Travel Bucket List

-
I have a passion for traveling and adventures. I try to do both of them when I can. I have compiled a list of places I want to travel to before I am 50:


1. Switzerland
I don't have a specific place in Switzerland that I want to go. My great-grandfather came from Switzerland as a young child. I would like to see what it looks like where he was born and raised.

2. Nebraska
This one seems random, but it's one of the most important places I want to travel. My grandmother was adopted from Nebraska. She passed away before I was born and I am named after her. We know very little about her biological family other than she had lots of siblings. She was adopted a year before Nebraska adoption records were made public and her adoption papers were burnt in a fire. I would love to know more about her and her biological family.

3. Venice, Italy
I would love to go to Venice. The photos are beautiful and I'd like to explore its history.

4. South Africa
I would love to experience any part of this country.

5. Bora Bora
I have already been to Fiji. Fiji is similar to Bora Bora, but i would love to stay in a hut over the ocean.

6. Portland, Oregon
I just want to be able to say I've been here.

7. Seattle, Washington
I would love to see the innovation of this city.

8. Chicago, Illinois
I feel like most people have been here before. I want to see it for myself and be cliche with a picture at the Bean.

    This travel bucket list is awesome, I love all the places you picked and I also want to visit these at some point in my life. Hopefully we both get the chance at some point to visit these!

    I do not have a travel bucket list. Unfortunately, I am not very adventurous. Travel makes me very stressed, especially if it involves flying. I do like going to the beach and on vacations but I don't think I would ever go outside of the United States. I would have to do a lot of research beforehand.

Different Audiences in Business

In Chapter 8, we discussed audience segmentation. This topic got me thinking about my job. At the boutique, the clothing and items we have tends to target middle aged women. Because of this, we tend to use social media in such a way that middle aged women are targeted with the posts depending on the platform. For example, the majority of our posts are on Facebook. This is where most of the customers that come into the boutique see our sales before shopping. A majority of our customers are already clients of the salon and many mention how they are always on Facebook. We decided that using Facebook to advertise could potentially increase sales for the boutique. Observing what goes on in the shop and salon has helped me target the audience and segment how our social media is used. Another example of market segmentation is what we post on Instagram. When I started my job, I was given the responsibility to revamp the Instagram for both the salon and the boutique. When given this resp

Strategy is Everywhere

Something that I have found fascinating in chapter 6 is the fact that strategic planning is everywhere and can take many forms. In the business college, we have several courses based solely on strategic planning. In business, strategic planning is generally used with how to gain more market share, profits, or revenues. In social media, strategic planning can be used to grow brand awareness. Brand awareness can either be for a personal brand or a professional/business brand. Being able to strategically plan your posts, content, and information that you are loading onto the Internet and greatly drive who your audience is and how they will react. There are many ways that this relates directly to the business world. For example, say that a small, start up company wants to grow their presence online in hopes of getting more customers. This company would have to create a plan on how to get from point A to point B in the most efficient and effective way. For this company, they would ha

Going "Live" for the First Time

As I have mentioned several times before, I am in charge of all social media for the business/businesses that I work for. Recently, my boss has brought up that she would like to sell items online to expand her store and increase sales. I have been working endlessly on designing a website and taking and editing photos for the items that are being sold to get her goal accomplished. It has been long hours of work but, I am finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.  Last weekend, she wanted to do a live video on Facebook to promote new arrivals and to allow people to order them through the video. Luckily, I had the help from her daughter for the video. However, I was a lot more nervous than I thought I would be for the video. I have never gone live on any social media platform on both my personal pages and the business pages. There was hours of preparation put into this live video (which only lasted 12 minutes). The steps and thing we had to accomplish before going live
