Week 10

    For success stories on I can think of is a new type of entertainment and also counts as a business. The people who post videos on Youtube. They all come from all walks of life and they gain a huge audience. They started out as people who worked at poorly run part time jobs and some cant even work at all found success on Youtube. 
   They have a online shop that they sell products. Most of the time they will promote other companies like the website building company Wix.com, and Sqaurespace.com. They all have beginnings and story videos called Draw My Life explaining how they came to be. In other words their own success story. I have a few links that I believe is my personal best and great example of this topic.
Shannon Gurman: Shgurr

Note: I may get depressing and dark cause she comes from a dark background. She talks about suicude so there is a trigger warning.
Mark Edward Fischbach: Markiplier

   Another example of a success story is from an entrepreneur John Paul Jones DeJoria who was homeless and bounced back and started a well known hair product line known as Paul Mitchell. He was homeless since he was struggling to find a job and made homemade hair products that he sold on the side. He released that he did great selling his hair products and wanted to help other small hair salon businesses to achieve great success in their business and so the owners and workers don't end up homeless. Now he has a multi billion dollar company and donates a lot of the proceeds to homeless shelters and services round the planet earth.

    I knew about this story cause his company goes out and look for small hair salon shops so they can sell their products and help their company grow. The same thing happened to my Grandmothers hair salon called The New Look Salon in Vista City. I remember reps coming in and telling her they want to help her salon in anyway they can when I was a child.

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
