Create an allegorical story inspired by a news article

Social Media allows us to connect with people and to share our lives with friends, family, co-workers, and others. We are able to share photos and information and keep in touch with others across great distances. While there are many benefits, we do want to protect ourselves when posting on social media. Since this is public domain, the information posted on a social media website may be viewable to people outside of our friend’s list. To protect ourselves when using social media, we can create a few rules of engagement for posting. For this assignment, you will respond to one of two prompts about social media.

Identify and describe five rules or guidelines everyone should consider when posting to a social media website. Do you follow any of these guidelines? Why or why not?

Your marketing objectives should, at a minimum, address potential customer profile and market segmentation. Explain the manner in which you conducted your secondary market research. 4. Outline the marketing goals in terms of the target market you selected, and describe the manner in which you would use marketing mix to reach that target market. 5. Describe the key method(s) that the company will use to implement the marketing mix that you have developed. The methodology should, at a minimum, focus on the details of the different elements of the market mix and how your company will focus them on the target market
