribes totaling 14,000 Indians. This is where the first colony, Jamestown, was settled in 1607. I believe this created a lot of tension between the Indians and the new settlers considering the previous settling and attacks of the Spanish on the Indians. The Indians lived such a generous way of life welcoming the new English settlers by offering them food. However, the good intentions faded quickly after. The leader of the Powhatan Indians, Powhatan, was intending to entice the English through generosity and their selfless attitudes. Sure enough, this act of kindness was overlooked by the English colonists, and they immediately began searching for wealth such as tobacco. As we have spoken about in class, Jamestown was a colony that significantly valued material objects and wealth; whereas Plymouth colony did not focus their rule around that idea. The new colonists were so set on acquiring wealth that they failed to grow crops such as corn and beans. This led the English to depend more on the Indians for food since the Indians were very successful farmers and knew how to live off the land.
It is very important in business that individuals have lucrative methods of communication in order to convey important messages, and use these methods in order to interact with other businesses and the public. Methods of communication can also be commonly used to advertise and market, for example via the use of social networks which advertise to a wide range of individual, to through written posters which can be placed up in shop advertisements and on notice boards alike.
Sometimes it’s not so important that your product fits the exact needs of the segment you target; rather, it’s vital that customers perceive that you do, even if it’s not true. In order to achieve this, the proper amount of advertising and sending the appropriate message are both vital.
When trying to communicate a sound and creative solution to a problem, it is important to persuade the target audience. In many instances, communications of this type fail to reach an agreement with the target audiences. When a company fails to reach this agreement it often ends in bad business or lost accounts, and there is a great example of failing to persuade the target audience within the Raymond Storage Concepts Inc.’s sales team. The latest example of a lost account is when the RSCI dealership tried to pitch their Radio Shuttle as a new material handling practice to ABC Company. Although the Radio Shuttle is a great product, it was RSCI’s job to persuade their audience to buy this product, to defeat their main competitor, Cardinal Carryor.
The channel best suited to communicate this type of message would be a letter. When passing a message onto a consumer a written formality is needed to outline the company’s policy.
Of the messages mentioned previously, the one we would want to communicate with personal selling would be that LevelCan is the trashcan that every family needs. The reason for choosing this message for personal selling is that we would actually be interacting with individuals within our target market. During the interaction, we would communicate the other aspects of LevelCan, which make it desirable and a “must have” for families. By directly communicating the reason for such a unique product, there is a high possibility that the interaction will be successful (in gaining the sale). This would be pull because we would be communicating to the consumers why they need and should buy our product. In turn, they would want retailers to stock
usinesses are very crucial to the economy. Good business messages are essential to keep the business relation in good health too. There are many types of business messages which a business can write to another daily with regards to business. It These can include messages on sales and purchases, products and services, confirmation or cancellation of orders, invoices, company announcements and notifications, employee related news such as promotions, awards, increments, bonus, appraisals, resignation and termination for example.

Business messages to the public could be an announcement, promotion, surveys, notification of change of address or contact information about the business or some other information which a client should know to ensure continued patronage of the company’s products and services.
The assumption that making a public campaign only for launching the product will increase the awareness among the people is not exactly true.As we see daily many products are launching it is not necessarily true that we remember all of them.

Assumptions are often made about drugs; furthermore, assumptions about business are made almost as frequently. Often what seems obvious from any ideological perspective will become more complex upon further examination; in other words, the truth is nearly impossible to find if your faith is not in philosophical harmony with art, science, history and the truth as we best have knowledge of it today. Understanding the need for substantive discourse is an excellent first step towards finding the truth.
