Ki||ers Loading their Guns!!



April, 23th

Many things have been going on since our last Blog post, meetings, exams, fights :P and the best thing ever,,, The mid term VACATION!!! Mohaned and Maan went to Riyadh, and I'm back to my family at Al-Madinah. :)

We are 99% done with our pre-campaign report, thanx to my group members who did a great job with it. surprisingly we didn't know about the AdWords Strategy part!! but we handled the situation very well, and every thing is OK now.

Working with Google Docs is pretty amazing, we were able to edit the report with each other in real-time!! try it by yourself!! trust me words can't explain <<< my inner Geek :P
so basically we will try to submit the report by tomorrow, so wish us good luck :)

Ki||ers first official meeting



April, 19th ...

we had our first official group meeting to discuss the pre-campaign strategies and to write a report about them ....
this a brief report about the meeting:

the meeting took place at liwan coffe shop on sea view of Al-Khobar city. We did our researches on the the middle east E-Commerce market and its trends. we found out that its a good environment to start an E-Business in M.E. area. then we discussed the marketing strategies that we are going to adopt in our campaign. despite the fact that RAYYAN took of for smoking like a thousand times, we end up with a lot of information about the company(Gillani Inc.).
finally, we put all of our discussions on the paper and prepare the written report. the meeting official time was two hours. but due to minor difficulties in finding information needed, it took an extra hour. thankfully, we finished our pre-campaign strategy report and we are ready to roll :D.

Meeting with the Gillanis

On a peaceful afternoon, we were suppose to meet with the Gillanis but the meeting moved to 1700 as the CEO, Sayed Kamal Gillani, had a meeting in Dammam. So... we felt a bit hungry and we had to get a bite to eat. Maan was already full, so he was whining to get home, who is by the way called "The Captain". Anyway, we went to Steak House, we took him with us, and we had a fine lunch, I am not saying what it is ;).

By the time we finish lunching, we drove to their office in Gulf Tower and called them on the way. We, Me and Rayyan, were feeling a bit dizzy after a nice meal and we could've called off the meeting. Oh yeah .. and I didn't tell you about Rayyan. He wasn't feeling well after his meal so he had to go the rest room and spent sometime there, as Maan and I were doing Steak House's new survey.

Back to the meeting, we meet with the CEO and he gave us a 30 min presentation of Gillani Inc. story of success. (I'll be giving you the short version later). A question was flying in my mind on , almost, every point he said. We asked him some, and he was really cooperative with us.

Anyway, I running later to MGT449 class, I'll be blogging later!
