Marketing Mix Applied

My company will produce specialty sports items specifically geared towards baseball and softball but we will produce other sports items we think we can make money on. Our competitor is Rawlings.
  • My product will be made from higher quality leather and will be shipped out with glove oil for free so you can take care of your glove, our bats will be made of high quality composite and will have 1 year warranty’s, wood bats will be boned and ready for use out of the box. Other sports apparel will be of good quality materials and will have return policies of around a month.
  • The prices of my products that are listed below or slightly lower than rawlings giving you a higher quality product on the field and more money in your pocket.
           Gloves- $50 for cheap gloves made for teeball or entering little league
                        $200 for pro style gloves made from high quality leather
                        $300 for custom built gloves
                        $450 for premium italian leather gloves made for the pros.

Boston Olympics

My opinion on Boston being turned down for the Olympics is that it is wrong and we should been able to host them. One of the examples I think really stands out is the vibe. Boston is a great city and the people here are awesome, but if we hosted an Olympic games there would lots more people in the city to talk and hang out with and people would be happy and excited for the upcoming events. I believe the city would be way happier if we hosted an Olympics. My second reason we should have hosted the Olympics is that it would force the city to clean up and messes or projects the city has created and never finished. The city would be cleaner, the air would be fresher and the people would be happier, Boston should have hosted the Olympics.
