EMM 311 WEEK 8 FOLLOW UP QUESTION RESPONSE
Hello, Class and Professor!
Therefore, after the video, I researched and discovered that my state has a program called the "Disaster Recovery Assistance Program." This program, among other things, provides financial assistance for home repairs, temporary housing, and other disaster-related expenses. It helps Pennsylvanians without other means of recovery after surviving a calamity. When federal recovery assistance is unavailable, this program takes over for Pennsylvanians who might not be eligible for federal funding. This was super informative and very eye-opening to find out about because the borough I live in within Pittsburgh, PA, is not prone to flooding compared to other boroughs and counties surrounding the city of Pittsburgh. Thus, it was comforting to know that the state of PA has at least this resource and many others available.
As I delved deeper, I discovered that my state operates on local, state/federal, and private funding. However, the intricacies of each county and borough's financial operations pose a challenge. The city of Pittsburgh, surrounded by various government levels, each with its approach to handling
disasters, makes researching these types of financing a complex task. This complexity, however, adds an element of intrigue to the process.
However, one issue that particularly catches my eye and I foresee as one that might not be addressed as helpful would be local funding. I say this because this type of funding requires passing new taxes or fees and frequently necessitates extensive community involvement. Even though this type of funding allows for state and federal government grants, municipal revenue may be matched. However, it still becomes an issue when passing new taxes that people are already upset about, especially given today's
issue with the rise of inflation. People might not buy into a tax increase, which creates problems relating to trust and resiliency that we spoke of earlier. Out of the three ways of funding, as I have said before, I feel that the one that would become a huge problem and not be helpful is local funding due to the circumstance of taxes and relating it to today's issues in society as we speak.

The Situation:
This has to be one of the most depressing annual review meetings you’ve ever sat through. Sure, times have been tough before, but never like this. In the past year, your power-tools company has lost 37 percent market share. Sales have decreased by 64 percent. Profit is down almost 70 percent. You had to lay off one-third of your workforce. And worst of all, it doesn’t look to be getting better anytime soon. Housing sales and construction are at an all-time low, meaning your best customers, contractors, have little work to do and even less money to spend on new tools.
“We have to increase sales!” you tell the rest of your management staff. They stare back at you, of course, because everyone knows what needs to be done. They just don’t know how to do it. How do you sell a product when demand is so low?
As everyone in the room ponders over this, an intern sitting in the back corner…

Unpaid posts on social media handles is a great way to acquire new customers, because:
Algorithms for social media websites, like Facebook, prioritize posts from businesses over posts from friends
Impressions for posts on social media websites is very high, since most customers have accounts on the
websites, and log in almost everyday
Social media posts can be shared. This increases impressions, and consequently helps acquire many new
customers
None of the other statements are correct. Unpaid posts on social media handles receive very limited
impressions, and thus, are not a great way to acquire new customers.
