Final Thoughts

This week feels a bit somber as we have been asked to give our final thoughts regarding our marketing campaign, are we nervous, excited, relieved, etc?

I’m definitely excited to see how my marketing campaign goes over as I really do find a lot of fun in creating such campaigns. I haven’t yet completed the creative executions that we are tasked to add to our final product submission this week but in the past actually creating facsimile ads/marketing has been one of my favorite things to do. After submitting some created social media posts for a class I was previously in I actually had a teacher tell me that I “wasn’t allowed to just pull posts of the internet,” and I “needed to create my own posts.” I felt kind of proud telling her that I had actually created all of the posts that I included and she apologized stating that they looked so real she couldn’t tell the difference. A little tip for those who choose to read my post this week, there are many different online sites you can use to create “fake” social media posts for different platforms. Don’t be afraid to play around and make sure to look at the brands real social media accounts so you can make them look as real as possible, down to the username and profile image.

Other than that there definitely comes a bit of sadness that the class is almost over and that I am almost completely finished with my campaign. I’ve worked really hard to come up with this campaign and it’s a bit of a shame that it won’t be something I continue with. Who knows though, maybe someday I’ll end up working with a company like Urban Decay cosmetics on their social media. Wouldn’t that be a trip?!

I want to take a second to say good luck to everyone on their final projects. Thank you for all the responses to my posts and blogs, and its been great seeing all of your hard work! Great job everyone!
