Marketing with LinkedIn

 The past couple of social media platforms that I have been talking about in my blogs have been less formal, but what I am going to talk about today is more professional. LinkedIn is the most professional social media network out there. LinkedIn has over 740 million users in over 200 countries. Like many other social media networks, it is global. The main purpose of LinkedIn is to connect with professionals around the world, advance careers, stay in touch with industry news, etc. By 2004, the platform reached 1 million professionals and by 2007 it reached 10 million. This was a relatively fast-growing industry. The philosophy has not changed from the start of the network to what it is now. It is to connect with people in your field and related fields. 



For my future career, I would like to work in the sports industry. I currently have a LinkedIn account and have connected with many people in my field. Based on just my LinkedIn account I have been able to have interviews with many people in my field. Who knows I might use those interviews to help me get a job in the future. I have also connected with people in various industries that are ONU alums which can also help me get a job in the future. I just started my LinkedIn account recently, but I know I will use it in the future.

    Hi Noah, I liked reading your post about LinkedIn. I like how you stated what you want to do in your future and how you plan to use this app to help you out with that. It is good to use it very well because it probably the best app to help with your future.

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...

Chapter 1 Material

One of the biggest concepts I comprehended out of the content in chapter one of the introduction of social media is the different advantages and disadvantages of social media. I want to focus on the advantages. Some of the advantages of social media include being able to build your brand, communicating with family and friends, and capturing memories. The most important advantage from the chapter for me is being able to connect with family and friends while also collecting memories along the way. Family and friends are two of the biggest components of my life and they always will be. Being away from my family and friends during college can be very stressful. I am very guilty of relying on my mom and dad to do many things for me. Even though I am a sophomore now, I still am trying to adapt and settle in to do things on my own. Even though I struggle at times, the access to social media has given me the opportunity to connect with my family and friends so I feel like I have a little bit o...
