We need to wrap up reading Michael Hyatt’s book Platform:
Read Chapters 8,9,10,11,12,13,14 and 15 before the next test. I will go through some of the high points today. I am also bringing a copy of my Social Media/Marketing plan for my book for you to see. We’ll discuss it and why I am doing the things I’m doing. That will give you a better idea as you are setting yours up. I want you to write yours up like mine and bring it to me by next Thursday’s class.
Tuesday is field trip day. We will start at the Clarion-Ledger. Being on time is imperative. YOU MUST BE THERE ON TIME. Dustin Barnes, the online/Social Media expert at the paper, has agreed to take time out of his busy schedule to meet with you. If you show up late, that is disrespectful to him. We’ll also meet with several of the editors and writers at the paper. And I’ll introduce you to some of the advertising staff as well. When we are done, we will head across the street to the Mississippi Museum of Art for the taping. It is either at 9 a.m. or at 10. If at 10, I will introduce you to the staff and you can see how a shoot is set up. But you can leave at regular time.
There is free parking at The Clarion-Ledger. There is a lot across from the Police station on Pascagoula Street. Head toward the Interstate from JSU and the lot is to the left next to the CL.
I REPEAT: YOU MUST BE ON TIME.
