Social Listening- Bath & Body Works

          Bath & Body Works is a pretty popular brand known for its good fragrances and body care. It seems people have been having problems with their car fresheners and house fresheners destroying paint or their dashes. It seams to leak out and then take off whatever paint or wood it sits on. On the bright side Bath & Body Works will pay for the damages but I would not recommend these to buy. An esthetician on TikTok also does not think their products are good for you either.

This also catches the viewer's attention because Brandon seems to love the ' whole lotta of bacon burger' which makes customers more interested in Applebees. The customer connection with the employee Brandon is also very intriguing because in my opinion when I go to a restaurant I w...

About Me:

    Here is a picture of me at the Goth Babe concert in Portland last summer.  I went with my best-friend an had an amazing experience.     Hi my name is Kimmy Betts, I am a 21 year old freshman at LBCC. I am a business major with the intent of making my own interior design business. I am taking this marketing class because it seems interesting to me and will give me a good idea in the future about how the marketing world works. I can also learn how I will be able to market my business in the coming years. My mom also runs her own small business that is making small intricate paper hot air balloons, and I would like to use the knowledge I get from this class to help her market her wonderful creations.       This is my return to college, I was formally at OSU campus in Bend as well as Corvallis. It feels refreshing to go to a community college that is so welcoming and helpful.      In my free time I like to go on coffee outings ...
