Week 7 EOC: The Pitch

When it comes the famous infinite bar setting, finding a delicious treat that satisfies both  man and female and that can be shareable can be a challenge. With much consideration, Phileas Fogg's Ceviche Taco Rolls are the new popular snack. The book states that "A product is "anything that can be offered to the market for attention, acquisition, use, or consumption, that might satisfy a want or need." While absorbing the consumed alcohol, these delicious, lightly spicy and tangy rolls encourage both men and woman to drink and eat more. With the rolls having tangy flavors and spices from jalapeno, limes, cilantro, and Pico de Gallo these rolls pair   perfectly with tequila while enhancing the natural flavors from the tequila.

While embracing my Mexican culture I plan to develop a chip rolled into a taquito style that bursts with lightly spicy spices and tangy flavors such as; jalapenos, limes, cilantro, and Pico de Gallo  that would put a spicy new spin on bar food in Mexican cantina theme bars. Popular Mexican dishes such as ceviche, are seasoned into the rolled taquito chips and form an tasty blend of spicy, salty, and a little sweet that would surely be a hit in any cantina. Our product would be made with zero trans-fat and zero cholesterol, which could draw attention from women trying to keep an eye on their weight. With establishing our brand from scratch, our design and packaging would be a top priority for us. Our product would be sold in a 1.52 oz. container made of cardboard and metal ends all coming from recycled material, featuring our Phileas Fogg in his hot air balloon wearing a sombrero and Mexico City's Metropolitan Cathedral in the background.

Week 6 EOC: Me X 3

Everyone has a scent that they refer to as “their” scent; mine would be Flora by Gucci in Glamorous Magnolia. It is a soft, floral scent that bursts with a fusion of peony and magnolia. It’s the perfect fragrance for spring and spring happens to be my favorite season. To me this scent is very charming, romantic, and optimistic and who doesn’t want all that in their lives. Every day when I get ready, I remember I can’t leave without spritzing my Flora; it reminds that no matter where I am or what I’m doing, I can stop and smell the flowers.

Burt’s Bees is a brand that I enjoy and would recommend to everyone. When I use Burt’s Bees products, I know I’m getting something that is natural and providing my skin with the best ingredients. My lips are delicate and to keep them from getting chapped, I use Burt’s Bees Wild Cherry Lip Balm. This lip balm is made with cherry oil, coconut oil, beeswax, sunflower seed oil, and rosemary leaf extract. With ingredients like this, Burt’s Bees can guarantee that this lip balm is 100 percent natural and most importantly, free from animal testing. It’s skin-friendly, life-friendly, and 100 percent for me.

Every day I’m always on the go, whether I’m going to school, work, or just walking my dogs, I know it’s important to always have water with me. Living in Las Vegas, we all know that’s impossible to leave a water bottle in your car for five minutes and still expect it to be cold. For almost thirty dollars, I decided to purchase something known as a Hydro Flask. Hydro Flask is an insulated water bottle that is made from high quality food grade 18/8 stainless steel. Sounds fancy right? Well not only is it BPA free, but Hydro Flask will keep your drink at your preferred temperature for hours, and I mean hours. So if you like your hot’s hot and cold’s cold, get yourself a Hydro flask and like me, you’ll take it everywhere you go.

Week 5 EOC: Social Networks and Job Hunting

Reading this article was another reinsurance that it is about networking and who you know when it comes to landing a job. The article stated that candidates tend to value referrals from their connections on Facebook more than reaching out to someone new by LinkedIn or any other job searching website. This also showed that social media is not only dominating in marketing, political views, and so on, but also in job hunting. In today’s digital age social media is everywhere and almost everyone is on it. With companies posting on twitter, Facebook, and or Instagram they know their postings will be seen, that including’s post about hiring and or job fairs. The article stated that in addition to posting jobs and videos of current employees on its Facebook page, the company has recruiters and other employees find user groups and join discussions. With Facebook dominating in the social media platform, I believe it has and or already is rivaling against traditional job boards because one, money is time and two, we all know almost everyone has a Facebook page. In June, the application now has nearly 800,000 monthly users, according to AppData.com, with results like these why would any company waste time to post job post anywhere else?
