Business Model Presentation and Thesis

My original goal for this month was to learn how to present my business model.  After months of preparing open slides and creditable information for the final presentation, my instructors were able to accommodate me with the proper guidance. Their help is greatly appreciated! So thus far, throughout the program, explainer videos were created that pertained to my venture, which helped me be comfortable with presenting my business model.  There I learned to be quick, precise and accurate. Creating a video that was no longer than 2 minutes but having enough information that will satisfy the curiosity of the audience was a slight bit challenging but worth while. It was an amazing experience and I look forward to implementing that skill into my next venture, which happens to be my launching of a fitness apparel line.

Overall the goal was met through the criteria of the coarse. I learned to narrow down information that was elaborate but straight to the point. This is in relation to the whole explainer video assignment that we had in the program. I also learned to properly present my business. This was done by having the amount of information per side, a side script that needed to study that helped the flow of the presentation and the pictures to support to information that was given. With everything that was learned in this coarse and throughout the program I’m aiming to apply the proper steps and putting the right of effort into things that are beneficial rather taking up my time that I will never get back.  Thanks for reading my Mastery Journey.

Business Model Implementation and Management

                                      Mastery Journal

The original goal for this coarse was to learn how to manage. It’s a little shocking to know that you established those goals 10 months ago, to finally being in the class and realizing that your goal was met. This goal actually plays a role in the topic that I’ve decided to discuss in this assignment. This assignment ask of us to prepare a meaningful post on a important topic that occurred this month. Being that it was so many I have to do my best to narrow it down to the one I felt contributed the most to my perspective and learning. So without further or do, let me bring to you Leadership Traits.

This was an assignment where you were able to read an article of the most relevant facts pertained to you. Here in this article it gave you several different styles that elaborated precisely on what that style is, and depending upon the information you perceived, you chose rather you fit under that style or not. The leadership styles were Coercive leaders; who demanded immediate compliance—Authoritative Leaders; who are people who mobilize people towards a vision—Affiliative leaders; which create emotional bonds and harmony— Democratic’s build consensus through participation—Pacesetting who expect excellence and self direction and lastly, coaching leaders who develop people for the future. Out of the six styles, I determined that the Authoritative style fit me the most. This style title leaders as mobilizing people to a vision. I can speak from awareness, observation and being told that I typically encourage those to always be the best you can be and work towards anything that make you happy! We must achieve greatness in this lifetime, understanding that’s the purpose of life!

The goal was met by the assignments that accompanied it. Reading that article and determining what leadership style trait I have. I was able to really understand how to vision my venture. So much have been learned from this coarse that it’s little short stamped to try and discuss all of it. As I stated above you can say that I learned the leadership style and know how to execute based on the description is what I learned from this coarse. Knowing the style I fall under, I’m going to apply them profession by simply actioning the description of the leadership style. Thinks for reading my post!

My original goal for this coarse was learning how to locate areas that I would be able to work passionately in. Over the coarse of this program I have learned and understood how a working environment should be.This goal was met simply by the readings, articles, and videos provided by instructor. It really changed my perspective on working environment designs. Businesses today no longer take the traditional setup route, they take the “how can you be at the office, but feel like you never left home” route. They learned that employees try to find outside sources to really perform or complete their work. They work on public commutes such as trains and buses. They work in an extra room at home that usual involves a basement. Then they work at libraries hoping the quietness would motivate them to work more efficiently. The only thing about the outsources is that they share the same thing as the office space at work, having distractions. Now, business go on a limb to help their employee work more efficiently at work than at home.

They provide lounging space for employees whenever they may need leisure. Taking breaks avoid fatigue and helps productivity. Next they have at-home kitchens that give off the aesthetics or being at home. Most of the time the kitchen is filled with home goods and products. They then add meeting space that are now separated by furniture or some type of decadents. That way the employees can still be apart of the life that’s around them. Everything do now is to keep employees from feeling like they’re obligated to come to work. Only now they come to work and enjoy it!

What’s crazy is that I’ve already taken what I learned from this class, before actually taking this class. I have a home studio that I had issues working in it. I knew where the issue was coming from, just have attacked the plan yet. But when I began to make alterations to the space I began to see a new sense of inspiration driving my wanting to be in there. I decided to paint the studio Island Orange and Mat Black. I figured the vibrant colors will help with my creativity, but also uplift my spirits. Study show that colors can affect a person mood! Rather it’s a good mood or a bad one. That’s I chose vibrant colors so that I can be in a good mood. Thanks for reading my post!

Believe it or not most people believe that health and fitness starts in the gym. But if you check the records, read all the professional health and fitness magazines, 80 percent of that change starts in the kitchen! That’s why I make it my business to meal prep every week! Following a strict diet where it’s called intermittent fasting, around 7am I drink 16oz of water following a meal after 12pm. Now that equation might change depending upon the variables in it. If the week calls for my intense workout regimen then 16oz of water, some sort of energy restoring meal, to feed that metabolism, boost those gains, a meal after 12pm then one at 5pm will dictate the lifestyle change. So eat healthy, find some great recipes, it’ll spark you day! #healthylifestyle #physicalactivity #healthandwellness #healthandfitness #cuttingthosecarbs #earningthosegains #gymmotivation #healthmotivation #lifestylechange

Traven Wells Full Sail University Mastery Journal June 24, 2018

It has been a pleasure to be apart of an experience that will continue to shape me into the person I want to be. Rather it’s on how businesses succeed or rather it’s how to fail and over achieve the obstacles. The Marketing Strategies for Entrepreneurs class has shown me how to do so. It gave me a whole new perspective of what it means to pivot and innovate. For instance, truly understanding the roots of branding. First thing first—Branding is what you are! As Dean Westergaard stated “Your brand isn’t what you sell or do, but it’s what you believe.” (Westergaard, 2013, para.3). At the end of the day, we’re all brand builders. Regardless of your job title or description, if you interact with customers or participate in any part of promoting, developing, or delivering your organization’s products and services you are a part of creating the gestalt experience that creates your brand (Westergaard, 2013, para.3).

Secondly, marketing is what you do. Marketing is the “total of activities in the transfer of goods from the producer or seller to the consumer or buyer, including advertising, shipping, storing, and selling.” (Westergaard, 2013, para.5). Marketing has taking new routes to getting a product to the consumer and it’s our job to do so! Lastly, selling is what you say. Not too much of an feeling when selling but more so of a gesture and a ‘do so. It’s how we document if our business or service is facilitating the issues the consumers once had. So always be on the close look out for this!

But the original goal for this month class was to “Use social med more to sell myself.” How I was going to accomplish this goal was by reading Green’s Mastery book. The pages that would best fit the learning experience, but the goal was met by the given assignments this class had given this month. I learned the true definition of branding as I stated above. The key thing of in-taking all of this information is to utilize the information where it most fit in my business venture. I will apply “branding” when it comes time to kick start the business motion gears! Thanks for reading my post!

Traven Wells Entrepreneurial Finance Full Sail University Mastery Journal Part Two May 27, 2018

My original goal for this month was to learn how to calculate the yearly expenses for a business owner. Did i do so?? Yes I did! So much more was learned than expected and anticipated. Being able to understand the structural build of a start up plan can help the process of your business model. One way I was able to accomplish that goal was by taking full participation in the learning process.  Practicing time management to better help me schedule and use my time wisely in order to complete each assignment. Working full-time and being a full-tim student may feel impossible do both at the same time. What we don't understand is that any and everything is possible, just take maximum effort! Since working full-time it’s hard to properly time manage because all you want to do is rest and prep for the next day but in this case that was not an option. I’m done it and I’ve done it and there’s nothing more rewarding!

So much is learned when there’s so much on your plate that beneficial to your knowledge. For instance, at work I learned to properly read a ruler. Now I feel that I can measure any and everything there is without having some dilemma behind it. Another instance would be this months class. Going through each of the assignments I learned the breakeven analysis. This is a point in your growth where you determine your yearly profit and how to strategically cut losses and focus more on gains. Wow that sounded like a fun fact for the health club. But you understand?—This was such an informative assignment that I will hope to l be use personally thought the years of my business’s development.This assignment gave me a visual on the operation of my business and what I will need in order to be successful during business hours. Especially the services that I am offering will need more than two sets of hands.

Thanks for reading!!

Mastery Journal: Legal  Issues in Entrepreneurship

My original goal this month for this class was to learn how to properly prepare for any legal issues that might occur during the success of my business. This goal was met by simply completing all the assignments in it’s entirety. All of the reading assignments given this month went hand-in-hand with the development of understanding business roles. For instance, properly gathering certain permits to get specific work done to the physical space or learning to establish certain agreements among peers, employees or other companies.

I want to for the future act out what I learned in a real life event and see the outcome. It’s only but so much information that a person intake to truly understand and accept it’s value. What is it like to own a business at the age of 24? Is it a high percentage for young entrepreneurs starting early and being successful? Through observation there are several young adults that made it big in the streaming world and social media. Their route make going to college skeptical or doubtful.

I also learned how to strategically research the web to gather information that’ll help me support a theory, hypothesis, situation or topic. This month shared valuable information pertaining to intellectual properties and how it could benefit your business. So this month was busy, a little hectic but worth it! Everything this month was taken into careful consideration and helped me become a tech savvy and researching guru.
