As I officially wrap up my first year of Advertising Marketing Communications at St. Lawrence College, I’m starting to reflect on all the personal growth I endured throughout the year. Part of my personal growth was maintaining my blog while I was attending school.
As much as I like to say I did a great job of posting regular content… I did not lol. I did manage to write some opinion blog posts that really refreshed my blog of just strictly fashion.
I enjoy voicing my opinion on current marketing topics and sharing with you all hopefully pieces of wisdom or something of interest you can think about.
One key lesson I learned during my time blogging for class is that in marketing you can’t target everyone and that’s okay. As much as some people enjoy the creative fun and fashion sense theme of my blog, some find it confusing or don’t really see the point.
For people who felt that way; as it would be costly to market to everyone, it would be very time-consuming for me to try and please everyone’s opinions as to what a great blog should sound like.
Something I’ve learned about myself as a writer is that I’m always geared to elevate my writing. Whether it’s my instructors trying to get me to improve my grammar or proofreading I’m always taking the initiative to bring my writing to the next level.
Something crazy I’ve experienced while blogging is that my voice gets brought on a higher level, and globally my ideas and posts can be viewed by anyone.
I’ve never been the person to put my opinion on display with the fear of rejection or conflict but being able to voice my opinion in the context of the blog gives me a sense of comfort and confidence that makes me want to invite others opinions to form a discussion.
As I continue to blog, I hope to connect with more of my audience and share my ideas while I continue this journey of fashion, body positivity and marketing. Tomorrow (April 27th) I am shooting a late spring lookbook showcasing some spring outfits ideas for next week.
so more content is to come this summer and I hope you enjoy!
I would love to hear my readers opinions on anything you’d like to see me write a post on, I love suggestions!
