Post three

                It has been three weeks since the start of the outreach project. With the outreach ending in a two weeks and things are picking up speed. What’s going on with the marketing group is that we are still working on the commercial. We are indeed behind schedule and this is the biggest problem facing my group. Another thing is that our marketing group has split up into smaller groups so only a couple of people are working on the commercial. It seems like since we started making the commercial things have been going against us. Jalen and I would have finished it from the first day if the computer didn’t crash half-way into it. We also don’t have many chances to work on it since we don’t have any study halls in common so we have to work after school, but we can only work during on Tuesdays and Thursdays since on the other day the library closes early. The commercial is now almost done so I need to stop worrying about what happened and focus on what needs to be done. All we need to add is the music, yet we run into another problem. I don’t exactly know how to add the sad music we are looking for without using YouTube, but if I can get on YouTube I will be fine. I plan to work on it tomorrow in study hall and I hope it will be on announcements by Friday. As part of the marketing group I am aware with what’s going on with my group but because of bad communication I don’t really know how other groups are doing. What I do know so far is that so far we raised 90$ for Erin’s Dream, which I think is a good amount and that it’s better than nothing, yet it’s not great. We will raise more money once t-shirts become available; I was actually very impressed when I heard about the idea of selling t-shirts. Another thing I noticed was one of my friends who is doing the same project is selling. With the box being 15$, selling the candy for 1$ apiece, box having 30 pieces, he makes a 50% percent profit. I think our class should try it out and see how it goes. I don’t think it will be as effective now because I’m sure other classes are trying it but I don’t think I can hurt.
