4. Reflection:
This day reminded me of what I learned at UMK about event planning and multitasking in high-paced environments. It was a good exercise in flexibility and communication, as both tasks required a different approach in dealing with clients. I learned how important it is to listen to client needs, whether for a personal celebration or a business function, and ensure that every detail is presented clearly and confidently.

1. Daily Tasks/Activities:
Today, I conducted a site inspection for a corporate event and continued drafting a proposal for a travel agent. The site inspection focused on showcasing the event facilities and ensuring that the space met the corporate client’s requirements. At the same time, I worked on refining the proposal for the travel agent, adjusting details based on their feedback.

2. Skills Applied/Learned:

Strengthened my presentation skills during the site inspection, focusing on corporate event needs.

Improved proposal drafting by incorporating client feedback and making adjustments to align with their expectations.

Gained experience in balancing multiple tasks and maintaining attention to detail in both site inspection and proposal writing.

3. Challenges Faced:
The main challenge was ensuring that I gave both tasks the necessary attention. While the site inspection required focus on presentation and logistics, drafting the proposal also needed precision and careful wording to meet the client’s expectations.

4. Reflection:
Today was a valuable opportunity to apply both event management and sales skills. I realized how important it is to understand each client's specific needs and adapt accordingly, whether it's a corporate client needing a professional event space or a travel agent seeking competitive packages. The balance between these tasks was a great learning experience, and it reinforced the importance of time management and flexibility in a fast-paced environment.
