L.O: Run a profitable business.
S.C:

• Stick to a given budget
• Keep track of your spending choices
• Keep financial records

So far I think that I need to work on this L.O. We need to make our product quicker and organise how many we are going to produce to sell enough to make a profit. We did a moderate job on sticking to the budget however we weren't able to obtain the glue gun sticks because our budget wasn't enough.We kept track of our spending choices and search are needed materials online to get the estimated cost. Also we filled out our finnacial record and managed to finish it early.

What my company did so far.

We are selling picture frames made out of popsicle sticks but not just any ordinary popsicle stick, it's decorated with washi tapes. We finished all our paper work that we needed to do and did our advertisements. From the speed that we are making our products I think we have a chance on finishing and have enough product .

What's our next step?

To have enough production to make profit and packaged our prouduct well.

What you expect on Market Day?

I expect that we will atleast sell enough to make up for the $18.50.

Famous Pharmacist:

The person we will be doing is John Pemberton he was born on 8th of July 1831, he sadly died on 16th August 1888 due to stomach cancer at the age of 57. After he graduated from Unitversity Of Georgia and got a pharmacist degree he went straight to war to be a Lieutenant Colonel. After the civil war he formed a company where he experimented with pharmacuetical products. He was famous for creating Coca-Cola  by accident, he got addicted to morphine and cocaine so he needed to solve the problem  by developing a drink.

2 facts about him:

1. Pembertons's Partner suggest to have to c's instead of Coca-Kola (Kola if from one of the ingredients).
2. Pemberton got addicted to morphine but he got banned from it so he did cocaine as a subtitute.

Why I chose to study job:

The reason why I chose this job is because I see a lot pharmacist everytime I go to the mall and always wonder if they do more than distrubute medicines.

Would I want to this job?

No, I'm personally not interested on having an occupation related to medicines.

What skill do I think I have that would make me good/bad at this job and how good will I think I will be at this job.

I don't think I would be perfect for this job because I'm an introvert and I don't like communicating with strangers. Also I forget things easily especially medicines that have long names. I believe that this job is not right for me, I would be really horrible at it because I would be too shy to talk to the costumers.

Asking people in class:

Sarah's response: The only thing she knows about being a pharmacist is dealing with medicines. She doesn't think it would be fun becuase she doesn't want to deal with complicated ''things''. She thinks that she would be bad at this job because she needs to be dilicate around medecine and she's not delicate.

Jeremiah's response:

He doesn't know anything about being a pharmasict. He thinks that it won't be fun because he doesn't know what the job is about. He thinks he would be bad at it because he might give a wrong medicine.

Advertising- Ethos, Pathos, Logos.

Ethos:

Uses a famous/respected person to convince the buyer that it is a good product because we more likely to trust famous people.

They used a famous person (Kendall Jenner) for people to trust their product and get them into thinking itś good.

Pathos:
Way of persuading in a emotional way.

They showed pathos by trying to make people sad by showing what happens in a everday life to a person with cancer. 

Logo:

Uses factual/ Statistical stament and surveys to get the buyers to thinking it is real. Also use words that mean nothing but sound factual.

It is giving us a factual information by telling the viewers that it only take 30 seconds.














This ad used two ways of persuading. First, Ethos, they used a famous singer, Taylor Swift which convince people to buy coke so they will forget the fact that it´s unhealthy. Second Logos, they added Extraodinary which is nonsense but sound good.

This ad clearly uses pathos by having a picture of a dead bird so people would feel sorry for the animal so they will stop littering.
