Prices On shoes

We saw a video on shoes and whats the difference between a pair of 150$ shoe an a less expensive shoe and is the more expensive shoe any better because of the value. The NBA player Marbury talked about his shoe which is at a low price and his shoe was compared to Nikes Jordan shoes an to see if theirs really a difference in the quality. It turned out their wasnt really that much od a difference between the shoe. This NBA player came up with this idea because he as a kid didnt have the money to buy sneakers. So he came up with this thimking of those familys who are in the same situation he once was. People would buy the expensiev just because everybody thinks its a fashion statement and its soemthimng you want not need. I buy fashion based on the clothes that I aleady have an see if they would go togehter.

We are studiyng market information management (MIM) in my marketing class. (MIM) is gathering different information on the product you are trying to sell and improving it. Today we had focus group acrtivity thats when a group of people get together and share ideas on things. Today we had an activitie where three different sodas in front of us without us knowing what kind they were. So we drank them an then decided which one was our favorite an then we were told what actual sodas they were. Ant theris this video I found of a focus group. Its characters who are giving their opinion on a new line of car being brought out.
