Week 13 A



Five businesses social adverting styles & their effectiveness -

The company We Buy Houses and Cash For Homes Group advertising are really effective. Their promotional pieces are a combination of “We buy houses” images and testimonial videos. We Buy Ugly Houses and Cash for Home advertising consist of just pictures. I feel like both companies ad strategies are not as impacting when compared to pages like We Buy Houses. More Cash For Homes advertising consists of testimonial videos only. As a consumer, I feel like testimonials are really powerful as it builds a level of trust and credibility.


The overall effectiveness of advertising on social media sites. - 

Imagery does draw me in. If the image has an attention-grabbing color, it will usually make me stop what I am doing to read the ad. Some companies on Facebook and Instagram are really good with image base adverting. I have to say I do get kind of annoyed at Facebook advertising why watching a video on your news feed. I feel like plugging a 10 second “mini commercial” while watching a 3-minute video is a little unnecessary.


Traditional  VS  Social Media Advertising. - 

When being exposed to new things, I would say traditional adverting is more effective with me. I feel like the social media advertising I see regularly is circled around filter bubbles. So ads based on my click behavior is not as effective to me. Now for products I've been exposed to, social media advertising tends to be more effective.

Week 10 A - Appealing To Peoples Emotions

When writing a blog, in the beginning, you are basically faceless. By letting people know there is an actual person behind the words on the screen can spark a connection with you and the customer. Ultimately, adding human interest to your blog allows your readers to connect with you and your business in a more personal and relatable way. For me, reading a blog post that is similar to a personal life experience draws me in to read more. I am also emotionally connected with the writer and become more engaged with their content. Effective human-interest blogs can result in your company differentiating itself from their competition. When a human-interest post is well written, it will captivate their audience, and through its uniqueness, produce a bigger fan base and consumer interaction. A human-interest post may be less effective if you are guest blogging for a company. Especially if you are writing from the standpoint of your own personality while disregarding the company’s ...

Week 16

The social media platforms I enjoyed the most were Facebook, Instagram, and Email marketing via Mail Chimp. I learned so much with the Facebook marketing tools and was proud of what I was able to create for my company. I’m a big fan of Instagram and I enjoy its easy to use platform. With Mail Chimp, I was able to tap into my creative side and design a newsletter that reflected my company’s personality and mission statement. Finding the right type of social media platform for your business is extremely important in today’s world. Social media allows companies to interact with their consumers as well as learn about their audience demographics.

With a weekly email marketing campaign, I am able to strengthen the relationships with my clients and build credibility. With Facebook, I can engage ...

Week 11 - Email Marketing

Newsletters – A marketing tool that is immensely effective and valuable for new and existing businesses alike. Email marketing allows your company to stay in contact with your consumers, increase brand awareness and build customer loyalty. Not only that, but newsletters also adds value to your company’s brand. The key to email marketing is staying consistent. Consistency builds trust and reliability. In return, your business can be seen as an expert in its field through its content. It is because of this, I do believe His and Hers Real Estate Investments would benefit tremendously with email marketing. The type of content my newsletter will entail are as follows: Tips on How to Sell Your Home, Real Estate Educational Guides, Market Trends and Tips on How to Save Money Before Purchasing your First Home.  My email marketing campaign would be set up to send monthly newsletters to my subscribers.  I feel like weekly would be a bit bombarding in the long run.  I want m...
