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 social media?   I have not had a positive experience yet, I have emailed Starbucks and got a problem but resolved but again, that was not posting on a website for everyone to see.
  • If it was your own business on social media, how would you respond to positive or negative comments?  I would respond to negative reviews more generic so not to admit guilt or that there is a problem but to try to reach out to the guest and have him or her email a company email address to communicate.  That way others who visit this site, can see the company reach out but not omit there is an issue, as one might think its just the person leaving it on social media.  As we know, some people who leave issues on social media is leaving one side of the story.  I would say "thank you for letting us know of your unsatisfactory visit and management will be investigating and resolving any issues.  We would like to communicate with you, if you can email us at ???? and reference this post so we may communicate with you.  Thank you for helping us improve our operations.
  • Describe what made your experience negative or positive.  If a had an issue with say Starbucks and I posted that they got my order wrong, if Starbucks was to respond that they were sending me a free beverage or taking care of the problem then it would be a positive experience.  But if I post a negative post, and just get "thank you for your comments" then not I am not going to be satisfied.

Week 3 - Part 2 - Coco's Restaurants https://cocosbakery.com https://www.facebook.com/Coco's Bakery Restaurant There are no links on their website so I then went to their facebook page.  I noticed that the company were responding to comments made on facebook.  Usually replies were every 3 days and not on weekends or at night.  This company needs to post their social media sites on their website to help guests leave comments.  They could use social media better as I see their local promotions on facebook but its something that is on their website so you can see it there. Dennys Restaurants https://Dennys.com I went to their site and I noticed they have every social media site you can think of to click on to comment on visits and see promotions.  So I clicked on: http://www.facebook.com/Dennys This site is great, they have fun sayings about their food.  People are commenting and there is somebody answering the comments.  They have a rating tha...

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 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...
