Slide 1
This presentation will cover some of the key concepts discussed in Unit V. Let's get started.
Slide 2
Effective marketing communication in both public relations and advertising depends on developing a compelling message and delivering it to the right audience. Traditional media sources, like television, radio, and print, still exist and are viable options but are limited in scope when compared to online media. The Internet offers an almost borderless way to transmit communication to the world's population.
Slide 3
Social media platforms are simply websites that allow people to communicate informally with others through written messages, photographs, audio clips, or video. Each social media platform offers unique opportunities and challenges. This presentation covers information on three of the largest global social media platforms-Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube.
There are many different social media platforms, and new ones appear frequently. In order to take advantage of social media, organizations need to be aware of new trends. It is helpful to learn about what each site has to offer and how it connects with other social media services.
