Visual networks are extremely important for me and my
brand because it is a form of word of mouth. By having pictures taken of the
events I produced helps give my future client an idea of what I do for them. Snapchat,
twitter, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, google, Tumblr and Pinterest are the 8 top
most widely used visual platforms. Although all of these platforms reach
millions of viewers they all have specialty areas some are not so business friendly
such as; snapchat, with snapchat it is fun to use but you can only post
pictures and videos up for 10 seconds total and then it disappears forever, not
great for branding yourself. With twitter sometime your content can get lost if
you tweet too often.
I have an Instagram page for my business that I currently
use and it is definitely helpful for my brand and company. I started my account
last summer and I have 21 followers and I am currently following 48
people/businesses. I do not post enough; I take hundreds of pictures a month
pertaining to my business yet I never have the time to post them. But I have
noticed that Instagram now lets you use their program to take pictures with and
post at the same time. When I hashtag I always use the location, venue, vendors
I used, my company name and anything else related to weddings and events.
