Jasmine sent our report to Haris before this meeting and that we were waiting for his reply. We received his reply when we were editing (spot mistakes) some parts in the report.
Upon receiving his reply, we were hoping so much that our report will be good and that his comments will be positive.
Nothing’s perfect =) Haris gave his comments and he advised us on the necessary areas that we could work on. We looked through his comments and we tried to visualize the changes that we could make. After which, we decided to put this aside first as we had to do up our recommendations and conclusion first. At the end of the discussion, we came out with these.
Team Recommendations: Objectives (To link back to our recommendations):
Research and evaluate whether industry events are successful to sustain the centre.
1. Increase awareness of the social enterprise centre
2. Increase sales of the social enterprise centre’s items
3. Increase visitor rates to the social enterprise centre
Thus we recommend:1. Do more events
2. Entice more industry players down for partnerships and collaborations (travel agents etc)
3. Increase their marketing strategies such as… (Increase more transportation to the centre) (Improve on the marketing strategies used)
Conclusion Industry event: Effective (To have a stand based on the topic)
It is effective + Reasons why it is effective.
Add quotes, good response from delegates.
Events in one way or another, events do make things work
Ways to improve: 1. Centre has to maintain relations and keep on progressing on the partnerships and collaborations.
2. Pro-active
At the end of the day, we allocate the task equally among ourselves as below and to be completed by that night.
Jasmine: Recommendations
Ju & Asri: Conclusion
Ash: Ensure the flow of the report and make necessary changes according to Haris’s advice.
Sherwin: Update on pictures to be included in the report.
At the end of the meeting, after the comments given by Haris, we thought that the report was fine, just that we had to shift our content here and there. I guess, the report is more into the execution of the event rather than the details. After meeting, we agreed to meet up tomorrow so as to sit down together and make last amendments together as a team.
