I started the week thinking that I would be optimizing on my client’s Facebook and Instagram accounts, and creating a Twitter, LinkedIn, and YouTube page. Well once I started trying to set up the different accounts, I realized that my client already a LinkedIn and YouTube account that she had forgotten she had. Neither of them had much done on them so I was able to update the pictures, update the Bio information, and tie the usernames together so they would help with my clients overall branding.
I made same of the profile pictures the same so that if potential clients are looking for Angela’s accounts, they would recognize her by her photo. Some of the changes that we wanted to make on the Facebook page weren’t working correctly, so we know we will be needing to continue to “tweek” some things in the days and weeks to come on her Facebook account.
You Tube was difficult for me because I really didn’t understand how everything works since I’ve never really worked with You Tube before. My client isn’t very well versed in it either, so we will be continuing to work on developing her You Tube page. I was able to change her profile picture, updated and added in personal info, and added a secondary email as her primary.
One of the things my client said she wanted to work on was to make her email address the same throughout her social media accounts. I was able to get some of them changed over, but we ran into some difficulties being able to connect with each other in getting them all switched over. We will be working on getting this completed within the next week so that it’s easier for her to keep up with all her accounts.
At times, this project was difficult for me because I’m not very knowledgeable when it comes to social media networks. I also found it difficult to not be in complete control of having the information I needed on hand to complete the tasks.I didn’t have the ability to get to confirmation emails or codes sent to her phone that I needed to move forward with the project. My client is a busy mom of three little ones and lives in Florida, so are schedules haven’t always lined up. I know it will get easier now that the accounts are set up and we can really start working on optimizing them.
The videos were able to keep my attention because they were full of information that was useful for me while I was getting the accounts set up. They also gave detailed reasoning on each network, how they differed from one another, and who and why you would want to use them. I plan to watch them again so that I can better understand the individual advantages and “know how’s” of each network, which will help me make the most of my clients pages moving forward!!
Sounds like you made some great steps with your client and her social media this week. Hopefully, you snapped a few before/after pictures of each platform. If not, remember to do that ASAP so you can show before/progress/after pictures in your final client project. 😉
