A wonderful thing about one of the courses I’m currently taking is the ability to apply the lessons to my real-life business. Including the birth of this blog. I feel that over the past two weeks I’ve been immersed in a sea of social media marketing basics and I really look forward to the time when the application of these tools feels a bit more familiar and I’m not longer treading water, but familiar and fluent with the strokes.
That said, I am pretty giddy for having successfully launched and linked our latest Valentine’s Day promotional book sale to our company Facebook and Twitter pages (and right now on our blog!) as additional outlets to our email marketing promotions. Basic? Yes. But there is an undeniable thrill with just getting into the water.

That is the best thing about this class! So many classes I took in my undergraduate work were difficult to be passionate about because I knew they were not going to be useful in my daily life. This class has practical applications and can be used right now!
Yes, Kate! I love that its not just a project and instead I’m inspired to learn as much as I can knowing that its meaningful (and profitable, to be honest) in the long term. Even as I sometimes feel overwhelmed with the intricacies, I love it and wish I had jumped in sooner!
