$5 to artists.

In Hayao Miyazaki’s “Spirited Away,” what is the name of the theme song, who sings it, and what is the name of the instrument they play?

PROMOTION STRATEGIES:

Team Name: JESTERS
Task #: 4
Strategy:


Newegg.com is a nice place to buy computer parts, software, and other stuff online. Some successful marketing strategies employed on their website are:
1. "Daily Deals" are advertised on the very front page - they're presented in a graphically pleasing way and have extra-low prices, giving people the impression that newegg has a lot of neat stuff for cheap.
2. The search function is very thorough and offers popular "top picks" as well as the ability to sort by price. This makes things very convenient for the customer.
3. Newegg.com uses a ratings system for their products that is customer-submitted. Not only does this help people see potential problems with products before they buy, but it also gives the impression that newegg values its customer's opinions on the products it sells. That makes people feel good about doing business with them!


MIGHTYPUTTY.COM
1. Wow, this website is loud! They use big fonts and lots of exclamation points to excite the customer about their product.
2. There are commercial clips on the site, so people can share in the popularity of the product, as well as see how it works.
3. They provide "100% SECURE" online purchasing, so people know their transactions are safe!

Pizzahut.com
1. Whodathunk you could actually order pizza online! If you live in the right area, you can type your order and have it delivered to your door. How convenient is that?
2. You can enter a zip code and it will tell you the nearest pizza huts, along with their hours of operation, location, and the phone number you can call to order. This makes their product more accessible to folks.
3. There's a pretty menu, so you can visually see what the pizzas, chicken wings, and other sides look like before you order. That's cooler than calling on the phone!


Expedia.com
1. The first thing you see when you load the website is the face of a friendly operator. That makes you feel like you're dealing with a helpful person, even though it's only a website.
2. Top deals are advertised prominently on the top of the page. This tells the customer that Expedia has great prices!
3. The "featured" hotels section is very pleasing to look at and includes photos that really put you in the mood to travel to that destination (examples: palm trees in the sunset, or dolphins swimming!)

freecreditreport.com
1. Well well well.. guess who's on the front page? It's that fellow from the commercials! Someone must like that guy, certainly.. product recognition time!
2. The online form is short, simple, and easy to complete. That makes the process faster and less intimidating for people.
3. The language used is casual and understanding, not like some stodgy accounting firm at all. That makes "ordinary people" feel at ease.

BACKSTAGE ASSIGNMENTS

Team Name: Artists
Task # : 5
Assignment:

Quote:
Cripes! Someone’s costume ripped. In 200 words, explain what the costume is, where it was ripped, why it was ripped, and how you are going to repair it. Be creative!
Heaven brushes help us! Itsunas outfit has been ripped to shreds! It was such a good outfit, too. It was made with silks and patterned fabrics, rainbows and solids. Frills and silver sparkle lining! The outfit itself seemed like it was just as alive as any of us! Oh dear, oh dear! What to do!?

Itsuna just had bad luck, oh yes! Terrible luck! He backed up into a circus cart with many nails and got stuck like they were cactus! Oh my, oh my. We had to pull, we had to tug! Until his whole outfits backdoor came undone! It was hysterical, it was sad but at least no injury became of him! For a few seconds at least…

Even a sudden rabid outbreak from the zoo lead giraffes, zebras, and even penguins come stampeding through! Oh dear, oh my! They ran and ran like a race car derby like never before! And carried poor Itsuna into the dusty trail!

The seams of each side of the outfit started to unravel! The wondrous rainbows and solid colors started to disappear with the gust of dust! The silver lining started to dull, the sparkles seemed to die. Such terrible bad luck!

We ran, we chased. For all the good efforts in the world, we were late!
Itsuna was there, just standing. Naked in all! The only thing left of the outfit was none at all. Repairing it… such a fleeting idea.

But we scavenged, we scurried! We picked up all the pieces, the bits, the frills! We all teamed up together and with a long nights work, we repaired Itsunas outfit like new! And his smile grew and grew.

Oh joy, oh yay! Itsunas outfit shall live again today!
