Week Sixteen: Visions 5 (Last Week!)

It's the last week of the semester for Visions, but that doesn't mean that I am going to stop! I already have a list of things that I need to do over break to bring the next semester in. First, and foremost, getting some contributors to the Indiegogo campaign! Then, I need to focus on research for Hootsuite and other programs that are similar (that I don't have to pay for).  The reason I didn't utilize it beforehand was because Facebook was the main outlet for social media and it already gave me the option to schedule posts ahead of time.  If I knew that I was going to be away from my computer, I would schedule posts.  I am going to do some more research about how to properly and effectively use Twitter and try to make that happen again.

Other than that, I am really exited to meet some new members at the social (which will also give us some great opportunities for social media ideas) and I am excited to really get into the grind of things next semester!

Week Fifteen: Visions 5 (through Thanksgiving and Party)

Over the break I worked on making and promoting the party event on Facebook, twitter and instagram! I was really excited that Ally was the first person to actually use the social media request. Indiegogo and party promotions continued.  I am researching more into Hootsuite now that facebook has taken away my ability to pre-schedule posts (something that was difficult to manage over the break).  I need to do some more research on twitter and how to market better with it. 

The party was great! I have still very few pictures (that haven't already gone up on social media). 

Week Fourtheen: Visions 5 (ends with Thanksgiving Break)

Things have not really changed for social media, other than promoting the party and promoting the Indiegogo.  I assigned everyone to promote their reasons for why people should donate on their personal pages.  I think that the Facebook likes are slowing down, we reached a really high number really fast and we have plateaued.  Twitter is not as popular, so I wanted to have a discussion about what we wanted to do with it.  Instagram is getting more popular, we just need to post more pictures and use more hashtags!
