Johnny Cupcake

1. How did the Johnny Cupcakes brand originate?

Johnny worked at a record store when he was around 18. When he worked at the record store he was given a number of different nicknames one being Johnny cupcake. Johnny was also in a rock band and was making t-shirts for the band. At this time he started making t-shirts that had cupcakes on them. He sold the shirts from his car at first. His brand was becoming more and more popular he was able to open a store front. Now his company has many store fronts from Boston to LA with a diverse product line. His stores have a fake bakery theme that helps draw in people’s interest. You can also say it’s a family run business his mom is the CFO. She allows him to think freely this allows him to keep coming up with new ideas.

2. according to the information in the video, what does Earle say is an essential part of being an entrepreneur?

The most essential part of being an entrepreneur is taking risks. This is what make you an entrepreneur make something on your own. Starting you own company and making jobs for others. Another important thing that was said was “everything has been done before”. This makes it a little harder for you to come up with a competitive idea. Your goal is to figure out how to draw people’s attention to your product. Then make them want to buy your product. For an example Johnny spent almost 300k to set up his LA store. He went above and beyond to make is store stand out in a city were that very hard. Johnny understood that his store would have to make a statement for it to make it in such a competitive make place like LA. The cupcake t-shirt store was very detailed like an exhibit. They are stores that people want to just go and experience and buy something to remember that experience.

    When you establish a functional organizational structure, you are building a hierarchy based on the job role of each employee. Functional organizational structure groups together employees who work toward a common goal. For example, all of your marketing employees would be in the same group. Even if you only have two or three employees who fulfill the marketing role of your small business, you would structure it so one person is in charge, such as the vice president of marketing. His team would consist of a marketing manager and a public relations manager. The functional structure provides focus to the employees, because they know they are working toward a common goal. In this example, the common goal is marketing and promoting the business.…

    The 2 articles I had chosen are on Blackfish and Sea World. The first title is called SeaWorld Questions Ethics of ‘Blackfish’ Investigator. I always thought that there was no doubt in my mind that Sea World was a good place that was until the movie Blackfish came out. This first article is about questioning the ethics that the investigator used to gain his insight on the killer whales that he used for the movie. I feel like this is not a good creditable source because there are many bias issues at hand which tends to lean towards one side which in this article is Sea world. How I can to this decision is the facts at hand which Sea world is only showing their side at hand. To think one sided is very bias because they want the reader to think they are right. The article reveled to me that Sea World has something to hide when they can’t explain why they think that all the investigators information is wrong. With no substantial evidence and/ or qualified personnel.…
