MARKETING
The born salesperson
There’s no such thing as a born salesperson.
What there are… are people with empathy and learned charisma who choose to work hard.
If you show up and show up and show up, and care enough to learn to connect, you will have a skill for life.
In the meantime, consider getting yourself hooked on 30 minutes a day of audio that trains you to sell. It takes a while, but it’s learnable.
Zig Ziglar, Anthony Iannarino, Dan Pink, Brian Tracy, Frank Bettinger, Jill Konrath … anyone who will help you learn the long-game, the generous long game.

Murphy's Class-o-Rama
Day 1 - What would the world look like without Marketing?
1.01 Practice Questions
Class Discussion – Have the class discuss the Model T Ford and Henry Ford’s famous quip that customers could have any color they wanted…as long as it was black. Contrast with the way cars are marketed today.
1. How does the marketing differ?
2. How do consumers benefit from the changes that have taken place?
3. What business today still thinks with the Model T mentality?
Homework asking the students to write down 5 products they would have not purchased/owned if it had not been for Marketing.
Vocab 1.01
Vocab test This Friday, first 5 of class
AP Computer Science Principles
What is Apple, after all? Apple is about people who think 'outside the box,' people who want to use computers to help them change the world, to help them create things that make a difference, and not just to get a job done.
-Steve Jobs
Technology has forever changed the world we live in. We're online, in one way or another, all day long. Our phones and computers have become reflections of our personalities, our interests, and our identities. They hold much that is important to us.
-James Comey

Murphy will sort groups
<2 min="" timer=""> Each student teaches the group your area of expertise
Each individual's area of interest: (1 min)
- Identify some way that technology is used with, or affects that thing
- Make suggestions for either:
- a way that technology might be improved to make it better, faster, easier to use
- a creative or innovative new technology might help solve some problem within that area, or at least make it better?
Reflection piece on code.org
HW
- Select an innovation. Describe the positive and negative impacts it has had on the world.
- Speculate on how students 25 years from now will answer, "What computing innovation has had a significant impact on your life?"
- Think about how the adults in their lives might answer the question, "What computing innovation has had the most significant personal impact on your life?“ To reinforce visual learning, suggest that students create time-lines showing the years when the various innovations they hear about from other adults were invented or became available to consumers.
- Blown to Bits http://www.bitsbook.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/B2B_3.pdf - read Chapter 4, Needles in the Haystack, pages 141-142 (Placements, Clicks, and Auctions), then answer the following question about innovation:
- Discuss the positive and negative results of Overture's three search engine innovations. How did those innovations turn out today?.

1.2 Sending Binary Messages
1.2 Powerpoint
Binary Message Devices - Activity Guide
Rubric - Binary Communication
Ask:
- There was something in between you and your partner?
- You couldn’t see your partner?
- You were in a loud room?
- Your partner wasn’t paying attention?
Other iterations
- Could you use another group’s device to send your set of messages? Why or why not? What would you need to know from the other groups?
- Based on what you've seen in today's activity what do you think are the limitations on the kinds of information we can send with binary messages?
- Give an example of a question that can't be answered with a binary message. Change the way the question is asked to make it a binary question.
Message Length Limitations: the length of a message limits the number of things you can represent as binary states. Anything that doesn't map easily or obviously to discrete states would be hard or impossible to represent.*------
