Department Meeting
Anthony and I met Wednesday afternoon to meet with the chair of the CFCC Humanities and Arts Center. Before the meeting, Anthony and talked about his budget and he feels comfortable with it and we also talked about how at the festival we could show small segments of the films to help with voting for the audience choice award.
Jack and I met on Wednesday as well and talked about how our social media pages are doing. We also talked again about how we marketed the party last time and what worked. We found that it was mainly the word of mouth and Facebook that helped spread awareness. We talked about photoshop and illustrator and how we might use Jack's new skills to design more things to make the Facebook page nicer. We also talked about how he will need to do research about Facebook boosts and how others use them and recommended budgets to boost posts.
Reflection
I've been doing a lot of research about marketing budgets and I SO wish I had done this sooner! There are so many helpful words and dialogue to use for the advertising world. So many things that I didn't know about how businesses converse about marketing. There are different types of marketing that fall under different categories, and although I knew the different types I didn't know they fell under different categories. This research was truly enlightening.
