  The brand I chose for this week’s blog post is Happy Dad which is a seltzer that was created by some recently hitting youtubers among young adults (16-25) known as the “Nelkboys”.  I also Chose this product because I as well have enjoyed watching most of their content for the past 2 years and  personally would prefer a Happy Dad seltzer over any other seltzer being offered to me because they are actually lower carbonated and don’t contain as much sugar as other ones do That being said, this product has been a huge success on their end for the simple reason that when they do in-store events to stock up the seltzer they have thousands of local fans showing up and almost selling them out everytime.

 Hello Everyone! My name is Adrian Carranza and am enrolled in BA 223 for the spring term here at LBCC because I'm interested in knowing the important factors that make marketing be so helpful in making a business succeed. Also, I'm currently on my last term for my associates in accounting at LBCC. Another reason I want to take this course is so maybe one day If I decide to start my own business, I would then have some experience to my advantage in that area. Outside of College I would probably say that one of my top passions of mine would have to be Cars. I enjoy everything from driving to watching videos about newer vehicles and just watching lot's of videos on them whether they be informational, racing, drifting, etc. I own a 2005 Subaru Legacy GT which isn't nothing too special, but I got my hands on a manual version and it's somewhat had work done to it so you can best believe I get my fair share of fun in it.
