I don’t care what anyone says, no one knew who Obama was before the 2008 election… He popped onto the political stage after 2 years of being a no-show Senator … He gained popularity and was elected President within 6-9 months…— THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE… Usually a President’s past is transparent and open to the public, so what is Obama hiding? 9 out of 10 Americans don’t know where he was born, what Religion he follows, what he did during his adolescence, who raised him besides his mom, who his affiliates were, and what connections does he still have to the shady characters in his past…… There is a documentary coming out about all the things Obama wanted to hide from the public. It’s supposed to be pretty shocking, and shows Obama growing up with adult influences that have a radical, anti-colonialism political stance. He is by far the most liberal President in U.S History, that’s not even debatable, but what troubles me even more is the blind acceptance he receives from Hollywood, and the main-stream Media. They started backing Obama before they even knew what he stood for…. I firmly believe that if Obama started growing horns out of his head, and turned red in front of the world, he would still get re-elected.

Alax Corporation – a sports cars manufacturer is in the field of manufacturing racing car for the last 120 years. 6 years back, it introduced a very expensive new sports car – CX09. The target market of this car was determined as very rich non-professional racers who want to enjoy speed and thrill on city roads. The distinctive feature of this car was that it could also be used for normal drives. Due to this feature, with the passage of time, CX09 has become a successful brand in the local market. Now, CX09 has successfully entered into the growth stage of its life cycle. Owing to rapid growth in the sales and its popularity, other local car manufacturers have also entered in this niche market. This has alarmed Alax as the competition may be intense in the days to come.
To manage with this situation, the Marketing Division of Alax is planning to organize a small conference to devise strategies. In the conference, the company is planning to invite a few students from local business universities. If you are invited there then what strategies at this growth stage of CX09, with reference to pricing and advertising, would you suggest to the company?
