ATX Live
Marketing Plan for Austin City Limits Live Music Festival
6/11/2013
ATX Live, LLC
Demeka Randolph- Gomez -209345

Introduction
When you think of live music in the United States and abroad, two places come to mind, Austin, TX and London, England. Music is something that brings people together from all walks of life, cultures and backgrounds and gives your body and soul a refreshing breather from life and the challenges that life brings. Our goal at ATX Live, LLC is to help bring these two worlds together and to create more of an international buzz for Austin’s Live Music World.
Austin, TX is the capital of Texas and the Austin City Limits is a musical arena in Austin, TX that attracts people of all ages, cultures and backgrounds during the Austin City Limits Live Music and Arts Festival. The festival gives people an opportunity to experience all of what Austin has to offer in terms of music, culture, art, as well as, food. When researching target markets, I found that London, England has a huge underground music following and we believe that the people of London would love to see what Austin, TX has to offer. The festival features music of an eclectic variety of genres to include rock and country, jazz and rhythm and blues, bluegrass and indie, just to name a few. We believe once we give the people of London a taste of what Austin has to offer, we can begin to make this event even bigger than it has been in the past.

    In Kristen Weinacker’s essay “Safer? Tastier? More nutritious? The Dubious Merits of Organic Foods”, she makes a claim of fact that organic foods may not be more nutritional than conventionally grown foods. Weinacker does an exceptional job supporting her claim effectively with evidence by using the opinions of several experts, as well as the appeal to our physiological needs. She warrants that by mentioning the use of slick marketing techniques by organic food companies and our belief that organic farmers “bring us back to nature”, we tend to forgive statistical data and start to lean on our common sense. Throughout the essay Weinacker reiterates that most, if not all, of the research data available does not contain the statistical proof necessary to successfully warrant the claim.…

    The five different locations that I observed were Forever 21, La Carreta, Miami Dade College, Santa’s Enchanted Forest, and Primera Iglesia Alianza Hispana. These venues aren’t all similar but, the one thing they have in common is they aren’t ashamed to express their style of music to the world. They all attract certain types of people to their locations like for example, La Carreta which is a Caribbean restaurant, here the audience they want to attract are mainly Hispanics and this because they mostly put on Latin music like bachata, Latin pop, and Mexican music. The difference between the venues is the purpose they serve, for example, Forever 21 is a clothing store for teenagers, Miami Dade College is a college campus, Santa’s Enchanted Forrest…

    In the essay, “Do Video Games Kill?” Karen Sternheimer takes on the topic of media’s influence on teen and adolescent violence in America. She focuses primarily on video games, particularly the recently popular “first-person shooter” games (p. 204). With the debate still raging on, there is a history that reflects the same problematic issues that we face today. Sternheimer follows this debate through many topics, but the encompassing theme is that there are many underlying issues that are not being addressed due to the acute focus on a media outlet such as video games.…

    Evaluation is an important process required to determine the reliability and validity of information from various sources, such as journals, text books, and web pages (http://www.lib.berkeley.edu). The article in question looks at “the impact of early dementia an outdoor life”. Bennet (2001) is the framework that will be used to help structure the evaluation of this article, as it should then give an indication if the information is clearly justified or not. The study was carried out by four researchers: who have clearly stated their educational and professional back round in biographical notes Duggan et al (2008). The aim of the study was to determine if it is beneficial to sufferers of dementia to venture outdoors on a regular basis. According to Ferri et al (2005) dementia will affect 81.1 million people by the year 2040.…

    But now days that is not the Austin most people think of. You may think of Matthew Mcconaughey being arrested for playing his bongos, very nakedly and publicly. Jesse James stalks of his ex wife in a city he has no connections to half way across the country from his home. And more than a few ladies will think of Brad Womack and his beautiful features. In 2005 Austin was voted as the “Best City” for singles and the media has not stopped declaring it one of the best cities of any pole ever since. Some changes have been excellent for many businesses in the Austin area. It has destroyed any chance for young artists to be able to have access for discovery. Musical, and performance artists were able to work part time to support themselves and still have time to work on their craft in hopes of getting exposure that would give them the notoriety to pursue their dreams. Stevie Ray Vaughn, Janis Joplin, Willie Nelson, Mike Judge, Matthew McConaughey were small town Texas kids who had traveled to Austin from their small Texas hometowns in hopes of finding a way to be discovered and make the big time. Austin was known to be the live music capital of Texas and the home of the University of Texas performing arts school. But during the latter part of the early…
