This week, I have learned the importance of hashtags, relatability, and consistency throughout marketing campaigns.  Hashtags are a valuable resource that connect certain information together in one location.   The use of hashtags will allow others to easily navigate from our presented information to other related info, while simultaneously offering information that can be found when looking up the hashtag.  This is a way of getting our posts to be viewed in higher quantities, as well as directing our audience to similar information shared by like companies.  Similarly, I found it beneficial to keep consistent hashtags so that people are well-aware of our contents implications and can use one click (the hashtag) to access like information. I also learned the importance of knowing and appealing to certain audiences, as relatable content is often more favorable by audiences.  For example, Instagram typically has a younger audience, so it is beneficial to choose content that would appeal more to that particular sector of career development seekers.  Lastly, I realized the importance of physical appeal, as observations of our most well-received posts revealed that certain images that were more appealing to the eye caught the attention of our audiences more consistently.  This will all be beneficial in creating content for future posts and widening, engaging, and maintaining our audiences.

Through my work this week, I have realized firsthand the benefits of working closely with others within the company, as well as reaching out to a broader group of people within the sector as a whole.  This way, a vast array of information can be presented to our audiences, while allowing different approaches to be shared that are beneficial to creating a wholesome marketing campaign.  I also realized the importance of seeking outside sources for assistance in creating a more successful marketing campaign, as this research can help you learn what does and doesn’t work for other companies with similar end goals, using this as a guide for your own company rather than testing everything on your own.  After research, I better understand how media communications intertwine with one another and the importance of these relationships, as well as the effects certain content has on particular audiences.
