Issues
Clearly, the AJX isn’t selling as well as we’d hoped. It’s more expensive for us to manufacture. It’s more expensive for the consumer to purchase. Its advantages over the AJC don’t appear to be worth
the price!
Too negative?
NextBack
Solutions
We’ve already decreased the price twice, with no effect.
We’ve made production costs as cheap as possible.
If we make the AJX cheaper, we’ll be selling them at a loss! This is BAD!
What do we do then?
This is meant for the Board of Directors, not 5-year-olds. Should probably explain more elagently
NextBack
Aggressive Marketing!
The customer looks at the AJX and sees a microscope. We should make them see endless possibilities! Show the wonders of science (with CGI, of course) Find some way to work in exotic locales, to brand us as

Target Audiences
Elementary schools: The AJC is a cheap but solid option for elementary schools to buy in bulk.
Middle / high schools: Typically prefer higher-end products, but sometimes go after the AJX.
Colleges: Always go for a much more powerful microscope. Kids: Their parents sometimes buy the AJC for their “junior
scientists.” Adult enthusiasts: They often buy the AJX, but only if they
don’t know better.DON’T insult our own products!

PRESENTATIONS
NextHold on there.
I know I’ve been thinking about that pretty little island a lot lately..
Beautiful, isn’t it?.
But wishes and daydreams can only distract me.
Simple question: if I hate this job so much, why don’t I leave for that nice, sunny beach?
I need to pay my bills…
The economy sucks right now…
I’m saving up money for the plane ticket…
WRONG!!!!
I need to pay my bills…
The economy sucks right now…
I’m saving up money for the plane ticket…
I’ll ask again. Why am I still making these presentations after 7 years?I’m afraid of change.
This is all I know now.
I deserve this boring life.
All these answers are correct.
I’m afraid of change.This is all I know
now.I deserve this boring
life.
Making these presentations is what
I’m good at.It’s the only thing I’m
good at.
So now,finally,
I’m going to get back to work.
Alright.No.
No? Why the hell do I care all of a sudden? Just get back to work!
Alright.No.
I’d just get bored of seeing the world! I’d be back here in less than a
month! Alright.NO!
So be it.If I want to visit this island so badly.
I’ll have to work for it!
Bring it!
Avoid spiky
things!
Level 2
Level 3
Alright.No.
I’ve learned my lesson.I’ll abandon all thoughts of
islands and mountains, and get back to work.
