Those communities can be fans of your creative work, building a network of supporters to promote new ideas, or finding new consumers. This unit explores how to craft messages for and how to reach consumers through social media platforms. Includes how different social media platforms can be used to best engage with their audiences and how to build audiences through organic and paid promotion. Students will learn best practices on how to effectively plan and implement social media campaigns across different platforms, how to monitor and engage with social communities, and how to create messages that best capture audience attention.
