Wrapping it up

This journey thru social media has been an enlightening experience.   It has definitely changed how I look at and use all the wide open options available.

For the business that I am helping market and bring into the social media age, this class has helped me explore new platforms.   At this point in time, the business has not grown but that’s ok. It has started getting a following both of customers who have already used the services or potential future customers.

I definitely have a better understanding for the options of social media and that it more than just sites like Facebook or Twitter.

Being able to see both the personal and the business side of the analytics has shown to me that businesses do use and look at the data to create new ads or marketing promotions.   That a business does not have to hire an expensive advertising firm or spends lots of money to get their name out there.   Social media now can personalize and more directly market to the customers a business wants to attract.

There are so many options out there and so many countless way to use them for both personal and business.  It has changed how I view it and how I will use it.

Taking a journey isn’t always about the travel – it also includes the learning and discovery of new things that change your life.
