Sandwich Blitz Unit 6 Mini Case

Decent Essays
The presentation started off good with the owner naming her business and the products that they provide. She also clearly stated what she was looking for in regards to an investment. I think she could have made this opening better by starting off with providing the solution that her product solves. She does eventually provide this information but she provides too much information. Her overview on how the company started and solution that her product provides took over 45 seconds and should have been delivered with less detail. The next phase of her pitch starts off well as she clearly states what she thinks are unique selling points of the product as well as the benefits of the product. The example she used was seeing a colorfully umbrella with a positive message in a sea of back umbrellas. …show more content…
For example, she did not touch upon her sales and profitability of the business until the question was asked. I would have included this when discussing the investment that I was looking for. She also didn’t mention anything about the business scalability or how she was planning on getting any kind of market share. The product that she was providing was just a different take on products that are already in the market place. If she could have provided a plan on how she was going to increase sales and market her product to grow her business she may have gotten a better response from the investors. Overall since her business was not profitable and she didn’t define a clear plan on how she would make the business profitable with the investment that she was asking for I would consider this a below average elevator

    This totally made sense to me because without knowing a person’s language or how to speak with them you feel distant from them. If you know their language you can know something about their culture and history. The only thing that I noticed that would help the presentation was the slideshow. There were a lot of spacing and grammatical errors. This is understandable because translating is difficult and English is her second language but someone should have proof read the…

    For this assignment, I interviewed Felicia Low, a Program Advisor at the School of Public Health. This interview taught me a lot about myself and my interpersonal communication skills when it comes to communication on a one-on-one basis. Prior to the interview, I was a bit nervous since I did not know Mrs. Low personally and never communicated with her face-to-face. I prepared to conduct the interview in a way that it would feel like a normal conversation and not a regular interview. For example, I would not always say things from the interview questions that I prepared, I would sometimes ask a question on piece of information that she would share.…

    I was recently invited to attend the Toastmasters meeting in Millington, Tennessee, however I was not entirely sure what to expect. I was, to say the least, surprised at how informal and socially casual the club is. In contrast with a TED talk’s audience, there is no harsh buzzer or overbearing timer to stare at while giving your presentation, the meeting was in fact, very relaxed and only focused on self-improvement. It was a place to hear others and be heard yourself, to give honest feedback, to improve the art of the conversation, and to master the art of public speaking.…

    In counselling, relationships are very important. These relationships between the counsellor and the client are determined by the time and effort we put into developing and maintaining this relationship. In a way, a counsellor is a friend, but a friend who has the experience and the ability to apply different skills to assist people to solve their own problem instead of providing them with a solution. Self-evaluation is very useful to identify the strengths and weaknesses of these skills. The purpose of my self-evaluation is to reflect upon the used/unused skills which I applied by identifying areas where they have been used successfully and others that needs improvement.…

    For my TED Talk critique, I watched Mei Lin Neo’s, “The Fascinating Secret Lives of Giant Clams.” In order to hook the audience, Mei Lin Neo starts by sharing some of the many nicknames she is called due to her constant discussion of giant clams. Beginning the talk this way is intriguing because even just speaking of her nicknames you can tell she is truly passionate about her work. Also, that she understands that her passion can lead to her talking non-stop about a topic that others may not find quite as intriguing.…

    Most of us seek happiness in all the wrong places. Trying to fill our lives with superficial happiness and instant gratification instead of valuing life as it is.

However, I found one in particular, and it managed to make a significant impact on my perception of happiness.…
