Summary of what 5 people/organizations I have decided to follow on Twitter and how following these Tweets will help you to build your brand. Summarize the strengths and weaknesses of using Twitter as a SMM tool.

Jacob Cass
Fashionista.com
VOGUE JAPAN
H&M
Valentino

I have decided to follow these people/organizations. At first, for the reason that I followed Jacob Cass, he is a popular graphic and logo designer and I think that his tweets will help me to apply to my designs when I decide how to choose a color and logo for my brand. In addition, Fashionista.com and VOGUE JAPAN are useful to get information about the latest trends in beauty world including fashion and cosmetics. H&M is fast fashion and Valentino is high brand. By following these different kind of brand, I am thinking that I will be able to understand their different strategies on SSM. Besides, they tell me trends and new ideas.


I think that the strength of using Twitter as a SMM tool is that twitter by nature is public. When people are tweeting, it basically goes to the entire universe. Compared Twitter with Facebook, Facebook is private and people talk about something with only friends. On the other hand, Twitter by nature is open. Therefore, if you are a marketer and anyone wants to find someone with talking about your products or brands, its very easy for you to target and find them because  Twitter has large keywords and hashtags to search. Spreading tweets instantly and sharing them around the globe is also a nature of Twitter and it is a kind of strength as a SMM tool; however there is a only a fine line between strengths and weaknesses. I think that one major of the weakness of utilizing Twitter for business is that tweets that companies post in public can be held directly against the company. Companies are exposed to malevolent and adverse accounts created by persons whose only purpose is to damage the company's reputation and impression. Spammers, scammers, trolls and all other types of malevolent individuals are always nitpicking and they plot to spread harmful information and fake story.

As you, I think that hashtags and keywords are very helping on Twitter because you just have to tap them to know what everybody is saying about it and you can learn a lot of things thanks to that. It can helps you to improve your brand and to spread your image everywhere in the world.

    Hi!

    I Agree with your statement that Tweets goes around the world and that is public. That's a point I did not think of. I think the people/ organizations you are following are a meanifgful source of information if you want to work in the fashion/design industry.

Run stats on your personal(Facebook, Blog, LinkedIn, Twitter) sites, instructions will be provided in Moodle. Post a summary of your findings on your Blog. Blog I posted 8 articles, and I got 11 comments in total. I got the most comments on Sunday. I learned from case study that the week has the greatest number of views for blogs is Monday. I posted it late at night on Sunday. Therefore, I guess everyone see it on Monday and gave me many comments. Also, I guess that Monday is the beginning of a week and people reset the feeling by reading blogs. Another reason is that people enjoy the weekend and their leisure time and do not have time to access to blogs. I my opinion, the Week 2 post got the highest view because I started posting a link to the article on my blog. Therefore, many people in particular, my friends on Facebook came to see my blog just wondering. Facebook I learned that I need to focus on not only "Like" but also "Talking About This" on Face...

 Blog a summary of the case and your findings of your case study.  Highlight the top 3 most important lessons learned from the case study.  Explain why these lessons are important in order to help you to formulate effective strategies in social media. This week I learned social media strategies through case study.  First of all, I think that it is significant that almost 80% of the population in the United States is centralized in the East Coast because I have to take into account if I establish my company in the U.S.. The best time to post for a United States audience to reach the most people. This will help me to get more traffic, more engagement, and more followers. In addition, I learned that I need to focus on not only "Like" but also "Talking About This" on Facebook. "Taking About This" is the number of people who have created a story from your page post.It indicates how well a page is engaging fans, not simply how popular something is, and ...

Discuss why it is important to market yourself? How can you build your brand online? -I think that marketing myself is important because it is an effective way to sell myself to a company that I want to work in. Showing my interests, passions and personal skills is available to know a more human side by employers. In addition,  marketing tools I have to market and promote myself are either free or low cost that is not a burden to me. In other words, I can market and promote myself easily because of free. Therefore, marketing myself is important to administrate a business in a familiar manner. -The first step to build my brand online is starting a blog that has a lot of impacts and unique design because it has a good first impression and plays a important big visual role.
