The $100 challenge is going along well. I have created my first designs, and I hope to be able to start advertising this week or next. I’m getting excited to see what The Stickr Company can do. I have high hopes and really think this concept can generate the revenue and profit I need in order to get a good grade in this class and help others in need. I am going to be pushing that the profits go to a good cause in hopes that it will help motivate others in their purchase.
This week in class we learned about how Zappos would offer their new hires $2000 to leave the company during training. They wanted only people who were motivated to stay with the company in their ranks. I was blown away with how few took the money. This was for entry level jobs in Las Vegas, and that money was no drop in the bucket for these people. In the video, they talked about how the company culture was so important and that customer service was a companywide trait. They wanted to make sure that everyone felt the same way about their company and that they could keep morale high and turnover low. I think this is a good example of planning with the end in mind.
