Guest Speaker – Angela Mclean

  • Mclean promotes style guides and blogs, among other things that were touched on in class. It is always nice to see a clear-cut connection to course material.
  • The idea of understanding what your competitors are doing and how that affects your business was touched on, and I found this to be quite a useful piece of information.
  • Mclean suggests creating an online presence is a good thing as it leaves companies with the option to stalk you, which was obviously some comic relief within the otherwise serious discussion. However, it does raise a good point about leaving yourself open as a prospect for a company.
  • Responds to questions with concise answers

Readings

  • The Marketing and content funnel reading was not bad. Visuals are spares but helpful when applicable. Content is important to the following lecture and not overly wordy.

 

Release:

Lecture 

  • There is nothing too much to say. There is lots of information, though the slides where very wordy, which is not generally super visually appealing. 

Readings
