Mini Report
Virtual Market 2020 is a program to provide an online market platform for student to sell their products. This platform acts as e-commerce to expand business opportunities and experience among students. I joined this program to challenge myself in business conduct, improve designing skills and learn how to manage social media platforms in a more creative way. The program highlighted various attributes, especially enterprising skills. The committee connects with other entrepreneurs to make commercial planning and identify customer values. The activities include selling products on Instagram and spreading the advertisement through other platforms. The various poster is posted based on the product category at different time to avoid confusion and be more organized. The products were sold at a low price since our target market are students. Apart from that, The program held a lucky draw and giveaway activities to attract more audiences and the winner may get a discount voucher and some gifts.
Self-Reflection
This program taught me how to make better planning by observing the customer demands on the product. To ensure this program get more attention and participants, we learnt about marketing technique on design and the word used for advertisements. This improves my advertising skills and communication skills as we have to communicate with the seller and possible customers. Talking about teamwork, my teammates work and listen to me very well. Even though I am not the unit leader, I took a part in giving ideas and teaching other members. We work hand in hand and looked up to each other. Furthermore, this program is quite challenging for me since this is my first time participating in an e-commerce program. It is very different from other talk or official programs because it's involved customers and selling products. In addition, this program is held online and we are struggling to find sellers who are willing to participate in this program. Fortunately, we got a good reaction and lots of participation.
