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 review and noticed t
Week 11 - Blog 1 There are certain email marketing letters I look forward in getting and there are some, I have to hit unsubscribe.  The store that I am representing does not have an online marketing store so I would include in our newsletter to try to get them into the building.  Since we gave no online store, I would send the newsletter out every month or every two weeks: *  I would show discounts of the month * I would build up our eclub by offering a 15% discount on the first purchase to bring into the store. * I would also include any events of star atlethes signing that customers would look forward to seeing and planning * The store is in the Aurora Mall so I would put what is happening in the Mall that month so people would anticipate this as well. *I would show new jackets and new clothes that came in *I would highlight a sport player or team that we have a lot of jackets OR a team doing really well or player and talk about that we have those jackets.

Weeky 10 - Blogging for Business - First Post Bogging for business is new to me. But after reading about blogging, I can see how this can help a service and business.  I went ahead and made a business blog, here is the link: https://leatherdirectcolorado.blogspot.com/2019/04/is-it-still-hip-to-wear-nfl- I added these blog icons to my pages to see how it would work.  I think if the blog goes out, it may engage potential buyers in buying jackets.  I can see how this would be good for professional services.  It is a good tool with a creative mind to make people aware of the service or business by reading a blog. Week 10 - Blogging for Business - Second Post I posted two facebook posts and scheduled them AND linked to Instagram with my blog tag. I liked all my classmates facebook pages, twitter and instagrams accounts.  I added comments to their posts. To stay organized on a blog, I would map out the month and blog same time each week.  I would plan ahead of times topics
Week 8 - Post 2 I used sport search words to find organizations that related to my business, Leather Direct.  So I put in team names and followed those sports teams.  I also, put in the Aurora Town Mall where the retail shop is located.  I found it very easy to find organizations to follow and I am following over 70 different sports organizations. I created a tweat and I just put "Is the Team to Beat" and I put a picture of a Patriot Jacket and a Patriot Emoji and tweated.  I also retweeted a tweat about Von Mill as stepping up to be the team captian for the Broncos this year. I feel the right time to tweet is at 8pm when sports are on and people are watching sports and tweeting. I created a list of Broncos followers and tweated to all those I am following a picture of a Bronco Jacket with a tweet saying "Whoose House, Flaco's House So I know twitter is simple and less words to get the point across. I have never used twitter before, so it was fun making a
