Group Project Experience

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vt4KAK-ATrw

The experiences I had working in this advertising group were learning that it is beneficial to make a time management schedule to get certain things down by certain days. That would have made things a lot easier. But other than that it was an overall good experience. It was fun to come up with the different ideas and put them into action and see what worked and what didn't.

Something I have learned about advertising after this experience is that it's not as easy at looks. It takes a lot more than one idea to gain attention about what you are advertising about. We figured out that hanging fruits on trees and having people look at them was not successful, but then thought of the idea to make signs that read "honk if you like bananas" on one sign and on the other we put a fact about bananas, and then stood on the side of the road and had people honk at us. That idea worked a lot better. This project has overall helped with my time management skills in that next time I will set dates for things to be done by.
