  • 23 Strange Answers
    23 ♦ Strange Answers Lawyer Plum was there and one pair of heirs when Otis Amber danced into the game room. “He-he-he, the Turtle’s lost its tail, I see.” Turtle slumped low in her chair. Flora Baumbach thought the short, sleek haircut was adorable, especially the way it swept forward over her little chin, but Turtle did not want to look adorable. She wanted to look mean. The dressmaker fumbled past the wad of money in her handbag. “Here, Alice, I thought you might like to see this.” Turtle glanced at the old snapshot. It’s Baba, all right, except younger. Same dumb smile. Suddenly she sat upright. “That’s my daughter, Rosalie,” Flora Baumbach said. “She must have been nine or ten when that picture was taken.” Rosalie was squat and square and squinty, her protruding tongue was too large for her mouth, her head lolled to one side. “I think I would have liked her, Baba,” Turtle said. “Rosalie looks like she was a very happy person. She must have been nice to have around.” Thump-thump, thump-thump. “Here come the victims,” Sydelle Pulaski announced. Angela greeted her sister with a wave of her crimson- streaked, healing hand. Turtle had convinced her not to confess: It would mean a criminal record, it would kill their mother, and no one would believe her anyhow. “I like your haircut.” “Thanks,” Turtle replied. Now Angela had to love her forever. Most of the heirs had to comment on Turtle’s hair. “You look like a real businesswoman,” Sandy said.

  • Indie TV: Innovation in Series Development Aymar Jean Christian Northwestern Univeristy I Spent Five Years Interviewing Creators
    Indie TV: Innovation in series development DRAFT Aymar Jean Christian Northwestern Univeristy I spent five years interviewing creators of American web series, or independent television online,1 speaking with 134 producers and executives making and releasing scripted series independent of traditional network investment. No two series or creators were ever alike. Some were sci-fi comedies created by Trekkers, others urban dramas by black women. Nevertheless nearly every creator differentiated their work and products from traditional television in some way. Strikingly, whenever I ask if any particular creator inspired them to develop their own show independently, I heard one response more than any other: Felicia Day. Indie TV creators revere Day for her innovation in production and distribution: she developed a hit franchise, The Guild, outside network development processes. The Guild, a sitcom about a diverse group of gamers who sit at computers all day to play an MMORPG in the style of World of Warcraft, ran for six seasons, from 2007 to 2013, and spawned a music video, DVDs, comic books, a companion book, as well as marshaled the passions of hundreds of thousands of fans. By the end of its run, The Guild had amassed over 330,000 subscribers on YouTube, though it could also be seen on other portals. In my work I have seen The Guild emerge as central to the online indie TV industry’s case for itself as antidote to what ails Hollywood. Day initially pitched to Christian, A.J. (forthcoming).

Why did I think this? Because a “shpiel,” which is just a nice Jewish word for a sales pitch, is a very ineffective way to persuade someone to give money to a cause. Leave your shpiel at home. Nobody wants to hear a sales pitch. Do you? When was the last time a hard sell worked on you? When was the last time you enjoyed hearing someone’s sales pitch? When was the last time someone “convinced” you to do something? Your donors don’t want to hear sales pitches. More importantly, they are usually not persuaded by sales pitches.

  • Examining the Broken Sales-Cycle in the Saudi Arabia Automotive Market
    International Journal of Business and Management; Vol. 9, No. 8; 2014 ISSN 1833-3850 E-ISSN 1833-8119 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education Examining the Broken Sales-Cycle in the Saudi Arabia Automotive Market Fadye Saud Al Fayad1 1 Management and Information Technology Department, Jubail Industrial College, Saudi Arabia Correspondence: Fadye Saud Al Fayad, Management and Information Technology Department, Jubail Industrial College, Saudi Arabia. E-mail:[email protected] Received: May 12, 2014 Accepted: June 22, 2014 Online Published: July 25, 2014 doi:10.5539/ijbm.v9n8p41 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ijbm.v9n8p41 Abstract This study examined the subject of the Saudi Arabian new vehicle market. The topic addressed involved the sales-cycle within the new vehicle purchase process in Saudi Arabia. The specific research problem identified a break-down in the sales-cycle or, alternatively, a dysfunctional approach to the final step in the sales-cycle which involves the post-purchase stage where the consumer typically makes referrals or recommendations to family, friends and colleagues regarding the product or service in question. In this case, the data collected for this study in the form of an informal, anonymous survey of people that have purchased a new vehicle in the Saudi market found that the satisfaction rates with dealers were an abysmal 50 to 60% depending on the specific aspect of service quality addressed. The secondary data found that there are more than 700 thousand new vehicles sold in Saudi Arabia on average annually and this figure is expected to surpass one million in several years.

DESCRIPTORS *Advertising; Art Education; Communications; Consumer Education; Content Analysis; *Critical Thinking; Evaluation Methods; Higher Education; Language Arts; Mass Media; *Persuasive Discourse; *Psychology; Secondary Education ABSTRACT This book probes the ways ads persuade people to purchase, and attempts to teach individuals to become more discerning consumers. Critical thinking, when applied to analyzing ads, benefits consumers by helping them recognize patterns of persuasion and sort incoming information in order to get to the hidden message. The book s basic premise is that all people are benefit-seekers and persuaders are benefit-promisers. There are four dynamics of benefit-seeking behaviors: (1) protection, or keeping a perceived "good";(2) relief, or getting rid of a perceived "bad";(3) acquisition, or getting a new "good"; and (4) prevention, or avoiding getting a new "bad." The book identifies a five-part strategy of the basic pattern of advertising ("Hi, Trust Me, You Need, Hurry, Buy"), discusses the vocabulary of advertising, and provides exercises, discussion topics, and quiz sheets as learning and assessment tools.

  • Fox Entertainment Group (A)
    The Anderson School at UCLA POL 2003-7 Fox Entertainment Group (A): Vertical Integration in the Television Industry Copyright © 2003 by the Regents of the University of California. Daniel Granof (MBA candidate ’03) pre- pared this case under the supervision of Professor Olav Sorenson for the purpose of facilitating class dis- cussion, rather than illustrating either effective or ineffective handling of a business situation. Fox Television Network In 1985 Rupert Murdoch, after acquiring the Twentieth Century Fox studio for a total of $575 million through his holding company, News Corporation (NewsCorp), decided to start a fourth broadcast network on the advice of Barry Diller, the highly sought-after ex- ecutive recently recruited to Fox from industry leader Paramount Studios. NewsCorp purchased Metromedia from media mogul John Kluge, gaining control of seven key in- dependent TV stations in several large East Coast cities and Los Angeles. Fox quickly lined up 88 additional independent stations to become its network affiliates and launched the Fox Television Network in 1986. Initially the network reached only 60% of the coun- try and aired original network programming only one night a week, on Sunday. Everyone in the industry thought Diller and Murdoch crazy. At the time the big three networks had a combined television viewing share of 93%. To attract viewers away from them, Fox chose to go after two key demographics: youth, a group coveted by advertis- ers, and African-Americans. As Diller said, “We had to air shows that demanded your attention, that yanked you by the throat to get you to change the channel.”1 Peter Chernin, a loyal executive who would eventually become Murdoch’s second in command, concurred: “We’re in the attention-getting business.
