Chapter 4

 Here we are in chapter 4 learning about how to properly market using Facebook which was created by accident by Mark Zuckerberg in his college dorm at Harvard University. The first thing that needs to be done before properly marketing is to first understand how you can use Facebook for marketing. After that you then need to know how to effectively create an account that showcases you as well as what you are marketing for everyone to see. After you have created your page, you need to fill it up with content from your business but not too much that it will bombard people with a ton of things and confuse them. After you have content about your business on your page you need to start to gain some followers so people can actually see what you are and see what you are about. After you get an audience of followers built up you are ready for your post. You will need to post things regarding your business and its involvement in the community so the outside world can understand what you are and what you are all about. When posting on Facebook you need to post at a scheduled time where you receive that most likes, views and shares so more people can interact and see the content. When COVID-19 was bad Facebook became the only way, some people could stay in touch with friends and others while also creating a huge marketing platform because nobody was at work and lots of people had Facebook. This made it so people could do their jobs while not directly talking to people face to face.

The Transfer from Wapakoneta

Here we are in our last month of classes. After this month is over, we only have a few days in May to take our exams and then we are off on summer break. I will be spending my weeks leading up to these exams studying a lot so I can keep my grades up. We just started our second week of spring practices this week. Things are starting to come to me quicker as I am still learning all the tag words and signals but overall, it is going well. This week my family and I have been planning our vacation that we are taking this summer and needless to say I am ready for summer. How is everyone else’s life going?

 Here we are another week down and things are still going well. We just got back from a nice surprise four day weekend because of snow. I spent my days from last Wednesday night to Saturday afternoon pushing and plowing snow from the cab of our skid loader. I plowed anywhere from 20-25 driveways during each day while pushing big industrial lots and gas stations in the nighttime. This left little time for sleep. Each day I was awake and pushing snow every morning by 4 a.m. and not being done until 9-10 p.m. in the evening. While I knew we were going to get some snow, but I was not totally sure how much we would be getting, I used my Facebook marketing knowledge to let the people know in my surrounding area that I would be cleaning driveways out for $25 a driveway. This led to people telling other people and the word got out and I got super busy. I was able to make quite a bit of money over this three day time period and help people of the community out. Did anyone else do anything o...

The Transfer from Wapakoneta

  Hi guys! Here we are in another week of classes getting ready to wind down to spring break. This week has been better than the past couple of weeks. It started off with a very productive weekend getting tons of stuff done along with helping out on the farm. I live on a farm that raises lots of cattle and pigs. We also farm a little over 2000 acres growing corn and soybeans. This weekend involved a lot of prep work getting the equipment ready to work the ground and plant the crops this spring. You wouldn’t think that there would be much to do in the off season when you aren’t in the fields all the time but thinking this would be wrong. In the off season we have to wash, wax, service and fix and replace all of the broken parts and pieces. Along with these things we have to market our grain and purchase the seed, chemicals and fertilizers that we will need for the next year. We are always looking to improve off of our previous season. We want to always gain a higher yield off of the...
