Before social media, the Internet was a very formal and professional place. Now, people fight, joke and monitor fights between dog and goat Twitter accounts (this is what I did last … Continue reading Designing for Emotion: Ch. 1
This week we began reading Designing for Emotion by, Aarron Walter and in the first chapter I found that there were some ideas that I agreed and disagreed with. During this chapter I came to realize that I agreed with Abraham Maslov’s hierarchy of needs example.

It involves choosing and analyzing two separate stakeholders through completing a segmentation matrix and then making two different Direct Mailers one for each stakeholder. For my first stakeholder, it is the prospective OU student, 16-18 years of age, ACT/SAT accepted scores, Top 10% of class, Income: $100,000+, and … Continue reading “Stakeholder numero uno”
