Week 6A: Facebook Part 1


Facebook has become a major tool for businesses and advertisers around the world. It allows them to reach a wider demographic than previously possible. However there is a difference in the way that these people and profiles interact with your content. Two examples of this are engagement and reach. “Post reach” is how many people and which ways your content reaches users. It’s basically shows you your audience and who has the possibility of seeing it but not whether or not your audience actually interacts with it. “Post engagement”, believe it or not, shows your how your audience engages with your content. It shows you if they visit your page, comment on it or download any of your content. It’s important to know the difference because if your audience is not interacting with your content you are less likely to do well. While reach is an invaluable tool in advertisement, reach is what gets your customers and audience interested in your product and brand. It also allows you to plan future goals for engagement. Facebook has a specific tool for this called Insight. Facebook Insight allows businesses to track page views, previews, likes, reach, videos and recommendations. Businesses can use these tools to see how to better reach their audience and improve their content. Overall, Facebook is a great asset for businesses and helps them improve their brand and reach farther than ever before.

Week1A: Template Theme

For as long as I can remember I have been a very indecisive individual. I have always liked things in a very particular way and to no surprise this situation was no different.  To be honest with you all, the last word that anybody would describe me as is tech-savvy, which is hard for me to admit considering I have grown up in a society completely immersed in technology. So as you can imagine, trying to navigate a website I've never heard of to try and create a blog (something I never thought I'd do) was far from a relaxing process.    I get easily overwhelmed with too many choices and with something that I'll be using for an extended period of time, who could blame me for being picky. I'm not going to lie and say that most of that time I spent on here wasn't wasted on trying to figure out how to navigate this site, cause it was. I had been going back and forth on a theme for almost an hour prior to narrowing in ...

  Nowadays we have so much variety when it comes to what we choose to expose ourselves to on the internet and on a daily basis , those options are expanding. By being in the midst of this ever expanding digital age , there are so many options on how to create our online imagine. When it comes to social media specifically , we have options like Facebook , Instagram , Snapchat , Twitter and so many other random platforms in between.

Week 14: Developing Online Advertising

Image
      This is an example of ads I would use for my social media accounts for Cousha Coffee. I feel that these would be effective because although they are basic in nature, they let new customers know about my store and how and where they can visit. In addition, when it comes to advertising for your store there is usually an objective that guides it. This can range from any kind of call to action or it can be used to update, to influence or to remind customers about your store and products. When it comes to these objectives, I think it would be most useful to inform customers about my products and what my business is all about because it is brand new and people know nothing about it. I think I could use multiple objectives for my business as it grows and gains popularity. An example of this would using an advertising campaign to influence customers that visit other coffee shops and explain to them why mine is a product they should try as well. I also would...
