Our team is called the “Sweet Seven Teens” because we are seven teenagers and we produce sweet products like chocolates and refrigerated cake made from Graham.  We tried marketing a lot of products like banana chips, peanuts, hotcakes, quailed eggs in our effort to meet customer needs and wants.

I’ve learned a lot of things with my team through our subject in Sales Management. We were challenged to reach our marketing goal of Php 45,000 in sales.  We pursued our target customers and strove hard to reach our goal. I’ve learned that you have to be patient, honest, cooperative and have a good relationship with your customers , so that you will be successful in what you are doing and gain a lot of valued customers.

The members of our team are very cooperative and supportive to each other. We were not just sharing our ideas but we also listened to the opinion and suggestions of each other, and after the deliberations, we come up with a good concept.

Sometimes our ideas were in conflict and we have heavy arguments among each other on small things,  but later on, we settle our differences and move on. we are not just a “team”, we are also friends. We do believe that in business you have to have good interpersonal relationships with your customers in order to become a successful entreperneur someday.

I’m a 3rd year marketing student in the University of Caloocan City and one of the members of the group ‘El Kondensada Partnership.  I would like to share the lessons I learned about the marketing of our product.  I’d like to give thanks to my beloved instructor, Prof. Jaylord Pagadora, for giving us an opportunity to have a small business and having more friends outside our school.

In our marketing project, I’ve learned more things like communicating to different people who have different attitudes and how to win them over as our friends. I’ve also learned to cook and to package our product and serve it to our customers.

Before we can successfully market any product,  we have to ensure that our product can satisfy the needs, wants, and demand of our customers. We learned the mechanics of conducting a market research. We studied how customers choose a product from among those that exist in the market. After conducting our market research, we used the information we gathered to develop a product.

In this activity, I learned the importance of financing for our business undertaking, without which we would not have been able to produce our product and sell it in the market.
