2 pages of a marketing strategy

/in /by

It will be talking about marketing strategy for a brewing company in the US: New Glarus.  This project is about introducing this brewing company to Germany (International Business)  more specifically the beer Spotted Cow. New Glarus Brewing This is a group project but he only needs the MARKETING STRATEGY part.  I’ve attached the guidelines. The paper needs to be TWO pages.

Here is some ideas that  i came up with: 
I’d say we do a soft entry during the Euro 2016 tournament. This is when we would mainly go to pins around Munich and offer free samples (tasting) of the product just to raise awareness of our product. I would suggest a full launch for October 2016 during the Oktoberfest in Munich. We would showcase our product there and market it using social media. (Facebook Twitter and Xing are top three most popular in Germany) I will look up a few commercials as well and then of course billboards and bus stations.

Odogwu Casino, Inc.

Racquel and Danielle were shareholders in Odogwu Casino, Inc., which operated a casino in West Baltimore. Racquel owned 51 percent of the stock and Danielle owned 49 percent. Danielle managed the casino, which Racquel typically visited once a week. At the end of 2013, an accounting audit showed that the cash on hand was less than the amount posted in the casino’s books. Later, more shortfalls were discovered. In December 2014, Racquel, and her team of accountants, did a complete audit. Danielle was unable to account for $1,650,230 in missing cash. Racquel then kept all of the casino’s most recent profits, including Danielle’s $980,909 share. And, without telling Danielle, Racquel sold the casino for $5,400,000 and kept all of the proceeds. Discuss.

Assignment 1: Should the U.S. Convert to a Zero Personal Income Tax? 
Due Week 7 and worth 280 points

In a recent news article located at http://www.nbcnews.com/business/economy/heres-where-your-federal-income-tax-dollars-go-f654971, NBC News reported that the U.S. Government spends $3.6 trillion per year to fund Social Security, Medicare, homeland defense and safety, education, transportation, and the interest on debt obligations. In spite of the services and benefits that the government provides, many taxpayers dread paying income taxes but consider them a necessary evil. Consequently, there is much debate about the inequities contained within the tax code, due to tax shelters and tax credits provided to some taxpayers which thereby increase the tax burden on others. 

Using the Internet or Strayer Library, research at least two (2) countries that have a zero income tax rate.

Write a four to five (4-5) page paper in which you:

  1. Analyze the way in which the two (2) countries that you have researched provide services and benefits to its citizens without collecting personal income taxes.
  2. For the countries that you have chosen, determine whether or not the U.S. could adopt their taxation model without reducing its total amount of revenue generated by collecting personal income taxes from individuals and business. Justify your response.
  3. Suggest at least three (3) advantages and three (3) disadvantages of the U.S. adopting a zero income tax model. Provide a rationale for your response.
  4. Create a proposal for where the revenue would be derived if the U.S. were to adopt a zero income tax model. In your response, provide specific recommendations concerning the following:
    1. The proposed tax base.
    2. Whether or not tax payers at certain income levels should be exempt from taxation.
    3. The primary way in which the IRS would calculate the tax rate in order to ensure that the same level of tax revenue would still be collected.
    4. The primary way in which your plan will achieve equity.
  5. Speculate on the primary way in which the federal government could make up any shortfalls if it does not collect its targeted revenue from personal income taxes, and ascertain the most significant way in which the U.S. Department of the Treasury, through the IRS, can still adhere to its fiscal and monetary policies. Justify your response.
  6. Use at least four (4) quality academic resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and other Websites do not quality as academic resources.

Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

  • Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
  • Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:

  • Examine the types of taxes imposed at the federal, state, and local levels; the federal tax formula; and the rules for arriving at personal and dependency exemptions.
  • Analyze the concepts of gross income and distinguish between the economic, accounting, and tax concepts of gross income and strategies to minimize gross income, maximize deductions, and minimize disallowance of deductions
  • Use technology and information resources to research issues in federal taxation.
  • Write clearly and concisely about federal taxation using proper writing mechanics.

Answer 2 history related questions out of following 4 questions, which is attached with it

/in /by

Write the answer of two questions out of four (each 3 pages long double spaced) and 1 page detailed outlines for each question. Please follow the following instructions:

Be sure to draw on all relevant material from written lectures 7-13, John Lauritz Larson’s The Market Revolution and Bruce Levine’s Half-Slave and Half-Free

Instructions for your outlines

Outlines must be no more than one typed page per each question. Outlines must be in outline form; finished prose is not acceptable. Be sure to include quotes from the two books in your outlines.

Answer two of the following questions.

1. Explain the interconnections between the rise of capitalism as the dominant mode of production in the North and the following social, political, and cultural changes: a) majority rule becoming the principle for decision-making; b) why political parties come to be recognized as the most effective way of maintaining majority rule democracy; c) full rights of citizenship being given to virtually all white men; d) being a productive member of society becoming the meaning of a good citizen. (Lectures 7, 8, and 9)

2. This question has two parts. First, explain how Americans came to accept political parties as not only legitimate, but as essential to democracy (this should be about half of your essay). Then go on to analyze the Second Party system. In answering this second part, make sure you address the following questions: a) the differences between the Whig and the Democratic parties; b) how each party was able to gain the support of its various constituencies; c) how the Second Party system helped alleviate social conflict. (Lecture 10)

3. Write an essay in which you show how the cultural, institutional, and ideological changes taking place over the first half of the nineteenth century in the North – as reflected in the Second Great Awakening and reform movements – are related to the rise of a market economy. Make sure you address the growing belief in moral and material progress – and even human and social perfectibility. Be sure, also, to discuss the new social imperative to encourage maximal productivity. (Lecture 11)

4. Write an essay in which you discuss slavery from the point of view of both slaves and slaveholders. Be sure to address the following points: a) how and why many antebellum slaveholders came to practice a so-called “paternalism” in their relationship with their slaves; b) what this treatment meant in practice for the slaves; c) the various ways that paternalism served to promote the interests of the slaveholding class; d) why paternalism was required to protect slavery against the destructive and destabilizing forces of capitalism and democracy; e) the ways in which slaves were able to resist the oppression directed at them and ultimately shape their own lives. (I would expect that you would spend more space on answering this last part than you would on the first four parts of the question. (Lectures 12 and 13)

Hey everyone!

My name is Kathy! I am a health and wellness major in my first semester here at Ashford. I am working on my second degree here because I have had a complete change of heart for my future goals! Currently I do the marketing for a wholesale casket company (we sell directly to funeral homes/crematories, not to families).

My first degree is actually in history (which has little to do with marketing, but hey, life happens)! I started my marketing career in an art gallery, but we were forced to close with COVID-19 and I was offered a position with the casket company that I just couldn’t say no to. My long term goal is to open a yoga studio, where I can also also offer health and wellness suggestions for anyone who is interested. I am in the process of getting my yoga teacher certification but I felt that I should have some other credentials as well, so here I am!

I am excited about this class because I feel as though it’s going to be incredibly beneficial and vital information for me on a personal level with achieving my future goals.

I would describe myself as an animal lover, a selenophile (a person who loves the moon), and spiritual.

I currently have 8 rescue animals (dogs, cats, and guniea pigs) in my little one bedroom, downtown townhouse because I just can’t say no to an animal in need. I have been vegan for most of my life and I dislike spending time indoors. I am outside every chance I get! I like walking my dogs barefoot and I live a very natural lifestyle. I live in downtown Frederick, MD right now, so I very much look forward to the day that I can get out of the city and have more space to let my fur babies roam (and to take in more animals haha)! My boyfriend and I are currently looking for a place to purchase that has a small home and lots of land.

In my free time, I enjoy painting, reading, yoga, meditation, hiking, gazing at the stars, gardening, and just being creative in general. My parents joke that I am “bad at being a millennial” because I don’t have a TV (it’s not that I just don’t have cable, I don’t even have a physical TV in my home), I don’t have a microwave, I don’t have WiFi at home, and I don’t have Facebook (but I do have Instagram). Hard to believe I am actually pretty good at marketing!

I am looking forward to getting to know all of you as well and I can’t wait to take on the educational journey with everyone! Congrats to you all on taking steps to achieve your dreams. (:

Good morning classmates!

My name is Tiana and I am currently studying for my Bachelor of Arts in Health and Wellness. I would like to become a health coach. I am originally from Colorado, but I currently work as a laboratory technician for a large lab in Kansas City. I am very excited to move into the preventative side of medicine and focus more on a holistic approach. I find a lot of value in medicine but have taken a liking to a whole systems approach. I have worked in medicine for over ten years from the ICU to ER and now I am in the lab. I enjoy solving the puzzles and helping to achieve diagnoses through results.

If I had to describe myself in three words, I would say spontaneous, determined, and curious. I am always reading new materials on studies and diseases. I find the body so intriguing. I love to travel, and I am always up for any sort of adventure. When I was living in Colorado we would always be in the mountains or at the lake. I am determined when it comes to my education and am looking very forward to studying and learning new ways to approach the human body, and to help prevent diseases.

Envision that you work for a major, nationwide accounting firm. Your firm has many openings, and wants to recruit the most qualified accounting students. You’ve been asked to help recruit talent at several local universities. You begin the recruiting process with many of these accounting students via Facebook and LinkedIn. Once you have identified high-potential recruits, you organize several social events to get to know them better. You also hold several informative sessions about what it’s like to work at your firm and about what career paths are available. Since so many other firms are competing for the top recruits, the presentation about opportunities at your firm is critical. You want to make sure that your presentation is organized for maximum impact.

Use the six identified parts of a presentation to record a 2- to 3-minute video of yourself delivering a recruiting presentation. Remember that your target audience consists of potential employees right out of college, so you should tailor your presentation to appeal to topics that will be of interest to these recruits.

Include the following in your presentation:

  • Introduce your organization (history, specific business focus, background, etc.).
  • Present the various career opportunities available within your organization.
  • Provide examples of various ways to advance and get promoted within the organization.
  • Specify benefits provided by the organization that can attract recruits fresh out of college (continued education, professional development, employee training, tuition assistance, etc.).
  • Demonstrate how the organization has been adopting technology and training employees.
