Wow, every week now there is something really new.
Admittedly I haven't taken Marketing classes and maybe my thinking is skewed and I'm missing an opportunity. Having said that, I'm selling a product that most people use, even if they're buying drugstore brands and Dove soap.
After looking at and reading through all of the material on the different platforms, I think I would use YouTube and Pinterest to promote my business.
YouTube::
I think YouTube would be great for teaching and demonstrating techniques and product choices. When anyone I know wants to learn something YouTube is the first place they go...
Pinterest::
I think it would be fun to use pictures with a small amount a text attached, like little mini webpages. Or, they could also be designed to mimic magazine ads. Maybe you could even run a little contest or something to keep people coming back. Or maybe, just maybe I could show pics of happy clients, with their permission of course.
Tumblr::
I don't think this would be a useful vehicle for my business. The examples seemed like diminutive websites, which for my needs would be redundant.
Instagram::
Photographs are a beautiful medium, they tell a story, but I couldn't see how it would be useful for my business.
That's all for now... more later!
