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 5 - Part 2 -Target Market Analysis for comparing if older adults and families can come together to frequent Coco's Restaurants or if there is too much difference. The target audience right now is 55 years and older, male, single, retired, educated, Caucasian.  Coco's has 38 locations in California and Arizona so many of the restaurants have different guests to focus on.  Some locations are in tourists areas like Anaheim and Brea so they focus on the traveler.  Some Coco's are in destination spots like in Monterey so they focus on the weekend couple.  Some Coco's are in neighborhoods so they focus on the elderly guest who frequents daily and it's his or her second home. Need to study industry and how guests see the Coco's name
Week 6 - Part II Define the difference between post reach and post engagement.  Post Reach is the number of people who saw my post and post engagement is when people click on lines on facebook Why is knowing the difference important?  To help measure effectiveness for social media campaigns.  Engagement is when the social media content is actually intriguing the customer so they click on a link (coupon) or something to learn more about the product or service.  Post Reach is just posting something the customer sees flash but cant be measured. After defining the terms, describe how a business can use Facebook Insights to better serve their customers.  Insight measures with graphs pages, posts and people - snapshots to show growth. DO NOT JUST COPY AND PASTE CONTENT FROM THE INTERNET - I will be looking for thoughtful responses and personal opinions here. Because insights are not available before you have 30 likes, many of you with brand new pages won't ...
Week 3 - Part 1 - Write: Blog Post Week 3 Part 1: Have you ever experienced difficulty communicating with a business?   I have written some businesses directly through email and 50% answer and 50% don't.  I have yelped a few times about businesses and I have never received a response.  A few times, I bought some products online and emailed and then a week later got a response, but it was a response like from a computer, like generic and didn't address the problem.  I don't call anymore to businesses as no one answers. Does social media make it easier to get noticed or get your problem solved?   Social Media, does resolve some issues faster like a bad restaurant or product.  Again, I have not had good success with a business getting back to me when I used a social media site.  Usually, I do the chat room thing, than call or use social media to address a problem. Have you ever had a positive experience communicating with a business through ...
