Week 10A: Researching Email Marketing

1. I think I should send two emails per month. The reason I think this is a good schedule is because we are a weekly delivery service. I think that by sending a newsletter every 2 weeks it will remind customers to reorder product if they have run out, and remind those who have been meaning to try it that we're here. I also would like for this newsletter to be interesting and something customers actually want to read. If I send out newsletters too frequently, they will inevitably get annoying and start to be ignored. 

2. Some of my ideas for this newsletter are updates on children's nutrition. I would look at recent studies, books, articles etc. and use them as a starting point to write a quick but insightful newsletter that teaches something new about child development. I also think it would be fun to share recipes on the newsletter, similar to my idea for a blog. Each newsletter will feature a new recipe that can be made using our products. I also think it would be great to update about any new work we are doing with local vendors. A major piece of my business model is that we work exclusively with local organic farms. I'd love to update our email list whenever one of our farmers has an exciting update on their business, or let them know when a new produce has come in season! I want it to feel like a community update and not just an ad. It could also be interesting to sometimes share a customer story, something that the readers can relate to. For example, if we have a client that wishes to share how introducing NuNu into their families routine has helped improved their toddlers behavior. For example this is a post from a children's supplement company that explains how adding key nutrients to their children's diet has helped with their temperament issues. Lastly, I will feature promotions and coupons on the newsletter that are only available via email subscription (for example, Holiday Promo!)

Week 14A: Social Media Management Tools

Nunu is currently a one person operation, two if you include my mom helping me watch after the baby! Because of this, I feel that SocialPilot will be the best social media management service for me. They do not offer a free service but their paid plan is very affordable, the basic version being $42.50 a month which allow access for up to three users. This plan helps in scheduling posts for up to 20 social media accounts. They will also give analytics of accounts and help with customer support. I don't think that I will be using any management service initially. The daily operation for my business allots for an entire day dedicated to social media and community outreach. See below: Saturday: Go to vendors to pick up product for the first batch of deliveries.   Sunday: Prepare meals for the first delivery route.   Monday: First delivery route of the week (delivery schedule is designed to accommodate customers work schedule. There will be morning, afternoon, and evening deliver...

Week 13B: Developing Online Advertising

My first ad for this assignment was intended to drive sales. I chose to use humor to appeal to the tired working parent who is getting home from work and starting to think about dinner for the next week. I didn't specifically say what our service does, but focused on the experience the customer is currently going through. I hope that in using this technique I will draw viewers in because they will emotionally connect to what they're feeling.    "Got a case of the Mondays?  Let us Take Something Of Your Plate, And Something On Your Baby's..." My second ad was intended to bring brand awareness. I posted a picture of our Pea Protein Bites, a healthy and yummy finger food for babies starting to chew. I chose to post this picture without saying what the item is. They're bright and colorful and look like nothing you can buy in a store. I feel like this is an ad that will spark curiosity in viewers, drawing them to our site to learn more about these mysterious green ...

Week 17: Wrapping It Up

      This course has completely changed my perspective of social media marketing. Previously, I assumed this was a simple art form that anyone could accomplish by posting a pretty picture. This course has made me understand the nuances that separate a successful campaign and one that falls at the waist-side. Specifically, the use of hashtags was something I never knew the power of. Before this class I thought that hashtags were corny. Now I see that proper use of this tool will make or break a businesses outreach. Another thing I learned is how important it is to post the right content. In this course I studied accounts with tens of thousands of followers but very little engagement because they didn't post content that was interesting to their following.     I absolutely have a better understanding of how to use social media to build my business. The best part of this course is that it forces you to look at existing companies and valuate their success...
