Write a short analysis of each businesses use of social media
- Are these businesses using their social media well? Do they use some more than others?
 Most of the sites barley use social media and some don't even use at all. They usually post something
on like getting a project done or something small like small brand designs. One site doesn't have a
social media link at all. The CMG Creative Studio only has a portfolio page on what they did. 
After individually analyzing each of the 5 businesses, write several paragraphs explaining
what you discovered collectively from this exploration. 
 While researching the sites I anted to post I noticed they only post on social media when a big
project is done. As designer projects can take weeks or months at a time depending how big the project
is. If the client provides materials to use it can make a project go fast and smoothly. These projects are
big and designers go all out and they focus more on the project than social media. 
  For web design making a working site that is mobile friendly and have working links can take two
months when the client does not provide photos. When they do it can take a month at the fastest.
Lots of work goes into creating brands, Logos and working websites for companies. When the job is
done then the company post what they done on a portfolio page and a social media platform.
  What I have been taught is that maintaining a social media presence is a lot of work. Some companies
will even hire a person to maintain it. Even for people that have their own companies it can be
overwhelming at times. So the project is first at all else and when they are done they post as much as
they can before starting a new project.

Week Two Part 1

Which social media platforms seem geared towards personal use? Why do you think so?     The platforms that I believe this works well for personal use will be Slack and Linkedin. These sites help the individual on job hunting and build a network. The other will help the individual at a company. The Department will use a communication app so all personal in that specific department can communicate with one another easily.     Slack is a good app for a company to use. For example when I was in the Media Arts and Technologies class Advance Design. The professors of that class told us that slack is a good way to communicate with our assigned team members for client design projects we will work on. Slack was useful so I can go on one team I was in and communicate with them on project due dates, design critiques and revisions. It is a useful app for company use like a tech firm or other companies that are team and department oriented.   Linkedin was a good way to find a job and help to

Week 17 Final Post

     What my experience  for this class is that I learned a lot during this very hectic semester. I learn how to run a social media page for a company and how much studying and training goes into when running a business social media page. I get to see the cool side on running a few. For example I learn what google analytics was and it opened something new. I learned what parts of a bushiness page is important for a audience. Like a YouTube page or a twitter page that has fun jokes like this Tweet .    I wasn't that interactive since I had problems with work. Other classmates had a great ideas for their fictional and non fictional business. My favorite Company was Rebel Rose Designs . The site has good deals and it comes in cute packages. Glad I got one for a Christmas gift Idea I am making. Viewing everyone social media page is pretty cool I get a glimpse of what they like and see how they help their business grow. The coolest twitter accounts are the Margarita Man accou

Week 12

     We live in a world that everything is connected and people are always on their phones. Due the convenience of having the internet on the go. Many companies are using mobile friendly websites for their companies. They also have a presence on social media for example Instagram. Instagram has a new feature that is called the shop section in the explore page. You can see products and see how much they are on the view products tag on the post.    Since my fictional company has a physical store and a social media presence I can integrate the Instagram shop feature. I can rely a little bit on Yelp.com for good reviews but I’m a little put off with it since online trolls, competition and crazy teenagers can send bad reviews for the company. Linkedin is a perfect way to find new employees and see what the competition is like. Google maps is good to have site location available for all to locate.    I created a Linkedin page for CapstoneCrystal.inc. I looked up groups and found groups
