Ethnographic Project influenced my view of Marketing, I learned how to work within my field and how can I improve through the years. My writing process facilitated my progress since I was able to choose the most useful information from the data I collected.

RWS 3355 4/20/2016 Ethnographic Project Reflective Essay During this part of the semester, many reading have been given that were building towards the Ethnographic project, many readings were centralized for the future authors to be centralized in their discourse community and to make them feel aware of what to address to their community. From the list of readings that were given to the class for this project, I think that the most difficult ones for me to comprehend before the in-class explanation were Swales The Concept of Discourse Community and Porters Intertextuality. On the other hand, Mirabellis Learning to Serve helped me to get a focus on how learning from your field can benefit you in your workplace to become an effective communicator. The example given in the lecture about the waiters and how knowing the menu can greatly influence the way waiters talk to the customers when taking their order really gives an exceptional example of effective communication. I really think these reading helped to give a background on what to expect from the project, many of the readings talked about structure while others talked about the discourse community being addressed, after the reading is explained in class, you can properly relate them to the ethnographic project. About the Ethnographic Project, what surprised me the most about my data collection methodologies was that Marketing does not work without communication with customers. Since the field is based on satisfying customer needs, if proper communication is not reached by a company, then their product will not generate satisfaction and thus, will not generate enough profits. The customers are addressed by interviews, focus groups, online polls, or any other type of data collection which is later transcribed into information for the top employers for a decision. I feel I did accomplish the purpose of this assignment, gathering the information from the project influenced my view of Marketing. I learned how to work within my field and how can I improve through the years so I do know how to be an effective communicator when I enter it. My writing process facilitated my progress since I was able to choose the most useful information from the data I collected while focusing on my discourse community and the purpose I had for the assignment, which was to write for anyone interested in my field. The major changes I did in my drafts was mostly the arrangement of information so everything was in its proper place and not repeating information through the paper. Overall, I think that the project could have been more effective if I gathered more information to have more credentials for my credibility. I did learn that my workplace is not for granted after I graduate, I learned that I need to work hard through my studies and
learn the most about Marketing. If Im able to become an effective communicator, I
will make the best out of my job. My sources told me that I will not start at the top no matter my credentials, they said that I will work on a low position not to undermine my judgment, but to help me learn about the company from the bottom to the top.
