Final Reflection

Image
This has been an amazing class to be in. I have learned so much through the many fun and interactive assignments. One of the hardest assignments for me, was the elevator pitch. That is because I get very nervous and uncomfortable when public speaking. After doing it multiple times I was able to get more comfortable and have a better idea of how to do it and improve. I think that is going to be very helpful in the future, when I work in a business and need to speak in front of many people about my ideas. My favorite activity in this class was the first napkin idea. I enjoyed this because this was the first activity where I felt that the idea I was creating was a good idea and that it would actually be beneficial to many consumers. This class has really made me feel as if I am an entrepreneur and I feel as if I have been one. I think that in the future I would be able to use these ideas from these activities to help me create my own business one day. I enjoyed that thi...

Venture Concept No. 2

Reading Reflection No. 3

I decided to follow the questions of reading reflection No. 2. I chose to read about the art of social media by Guy Kawasaki. This book was about promoting yourself and business on social media. I think this is an important topic especially in today’s times. Many people use social media as a platform to help their business and I think this has a lot to do with what we have learned in ENT3003. Many people have social media accounts, whether it is to promote their customers or even themselves. This has to do with our class because we could use the idea concept we have been creating and use social media to network it for everyone to see and get feedback from other individuals. In this book, it explained that sharing opinions online can be harmful to your business. I agree with that because you can get negative feedback and allows others to see the negative feedback you have received and gives them the wrong idea.
