Hi I am Amy Blume, I go by Beth in most other facets of my life, I am currently getting through my degree one course at a time.  You see I am a 42 year old full time career, mom of 6 kids (blended family), 3 dogs, 1 cat and have added school onto that list.  I have no year of graduation at this point because I am going slow, but you know what they say slow and steady wins the race.  I am currently working on my second associates degree as none of my credits from my first (tech school) transferred, I am hoping some day to graduate with a Bachelor’s in Marketing, even if I am 60 when I finally do it.  I currently work in marketing or at least that is what my company calls it.  Our corporate marketing department does more of the creative work and those things, I actually do more of the local ad set up with the creatives from corporate, I plan events, I work with sales agents and get them the flyers and items that they need etc.  I am taking this course because my corporation just allowed the agents to start using Facebook business pages and I am hoping to learn things to take back to them.

Three things I hope to learn–

How to better market through social media.

The power of social media when you own a company.

Various types of social media marketing.
