    Since opening in a suburb of a major metropolitan area two years ago, Pablo’s Pepper Pizza has consistently had a huge line of customers waiting for a table. Pablo, the owner, attributes this to his strong belief that customers are entitled to high quality food at inexpensive prices. His brand promise is to consistently create a fun, family-oriented environment centered around great food that won’t break the budget. This idea is demonstrated at many different touchpoints with customers. Parents can enjoy the $5.00 all-you-can-eat pizza and salad buffet while watching the game on the television screen. Kids receive a complimentary activity book along with a packet of crayons and unlimited trips to the dessert bar stocked with fruit, pizza, and cookies. From time to time, Pablo even personally invites the children to watch the pizzas being made through a glass window. The employees seem to enjoy this as much as the children do, especially when the children smile as the pizza dough is tossed high into the air. It’s a good thing, too – a friendly attitude is stressed at weekly staff meetings. During this time, Pablo also reminds the cooks to keep a fresh supply of a variety of pizzas on the buffet line, and he instructs the bussers to quickly clear dirty plates from the tables. All this must be working because the place is still packer!…

    Brand Comparison

    Both Bentley and Rolls-Royce is the best hand-made luxury car, British manufacturer and they all have the Royal Blood. The reason why I choose these brands to compare is they divided to two companies from 2003. In 1998 to 2002, these two brands are managed by both VW and BMW. From 2003, VW owned the Bentley Motors and Crewe factory, BMW owned the Rolls-Royce Motors and relocated the factory to Goodwood (Cowell, 1998). Bentley has the truly legend craftsmanship and became the Royal-official-car instead of Rolls-Royce (Cupler, 2012). Then it began to expand the producing capacity and also the models, it has new design for every models but continue hand-made. It keeps step-up in ECO area, created the mobile apps for cars and still focused on sporty-luxurious cars in the future (Volkswagen Annual Report, 2011). Rolls-Royce lost its legend craftsmanship and relocated the factory, but it hired new craftsmen to keep the quality and new design for every series. It also focused on exclusive driver training and electronic luxury cars in the future ( BMW Annual Report, 2011).…

    I would like to begin by saying that I am honored to be a nominee for membership into the 2013 Senior Honor Society of York College of Pennsylvania. I take passion in my academic studies and my community involvement. The opportunity to be recognized for the impact I have made on my college and local community is truly flattering. After spending my first two years at Millersville University, I began my studies at York College in my third year of college as a junior. Living in Spring Grove, I made the decision to live at home, work a part-time job, and commute to York College. These factors are all things that could have impacted my campus-life involvement, but I was determined to not let these factors impact my college experience. I jumped head first into the York College Community and was accepted with open arms into whatever groups I wanted to become affiliated with on campus.…

    The Brand Report Card, devise d by Kevin L. Keller, is a tool for assessing a brand’s performance by rating brands along ten key traits that Keller believes are shared by the world’s strongest brands. Strong brands possess very high brand equity and the Brand Report Card is one tool to help identify things the brand is doing well and areas for improvement. When done on competitive brands, the Brand Report Card can tell us how our brand measures up to the competition. In this paper I apply the Brand Report Card to The Home Depot and its largest rival Lowe’s, after first describing myself as a shopper.…

    1. What are the main sources of equity for the brand? Brand equity helps the customers to recognize the brand among other brands quickly and to simplify the buying decision process. It is the differential effect of brand knowledge on consumer responses to the marketing of a brand. The two components of Brand equity are Brand awareness and Brand image. The main goal is to make sure that the way the consumer perceives the brand and the way the brand owner defines what the brand stands for overlap as much as possible. EasyJet derives the most from the perceived quality. “The perceived quality refers to; A customer’ opinion of a product’ value to him or her. It may have little or nothing to do with the product’s market price and depends on the product’s availability to satisfy his or her needs or requirements”1 Easyjet is really focusing on this aspect because they are expanding and they are already flying to 129 destinations mainly in Europe. The second source is loyalty, they try to exceed or meet the passengers expectations to make sure they will fly with EasyJet. They control whether the passengers enjoyed their flights by sending a questionnaire to the passenger several days after they have flown with EasyJet.…

    In my opinion I believe that the miller lite characters in the "beer commercial" are categorized as mens men . This is my opinion because I feel that the intended targeted audience for beer commercials are men. The message that this commercial is sending is that only "real men" care about the taste in beer and "real men" choose miller lite. The woman that is playing the role of the bartender responds to the fact that the male character is caring something similar to a purse. A purse is a symbol of a woman. By the woman bartender seeing the male character carry this carrier , she responded by implying that he might be homosexual ,therefore does not drink a "manly beer" or care for the taste of one either. This also sends a message that women…
