Coonor B: Sketchers and Reality Stars

The Sketchers trade of Kim Kardashian for a dog that will race faster dogs then itself with sketchers shoes on and win. In my opinion this will affect the business greatly. It says in the article that before they had her doing their commercials they only had 100,000 fans on their facebook web page. When they hired her they had 400,000 fans. Since they switched to using a French bulldog and a couple of grey hounds for the commercial animal activists have been complaining about animal cruelty. They say the dogs shouldnÆt be put in cages, while they are being kept in the largest cages in the country. This decision may have a large affect on the economy for the reasons being, that people may not buy as many shoes which would decrease the amount of money Sketchers gets. If Sketchers doesnÆt get that money they may not give as many donations to charities or give higher wages to employees. Then the employees would not be able to spend that money and that decrease the flow of money going around in the economy.
