Who Cares?

Who’s listening?

MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, Second Life, YouTube, etc. These websites have sky rocketed to the top of the most visited website list in a very short period of time. 

Continuing to increase in popularity one of its advantage of social networks is to target an audience to promote, share and distribute information.

Clicking through some social media wed sites I realize my audience is everywhere. From young, high school graduates to successful professionals. Everybody wants to be heard, and feel appreciated.

But social networks are not for everybody, and must be handled with care. In the mist of sharing your personal life, you are also exposing your professional life too.

Social media enables you to have friends that are not dictated by geography or circumstances. And to me, the ability to find people with whom you have a affinity, regardless of where they live is an extraordinary opportunity.

Connect, share, and transmit happiness, commitment, courage, and affirmative values. Transmit the message that in life any hard work is important, and incredibly worth it. 

Here are some of my search words that helped me define where my target audience is hanging out:

Caring students

Students under stress/under pressure

Senior college students

Full-time employee students

Caring teachers/professors/professionals

Students helping students

Students/teachers making the difference

People that care

Blogs:

People That Care

All of these blogs are connected with Twitter, Facebook, and Linkedin. You have to go where they go and engage where they hang out. 

My target audience is essential to me, because I want to make a difference. I need to get involve by joining their blogs, twittering, and posting message showing my support, and most important that I CARE.
