Week 3 EOC: Making Money for Good



Sketchers one of the largest shoes company's in the world can also be considered a helping hand. Not to long ago did sketchers come out with a new shoe called Bobs. Bobs is one of the most popular selling item and it works because every time a customer buys bobs sketchers turns and gives a pair to less fortunate children in other countries. On the other hand I believe that sketcher in every way is mimicking the idea that the owner of Toms had in mind. As long as you are doing something to help the world do not really matter what your product is. Sketchers has been very successful in this movement they have been able to give over 40 million shoes away in 25 different countries all over the world. People love to feel like they have helped without actually helping. Sad to say but our society is lazy and so it is easy to go and spend $80.00 dollars on a pair of shoes then actually be active in charity. This is not a bad thing. Sketchers has found a way to help the world without having people really do anything but simply but a pair of shoes, that are stylish and comfortable to wear. It is amazing how they pull people in to help for a great cause.  It's a great way to help the world one shoe at a time.
