WEEK 9

    • I searched words like small business, success, networking, marketing, building clients and more. I came up with a ton of results, I felt that there was a bunch of great companies and people that popped up when looking through these searches. I ended up finding some really great businesses, websites that are posting content geared towards my business and a lot of well-established entrepreneurs. 
    • I created two lists, the first one being a Platforms list and the second being s Business related list. I think that these two lists are very motivating and can help me reach my goals because not only do they give me inspiration but also ideas I can incorporate into my own business model. 
    • I do not have a lot of information to go off of so far with the Twitter analytics but I am noticing that in the mornings and then later at night the activity seems to peak.

WEEK TWO

 In my opinion, Instagram seems to be the most geared towards personal use. Most social media platforms started as a way to keep in contact with friends and family but quickly evolved into a way to promote products and new businesses. One of the most groundbreaking social media sites is Facebook. I think that as social media has grown into a business platform that Facebook has stayed current and made their site something that would be great for not just socializing but promoting your company and connecting with interested customers.  One social media platform that is not geared towards business, in my opinion, is Twitter. Twitter seems to be one of the only sites that has not become a major business platform. Instagram seems to work great for both personal and business-related uses. "Influencers" can promote products for companies and make lots of money based off of the number of followers they have. It is not uncommon to see Instagrams with 200k+ followers posting ads ...

Week 16

I found that twitter really surprised me with all of the options it offered for marketing and ads and I was also shocked at the prices being so high.  Overall I find that Instagram offers really reasonable advertisement options and a ton of insights. I will definitely implement all of the skills and strategies that we learned about this semester into my marketing strategies for future business endeavors. I think that what platform works best for you really depends on what you're looking for and who your audience is.  It seems to me that the more time a business puts into their marketing efforts and social media the more results they will receive. If you are are not putting any effort into your social media then you won't have the same results as someone who is dedicated to reaching a bigger audience.  Daily goals would be to make sure I am active in at least some way once a day. This could be through following other accounts, liking similar busin...

WEEK 17 : Wrapping It Up

Over the semester we learned so much about social media and I really got to see another side to it that I had never really been involved with. I have always used social media as a way to connect purely with friends and family and stay up to date with what is happening in everyone's lives. It was really eye-opening for me to see the business side of social media and what a huge advantage it can be to any business. My viewpoint on social media has definitely changed. I am currently going to school to earn a degree in marketing. I have always thought of myself as outgoing and have worked sales jobs in the past that really showcased my best qualities. I feel that my major really combines my strong points and I will eventually land in a career that I will love. That being said it was awesome to really get to see the social media marketing world.  Social media marketing is such a huge part of today's society, the online world is really taking over and everyone is jumping on ...
