Question 89

Essay

You Make the Call-Situation 1
Linda McMahan was getting numerous compliments on a handbag she carried to The University of Texas events. She had purchased the handbag, which carried the UT name, at a local store but felt the quality of the bag was poor. She and her sister-in-law, Sue Craft McMahan, decided to become partners and produce and sell high-end handbags emblazoned with the college logo.
The pair designed four different types of bags-a large totebag, a smaller bag, a crescent-shaped handbag, and a "bolder" game-day bag-all marked with The University of Texas emblem. Early responses to the product line were overwhelming. They've now set their sights on other big name schools.
