Chapter 8

 This week we are learning about the marketing value of Pinterest. Now I am not very good on Pinterest because I have never used it before so, please bear with me. Pinterest is a very different platform than last week’s Snapchat. Pinterest is a platform that was created in 2009 by college friends Ben Silbermann, Paul Sciarra, and Evan Sharp. They wanted to create a platform for people to show collections of things that they are interested in. Pinterest is another social media platform that allows you to market your business. As per usual you will need to create a target audience first so that you can create a category of business that you want to do business in. Next you want to create a profile using the business name and the businesses email. You will next want to create some Pinterest boards. Pinterest has a lot of different boards that you can pin to your profile. For example, for your business profile you can create product pin so people can add them to their boards and spread your business to other profiles on the platform. You want to strategize your posts so that they are posted in the most affective way to present to the potential customers.

The Podcast

We are on the discussion about Vlogs and Podcasts this week. Although these are not your typical social media platforms, they are very effective. It allows you to talk to anybody and everybody that is willing to listen and hear what you have to say, or you can listen to lots of other people as well. This week in class we did a podcast. We interviewed Coach Brandon Burge who is the strength and conditioning coach at Ohio Northern University. We asked Coach Burge a lot of questions this week. Our questions varied from- What made you want to become a coach? What is your favorite memory since becoming a coach? What is your favorite quote and why? Who is your idle or the person you look up to the most? What is your dream coaching job? Who is your favorite player Keith or Josh and why? I selected these questions to ask Coach Burge for my 5 minutes of the assignment. I am doing this assignment with Josh Andrews so he is going to take the other 5 minutes to ask Coach Burge some q...

The Transfer from Wapakoneta

Here we are again with another crazy week in week 13 or 14 I cannot remember which one it is, but all I know is that I have two more weeks of classes then I am done for the year. As many of you probably know, It is spring time and we are finally getting some nice weather this week. Being a farmer this time of year is very crazy and super busy. The ground finally broke the 55 degree mark this week so that means we can plant whenever the ground is dry. This week though has been crazy. It started Monday with working on the manure spreader. We have to spread manure from our pig barn and our cattle barns on the fields in the spring and fall. We do this before the cultivator goes through the field before the planter so that we make sure we work it into the soil and do not get the planter all dirty. We then spent Tuesday and Wednesday tearing the pump apart because it had a leak in it so we had to fix that. Once it was fixed we were finally able to start spreading. But today it decided to rai...

Chapter 13

In chapter 13 we learned about Integrated Media Communications. This is the use of promotional tools and marketing strategies to help develop the best way to market your goods and/or services. Integrated Media Communications are effective because you can use different platforms of media based upon which demographic you are looking to market to. We also learned about social media campaigns. These have been more popular in the recent years due to the fact that social media is trending and getting better each year. You can even buy and sell things through Facebook on their marketplace and even Instagram has a new feature now where you can buy and sell items.
