Today in our marketing class we learned about distrubution. Distrubution is how a company gets there product from point A to point B. We did an activity which we had to get salt and water from one side of the room to another side using a spoon, napkin, and straw. Our plan was for the water just suck it all up as much as you can and go and just come back if needed. Then the napkin and spoon just try to scoop as much salt as we can. It was a pretty good play, we could have made it better if we would of got all the salt in one trip so it would of made it faster. Some of the challeges were that there were lots of other people going the same or different way we were going so it made alot of trafic. Our sucesses were that the water got there real fast and everything got there without droping anything. Having a good distribution plan is important because they won't loose any of there products trying to ship it, trying to get it somewhere. So its more money the company saves if it doesn't loose any products.
