Assignment 3

Social Media of choice: Facebook

    I will start off first by saying that I started this class with no social media whatsoever. However, I have recently installed Facebook and Instagram for business and marketing purposes and this has been perfect timing for this assignment. I chose Facebook which is the social media I use the most for my business because it has a new feature called the "Meta Business Suite" which allows me to post simultaneously on Facebook and Instagram, all in one place. This also allows me to see demographics like what platform reaches what people and how many followers I have on both and which has seen the most audience improvement. This works perfectly with my marketing plan especially because it is completely free.  

    The first couple of days it took me a bit to still get used to the software and that is when I spent the most time getting comfortable with the business suite I even scheduled out postings to allow for seamless posting every day at set times to improve my time management. I normally use this once in the morning to check all the statistics and see what I have set to post for the day. Once again in there afternoon after my scheduled post to check for views and comments. Last I check during the late afternoon to see what is set for posting tomorrow and to see what posts get the most views and likes to tailor the future posts to the preferred material.

Below is my timeline for other past four days using Facebook:

 Feb 18th - 

    7:00am - 30 min, check my scheduled post and notifications. Looked over the features of the business suite. 

    12:00pm - 10, checked over my post to see current views and likes

Feb 19th -

    8:30am - 10 min, checked my post schedule again, and past likes

Feb 20th -

    7:00am - 30 min, check my scheduled post and notifications. Looked into video posts and future ideas.

    2:00pm - 10 min, checked post likes

Feb 21st -

    12:00pm - 10 min, checked my post to view it and looked over previous posts.

We Are Data: LJ2

     After reading parts of this book by John Cheney, it is clear that there is data collection in every aspect of our lives. The title quite literally says it all; we are data, and we are the ever-increasing information that is gathered and analyzed to create more automated systems in our society. The google automated "Celebrity Filter" is an example of how google used an automated function to determine what names were popular and what names are to be removed from the search results. With all machine learning, this comes with its downsides. For example, Cheney explained how Rhianna of course shows as a celebrity but her real name Robyn Rhianna Fenty does not meet the criteria. As Cheney states "The distinction is intriguing because it shows a gap, a separation that exists primarily at the level of knowledge. In this case, google isn't really assessing "fame". Google is creating its own, proprietary version of it." (Cheney, Preface 11).     Any operati...

Third Learning Journal

 This chapter spoke to me mainly in the business aspect of how social media can be helpful. Social Media can be an excellent way to advertise and market in today's society as it is the easiest way to reach more people. This is good for advertising and now with the marketing and data analytics many social media sites have; it makes it much easier to provide valuable statistics on bettering your marketing campaigns. you can get an average age, sex, location, and more on your results and this can show what demographic your products or services reach the most. This has convinced me to utilize social media more in creating advertising campaigns for my business "Suncoast Yacht Management" in which I use Facebook and Instagram for marketing and information. Social media can also be seen as free marketing because you can post and it can have a lingering effect on those who may find it later on without your interaction. This proves to be very valuable, however, I still would not u...
