My orgnization

The organization I chose to follow for this class is Gibbs Sweet Station. I have worked for this shop for 3 years. I felt this would be a good choice for me because I work there and also because I am an entrepreneurship major and it's a small business. The woman who owns and operates the business has done it all on her own for 30 years. Being apart of the business, I know that social media isn't really used at all. There is no official website, Facebook page, or twitter, at least not ran buy anyone working their. There is a Facebook page but it was made by a customer and she rarely updates it. One major problem is that the owner does not own a computer or cell phone, she has no way of using social media to help promote her business. occasionally one of the employees will post something on Facebook or twitter, but its on our own personal accounts. I think having a an official Facebook page, twitter, and website could really help promote the business, especially when we hold events there.

  1. It is rare to see a business, even a small business, today without a social media presence. Maybe over the course of this class or after this class is over you will be able to help develop a few different social media options for your employer.
