Week 14: More Social Strategy

Week 14: More Social Strategy
Chapter 14 Likeable Social Media

This chapter is just what I have been saying. Now days you have to have a whole company behind you just for the public media side of business. Things are changing and some task are easier. But the importance of acting as quickly as possible to peoples post blogs and tweets can mean the difference of being in business or being behind the times and out of business.

The enthusiasm or lack there of for a type of media is often shared along with the posts we write.

Ya  got me there lady, My friends say that they can read right through me. So I am sunk here!
I have learned a little trick here and there but I guess this course just covered a side of cloud computing I just never had the use for. And if I had taken this course 20 years ago I might have a little more knowledge and greater respect for those who do use it regularly.

Now you can focus in on what seems the most effective ones to use. 
- Which work best on a daily use pattern?

A pattern is what you do on a regular bases.
Everyone has their own way of going about it.
And with so many different ways to do them  the best way is what works for you.
 

Those who are really on top of things use Twitter and Facebook, and a host of other portals to keep in touch with everyone every second of the day .
Planning for post to go out, making new links on your web page, answer question or respond to e-mails , compose e-mail and all the other work that needs to be done. There is no set way of scheduling.

- Which can you still use effectively on a much less frequent time schedule? 
Using some of the apps you can make getting what you want done over several different sites done quickly. The ability to use scheduling makes a good portion of work easier.   
 
 -Which have you enjoyed using the most?
There are so many that I have learned that I have not had the time to use and ENJOY them.

I don't know about you but after this class if I never run into ,come across or hear someone use the word "BLOG"
I am going to explode. I never want to use one, read one or talk about someone Else's  blog.
I will be so glad when this class is over. I am going to delete everyone of those blog post I did and I hope and pray that no one saw any of them.

This would have been nice to read is about 8 weeks ago.


Blog Post:
Considering the variables from recent lectures, decide which tools from the semester you would implement in your online marketing strategy.
I would have to take a year or two just to get use to using all the things there are to use.
Strategy is a word that implies that you have goals that are far reaching. I just got started again in a new life and my goal is to live without pain. A new job may be out of the question.
 
How much time do you think your business should spend on social media marketing and why?

In your blog, please explain why you chose the tools you did, and how you might use them to use and test a strategy over the next six months.


Plot out a rough draft plan of the next month of content across the sites you’ve chosen, and how you hope they might grow or sustain your business. Be as detailed as possible, including daily or weekly time requirements to meet the goals.


Well I will have to take a pass on this one. I have no real site to begin with.
 Next month I go back into surgery and I will only have one hand for the rest of the summer.

So once this class is over everything gets deleted until next year when I decide what to do. I know that I have been taught a lot of good tricks about getting the message out to people.
