Build that Audience

 This week, the chapter was over how to market with Facebook. Facebook is a social media platform that is one of the most used social media platforms to date. There are many tips talked about in the chapter to market using Facebook, but what we haven't talked about in class yet is building an audience. 

Building an audience is crucial to succeeding on the app Facebook. To maximize your business or whatever else you are working with it is important to tailor your content to a specific audience you are trying to reach. However, first, you must begin to make friends on Facebook. You must start small and contact some of the people that you know and then start broadening your horizons to people you are trying to connect with. 


I know whenever I go on social media and start following people I start to try to connect and become online friends with people in my own field. This could be people that are currently in the sport management/public relations field. This could also be alumni of the university that went through the program. It could also be professionals in the field that you are interested in. If you connect with those people and begin to form a relationship with those people that could help you in the future down the road. What can also help is that when followers of this professional see that the professional is following you then their followers will start to connect with you and could broaden your brand and make it better.

Building and marketing your brand on Facebook is easier than it is set it out to be. In my opinion, starting with building your audience is crucial. Once you have a good following and start to connect with more people then it will be easier for when you do post content, the content will be seen by so many more people than if you didn't already establish a good audience.

Football is Over

 After days of practices, meetings, and games, it hurts to say the 2021 football season has come to a close. I know it hasn't necessarily been one of the better years this program has had but I loved every second of it. There really is nothing like going out with your brothers and playing 60 minutes of football, the game you love the most. If you haven't seen it already we lost in a devastating fashion. We lost on a hail mary ball in the endzone with 8 seconds left after driving down and scoring 30 seconds before that. That was the part that really stung. We, underclassmen, were doing everything in our power to try to send these seniors out on top and it just didn't work out. Now it is time to move on as much as it hurts. I am now a junior football-wise and the preparation for next season starts now. I definitely need to get to work this offseason. Last year we never really had an offseason. Since the Covid year moved everything to the spring we never really had any time of...

Thanksgiving Break

 Right about this time in the semester I really fellow students and I really start to get warn out of school. Schoolwork right around this time always heats up. Many of my classes are holding exams this week which puts on added stress with all of my other activities going on. What I really want and what my of my classmates want to come sooner is Thanksgiving Break. I know I am ready for it. Every day I wake up I am exhausted because I was up late doing homework the night before. I am also on football so the time where I could be doing homework and catching up on some sleep, I am at football and devote my time to that. Even though many students are not in athletics I can tell many of them are mentally drained. Many students are starting to not give sufficient effort to homework or exams anymore because they are just tired of it. I know I fall right into that category. These are a couple reasons why I am ready for Thanksgiving break. Having the opportunity to go home for a week and b...

Friendsgiving

I had one of the best meals that I have had in a while last night. About twenty of my friends got together and had one big meal before we all went our separate ways for Thanksgiving break. The meal was especially good because it was prepared by one of my friend's mom. In the past, she has come up to campus to make us a home-cooked meal throughout the week and it is always so delicious, so I had very high expectations for this meal. It definitely did not disappoint.  This meal was a full Thanksgiving feast. Any food that you could have wanted on your Thanksgiving table was there. For the last couple of meals, I have been eating at the Wow Café here on campus and I was completely tired of it. So when my friend told me his mom was coming up, I was so excited. Our friend group definitely struggles with finding food to eat sometimes, so it is almost refreshing to not have to find something to eat. I am truly blessed with some of the best friends a guy could ask for. There aren't a l...
