Week 2 - Part 1

Week 2 - Part 1:

  • Facebook to me is more personal nature than business.. As you can share your daily thoughts as well as comment on your friends postings.  I enjoy looking at postings of pictures.  I don't use Facebook pages when I am inquiring information on a business as I find their sites annoying.  I do look up concerts by music acts using their Facebook pages.  I have been helping my dad navigate his Facebook page and helping him get in touch with his friends.   My granddaughter uses snapchat to be able to make funny faces on pictures.


  • Yelp. Trip Advisor & Twitter.  Yelp because it's designed to get limited business information such as hours, menu, and some reviews.  The posting site is for guests to post their reviews on their visit to these businesses.  With Twitter, my friends still don't use as it seems its used more by businesses and Sport Figures and Celebrities than regular folks. Google are good ones to leave reviews as well.  Trip Advisor I find helpful when  on a trip and visiting a place unfamiliar where to go when you are looking for a new restaurant or what is fun in the area.


  • I don't use Facebook  very much, maybe once a month.  Facebook works well to stay connected to friend's that you don't normally text.  I do know how to Yelp and post a review of a business and I do answer comments left on Yelp for my current job. Yelp is a great tool for businesses to read reviews and decide on a restauranat or service.  There are so many new social media sites that I don't know about and I will be having fun learning new ways to use social media.  Any help in this area is appreciated.

Week 16 - Part 1 - Create a schedule on which platforms

Week 16 - Part 1 -Create a Schedule on which platforms I enjoyed creating and posting on facebook and Instagram.  I feel these two areas the most effective way to grow our store's audience.  I would post once a month any new jackets that we received and build a mailing list.  I feel that our audience would be best fit if they saw some of our merchandise if it flashed on Instagram and facebook. New Arrivals - once a month When a major sporting event happens such as World Series, Super Bowl -send out a post When a new Sport Season starts such as when baseball or football starts I would post on face book and Instagram I would also write a monthly blog about a subject that is related to a sporting event. I will grow our eclub so we can send out coupons and offers on birthdays. I feel that blogging, face book, Instagram and newsletters will work best with our jacket store.  We can do $100 a month on social media posts dividing among face book and some goo...

Week 17 - Final Week - Summary - Susan Sullivan How has your social media changed over the semester? We had zero social media before I started this class.  Now we have a presence in all social media avenues.  Before, we didn't pay for any marketing, now all the marketing budget we have, I requested to be used for boost posts. Has there been an impact on your business? Yes, lot more awareness for the brand.  By seeing these posts (And I posted on the website of the mall the store currently is at and gave new pictures) we are seeing more people coming into the store and calling to ask about merchandise. Growth of customers and increased interaction is a key component? I paid for some boosts so I could study the analytics.  I studied Google and Face book and saw how many clicked, directions, checked pictures, when viewed and clicked.  This part was very interesting to me and I learned a lot.  I also made a group where I sent these posts and I think...

Week 12 - Part One- Using Yelp, Google My Business,  Bing I went ahead and created a Google My Business location site so now potential customers can write reviews, and I can answer them as well as get directions and hours of our location.  This is the site location for google my business: https://business.google.com/dashboard/l/14775070158524850291?hl=en I also went ahead and made a location for Yelp for Leather Direct Colorado and here is the link.  This way I can also answer reviews and customers can see hours of operation and location and what we do. https://www.yelp.com/biz/leather-direct-aurora-2 I also made an account for Bing, I just need to verify it when someone gets to the store tomorrow.  The store is in Colorado so I have to wait to call and get someone to do the code for me. Bing is great, as it shows at the top of search engines so this will be usefull tool as another social media site. Week 12 - Part Two - Discussion So I made a Yelp r...
