Blog Entry # 4.9 -Cereal Names (B)

Five different names for my cereal could possibly be:

  • Command O's
  • Conquer Crunch
  • Sargent Charms
  • Mood Moons
  • Cannon Balls
I chose those names to be the name of my cereal because the all have something to do with the character that I am researching then.

    Blog Entry # 4.8- Target Consumer (B)

    My cereal will be targeting kids that are 7 years of age or younger but it doesn't mean that only 7 year olds can eat. My cereal box will contain a lot of colors that will attract the attention of the children. The box will even come with a little surprise inside. The back of the box will contain either a crossword puzzle or maybe  an anagram puzzle. On the side of the box will of course be nutrition facts  along with some healthy facts as well.
