Chronicles of Carson

Howdy readers!  Throughout this semester I have been completing a social media marketing simulation called Mimic Social. Each week we were tasked with setting up a social media marketing plan for a bag manufacturing company called Buhi. We we're given a budget and had to plan out the week of social media posts on all different platforms like Twitter, Instagram and LinkedIn. Each week we were also presented with a scenario in the simulation that we had to deal with to produce the greatest return possible. We had to choose between different types of posts and review the metrics from previous weeks the find the strategy that produced the highest amount of views, engagements and conversions.       Throughout the first seven weeks, I had to select all of the individual posts and create comments as well as choose whether or not to promote a post. These weeks took much longer to complete and a lot more thought towards my strategy because I personally had to create and customize each post.

 Howdy readers!     As noted in the title, this will be the final installment of the "Carson's Week in Review" series, at least for now, as I will be graduating college in just over a week! This series has been a blast to write and I am glad I have been able to share my experiences with those of you who have hung around and kept up with the series. This last week has been a rollercoaster of emotion as we played our final regular season lacrosse game and our conference playoff games. I also have had two final exams and am just one step away from graduation now!     So let's talk about lacrosse! Wednesday of last week I played in my final regular season lacrosse game of my career, playing at Baldwin Wallace in Cleveland. The game started as good as we could have hoped for with a two goal lead after the first quarter and a one goal lead at halftime! Unfortunately, our offense slowed down in the second half and we lost the lead in the third and were never able to recover
