Reflection On Team Project Experience

Decent Essays
Reflect on your team project experience. Describe how you contributed to the team, what skills you learned or improved, and what you would have done differently. Specifically, what was the most important aspect of integrated marketing communications that you learned throughout the project? Identify at least one obstacle you faced and how you (or you and your team) resolved it.
For Dr. Bell’s Promotional Mix, MKTG 132, class we were given the task of a semester long project regarding Facebook and their feature of Custom Audience. Throughout the whole semester I was given many roles and I learned of marketing and business skills that helped make our proposal successful. The various roles that I had overall team leader, researching and discovering

The one presentation that I really liked and wish we could have came up with an idea like that is the Where Waldo group and campaign. The aspect that I really liked about this group’s project is they had a specific campaign idea and based it all around the “Find Your Waldo” which was essentially what the Custom Audience aspect of Facebook looks to do. An obstacle that we faced was our initial aspect of creating a call center for our promotion of Facebook Custom Audience. This was an obstical because we basically put all our eggs in one basket and if it failed then our whole thing would be a failure. Dr. Bell told us to look for other media outlets to supplement the call center, which we took her advice and did. Although I felt that our project was very good in our various media outlets and ways of promotion, but having the one aspect of a creative campaign and tagline would greatly help our …show more content…
The inquiry tests are tests that are based on inquiries that are generated from ads appearing in various media. These tests can be used without media outlets in Forbes Magazine, direct mail, and email marketing. With these different mediums we can easily calculate how many people inquire about the Facebook Custom Audience feature, and narrow it down to see which medium their got the information from. Recognition tests are tests that measure the impact of the ad and see if they recall or what they remember from the advertisement. The process is done by interviews and seeing if they remember seeing the ad and those who read the ad. This will be most effective in our Forbes Magazine advertisements because it can be easily traced who subscribes to the magazine and interview them about the advertisement we placed. The last measurement is the day after recall tests which is measuring the recall of a specific ad the next day. This can be used for our call centers and further see how effective they are by talking with the previously called people and see if they remember the conversation and see how effect it was. All of these tests, with the addition to the easy tests such as sales and return on investments can be very effective for our team to measure how effective our promotional programs

    Over numerous years of schooling the idea that if we do not succeed then we fail has become ingrained into our minds. This mentality has prevented a multitude of people from learning from their mistakes; however, if students learn to recognize their mistakes not as a failure, but as a lesson to learn from, we could all improve ourselves. During my third season on my lacrosse team I was a varsity midfielder. Our team was in the playoffs preparing to play the number one team, Rockhurst.…

    Group projects at school are one of high schools most frustrating aspects for many students. Often, the teacher picks the groups and it never fails that you're stuck with someone very different from yourself. In my dual credit history class, the professor assigned us a very difficult project. We had to pretend that we were the United States government, and we had to come up with plans to solve the dust bowl, and the great depression and then present them to the class, who was in turn aloud to ask questions. I was a sore thumb in my group, big into the FFA and the agriculture world I had so many ideas to solve the dust bowl which in turn would help the great depression.…

    Making a video for marketing project can be difficult: getting students to participate, having a crystal clear concept to make an effective ad etc. Last year, I took a marketing management course where our teacher assigned the students a class project; the class project was about making a presentation and ad, coming up with our own brand name and packaging. Since it was a mega project for the whole class, it was difficult for everyone to even where to start from. Our teacher did give some hints and instructions, to make things easier she told the class to make an ad for any product we wanted. It was a tough choice to make because there were various categories of products and we were targeting an easy category, after discussing amongst ourselves we decided to do make a marketing campaign on a milk.…

    As members it is imperative for you to know why your role is so significant. As our district continues to welcome new diverse families into our home and school communities, it is important to work towards engaging these families in our schools because it is only when all community members are invested in how our schools operate and are involved in our students’ education that the productivity of our district can be at its highest level. One key issue for the team to consider when developing a plan is to ensure that the devised strategies are inclusive of all immigrant families regardless of ethnic backgrounds. The plan cannot specifically focus on one ethnicity.…

    Looking back on the past couple weeks on the project, I think we have done some valuable work that will help us on making our final conclusions with this project. This task differed from the way I normally do things as like I said in the last journal, English is not usually a group project class. I have greatly improved my communication with the team which is the key to success when in a group. Even though we have done previous projects with each other, there is always room for improvement in communication which I think we have all worked well to get better at. Some difficulties that we as a group have faced would be mainly finding a day in common with each other, and the person we interview as sometimes our schedules are so busy with sports,…

    At the beginning of the semester, we were assigned a team project. At first, the assignment sounded difficult to me because it was just at the beginning of the semester and I did not know my classmates or the team members assigned to my group. With the help of the teachers I was able to meet and get to know my team members by their names, we exchanged our phone numbers and email address to ease communication. In our first meeting, we were able to select the team leader, come up with the rules to govern the team and also plan the times we were going to be holding the team meeting every week. In our second session, we were able to come up with the project, discuss the project then divided and allotted tasks to each member.…

    Throughout the course, I learned different aspects of project management, and skills that can be used in the everyday life as long as involve interacting with other people. In this class I learned about how to be a better team member. This semester I was reminded of how important communication is and how people need to keep emphasizing it as one of the most important skills any person could possesses. The personality test was useful, I think it gave all of us a good way to start to see how everyone is different. It made it easier for each of us to better understand one another in how our unique personalities can be a challenge when working with others.…

    Reflection Paper II Throughout my college experience here in the Carroll School of Management, group work and the ability to work well with others has been emphasized greatly. This makes sense, because in a professional environment, the ability to communicate, listen and contribute within a group leads to success and the achievement of goals. However, none have gone on as long as this project, making it a more realistic example of working on a team. Junior year of college is definitely a crazy time, as we are forced to balance heavy workloads with extracurriculars and recruiting.…
