Stephen Ruiz Boardroom Essay
Hello fellow boardroom members, my name is Stephen Ruiz and I am representing my company “Tootsie and Things.” Now as you know from a previous seeing of my company’s commercial, my product is the “TRP”, also known as the Tootsie Roll Pen.” My associates and I have been discussing when our commercial should be aired on the television. We believe it should be aired after the 4:00’ o’clock news. We think this because, when kids come home from school some of them go flipping through the channels trying to find something to watch and most likely procrastinate. Now if that child were to pause on the channel that the commercial was being aired on, they would say to they’re parents when they get home , “Hey mom”, or “Hey dad, can we get the Tootsie Roll Pen?!” Another reason is because the funky music will catch they’re eye and they might stay on that channel, which could potentially boost the sales of this product. And to conclude my reasoning kids may just need “something cooler to write with”, as stated in the commercial. 25% out of 100% of kids watch television and do other activities instead of doing homework right away. 5% of kids play with pets and other animals. 40% of kids go on the internet and chat with their friends on sites like, Face Pad and Nype. And the last 30% engage in playing outside. If my product can go on the television then I could spread nationwide! Now I would also like to bring up how the choice of music would catch the listeners ears. The funky sounds will make the listener watch the commercial because you have your typical party sounds such as; whistles and horns. The funky fast danceable music will guarantee the listener tons of tasty fun. Last but certainly not least some kids just need something cooler to write with. Now with my product you may be afraid that your child might get sick from eating it but you don’t have to worry because it’s non-toxic. As for the Bubble Gum Pencil your child will not have enough natural flavor and too much artificial flavor. And also with Music Pens you are afraid that your child will get electrocuted. I got Music Pens for my daughter and guess what,? She got electrocuted. I also tried the Bubble Gum Pencil for my son and he got food poisoning and he got it taken away from him at school. So why pay $14.99 for the Music Pens when your child could be at risk! In conclusion, to keep you thinking twice about purchasing these products, think about your budget and your child’s life. You won’t be disappointed with my product.
