This campaign season, I worked for Bruce Davis. Bruce Davis was the Democratic candidate chosen in the primary to run for House of Representatives in the Thirteen District in North Carolina. This campaign season was not a traditional one in comparison to what I’ve studied of past campaign’s. Our world has changed with the creation of social media and campaign’s have changed with it. In our campaign we had to look harder to find a proper strategy for using social media to are advantage and think…

Harley-Davidson, Inc. was founded in 1903 by William Harley and the Davidson Brothers, William, Arthur, and Walter. The first model motorcycle was built in the Davidson’s garage, and was a three-horsepower engine. In 1969, Harley-Davidson saw its first glimpse of competition from Honda, when Honda introduced a four-cylinder motorcycle, which was more advanced than anything Harley-Davidson made. Harley was acquisitioned by AMF around 1969, and that brought more problems for the company. The…

distribution process can quickly diminish revenue. Harley Davidson has adopted a system in which, the motorcycle parts, are built at various locations and eventually become assembled in only two manufacturing plants within the United States. After the motorcycles are built, they are shipped to independently owned and operated Harley Davidson stores nationwide. This provides many benefits to Harley Davidson and owners alike. Place The backbone of Harley Davidson is located in Milwaukee,…

Burgeoning playwright Amy Herzog attempts to illustrate this pursuit through the character Jamie, a potential victim of child molestation. This November, The Great God Pan opened at Davidson College’s Barber Theatre. Directed by Dr. Sharon Green, the gingerly evocative play provided an opportunity for six Davidson students to grapple with Herzog’s mature and sensitive characters. The play opens as Jamie, a journalist living in New York City, meets an old childhood friend, Frank, for coffee.…

What activities at Dirt Bikes create the most value? Dirt Bikes USA’s inbound logistics which include acquiring top of the line parts to create their off-roading bikes from within the US and around the globe, create the most value. A prime example of this is their Rotax engines which are from Austria, while their shock absorbers and headlights are from the US. Dirt Bikes USA custom builds all the frames of their bikes, which have become a trademark for the company. After assembling each bike,…

Harley-Davidson’s Business Strategy Harley-Davidson generates 88 percent of its revenues from a single business area, the Motorcycles and Related Products, making it a low-diversification strategy. From its emphasis on quality and customer experience, it appears to be using a focused differentiation strategy, targeting a narrow market of high-end customers who are willing to pay a premium price for its products (Hitt, Ireland, & Hoshisson, 2015). By targeting exclusively on the heavyweight…

G- Dell Curry: 1988-1998 Although today he is known mostly for being the father of Steph Curry, Dell Curry’s career should not be overlooked. Curry spent 10 seasons in Charlotte and is one of the best players in franchise history. He’s the team’s all-time leader in games played, field goals made, 3-point field goals made, and points scored. The majority of the success the Hornets’ organization has had since joining the NBA came during Curry’s 10 seasons. The team made the playoffs in four of…

When looking at the rivalry from competitors, Harley-Davidson is doing very well domestically, controlling nearly fifty percent of the market share within the United States. In terms of their global positioning, Harley-Davidson has fared fairly well with a strong positioning in the Asia-Pacific market. In the European market however, larger motorcycles are not used as frequently as are smaller and more efficient bikes, leading to a lower market positioning. When analyzing the potential new…

Needless to say, they have a lot of competition that is sitting right on the shoulders of their brand. You have major competitors like Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki, and Yamaha selling motorcycles that were a lot cheaper in price compared to those of Harley Davidson. All of the above competitors are part of the foreign market in reference to bikes that are known to be more lightweight than the heavy weights Harley’s. Harley took a slow start in engaging into that whole industry as a whole because once…
