Week 13 Part A- Online Advertising - Analysis of the Market Place

 Social Media Advertising 

In my experience with social media advertisements, they typically are aiming to promote something specific. The advertisements usually place an emphasis on things related to our interest or referenced from our search history due to the way our apps intertwine with another. This often occurs when we have a conversation with someone around us and then scroll through our feed on instagram and see a promotional ad for exactly what we were talking about. Most of believe that this is the government listening to us but this is the best way for businesses to make their most effective marketing promotion. 

When promotional ads are presented they typically do take advantage of the imagery, making it appealing to the eye and attracting consumers to their products. I think that this is one of the most important factors when promoting on social media platforms due to the fact that consumers are typically looking for things that catch their eye. I think another technique is to make an emphasis with the size of the font. A lot of the ads will be emphasizing some sort of discount which will likely be larger than the other lettering. 

I believe that in current times, social media advertising has become more beneficial and successful due to the fact that our modern society is more reliant on this method. We are increasingly moving away from things such as magazines, newspapers, etc. because of how prevalent technology has become in our every day lives. Having a history of working in retail, we quickly took advantage of the technological aspect of providing promotions on social media rather than trying to promote on paper or television. This seemed to engage more consumers and have a stronger outcome.

In researching the available tools this week, I found that there are various amounts of sources in which one has the ability to promote their business. I believe that in our current times, using online collaboration tools has become increasingly popular amongst the business world as so many people are participating remotely. An example of this could be through Microsoft Teams in which there are tools provided in the software that allow you to communicate and take the proper steps in order to enhance the project at hand. For social networking, I looked into what Hivebrite had to offer as it allowed for people to share their knowledge, collaborate, get feedback, and enhance opportunities. With a well organized platform like this, business owners and professionals will be able to efficiently make the neccessary adaptions to successfully  grow their business and brand.  I think that google offers so many tools that people tend to miss out on simply because they did not know that t...

Week 8 Part B: Your Hashtag Use

 In this weeks Facebook and Instagram posts, I decided to promote the Halloween holiday and promote a flash sale that will be occurring this week. I decided to schedule my posts so that they are spread out from one another and will have a presence each and every day of the week. I also incorporated a lot of the hashtags that dealt with the holiday while still incorporating hashtags that relate to the press on nail company. I feel like using both of these has the ability to reach different audiences that may just be looking for press ons or those who are in the spirit of having their halloween festive attire. I planned my post around the time that it seems my accounts get the most attention with is usually in the night time. So my post will be spread out this week around the 8pm to 9pm hours in order to gan the most recognition. This exercise made me focus even more on posting at the appropriate times and making the right posts.
