Using Social Media and Networking
1. Develop a product service idea.
My product is a mobile application to set up a carpool for employees working in an office. A lot of employees working in an office do not know that some of their employees live within a 2-mile radius of their home. The application takes employee data i.e. their addresses and office timings as an input and generates possible carpooling groups. An individual can log in and check the possible carpooling groups and get into the group.
A. Describe the product/service including the benefits of using the product/service
According to a survey, out of the carpooling group, 40% of them do carpool with their apartment/flatmates. The advantage of the same is that source is same and the individual destinations might be same or nearby others. With this application, we can have sources nearby and the destination is the same.
B. Discuss the potential customers for this product/service
Potential customers are the companies and their employees which can share the probable carpooling groups for the employees who can benefit from the same.
2. Based on the nature of the product/service, recommend at least 3 possible social media to use in marketing the product/service. Describe your recommendations and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each.
I will recommend LinkedIn, Facebook, Youtube for marketing my product on social media.
Facebook - Based on the Facebook users, one can say that easier way to reach out to a wide audience is through facebook. Share feature or newsfeed will help us more with the marketing.
Advantages are being able to reach out to a wider audience and facebook groups help us to communicate our carpool groups easier and form locality groups.
The disadvantage with facebook is that it costs us more for ad campaigns when compared with other social media.
LinkedIn - Linkedin is said to be the social media for professionals. Our product being related to companies having more than 100 employees and directly relates to professionals, LinkedIn helps to market the idea to the right audience.
The advantage is that to be able to reach out to correct set of audience and make them understand the importance of the same. The disadvantage is that we will not be able to communicate in groups
YouTube - Our product can be well presented with videos and be able to explain the scenario and how it helps to conserve the environment. With correct content, we can reach out to the right set of audience.
The advantage is to be able to present the content with videos and show the impact. The disadvantage of YouTube is that it is expensive to run an ad campaign and also might get far behind with the entertainment content.
