Hey, LDI 2015: Your IMC has a short!

This week’s assignment for MMC-5006 was to follow (for educational purposes) the goings-on at LDI 2015, the annual convention for lighting/audio/live event design professionals held in Las Vegas, NV from Oct.19th-26th. I was tasked with evaluating the event’s overall integrated marketing communication plan. My impression of the tradeshow’s IMC plan and execution of it is something of a mixed bag.

Industry-Specific Social Media (or Government is REALLY Worried About Your Data)

This week’s assignment is to identify and analyze an example of “Industry-Specific Social Media.” So, I thought, if we’re talking industry, I might as well go big. The biggest, in fact. No, not cat videos – although I admittedly considered that at length. I’m talking about Government. The works – Federal/State/Municipal. The largest employer in the universe. And, yes, they do have their own industry-specific … Continue reading Industry-Specific Social Media (or Government is REALLY Worried About Your Data)

Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Skype

For our MMC-5006 mid-term project, I am analyzing the social channel Skype… Social Network or Content Community? Skype is a service that enables social sharing for both personal and business purposes. People use it to connect directly with friends/family and business associates, i.e. –  those with whom they already have some type of connection. By that definition alone, it would be considered a Social Network … Continue reading Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Skype

About Me – Part II (or Show Me the Money!)

Dearly Beloved: I am tasked with another, a bit more focused, “About Me” post this week… So I need to introduce myself to you all again – although, I believe, a more accurate operative term this time might be the somewhat-more-pointed sell myself… Early Disclosure: I was “well rounded” in high school. I prefer the term “well-rounded” because I think that sounds better than “scattered” … Continue reading About Me – Part II (or Show Me the Money!)

Blog Analysis (or Three Okie Shout-outs!)

For this week’s assignment, I’ll be analyzing three blogs – all different in nature and content and enjoying varying levels of success based on our definition learned in lecture. First up… TheLostOgle.com TheLostOgle is a very Oklahoma/Oklahoma City-centric blog which has carved out a unique niche for itself. From its pre-2007 zygote of odd-lot, too-detailed basketball ramblings and occasional references to local OKC news personalities … Continue reading Blog Analysis (or Three Okie Shout-outs!)

The Target Website: Put on some makeup, girl!

Focusing again on Target’s integrated marketing practices, but this week looking more critically at the company website… As noted previously, Target does an outstanding job of engaging their customers via social media and utilizing the pull marketing techniques germane to that platform. The place they are attempting to pull Twitter and Facebook followers with their fun and personable posts is the website (or, of course, … Continue reading The Target Website: Put on some makeup, girl!
