My answer 3

• EQ 
• How can a restaurant manager ensure a profit while maintaining customer satisfaction?
• Answer #3 (Write in a complete sentence like a thesis statement)*
• In order for a restaurant manager to ensure a profit while maintaining customer satisfaction will be by advertising. 
• 3 details to support the answer
• Smart advertising helps develop a good reputation for your restaurant and it reaches out to consumers who otherwise might never hear of you. 
• It reminds all your current and new customers that you are still there, open for business, and that you are ready to continue business with them. 
• The profit you make off of your customers is what determines if you r business will keep on going or not, and the more customers you have the bigger profit you make. 
• The research source(s) to support your details and answer
• Hamlett Christina. "Why is advertising so important to Business"?. Chron. n.d. Web. March 2, 2016.
• Mack Stan. "Importance of Advertising". Chron. n.d. Web. March 2, 2016. 
• Concluding Sentence
• You always want the best for your business and the only way you will be able to succeed is by making profit. But you you don't have any customers, then you will not make any money. Which is why you need to advertise, it reaches out to new incoming customers which can lead you to earning more money. 

Blog 12 - Holiday Project Update

It's not at all like this during holidays. Got to work harder. 

1.  It is important to consistently work on your senior project, whether it is break or we are in school.  What did you do over the break with your senior project?

• Over break I went only a couple of times which was to help organize bills, but to also help my mentor organize a Christmas party for the workers. I helped her with the visual decorations of the party, but also helped her decide on the gifts, and food being given to the employees for their hard work.

2.  What was the most important thing you learned from what you did, and why?  What was the source of what you learned?

• I learned that organizing a special event isn't always the easiest because you try to please everyone as best you can because as manager you need to know how to give a little bit of something to everyone. For example our house Christmas party. We have to try and please everyone's needs. I honestly learned to communicate well with others with the help of not only my mentor but everyone who works there. I get experience with talking to the customers and trying to do as much as I can with the staff.

3.  Your third interview will be a 10 question interview related to possible answers for your EQ. Who do you plan to talk to and why?

• I plan to get two sides of the story hopefully. A managers view of how to manage a restaurant and an employers view of how they believe a restaurant should be managed. If I am not able to interview these two people I will definitely interview the manager of a family friend's restuarant. 

Title: Blog 1 – Senior Final Lesson/Interview Reflection

1. What three lessons were most helpful for you to see, and why?
      - The Clinical Psychology one helped me see that the activities you do with the students don't have to be simple hands on activities, but you can communicate with the audience the whole time to keep them engaged.
      - The Nursing one helped me think of ideas to keep your audience focused, and some things to do is play short videos, and have hands on activities. Taking props to your presentation.
      - Imagineering helped me because he showed us a way to keep everyone focused, and by having interest in your topic others will see how cool your topic can be.

2. List one thing that you learned about the senior project in interviews that will help you get off to a good start?

      - "You should start finding mentors in different professions right away because that way you can simply chose the mentor that fits into your topic the best".
      - "You should start your articles right away because they are a pain if you procrastinate".

3. What topic(s) are you considering, and why?

      - Business Management
      - Teaching kids with disabilities

4. What EQ do you think might be interesting to consider in guiding a project like this? (Please don't worry about any sort of formula...we want this question to come from your genuine interest).

5. What are some ideas you have about finding summer mentorship?
