Social Media : KISS it

Keep It Simple Stupid

KISS basically means Keep It Simple Stupid. Talking about your logo itself, it doesn't have to be anything to complicated. You want to capture basically what your company stands for in one picture and not have 10 different elements in it. Basically minimizing the number of colors, fonts, shapes, images, and lines you use in the logo (Williams 19).

This logo which is the main one used on the twitter account is very simplistic, having only 2 words and an overall design of a sword going through the back drop of the shield. Also this logo can be integrated into many different designs and colors. For example apparel and banners.

Planning ahead is one of the most important part of creating a killer logo (Williams 19). For instance planning has made this logo look really good on the apparel and the color look amazing.

Question: Is the logo that important for you guys, or is it something to just demonstrate you personally?

Social Media Marketing

Social Media Marketing

There are many social media platforms that many people use personally, or for some type of business marketing. But the main purpose of social media isn't to post your belief, but to actually gain valuable data for companies by companies to bring you the most valuable social media experience, It is just one big business! Many of these social media platforms include Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Linkedin, Pinterest and YouTube.

I personally enjoy the art of trying to market yourself which is what I will be blogging about. There are many ways people market off of social media, people market themselves (celebrities), people market businesses, people market organizations, and frequent/infrequent events. There are 3.175 billion global active internet users, which is almost half of the world's population! Social media accounts penetrate about 30% of these internet users, 2.206 billion people (Williams 10)

I will be blogging about the social media techniques that I use and learn from John Williams to grow my brand and organization to hopefully in the near future be able to call myself a successful social media marketer!

Twitter

I will be marketing off of twitter on the account @Haven_eSports and will try to grow from my point of 317 followers and 2.5k engagements daily.

I usually tweet infrequently and only tweet twice, maybe 3 times a day but after reading Willams section on Lifespan I learned I need to change this. only 92% of engagement happens only between the first hour of the tweet being made (Williams 37) an engagement is anybody ,clicking, liking, commenting, favoriting, or retweeting a post. So instead of tweeting less times a day tweeting more isn't only acceptable but preferred!

Through the next couple of weeks and months I will not only try to expand but do so successfully with a higher engagement percentage and follower count! Why not go and check out the twitter, and give it a follow!

QUESTION : What is your main purpose of social media? What are your hoping to do with the account in the near future if you are on it daily?
