MKTG 347 Week 1 - Why We Should Learn How To Market Through Social Media?

Social Media Marketing can help me as an Accounting major gain experience, skill, and background in other business fields. I want to get to learn more about the business world, how to network, and communicate in different ways especially through social media, which is a major platform today. Getting to know and how to use social media will help me because I am not as skilled with social media as others in my generation. In my opinion, if I can learn and gain more experience marketing through social media, I can help improve my skills in the business world. I can communicate with many different types of people throughout the world and it can help for example if I ever run a business or company, reach a larger audience.

I have always believed that the best way to communicate or get word out to others, is through social media because most of the population is always checking social media. With accounting it can be harder to market through social media, it is not a skill everyone has. It is something different than just doing accounting-related work. Marketing is something many people, especially people interested in the business world, should learn to do. We should always be marketing ourselves and our brands. With social media, it makes a lot better and more creative to market. We can get word and advertising out to larger audiences through different types of social media such as Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, and more. These forms of social media can help spread word so fast, because that is how people connect. Networking with one person can connect you with so many more!
