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.

Coming to an End

 If you are following the football team and our season, you know that this is the season's last week and last game. I am not going to lie, it has been a very long season for us. We are currently 2-7 which is very unfamiliar territory for many players on our team. In high school, I never had a season with more than 3 losses, so this has been relatively different for me.  Even though our record doesn't show it, this has been the closest team that I have been a part of since coming to campus three years ago. In the future, that is what we are all going to remember. We are going to remember the relationships that we formed and that are going to last for the rest of our lives.  Some of the seniors that are graduating have been some of my best friends for the last three years. I actually live with two seniors that are graduating now. As this week has gone on and we continue to do events for senior week, it has gotten to be very emotional. I still don't think it has hit me that so

Bounce Back

The game on Saturday was not fun. If you don't already know we got upset very badly at Musky. I don't think anyone on the team really expected us to lose this game. We had an iffy week of practice, but I don't think anyone really predicted that we would end up losing the game. In my personal opinion, I thought that we were the better team with more talented players, but we just didn't get it done. I felt embarrassed and upset after this game. I was in pure shock. I had a long bus ride home to think about how the game went as a whole and what we exactly did right and wrong. I did a lot of soul searching on the way home and I realized that I have to be better and it starts now.  What is most important now is to bounce back. There is no point in dwelling on this game anymore. There is nothing that we can do about it anymore so we shouldn't think about it. The only thing that we as a team can do is to bounce back. It all starts during practice. Everyone knows the saying

Much Needed Break

 Last week we students here at Ohio Northern University finally got our Thanksgiving break. I talked to many of my friends and classmates around campus about the break and they all agreed with me that this break was very much needed. It has been a long semester for many of us and the break gave us time to recharge and get ready to get through these last 3 weeks of school and do well on our finals before we get a month off for Christmas break. I did many things that helped me relax and recharge over break. The most important thing that I did was SLEEP. It was very nice not having to wake up at 8 am and attend a class. Getting the opportunity to sleep in my own bed and sleep in was so refreshing. It was also good to see some friends and connect with people from back home that I haven't seen in a while. On Friday, I hung out with some of my childhood best friends from home and it was awesome to see them. I haven't seen them in forever and it was great to catch up. On Saturday, I g
