Social Media: Engage, Inform and Entertain

We are nearing the end of my Social Media Marketing class, which means, I don't have to continue with the blogs, if I choose not to, however, I really have enjoyed this portion of my class and will continue to write my weekly blog for Pose Photography. I hope that I was able to make the posts interesting and informational for my followers that I gained along the way. 

Without further ado, the top three picks of Social Media platforms from Pose Photography's standpoint were:

Facebook-Because it took my photography business to another level with being able to really utilize and understand how Facebook posts could engage potential clients locally and get them talking about my business. 

Twitter-I didn't really understand what Twitter was all about when I started this class, however, I've found that I like this platform a lot! I like to be able to follow other photographers from all over the world, so see their work, get insights into different photography styles and some of them are following me as well, and that's pretty cool!

Pinterest- This is something I have grown to really love as well, because it's all about pictures, for the most part. I can post my best photography work here and reach a whole different audience. My favorite thing about Pinterest is having someone from New York, "pinning" my photos. Between Twitter and Pinterest, this means that my work is going all over this great country of ours and globally, and I find this amazing; that other people, besides friends and family, think my work is good enough to share! Wow...just wow.

Out of my core classes for my program, this is the one class that I was really looking forward to the most. I wanted to learn how using social media platforms could draw in business, of course, but also to learn how to fine-tune posts to engage, inform and entertain current and potential clients.

Thank you to Laurie Boettcher, my instructor (pictured right), for pushing me out of my comfort zones and doing that in an exciting way, and above all, for making it as much fun as it was challenging. You get my "Woot" award!

Have a Safe and Happy Thanksgiving!
