What I learned in ECON 325

I learned a great deal in just a seemingly short semester of ECON 325. We began the semester by focusing on building our personal brand through our brand website. I learned to create a logo that best defines me through Canva, 3D designs through Tinkercad software, An app design through adobe XD, and so much more. This has provided me skills such as video editing, Audio editing, Personal Branding, and Graphic Design. Ultimately, this website and the skills I learned have and will continue to prove useful for my internship this summer and beyond.

We then moved into the design sprint project, which taught me the importance and process of conducting market research at the beginning n stages of building a business. From the design sprint, I learned that knowing about the market you’re going to is key for targeting the right audience, sustainability, and generating revenue overall. Looking at past, current, and future trends of a market is critical for a business.

I plan to take with me throughout the rest of the E-minor sequence and into the future business that I get involved in. This process was extremely iterative and I will continue using the skills and the Econ ToolKit to guide me.
