    2.) Given the large percentage of MMB’s customers are repeat visitors, I would recommend that adding a option to their website would allow users to submit their e-mail address so they can receive a monthly newsletter or updates about featured tours. In the e-mail messages I would also include links to the photo galleries that are posted on the website. They are appealing to the eye enough to draw people all on their own. The links are convenient for customers to be able to forward the e-mail to their friends who might be interested or are photo enthusiast. This strategy also works well with the fact that so many of MMB’s first customers are referred to the company by word of mouth. I might think about including a promotion where repeat customers could receive discounts on their next tour if they refer a first time customer to the site. I would also advise the website include a page for booking tours online, since new customers might more than likely plan a trip if the option is immediately available to them on the site.…

They did not only impart to me memorable experiences and insights but they also helped me in my growth and maturity. With all the experiences and constructive criticisms I had with them, I can say that I have grown emotionally and mentally. They taught me a lot of things that school can never provide. They’re like family to me and being in the office is like being in my home.…

    Educational tours are one of the main ways that we students can be drawn in to experience learning immediately rather than by sitting in a classroom and read manuals. Educational tour/s purpose is to expose us student in real industries, manufacturing companies wherein we learn some of their processes, system and workflows since not all students learn the same way. Some students are able to understand how something works only by seeing a hands-on demonstration or viewing the “real thing”. Educational tour gives us ideas likewise opportunities to visit different industries or manufacturing companies that may help us visualize what we are learning at school. On February 26, 2015, the BA 2 students held an educational tour in three selected companies namely: International Pharmaceutical Incorporated (IPI), Coca Cola Corporation and Profood International Corporation. The educational tour started out as an escape from school for most of us students, bonding with friends, chance to unwind and of course, to learn new things and to gain knowledge and expertise at the same time that we may apply someday. First, we went to IPI. When I enter to IPI, I noticed that it is so quiet and well-guarded. There are so many restrictions like bringing camera, cellphones and the like. Afterwards, we proceed to the convention room, there’s a short briefing about the history of IPI, little introduction of their products, and the company’s VMG (Vision, Mission, Goal) as well as a short video presentation. Unfortunately, we’re not given the chance to visit their plant where the liniments was made due to certain reason of avoiding unnecessary disturbance to the workers and to maintain proper hygiene. But fortunately, they give us enough information regarding the company and its product. Basically, IPI started only single product which is Efficascent Oil, established by the Wong and Castillo family. Also, IPI is a manufacturing company and a distributor. The IPI we visited is actually the…
