I am taking this course COMM296 and I would like to make a little introduction about myself in order to make sure my professor Ms.Burke and my fellow classmates can get a better idea of who I am.
My name is Jiayu Li and all my friends call me Lilas(it’s actually a French name, with a silent “s”). I am a second year student in Sauder.I am from China and I came to UBC about one and half years ago,which was the time I first came to Canada. Living in Vancouver, I am having a great time, except for the raining of course.
I dont have a lot of hobbies, however, I LOVE photography! I like to capture details of life and beauty of the world. Although I havent got a DLSR yet, I love to study the frame of pictures and I am studying photoshop skills myself. And… I also like swimming.I often go swimming at the Aquatics centre of UBC. It feels good after doing sports.
I am taking this course not only because of the BCom program requirement, but also the amazing power of marketing. I have read that above half of the budget of a company can be uesd on marketing. And great marketing skills do work amazingly. It’s like magical, only that you can see how the magic works are happening through marketing strategies. For example, using social-networking, ads can spread so fast that it could be seen by 200,000 people in 5days or some thing like that. Although not every ad can do that amazing job, some of them can really be very effective.I myself have some experiences working in marketing department of our club but it’s more like technology skills related such as making posters. I am willing to learn more about marketing strategies. I think this should be fun.
Hope that we will have fun together this term! And of course I would wish for good-looking marks.O(∩_∩)O
P.s.That’s me in the picture!
