AT&T has agreed to buy T-Mobile USA from Deutsche Telekom for 39 billion dollars.
The stocks will raise and already dramatically improved. Sadly, for the customers the prices will most likely go up. The strength and stability of the company will raise and be stronger than ever. Apple will gain popularity since it is already partners with AT&T, it will be joining with T-Mobile also.

Social Media Marketing
1. I think social media marketing is the advertising of a product or business in social environments in order to gain the business customers and popularity.
2. It is not only important, but essential for businesses to use social media marketing so they can gain popularity to eventually expand and gain more business.

Chapter 8 # 17 & 18
17.) I agree with the statement that Michael Eisner said, because I am a firm believer that you can learn from your mistakes. Many people are scared of failure, and that sometimes holds them back. Instead of being scared of failing and making a mistake, you should be encouraged to try new things and put everything you have out on the board, cause who knows, it might actually work. Many people don't try things because they're scared to fail, and that holds them back from being successful. I strongly agree with this statement because you have to fail somewhere in order to be successful.
18.) Inspiring people who work for you is a really good idea. Many people do not like their boss, therefore they don't like doing work for them. If they are inspired to do better, they will most likely do more quality work. If you don't encourage them and they aren't motivated, they might not do their tasks with quality work or meet your expectations. Leaders delegate because they want their employees to be the best they can be because it ultimately reflects on them.

2. The overall purpose of management is to plan, organize, lead, and control.
3. Planning - the act or process of creating goals and objectives.
Organizing - getting the resources arranged in an orderly and functional way.
Leading - providing direction
Controlling - operation means keeping the company on track and making sure goals are met.
4. Formal Structure - Departmentalization divides responsibility among specific unis, or departments.
Informal Structure - Does not need a lot of managers
5. Task-oriented, organizer, problem solver, human relations skills, communicate well, and have time-management skills.
6. Planning is what gets everything going, and most situations nothing ever goes well unless it is planned first.
7. Yes, the point of planning, organizing, leading, and controlling is to make sure everything runs smoothly and to account for any changes that might happen. You plan so you see those changes coming and adapt to them.
8. They have to do the job that the middle manager was doing. There is more work for them and they have to be on top of what the middle manager used to do. So their jobs changed because it added more tasks to their agenda.
9. It makes the managers job less stressful and takes a little bit of the pressure off them. Having some input on what the workers think is not only helpful, its smart too because the workers are the ones who really know what their talking about from experience.
10. Formal Business - The management is divided among people, therefore the pressure isn't all on one person and it is shared. Informal- You only need one manager in a smaller business, therefore you can handle everything yourself without consulting people with your every move.
11. Task oriented, knows how to use time wisely, nice, responsible, over-achiever, hard worker, has goals, problem solver, people person, very organized, and communicates well.
12. They talk about the problem too much and focus and spend too much time on it, therefore it becomes more of a problem then it actually is. Something with an easy solution can be over analyzed because of the different view points of it.
13. There is too much for the manager to handle, therefore he might want some help in the management department and change the company into a departmentalization where everyone shares the management responsibilities.
14.An entrepreneur and a manager basically share the same responsibilities of planning, leading, organizing, and controlling. They have to do the same things to keep their businesses running smoothly. The only major difference is that an entrepreneur does not have to control anyone else but himself and a manager has a lot of people to watch.
16. Reasons why managers are hired within a company is that the person was once working there, so they have an inside idea on what needs to change and what needs to be improved,and also what needs to stay the same. Reasons of why managers are hired outside of a company are that the company wants somebody new and refreshing to handle all of the management tasks. Almost like someone with an outside opinion with no bias.
19. I believe it is fair that managers are receiving hirer wages than the workers they manage. They may not be doing more physical labor, but they are doing a lot. They run the entire place, and without the manager, the employees might not be doing there jobs in the first place.
21.I would talk to the employee because it is my job to make sure everyone is doing their job correctly, and tell him how important it is to be doing his job. I would let him know if he continues to not do his job, he will lose it. I would let the President know what had happened too.

17. For an English major, courses such as Introduction to Literary Studies, one English course before 1800, one English course after 1800, a major authors class, and a Senior Capstone Seminar are all required at Houghton College in order to maintain an English Major.
29. Statistics!
Basically after reading this, I realized that this career is really not worth is because most of these jobs are becoming less and less available. As the technology field grows, more computers are editing the work so there is not jobs for the human editor, only journalism and actual writing jobs. Also, i will only get paid in big city areas. Rural tiny towns will not get paid much. I would be lucky to get a job in such a high end place.

Coke Questions
1.Coke's bottle is made out of recycled plastic unlike other bottles, coke is focused on going green just like our generation and by doing their part they believe it will boost their sales.
2. Coke is asked every year if they created Santa Clause, because of his colors and he is used in their advertising.
3. It was based on a popular fashion in the 1990's, and Coke felt they needed something new.
4. It was popular but then the "classic coke" took over again.
5. 20.5% market share.
6. They can sell coke in more places and it is transportable. also, you can take the bottle in to recycle and get some money for it.
7. It was sold as only a fountain soda, which means you could only get it on tap at like restaurants or bars.
8. Pepsi owns a majority of the bottleing companies.
9. This machine could help coke by letting them know which products of theirs are selling the best, and which are selling the least. That is something really important for a companies to know, and this machine is basically doing all of Coke's market research for them. I believe the coke freestyle is trying to fit in with our generation, with everything being about choice and variety and being high-tech.
