Week 1

Topic 1- Who's who in BA223- Principles of marketing this term


I am a marketing major at Oregon State University. I have met and connected with other marketing people and from what I have taken away from talking with them is marketing sounds like something I would love and be good at doing. I chose to take this course because marketing is something I am very interested in and have been for awhile.
I am very interesting about learning the different kinds of marketing techniques used and how certain ones work better for certain companies. In addition to learning how marketing and sales go hand in hand and how both have to work together.
I got into business because both my parents are business people. My dad works for a large data center company as a sales agent, his biggest client right now is Oracle. He has given me a lot of advice and we talk about business all the time.
Some activities I do in my free time include hiking with my dogs, working on my internship at Sumo logic in addition to working at a sushi restaurant.
