The “small win” began with the recruitment of a team of teachers that serve as the facilitators of the parent workshops. This team of teachers provides the successful training and serves as advisors for the parent participants. The benefits of the win included the development of a community partnership of stakeholders. The community includes the administration, parents, and teachers who will collaboratively work together as well informed decision-makers that will provide the foundation and support of increased student academic achievement. BRICK Avon Academy In conclusion, according to Ruben (2009) ten best practices for leading organizational change, BRICK Avon Academy is using best practice to implement the change strategy. The practices include the ability to assess and plan, demonstrated leadership and commitment, building an implementation team that includes key stakeholders and influential leaders in the organization; and assess and monitor the impact of the change. The next steps in the change strategy include increasing parent attendance, creation and implementation of additional workshops in accordance to parent feedback, and tracking the impact on academic achievement, motivation, and student confidence. The goal of BRICK’s change strategy is to enhance student learning and support scholars enabling them to be successful productive individuals that can enter the 21st century workforce. According to BRICK Avon Academy’s mission statement (n.d.) building responsible, intelligent, and creative students through partnership of school, parents, and the community with prepare scholars to be successful in the 21st century globally society. Shared values are created when the stakeholders work in partnership, accountability is upheld, as parents gain knowledge and skills they become better role models and supporters of their children. The partnership must be created around student learning to identify the barriers to achievement, resulting in increased student achievement (Dervarics and O’Brien, 2011). In solidifying the foundation of the family, the students will thrive, be highly motivated and develop from that stronger parental foundation resulting in higher academic achievement and success. The change strategy addresses the lack of parental awareness of the components of the programs and use of Internet tools to support student success. Workshops will continue throughout the school year. For results and correspondence for those workshops, visit the community blog. "Small Win" Parents have begun to attend educational workshops held at BRICK Avon Academy. At the end of meetings, each parent responded to an “ABC” evaluation:" What action will you take as a result of the meeting?" What was the best part of this meeting?" What concerns do you have? Post these concerns and ask for resolutions to be offered in the BRICK Community Blog. Additional comments, responses, and resolutions will be used to revise any upcoming workshops and be included in decision making changes in our school curriculum and schedule.

Future and present planning One in every five students has a learning disability. Our goal is to have each of them use EasyNote because of its revolutionary effect on learning and processing information. Our primary target market will be students, specifically those with learning disabilities; however, as these students graduate and enter the work force, our market will expand to include companies. EasyNote is a software that recognizes voices—it can be set to pick up a specific voice, for example, of a professor, or to pick up all voices during class discussion—and automatically type out the speaker(s)’s words in a Microsoft Word document. The software will recognize and pick up voices using the computer’s microphone (almost all computers are equipped with microphones, so this will not limit our target market). The role of the CFO is to both seek money from various investors for capital resources and manage the company's money by keeping watch over the assets of the company. Lack of experience amongst our management. Our use of experienced, external advisors minimizes this weakness. Lack of major advertising in the first year. Our trial offers minimize the lack of marketing. S.W.O.T. Analysis OPPORTUNITY We are currently looking for a head engineer to be our production manager.

Transcript: Healthy alternative to sugary deserts Use only organic fruits, vegetables, and flavorings Use honey and agave nectar instead of refined sugars Target children/ parents of picky eaters Help parents feel better about what they are feeding their children Strengths The mission of the company is to make a nutritious, reachable snack delicious enough for children to want and parents to buy. A healthy, kid-friendly frozen juice bar Prevent childhood obesity Threats Competition: Fruit and vegetable juices Whole fruit popsicles Frozen yogurts Marketing Objectives CEO Marketing Environment Questions for Children: Do you like the taste of the Vegsticles? If you had to choose between the healthy popsicle (Vegsticle) or a conventional popsicle, which would you choose and why? Which flavor of Vegsticle would you be most interested in trying? With a startup cost of one million dollars and our contribution margin equaling out to be two dollars and sixty-five cents, our breakeven point will be approximately 377,359 boxes of Vegsticles sold. Prices of crops Based on the weather, the farm’s acreage, and the government’s interference Effective Channels: Elementary schools Health stores & superstores Ice cream trucks Work with schools around the nation to educate kids about health Expand to all grocery stores Partner with the government to fight the childhood obesity epidemic We will spend our initial advertising efforts on schools. We want to start a health awareness campaign to stop childhood obesity. Create a health awareness month sponsored by Vegsticle Health month will be advertised in school newsletters and local papers, so the events can also attract parents. Lastly, we will buy TV ads and sample our product in superstores. Questions for Adults: Do you buy popsicles for your kids to enjoy as a snack? Would you be interested in buying a healthy popsicle alternative for your children? Do you think your children would have interest in the Vegsticle? What do you think is a reasonable price for the Vegsticle? What is a flavor you are most interested in trying? Expensive to produce Spoilage of the fresh produce Difficult to predict initial and future sales Product Raw Materials and Manufacturing Costs: Celery stick Fruits and Vegetabes $700 per ton Making a Vegsticle takes roughly a quarter of a pound of vegetables to create, so the cost to create one is estimated to be nine-hundredths of a cent. Machines and Molds 1 Million $$$ Enter Health Stores Intermediaries Schools Grocery stores Price will remain the same when selling to schools and wholesalers. For individual boxes sold in stores the price will be slightly higher than our competitors since we will have healthier ingredients. By the time our product enters superstores, we hope to have a strong brand amongst different school in the United States, thus giving us an edge on our competition and allowing us to charge more. Create Relationships Marketing Research TVC: $10,700 Cost/ Box: $8 Killer Kale: Kale, cucumber, watermelon, apples, agave nectar Crazy Carrot: Carrot, pineapple, oranges, honey Loveable Lemon: Apples, lemons, romaine lettuce, ginger root Groups: Advertising School Relations Health Awareness Campaign Social Media Store Relations Free of added sugars, corn syrup, and artificial coloring Sweetened only with local honey and agave nectar The stick is made of celery Action Programs Price Customers Children who refuse to eat healthy because of the taste Parents who want to rid their homes of unhealthy, sugar-filled foods Individuals who like "juicing" trend Advertising: TV Ads Day Time (12pm - 4pm) $300 for TV ad Samples cost = price of product 5 Sectional Managers 1 Year Plan: Government Schools Health Stores & Super Stores Ads and Sampling Booths Health Awareness Month (schools) Analyze past year and brainstorm for the future Executive Summary Vegsticle offers a healthy frozen treat alternative to consumers. There are different fruits and vegetables infused inside the frozen bar without added sugars or corn syrup. Ex. Kale, Carrot, and Lemons Satisfies consumers want for a frozen treat and provides the nutrients needed for balanced diet. The packaging will be brightly colored and have bold words to attract children. The brand aims to become more of a lifestyle than just a name, encourage healthier future. We will be relying on a government initiative to help Vegsticle integrate into schools by promoting a health awareness campaign to prevent childhood obesity. Michelle Obama "Let's Move" Plan B: If we cannot intrigue the national government, we will target the local governments. Once integrated into schools, revenue generated will help us branch out into super stores and health stores. Wal-Mart, Whole Foods, Costco, etc Targeted Customers (STP) Promotion Locations we will find our demographic: schools, parks, pools, and health/ grocery stores send our mobile truck transported in a refrigerated capsule regulated to below freezing temperatures Weaknesses Budget
