ipod vending machine

I have already evaluated some topics about "vending machine",but it`s one is more interesting thing to evaluate.

Like other vending machines,it is more convenient than others.I like it!It looks fashion!cool!You may get the things that you want to buy in shops.

BUT!!!!I think the drawbacks is obvious!

1.you can`t get more information from it!what you can do is just buy it....if you don`t know some key point!Maybe you will regret...

2.HOW MUCH MONEY IT ACCEPTS?

AS we know,in EF school, the self machine just accept the coins!thet don`t accept the cash!This is a problem!LET US ASSUME the ipod machine accepts the cash,so what per value does it accept?10?20?because most of machine don`t accept 50!(when I take money from the bank,the machine only gives me 10and 20)so if you want to buy ITOUCH( cheapest:179pounds )you must put 10times 18=180.You must put 10pounds into the machine 18times.....get tired!

ALSO,does the machine give back you cash or coins???if I want to buy an IPOD 129pounds and I just got 140pounds(20times7=140)so the machine must give 11 pounds back to me.Is it 11 one pound coins????heavy....................

SOMETHING I WANT TO MENTION:the security!IN THE MID NIGHT,some one break the glass by using hammer or screwdriver and they stolen the ipod?What to do???(I don`t think the glass is as strong as diamond)

Emmmmm....I think it is a good idea,but bucause you put IPOD in the machine not 50p`s sweets.It`s difficult to protect the machine....that is the point!

FOR CHRIS!

thank you for you business exam book!It`s really helpful!

and I`d like to retake the exam which we did today!COULD YOU ASSESS IT ???or give me a new textpaper!Thank you so much!

Some explainations!(1)

When you do some exams in some questions you need to explain the word at first!
But some of them you might don’t know, there explainations maybe give you some help!

PRIMARY RESEARCH(field): first-hand information that is related directly to a firm’s need

SECONDARY RESEARCH(desk):information collected from second-hand sources. Can provide information on market size and market trend

MARKET SIZE:the total sales of all the producers within a market-place measured either by volume or value

Market niche:a small range market

Franchise:A business base on the name,logo and trading method of an existing successful business.
To obtain a franchise requires payment of an initial fee

PRIVATE LIMITED COMPANY:
A small to median-sized business that is usually run by family that owns it.

(ALL THERE FROM A-Z BOOK!)

drawback of private limited company:
the ertrepreneur no longer owns all of the business-they have to give the shareholders a share of the profit,and they also have to give them a say in how the business is run!(from revision guide)

MR chris!HELP!

DO YOU THINK I CAN TAKE THE BUSINESS EXAM IN JAN???IS IT DIFFICULT?????
I REALLY WANT TO KNOW?
IF I ENTRY THE EXAM,WHAT GRADES DO YOU THINK I COULD GET????IS IT POSSIBLE TO GET B????????????????????????
AND IF I DON`T JOIN THE EXAM THIS IN JAN,IS IT BAD FOR ME?
thank you！！！！！！！！！！

Retractable umbrella

b

Today we are going to evaluate the special umbrella.

In some Asian countries,after they wash their clothes by using washing mashine,the washing will help to dry it.But sometimes it can`t dry it completely!So some family will put it in the balcony or outside.It`s normal.

But why not to try the retractable umbrella?!

It has smart systems

1.The umbrella will clean itself when it`s rainy.

2.it`s fully-retractable,to avoid the wind!

3.Flexible ribs,it can flow with the wind.It can get used to the wind`s direction efficiently ! SO it provents clothes from being wet again!It is the most important reform for the same kinds of products!!

It is elastic!Because there are more competitors!More subtitudes!

ALSO!The company can stick advertisements on the umbrella，maybe it will make more profit.

....I`m confused why it`s cheaper than other?because it has more technology,why it`s cheap?Maybe using the cheap material？if so，how to provent????

But it`s useful!Especial for Asian countries!Good market idea!

Should do

1. Daily posts in your blog. (For Business Studies students you should be visiting sites and assessing businesses. For Economics students I have given you daily questions - I have seen no answers.) You are supposed to list everyone else's blogs on your blog so you can all keep in contact, help one another etc. (Rinat has three females looking after him, for example.)
2. 3 mind maps a day related to the chapters of the book I sent round. (This is for Economics students - not one student has done this so already you are falling behind)
4. Enter the Business competition. Some people did - not many but at least they tried. A big difference in the standard of entries! I am giving you until FRIDAY 4.40pm to hand in entries as some people seem to have forgotten.
5. Book reviews (Economists) Where are the reviews on pigs and sex and drugs and...economics?
7. Learn web design and Desk Top publishing.
8. Checking out links and practising! The pathetic attempts a few hours ago where you thought demand was supply and supply was demand and two people even thought a PPF had a price on and the PPF shifted to show demand.....I despair!
9. You were supposed to be doing questions on market failure - but no-one bothered and that's why when asked about it pink people just looked confused.If you pretend you don't know about externalities then ask the person in this photograph!
10. Business glossary - what happened? Have you forgotten this:
11. It was only voluntary for some Business Studies students - but they could still have done it! You need all the practice you can get!
12. EIGHT Economics students were supposed to be doing this. Did all eight do it - I think not. Take responsibility for the other members in the group!
13. Business Studies students - what has happened? Where is it?
14. More lack of work by Business Studies students - you've missed ICT this week. What's happened? Why didn't you use the spare time?
16. You seem to have stopped being interested in University (16th October lecture)
17. So few of you even want to go to the LSE lecture just the six of you
18. Set a week ago for Economists, COLLECTIVE RESPONSIBILITY. Work to help each other. If you don't then some will be dragged down to such a low level they will think a PPF is a demand curve, that S - S1 is the opposite and that D stands for David and not 'demand'!
19. Some people are studying Philosophy - what happened to putting it into practice?
20. Even though I cover something in a blog and in class, pink people still claim never to have seen things or read them.Read and revise - all the time!
22. Are the weaker members constantly improving their English? If not then this will hold back others so make sure that everyone practises using this.
23. Business Studies students should be working through these articles.
24. So, no-one interested? That's fine...I suppose.
25. And finally, don't forget this...(I had hoped by now that at least you would know each other's names!)And don't forget to watch Youtube!

Snowter(after chris assessment!)

It’s not a snow mobile, it’s not a snow board, and it’s not a bike. It’s a ‘snowter’!
What’s a ‘snowter’?
It’s a new form of transportation used on snow.
It combines a bike’s handle bars and snow board.
In my opinion compared with a snow board it’s considerably easier to control. Compared with a snowmobile, it’s safer.
Does it take up much space?
Absolutely not!!
The components of the snowter are assembled!
You can take it apart when you go home.(convenient)
Where we can use it?
For some tourist destinations in the winter.
It’s popular and I think we can offer a fantastic price .
1.Depends on what size you need. The children’s size is cheaper than the adult size, but we can also offer a family package!
2.Depends on the time. One hour is £9 but if you want two hours it’s £15!So more people are likely to choose more time for a better deal!
Also we can supply some accessories such as hats, gloves, or scarves to keep you warm!
At the end of the adventure we can take a photo of you so that you will always have something to remind you of your wonderful day.

5000 car wash for celebrities

When I first saw this business idea,the frist reflection is expensive luxury!

It`s depends on different types of people!BACKHAM for example.

Rich people don`t care how much they spend on washing cars,In their opinions they reckon if you can wash my car like new,how much?I DON`T CARE?It`s a piece of cake for me.It`s a small sum of money to me!It`s an advandage that you can earn more and more profit once or twice...

But also because of it,mid-class and low-class people can`t afford!It`s a real drawback!In general 80%of people in the world are not rich special in delveloping counties people,it`s fact!I think they should supply more different types of price fit for all kinds of people!

Old-Fashioned Barber with Cheap Men’s Haircuts(after chris assessment)

I’m in ICT class writing my new blog! (The maths teacher is ill and I hope she will recover quickly!)Today’s blog is about special BARBERSHOPS.

The first one is called Rudy’sWhen was it established? Rudy's was established in Seattle in 1992. Why did we choose this one over other ones?
Easy, this was down to their good classical styles, their elegant music and their choice of interesting signs. The second one is called v`sWhen was it established? In November 1999, V's Barbershop & Shoeshine ®opened in the Arcadia neighbourhood of Phoenix.What do they supply? Whatever hairstyles you want!They cater for sports stars and every type of event!They have short, traditional haircuts, as well as contemporary and trendy styles. And they dye any fashion colours you like! enjoy it!!!!!!!CAN you believe it!!!!!!??????Shoe shines!!!!! It’s incredible! I may never ever see it in my country, a freshly shined pair of shoes from a barber shop!IN A WORD!Different barbershops have different services. The purpose is to attract people to spend money.The question is how to reduce the cost, to get more profit!?Comparing these two barbershops, I think each one has their own good points!But maybe expansion into other areas is the way forward. It would seem that a barbershop that just cuts your hair has no future!

IPOD(3)---service END

What i must to say is IPOD is famous not only the produts are fashion but they have very good service!They afford much more new games,best and the rank of songs and podcasts(you can download some business podcasts as well),you don`t need to go to other websites.

Cheese burger in a can

Do you believe it?You can put a burger in a can like ham!

It`s a good choice when you have a trip or picnic with your friends,you can share it if you want,that`s why it`s that convenient.

But I have to say it tastes not such good!Maybe that`s because in a can.And I`m not sure the meat or vegetable is fresh enough,so I`m worry about it!Or eaten cold is not a good idea!

Also,I support you go to KFC,MC or BURGER KING to have a burger if time is enough,because the meat and vegetable are fresh!(though I don`t like eat fast food)disgusting!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Price:3.95 EUR (around $6)not cheap!

If I got 3.95EUR I would rather go to KFC!

Today,i saw a TVprogramme called dragon dan.
It`s about someone eager to find investors to support their products!But you must have more ability and confident to persuade millionaires.

questions:
baby dream machine
I think the who introduce the product is a little bit tense.I think the product is good!helpful!
But I just want to know what is it made of?is it heavy?Because nomally,wife will take care of moppet,if it is heavy,bad for female!And how much profit he thinks he will get!?!?!?!?

music concert!
He is such rude that I can`t believe he is a person who need money!?!If I were them I won`t let him on TV!Consumer is your God!
And I want to ask him how will you start him plan?It is hard to have a open music concert.
And nobody know who are you .Where you invite the music band?how famous?Do you think how much will you pay for them?Are you sure you will get profit?
BECAUSE there are much more unconstant factors!HOW about weather?

I think that is a good TV show!I really like it! And i`m interesting!

IPOD(2)--fittings(double check)

If you buy an ipod!In the packge you got an ipod,earphone,usb connection,and a handbook.
Earphone
But!the earphone is normal,not special!So IC(ipod company)produces more fashion earphones for people to choose.They know some people will buy it!

Protection
When you but an ipod you like it! you treat it as your baby,so you want to protect it.You need to buy a plastic box to cover your ipod,there are much more choices for you and also have different price!The latest product is IPOD SOCKS!

ISOUND
You like rock, you like classical,and you want to play to loudly in your room.You don`t want to earphone.Don`t worry !you can buy isound which can connect with ipod and make the sound loudly(like radio)!You will enjoy it!It`s also has different type of price.

Why producer makes more types of product and price?Bucause they know people have different opinions.Someone is fashion,someone is normal,someone is rich,someone is professional.They buy different productes.The IC will make more profit!

IPOD(1)---refirm

Today,more and more people have got IPHONE!why IPHONE is more popular than other mobile phone?
Before IPHONE, IPOD is the most popular MP3 player!Because of the menu,podcast and other 3rd service!you can download as much songs, podcast and least films as you like on IPOD offical webside.You have more choice!You buy more service!SO more and more people like it and buy it!That`s why tertiary section is that important!That`s why China want to develop it!!!!!

After IPOD, the company promulgates the IPOD TOUCH which has big screen!And built in many new programme such as:map,wifi,mobile me and so on.The most improtant change is it is tangibly!!!! It makes a huge success!

IPHONE which can dial and has camera,have made a big refirm!That means you can do anything on IPHONE!Of coures it is tangibly!It is nearly perfact!But never end!

Bus Time!!!!!!

I hate bus time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
today i waited bus for 40minutes!!!!STAGECOACH!!!!!!!
Some of my friend told me it is better to take OXFORD bus company!because that always on time,and has AIR-CONDITION!
I think stagecoach is missing more and more consumers!because time is improtant for the people who have to take bus to work!If you always late, they won`t choose your bus company!You can get more profit!So your bus company will become smaller and smaller!your compititor will get stronger and stronger!!!
OXFROD BUS COMPANY hasmore service!new buses!on time!!!!!!!!!!!!
STAGE COACH has old buses!not on time!!!!!!!!
So you know which is better!
