This week is my spring break.. it's just the one week off holiday between winter and spring quarter, but I have done quite a lot of things during these few days.. which includes a lot of hang out, shopping, eat lot of ice cream, chatting online, sleep and watch movies, etc. However, I'm going to live on my regular schedule again soon because spring quarter is going to start on Monday.. I will be taking 4 classes, they are Computer information system, Statistics, Finance, and Marketing.. Here come the good examples of what marketing is..!! I got it from one of my friend just few minutes ago..

MARKETING STRATEGIES: A Professor at one of the conference was explaining marketing concepts to students

1. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say: “I am rich. Marry me!” – That’s Direct Marketing.

2. You’re at a party with bunch of friends and see a gorgeous girl. One of your friend goes up to her and pointing at you says: “he’s very rich. Marry him!” – That’s Advertising.

3. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and get her telephone number. The next day, you call and say” “hi, i’m very rich. Marry me.” – That’s Telemarketing.

4. You’re at a party and see a gorgeous girl. You get up and straighten your tie, you walk up to her and pour her a drink, you open the door (of her car) for her, pick up her bag after she drops it, offer her ride and then say: “By the way, I’m rich. Will you marry me?” – That’s Public Relations.

5. You’re at a party and see a gorgeous girl. She walks up to you and say: “you are very rich! Can you marry me?” – That’s Brand Recognition.

6. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say: “I am very rich. Marry me!” She gives you a nice hard slap on your face. – That’s Customer Feedback.

7. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say: “I am very rich marry me!” And she introduces you to her husband, -- that’s Demand & Supply Gap.

8. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and before you say anything, another person comes and tells her: “I’m rich. Will you marry me?” And she goes with him – that’s Competition eating into your Market Share.

9. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and before you say: “I’m rich, marry me!” Your wife arrives. – That’s Restriction for entering New Markets.
