The generation of talking face-to-face is slowly fading away, and the technology era is going to keep on growing. One of the most widely used technology services known today is the cellular phone industry. According to the Pew Research Center’s website, 90% of American adults own a cell phone. Of that 90%, the smartphone ownership is at 64% (2013). Verizon Wireless, along with the other major carriers, T-Mobile, Sprint, and AT&T, have taken this data and comprised a growing industry where competition arises from all angles. These companies have battled one another on pricing, plans, and customer service for many years in order to stay on top. Unfortunately, these are major factors in whether or not a customer will choose the particular company over another.

The unit of analysis was the individual mobile phone service subscriber. Data were analyzed in two major stages, that is, through descriptive statistics and specific tests of hypothesis. Cross tabulation was used to analyze demographic variability of the respondents. Descriptive statistics including measures of central tendencies, measures of dispersion, frequencies and percentages were calculated to examine the respondents’ characteristics. These statistics showed the basic characteristics of research variables. The second stage of analysis focused on testing specific hypotheses of this study. To analyze qualitative data, content analysis was used following the suggestion by SPSS BOSS (2015). As noted by

The bulk of this cost would be recovered by a new revenue stream coming from private businesses, refunding the educational costs of the students once hired. This would also eliminate students from coming out of education with massive debt. With companies generating high profit margins through this movement, the extra income gathered is entirely invested into advancing and growing the current educational system. The refunding mechanism will also subsidize the investment in improving online learning and remote education platforms. The government and students are hereby freed from

After listening to the LP5 Seminar, there were three key subject areas that I learned about. First of all, I learned the difference between Individualism and Collectivism. An individualistic society such as the United States will depend on the values of independence and freedom; whereas, a society that is collectivistic will depend on group consensus and harmony. Each type of society will have values that play an important role in developing the communication styles used in a business message that is targeted to each specific audience. Even though the United States is broadly an individualistic country, there are smaller collectivistic communities
