Hello,


This week we had to make a exercise for the lesson Corporate Communication like every week. But this week we have to make the final exercise it was a little bit more work that the other weeks.
We had to do it in a group of five students. I was in a group with: Florien, Kiki,Rosan and Jolijn.
A very nice group.

It was not a very difficult exercise, but it was a lot of work because we have to make a communication plan. So we have to make al 5 of us a little bit and that we put that together.
I think it was a nice last exercise of this course.

I hope Mrs Buma, our teacher for Corporate Communication like our assignment and we get a nice result.

This was my last blogpost for this course,

Bye, Viora

Why does Subway care about childhood obesity?

Subway thinks that they people can change, like more sports and thinking of food.
They want to hold a position within their customers.

What communication techniques does Subway use to work on the
problem?
TV commercials and shows on the television.


Describe the various parts of Subway’s campaign.

In the TV spots they let people see how three kids change their live by eating better.
It let the people see how the kids can wear jeans and can play football. The spots were simply and let them see how the kids felt better.
In the TV show they let people see all the news about childhood obesity.


What could have happened to the company if Subway had not
embarked on this campaign?

What can happened to Subway was that the get complaints from customers or other companies.
Than they have a big problem and maybe the Subway will be ruptured.

Assignment 7: Letter of enquiry
Dear Mister/Miss,
I am a student, studying at the Faculty of Communication and Journalism of the Professional University of Utrecht in the Netherlands. I found the English as a Foreign Language course for international students that you gave, on the website of the City College Manchester.
I am studying in the first year of Corporate Communication. Before this study I did the study Communiation and Management but I didn’t pass the first year.
My English is not very well, last year I also had English lessons but I didn’t pass the grammar test. I had five years English on the secondary school. I learned a lot but I think it’s not enough for business English in the daily life. I’m a little bit afraid to talk in English because I think I made much mistakes.
Can you please tell me when I can follow this course, I like to do it in summer.
I hope this study can help me to make English easier for me. I do like English very well.
I look forward to hear from you.

Yours Faithfully,
Viora Rebergen.

third post: me

Well, a busy week has passed and finally I found some time to write my synopsis for the weekly post. 

Today third Tuesday of September the queen announced the new government policies for the upcoming year. Holland is presently in a recession similar to all other European countries therefore it has to retrench in its spending. Nevertheless I hardly take hold of  any symptoms of a recession. 

My parents still got their job so as I, I even tough received a salary raise. I work for a hospitality and catering company, Maison van den Boer, and business is going to a certain extent quite well. They hire new people every month and our sales department is more than ever full of activity to handle the new requests.

So next week a new post,

Hope you will read them again!

Second post: We all live in a social media world

'Hi, can I speak to Laura please'?

I used to call my girlfriends using the house telephonenumber. Nowadays you just call each other by using your mobile phone. Almost everyone has one of them. Some people have a very new and up-to-date mobile phone with internet.
Beside contacting people by using your mobile phone there is a posibility using social networks like Twitter, Hyves, Facebook. Within a few seconds you can contact anyone who has one of the things I mentioned before.
You can also see what your friends are up to, are they doing things or can you give them a call to do some fun stuff? Even today I find it very weird to get to know everything about everyone if I wanted to. There are good things and bad things about the whole "social networking society". Nowadays social networking and calling by using your mobile phone is part of everyone and everything in the daily life!
