Week #10B - Blogging for Business

Categories can be used to great success on blogs, and are a great way to organize and keep your posts neat and orderly, so that they can be found easily by those visiting. I'd strongly consider using categories on posts for ExposVRe based on the type of media, the project in particular, and what each post is for. Separating out blog posts via the project - each phobia, for example - would be a great way for people to sort through many posts for the ones relevant to their particular need. This could even be extended to release notes and patch notes, demarcated by the categories for release and update. These sorts of things are great navigational tools to help keep everything in order for a viewer. They can also help a business grow because people can search for what they need, and providing ease of access is a great way to get positive customer interaction on your blog, and then your entire business.

Week #11A - Email Marketing

1. I think a monthly newsletter would be best - things like updates on how each project is going, what's coming down the pipe, and information about upcoming deals and sales. I don't believe enough progress would be made week to week to fill a weekly newsletter, and quarterly would be too infrequent for my tastes. I like it best myself when a developer is open with what's going on, and a monthly or bi-monthly newsletter could keep people in the loop without overwhelming them, or taking too long between. 2. I think ExposVRe could absolutely make good use of a newsletter. Release updates, project summaries, deals, sales, all that kind of stuff would be great content for a regular newsletter release. Release updates let people know what's coming out, when it's coming out, and what to expect in each update. This gives people a clear view of what they can use the software for. Project summaries let people know what's going on and what's the scope of each pr

Week #5B - Picking a Business

Business Name: ExposVRe Is it real?: It is not The business I'm going to be using for this course is one that I used for another course a few semesters back - a VR design company that makes programs for treating intense phobias in patients, especially ones that have difficulty getting exposure treatment in real life. The target market for this business is, by and large, places that can use the software and technology in their treatment plans for their patients - psychologists, hospitals, maybe even small groups that meet weekly/monthly to help work through the issues. By providing a solid product to a place like that, they can use it on a daily basis in a lot of different treatments for different patients, and licensing and production becomes the main source of income. A secondary market is individuals who want to use the product on their home devices. While not the direct place I'd be looking to make an impact, this market can be reached fairly easily, by simply providi

Week #2A - Overview of Social Media

There are many, many social media platforms that everyone can use on a daily basis. Of all of these options, there's a few things to keep in mind when deciding which ones you want to use - most importantly, what's the best use of each site? Do you want to use it for yourself, or for a business? Picking the right platform for the right job is crucial to social media success. For those looking for a more personal touch, I would recommend sites like Instagram or Snapchat - Pinterest as well can fall into this category. While businesses can absolutely make use of these sites to take photos and share interesting tidbits, these image sharing social media outlets are more easily used by individuals, to share things that they like and see on a daily basis to their friends and family, or anyone else following them. Often used for sharing food pics or vacation snapshots, image sharing sites like Instagram are great for the individual user. Over time, they can form a photo album of your
