After missing in action for so long,we are back! On 18th June 2012,the four of us went down to the company to take some pictures of the various products that are available in the shop. The pictures that we took will be uploaded to facebook and twitter on a regular basis. We are not able to record down the prices of the products and different types of repair services as the boss is not free at that point of time. Sebastian will go to company on another day to retrieve the product price list.

Preparation for Report

Hi groupmates & teacher! Hahaha. :p

Ok so today (29th April) i went to the TT Mobile Communications outlet to have another talk with the boss.
I've questioned/interviewed him about the given questions stated in the Practical 2 pdf file, and have successfully collected all required information as well as some screenshots of the shop.
I will be working on the report tomorrow and hopefully i can complete it before the end of Labour Day so we can all concentrate on studying :P
Can my lovely group mates help me think of some marketing strategies to help work for them? I will be needing it in 1-2 days time.
Help me okay!

My experience (GAB)

On 21st Febuary,i went to the neighborhood salon for my haircut. It is located at Woodlands Avenue 1,Street 13,block 171. From what i have observed during my past haircut appointments,i realised that there are many teenagers have their haircut there too. So i decided to ask the shop owner,Auntie Wendy,whether they have a facebook page. They replied me that they do not have but they were thinking of opening one back then. They told me that they do not the time to update or maintain it as they are very tired after work. Moving on,i explained what is the project about for them and asked them whether they would want to let us create a facebok page for them.

Their concerns:
 What if there is someone who ask us about hair related topics,will we able to answer them?

*I told them in this case,i can restrict the people from commenting and just allowing them to like the  page and view the uploaded pictures in the future. By then,they started to be very interested for the project therefore i chatted with them by introducing what we going to do in the facebook page such as taking "BEFORE and AFTER" of customer's hair and upload to the page,etc. Finaly they agreed and i told them that i cannot comfirm anything yet as i have to discuss with my group members and decide on which company to work on.

The whole conversation took about 20 mins,it was an enticing experience.

TT Mobile Communications

On 21st April 2012,
I contacted a company named 'TT Mobile Communications' for the SMM Projectwork.
I explained the details of the project work and what we are going to do like creating a Facebook page for them, etc.
They have agreed to aid us with our project work by cooperating with us.
They have already said that they do not own a Facebook page yet and have agreed to let us create and manage the page for them.

    Factors leading to success :
    - The owner is a friend of my father.
    - They do not own a Facebook page.
    - This project is like a free advertisement for them.
    - Good communication.

The whole conversation took about 10 minutes.
My group and I have already confirmed their choice of the company to work on, which is 'TT Mobile Communications'.

    Company Details,
    - Company Name: TT Mobile Communications

Experience on find company to work on.

Just last Sunday (22th April). Jun Hong and I met up at Bugis Junction at around 2pm, hoping to fish out some small companies for us to work on. We were rejected three times so we changed our location to Bugis Street where all the small fashion stores are set up there. Still to no avail, so this time I went to approach a store that sells phones accessories. After speaking to the owner for 10minutes telling her what our course module is about and asking for a partnership, she was happy to lend us a hand at the same time she wanted to do this to boost her sales. After both of us got in contact with both companies, we went back to discuss with our leader and members. In all, its a fruitful experience.

My experience~


 On 22nd April 2012, I went to Bugis street to look for shops. Around 2.45pm, I found a shop which sells IT accessories, called E-Max. I approach the owner of the shop and told him about our Project regarding about Social Media Marketing. After talking for 5mins, the Owner finally agreed. Basically, I explain to him what our objective of this project is. I told him that we will help him promote his products by creating a facebook page which will increase awareness about his shop. Amazingly, he agree to work with us without any hesitation.
