In response to Kelsey's "Different Marketing Tools"

     You asked if I think that Facebook, websites and emails are the best and the cheapest way to market a product. I'll start with the cheapest. I do think that it is much cheaper because it really just costs your time. You don't have to pay to market your product on Facebook(maybe you do, I don't do Facebook). This would be a very smart tactic because you are able to save some money buy using electronics. Everyone is starting to use computers because it is easier and more efficient for them. Time is money. Emails on the other hand probably aren't a good idea. I honestly think that if people are going to market their product via email, they are just wasting their time. A lot of people look at their emails and if it doesn't have anything to do with what they want/need then they are going to just delete it.
     To refer back to using the computers to marketyour product, I think that it is a very good idea. More and more people are using computers and they are going to go on the internet to look up products and services. Websites are a very good idea. I have had debates with people about using Facebook for work related things. I honestly think that using Facebook for work is unproffessional. Facebook is for leisure activities for people to use after work. In the workplace, Facebook is becoming a problem because people are going on to check their page several times a day. For a place to discourage Facebook and then use it for communication and interviews is hypocritical and unproffessional. BUT marketing your product on Facebook would be a good idea because EVERYONE has a Facebook and people are addictied to it. This would be a good way to catch people's attention because they are on it all of the time
