Power of social media

This week real life, my job and my school all coordinated together!  It was time to study social media for my class, I have been working hard to be more consistent and develop my social media presence and I am currently at a convention where we talked about...social media.  It was like a little in depth social media education for me this week.

I am super grateful that we learned about google adwords and analytics and everything else we have studied this semester, but I truly feel like social media is the place where I can truly impact my business.

My goal is to continue to post consistently on facebook and to expand my postings on instagram and pinterest.  In addition, I want to make sure I am promoting my products.  While I think there should be a good blend of posts that just provide information, with promotional type posts... I think that sometimes I just post info and I don't really ask for the sale....

In a weird coincidence, I also saw the power of social media this week.  While we were at convention my buddy Gail and I decided to post a few videos about our experience to our team page.  Well after just one or two silly one minute videos, we suddenly had a following.  Even people here at the convention had seen them and asked if we would doing more.  We even had people volunteer to be "special guests" on our" show.  I posted all these videos on our private team page, but I am definitely trying to figure out a way to capture that same enthusiasm so I can do something as rewarding to promote my website.
