Week 6: List of Businesses Liked on Facebook

Hello lovely people! I hope you are all doing well so far. This week, I looked into businesses that I think I could make strategic connections with. Let's begin talking about them! 

1. Ashnichrist

    I chose to like Ashnichrist's business page because she is one of my biggest streaming mentors. I have had the opportunity to be a part of her Stream Coach Academy program and loved every moment of it. Since I already have that connection with her as her student, I believe that I could make strategic connections with her in making my business grow. I also believe that she creates valuable content that I could share with my audience/followers.

2. Brené Brown

    Brené Brown is a research professor at University of Houston where she studies courage, vulnerability, shame and empathy. During my years as a struggling actor, I learned a lot about vulnerability and shame through Youtube videos that my professor would show me. These videos were from Brené Brown's Ted Talks. My followers enjoy watching me be vulnerable when I am live streaming video games. I believe her content is extremely valuable for my audience/followers because vulnerability and shame are things people struggle with (myself included). I also believe this content will educate and encourage people to learn more about their emotions.

3. Littleoneyouare 

    Littleoneyouare is another Twitch streamer that I have spoken to and want to work with in the future. We were both students from the Stream Coach Academy during the same term, so it is great to already have that connection of us as peers. Her streams consists of her conquering her fears of horror games and spreading positivity. What I love most about her channel is her openness about her mental health journey and wanting to be an advocate for mental health. Because my channel strives to normalize mental health, it would be an excellent choice to work with her on collaborations, as well as share her content about mental health with my followers.

4. National Institute of Mental Health

     I chose to like the National Institute of Mental Health because they are the largest scientific organization dedicated to mental health research. Since my channel focuses on normalizing mental health, I thought it would be a great idea to follow this business page. The page displays videos, studies, and interesting graphics talking about mental health. I believe their content would be a great source of information to share with my followers, if they are interested in learning more about it or need resources. The National Institute of Mental Health also announces livestream events for people to tune into about certain topics. Overall, I believe all of their content is very valuable to share.

5. TED

    TED is a news and media website that host Ted Talks about various topics. I enjoy watching Ted Talks and find myself getting inspired by the speakers. By following this page, I believe that I could share some of their content on my business page for my followers to see. Because the Ted Talks discuss a variety of things, I could find the content that appeals to my target audience. I also believe it would be a great way to engage followers with discussions or relatable content for them to share with their friends.

6. Blue Microphones

    Blue Microphones is a company that is known for their award-winning microphones for audio professionals, musicians and consumers. I liked their business page because I wanted to get more updates about products they plan to launch. I also wanted to stay in the loop with what the company is up to. By liking their page, I view it as an attempt to get my foot in the door in the hopes to work with them as an affiliate or sponsor. I hope to use my Facebook page as a way to be seen by this company as I continue to grow my channel and Facebook business page.

7. Logitech

    Logitech is a company that focuses on products that connect people to the digital experiences they care most about. These products range from webcams, keyboards, computer mouses, etc. They are also one of the biggest brands that have sponsorship opportunities for streamers. Logitech has been known for being excellent with treatment of the people they sponsor. I liked their page because I could get news about the latest products they launch and as a way to stay in the loop with this company. I hope to get a sponsorship opportunity with them in the future. I hope to use my Facebook page as a way to get my foot in the door as I continue to grow my channel and business page.


I plan to use my business page as a way to stay informed with these businesses. I also plan to use my page as a collection of helpful resources for my followers to get a hold of. Connecting with people is so important to reach other audiences. By following other business pages, it puts yourself in front of new people that may or may not find your page interesting to them. With that being said, it is still excellent for your business page to gain more exposure ("reach"). Sharing business's posts also increases their follower engagement, which could also assist in your follower engagement when it is reposted onto your business page.

Week 10 Post 1: Email Marketing

      Email newsletters are an effective tool to share business news with your clients. I believe newsletters should be sent out at least once a month, although I fear that may not be enough. Once I start to fully understand what my community wants to see, I might increase my email activity to twice a month (depending on the amount of news needed to be shared). I've seen businesses send constant emails about their business and if it does not appeal to me, I typically delete them. If it gets to be too much, I would unsubscribe from their mailing list. I am hoping that my emails will not cause my viewers to unsubscribe from my newsletter.     For the type of emails that will be sent out, I would love to include stream news (what game I am currently playing, planned events, etc). I want to start doing charity streams each month. These email newsletters would be a great way to announce what charity we (as a community) have selected to donate to for the month. Further down the line, I w

Week 2 B: Business Research

Hello everyone! I am a Twitch streamer when I am not studying and working and would love to make content creation a full-time business further down the line. Below, I researched content creators that I highly look up to. I analyzed how they use social media, what seems to work for them, and their numbers for the social media accounts. Let's dive in! Ashnichrist https://streamcoachbook.com/ and https://www.twitch.tv/ashnichrist Ashley (Ashnichrist) is a partnered Twitch streamer and content creator that made her business by helping other streamers pursue their dreams in the industry.

Her books provide all the information she had learned from branding, marketing, being an influencer, etc. She is also a successful Youtuber that shares tips and tr

Week 1: Why I chose my theme

     I chose my theme because I really enjoy the color scheme of blues and purples. I figured this would work best because this is the color scheme that I use on my Twitch channel. I really liked how simple the layout looked! I also found a space image in the settings section that also drew me in. Space has always been an interest of mine but I find myself appreciating the aesthetic of images like this (my mouse pad has a very similar image as this one). I feel as though I will end up changing my theme throughout the course once I get a full understanding of how I want to market myself to people.    The first social media platform that I signed up for was Friendster.com. I was never active on that site because I had no clue how to navigate through it. It wasn't until my middle school years when my cousin signed me up for Myspace.com. Myspace made it very easy to navigate through. The one thing I did not like about it was the use of a bulletin board. Although this could have been us
