In the world of business, it is incredible to what extent a new business start-up could impact not only the industry markets as a whole but also the people in the society by providing them with relatively lower costs as a result of competition between those industries of the same sector. Meteor, filled with anticipation believed it could bring out these changes into the industry of telecommunication and expectantly provide the necessary changes. Throughout the course of this essay I will outline how these changes came about by firstly assessing the attractiveness of the Telecommunication Industry in 1998 and by analyzing the strategies Meteor used when entering into the market of telecommunications and the factors that caused Meteor to change …show more content…
This particular development process to ‘stimulate the use of mobile phones in Ireland and reduce tariffs’ (Meteor case study,2011) was spotted out by a series of other telecommunication industries, that had a view of becoming the next successful industry of telecommunications alongside Eircell and Esat Digifone. Eircell and Esat Digifone had already established themselves fully in this particular market and had already proved their strategies to be successful, Eircell had already reached as much as ‘330,000 customers, while Digifone had 80,000’ (Meteor case study,2011). However, the opening ‘applications for the third mobile network license’ (Meteor case study,2011) quite strongly impacted what is still widely know as Meteor. It had an impact on meteor in such a way that it persuaded them to compete for the license. As from Meteors’ point of view the the telecommunication industry in the year 1998 was most certainly an attractive industry, thus their reason of competing for the license. The reason why Meteor believed that the telecommunication industry in 1998 was attractive, was not solely based on just entering the market and providing more substitutional goods that had already existed. It was more based on bringing out some new changes into this particular industry of telecommunications. One of the main changes that Meteor seeked to provide was …show more content…
Whilst applying these approaches Meteor first had to invent strategies and ways of making full advantages of them. Thus seeking recognition from the youth segments, Meteor’s aim was to find new ways of further increase interests amongst the members of this segment ‘endeavouring to provide music and camera phones that this age group could afford’(Meteor case study,2011) . However, Meteor as a new company was not yet as established as the other two companies at the time were. Therefore, seeking more publicity and especially publicity of the youth market, Meteor decided (and was part of Meteor’s strategy) to sponsor what is still known as the ‘Meteor's Ireland Music Awards’. This strategy of sponsorship was very effective for this newly established company of mobile networking. The youth especially are more into music than perhaps the elder people of the society, thus sponsoring a Music Awards show would constantly have Meteor’s title mentioned. As a result it of this strategy Meteor had gained more of public’s appreciation, that had proved Meteor how effective its strategy is even up to date. Another main strategy of attracting the youth was to provide mobile phones that could be used to access their social media accounts easily. Back when Meteor first opened up in
Question 2 Advances in technology drive a great amount of the change that occurs in business organizations. The competitive advantage in today 's business environment includes staying on top of technological advancements that impact your industry. Business strategies that include acquiring new technologies should be guided by best practices that consider the impact on the firm, customers, employees, vendors and other stakeholders.

Dream Destination goals must be revisited.

In the last 30 years’ obesity rates in children have doubled and in adolescents, have quadrupled (CDC, 2015, para 1). New York Post journalist Anna Davies, illustrates how the new pop culture phenomenon, Pokémon Go is a superb idea that is great for getting children on the move. Davies describes Pokémon Go as a “parents dream”, perceiving it as a remedy for parents in getting their children off of the couch, and out exploring the outdoors. Through the integration of a laudatory tone, personal facts, and statements from the public; Davies recognizes her audience and is able to play into the emotions of the reader while convincing them of her credibility and the benefits of the app.

Verizon and AT&T are both such successful wireless communications providers, that sometimes it is easy to forget that there are other available providers. The consumer numbers for T-Mobile, Sprint Corporation, and U.S. Cellular do not even compare to Verizon’s and AT&T’s continuously growing number of consumers. Verizon and AT&T, although competitors, continue to find their own success and new wireless communication users. It is important to take a look at the background of both competitors to see where Verizon and AT&T got started. Verizon was created just 17 years ago on June 30, 2000.

By 1900, the effects on everyday life were clear, the telephone allowed people to communicate from long distances and reduced the amount of time wasted.

In music, Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Buddy Holly and Marvin Gaye were the most prolific people on the world stage. Marlon Brando, James Dean and Marilyn Monroe ruled the cinematic stage. However, the major highlight of this era was the dawn of technologies involvement in our life. Radio, television and all electronics in general no longer became wants but needs. Once somebody owned one they were aware of everything happening around them, knew what’s hot and what’s not and could be easily persuaded to buy the newest vacuum cleaner model or dress from the shops.
This will ultimately result in higher sales because it gives existing clients an opportunity to do more business with Tee Talent. The fifth point is very important to mention as it can be a great return on investment. Sometimes sponsoring events can be a better return on investment as compared to simply adverting on social media or on TV. The reason for this is that sponsoring events reaches a specific target audience rather than mass advertising which focuses more on advertising to a wide variety of people. Finally, the
AT&T closed the deal and bought DirecTV for about $49 billion in July this year. This merger will make AT&T the country’s largest pay TV provider, with more than 26 million subscribers. Why did AT&T agree to pay this whopping price to acquire DirecTV? The answer to this question lies in the problem AT&T was facing with the rising competition from other wireless companies and losing money to cable companies providing phone services. With the fast growing streaming and wireless technologies, more and more cable and satellite service providers want to control content and delivery.

Digital marketing is the marketing of products or services using digital technologies, mainly on the Internet, but also including mobile phones, display advertising, and any other digital medium. Digital marketing 's development since the 1990s and 2000s has changed the way brands and businesses use technology for marketing.
