Visual Content and Networking

Once Dasha and I successfully finished our first project, it was time to begin a new assignment. One thing we can do for ShapeLog is create new visual content for the company to use in blog posts, newsletters, and social media posts. ShapeLog is running a pilot launch of their product at a gym in Ypsilanti, Anytime Fitness. Dasha and I plan to attend a ShapeLog fitness class there next week, where we will be taking photos, live Tweeting, and posting content on ShapeLog's Instagram story. It should be a lot of fun! Also, later next week, we are meeting with someone from another fitness company in Ann Arbor to learn more about the industry. I am very excited for what next week has in store for us.

Week 9: Wrapping Things Up

Next week marks the final week of this Digital Marketing Internship. I can't believe it's already coming to an end! Here are a few of the highlights I'll take away from this experience: Working for a startup allows you to wear many different hats and complete all kinds of various tasks.  Reading vocabulary words in textbooks only gets you so far. Being in an office and using digital marketing terms in the real world is incredibly helpful! Being part of the clinic was great - each week, we all shared our successes with each other and cheered our peers on. I think this made my internship more impactful than if I had experienced it on my own. Working in downtown Ann Arbor is wonderful (despite having to pay for parking)!

Hootsuite and Campaign Monitor Reviews

During this internship, I have gotten the chance to work with two social media management websites for the first time: Hootsuite and Campaign Monitor. Today's blog is about my experiences with these two platforms. Hootsuite Hootsuite it very easy to use! As a first time user, I had no problems navigating the interface and figuring out how to use it. Being able to schedule social media posts in advance is such a time-saver. In about 2 hours, I was able to schedule content for the next 4 weeks. For Twitter, the link-shortening feature was incredibly helpful to save characters. Campaign Monitor (CM) Like Hootsuite, CM is easy to use and figure out. I experienced no problems as a first time user. CM provides many pre-made email templates, which is incredibly helpful. It also saves lots of time! The analytics available on CM are wonderful! I was able to quickly compare the various emails ShapeLog has sent to subscribers and get valuable feedback about which ones were most

How to Pass the Google Analytics Certification Exam

Last week, I finally passed the Google Analytics Certification Exam! It took me 4 tries, but I ended up passing with a score of 97 percent. Here are the steps I took that led me to success: To begin, I took the test once with minimal studying. This was to get a feel for the format of the test and the difficulty of the questions. I scored 55 percent, and an 80 percent or higher is needed to pass. Throughout the next 7 days, I completed about half of the training modules that Google provides in Google Analytics for Beginners.  I took the test a second time, scoring a 67 percent. Over the next week, I completed all training modules in Google Analytics for Beginners, as well as the assessments at the end of each training session. I took the test a third time, scoring a 75 percent (at this point I was getting frustrated - I was only 5 points away from passing!). I completed Advanced Google Analytics training modules, retook the assessments, and took detailed notes. Finally, on my f
