Editor's Notes

  • #7 our YouTube channel is called KLEAN TV. And before we start talking about the purpose of the video, we’re going to show you the final production of our KLEAN commercial. The purpose of the video was to promote the KLEAN conference, promote the benefits we offer, such as Networking with other people, and creating brand recognition by having the CiiC logo placed on every picture. Currently, we have 2 videos up, and we’d like to thank Daniel Chance for getting the 2nd video production on the channel, that way it stays active. Here’s just a picture of what the KLEAN TV channel looks like. And moving onto our 2nd form of social media, Morgan will begin with Facebook.
  • #8 Dr. Hedlund requested that the posts for facebook be directed towards the processes of each class period. After getting together with the bcomm social media group, it was decided that I would post MWF following promo class, And Blake would post during Tues and Thurs following the B comm class . I directed my posts towards what we did in class that day, with some being group oriented and some being ind. , and some being towards dr. hedlund teaching. The reason for these posts were to show our potential clients the hard work that was put in to making this conference a success. Also we utilized a ‘Like’ page called Kansas Leadership of Education by Advancing Networks. And within that page, we shared our press release as well as our #vendingnow sign up flyer. We have also linked our Twitter account to our Facebook.
  • #9 We used Twitter more as getting information out as itself rather than about what the class was doing. Our tweets were informational and encouraging For example– “Just a reminder the Continuous Improvement and Innovation conference is at 7:30 am Wednesday May 21st! Looking forward to seeing everyone there!” is both informational and encouraging. The Advertising Team constructed all of our tweets, we just posted them. We also got tweets from Scott Gardner and Bryon Johnson. To ensure that our Twitter account was effective, we posted daily. One in the morning and one at night. As we got closer to the conference, I started posting tweets more frequently throughout the day.
  • #10 K-lean.net is in its infancy stage right now. There are graphics, links, and the KLEAN video posted right now, but the Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube icons are currently unavailable to view. It is on the list of improvement for upcoming years.
  • #11 How did we get friends, followers, and ‘Likes’ on Facebook and Twitter? WE sent out friend requests to everyone in our class and asked each person to accept out friend request. We also asked them to go and ‘LIKE’ our Kansas Leadership of Education by Advancing Networks. We also asked for each person to share our page and get each person to have up to 5 more people to share/retweet and become friends with other people that are not in the Kdub community. WE currently have 13 Likes, 70 friends on Facebook so far, and 14 Followers on Twitter As we went out and presented our KLEAN pitch to local businesses around Salina, we gave them the brochure and asked them to visit and share our Facebook and Twitter accounts to build stronger business relationships. We sent out requests to businesses and liked their pages, but we currently have no business friends, followers, and likes.
  • #12 We integrated with the advertising team as they produced tweets for us to publish online. As for the personal sales team, they led us with examples of how to properly sale, and gave us a list of qualified clients. With the Public Relations teams, we distributed the press release through Facebook and Twitter. Also with Visual Merchandising, we distributed the #VendingNow flyer onto facebook and Twitter. As for the B.Comm Social Media team, we had met to discuss our video processes and ideas, as well as decision-making about who would be posting what and when onto social media sites. In conclusion, we felt that everyone had a part in what we were trying to accomplish with our social media sites.
  • #13 This is what our team will recommend for next year… -We think that the criteria of the Social Media task should be understood and given to students before they sign up for groups so they will know what they’re getting into. -You should also choose individuals who are skilled and experienced in media production, because ours is not the best it can be with our lack of video production. - Another recommendation is to have more research done about how to get business followers, friends, likes, retweets, and YouTube subscribers in the future.
