This week’s presenter Chanele has to be my favourite so far. She had many insightful points when it came to social media and what she has done to now become a successful executive at TELUS communications. As for something she said in the interview, I think her point about ensuring that content creators are well rounded on different platforms is important.
She stated an example where someone who may have gone viral on tik Tok and decided tik Tok is the only platform they want to continue. However, in the past year there have been rumours about Tik Tok potentially no longer being available. This can really jeopardize the audience and popularity they have. With, still utilizing other platforms like Instagram and Facebook and twitter is a safe thing to do in this age of technology. You never know what may happen next with the internet and having many platforms to fall back on is one of the best decisions you can make.
By using different platforms, you may also gain and attract a whole new audience of people, growing your persona on the internet and the success you bring.
Overall, Chantele had many interesting points and in my mind was the most useful and compelling guest speaker for this class yet. I am definitely interested in checking out her own content, as she mentioned blogs she had in the past.
Also, her story about all her different roles she was into before she now landed her position that was able to combine all of her interests is very compelling!
