Week 1B: Blogs that I Commented on

-
This week I commented on three blogs so far.  Gustavo Molina, Justin Rivera, and John Giger are the blogs I commented on.  Each had their own influence on how to choose their templates.  I had my own influence which tells me that we are all different in our thinking when choosing our preferences.

    Hello Mark,

    I agree, keep it simple and build as you go. I find that too much detail can mix up the message that one is trying to get across. Good approach!

Week 16: Future Strategy

-
Going back to the beginning of the year, I have tried out and experimented with and learned about various social media tools. I also learned about the importance and difference between bad and good design, researching competitors and defining target markets.  Beyond just adding posts and updates to social media and blogs and having an email campaign, I also was able to experiment and learn about purchased ads as well as boosting posts on Facebook.  I was able to set up Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Blogger and LinkedIn accounts to experiment and get familiar with each tool as well as learn the names of other useful social media channels.

Week 11: Email Marketing

-
My business Mill Works makes signs and displays for businesses, so my emails and newsletters will consist of topics that relate to businesses, branding, logos and signs that they may be interested in.  Other topics will consist of tips and suggestions for displaying signs, and ideas they can do with their logos and branding items.  Others will be special promotions or discounts, special announcement or news that I may have.  I would send newsletters and emails about once every 2 weeks.  While Mill Works produces custom products and not products that are frequently needed, I would also not send emails frequently as to be too bothersome.  I want to provide quality content to my customers and keep items coming in as good content comes available that provides useful information.   Possible ideas I think my customers would enjoy seeing are: Tips for hanging signage Places to hang signage Why Signage still matters Show your logo proudly Required sign...
