...exceeding the global population of 7.3 billion people. With such numbers in play, it is of supreme importance to reach out to this category of digitalized people. The time spent on digital media like smartphones, Tablets, Kindles, PlayStations, etc. has increased tremendously. According to our research, almost 56% of people are always connected through the different digital devices they use. With businesses looking for growth in stagnant economies their gaze turns to digital not just in their home markets, which are becoming more mature and saturated, but they see digital as the obvious route to international expansion and growth. Brand building and differentiation are the top reasons for digital marketing, followed by customer communication and assessment of customer satisfaction of a product, according to a survey of 250 firms with over $500-million in annual revenue by Gartner. Media consumption has evolved due to increased internet access, the narrowing of the age gap in usage across platforms, and the way geography influences media orientation. By understanding that these seismic shifts reflect an evolving balance of cross -platform media usage, marketers and advertisers can better craft their marketing mix and appeal to more diverse audiences.

...relationship with others and gain social acceptance, and the need for self-presentation as an impression management in which people attempt to influence the perception of their image. These two factors can work as a pair or singly for FB use. For example, the number of FB friends and a desirable presentation of self on FB positively associate with the degree of subjective well being and users’ self-esteem because of visualization of social networking (Kim & Lee, 2011). FB enables users to create own profiles including name, gender, date of birth, e-mail address, home town, personal interests, job information and photograph (Facebook, 2016). The interactions on FB are the friends list, the wall, pokes, status, events, photos, video, messages, chat, groups and like. The friends list is a significant part of FB, because it enables the endusers to create a public display of their accounts which viewers can click to expand the network. Like allows users to give positive feedback about preferred content (Facebook, 2016). People use these functions to build relationships, gain acceptance and present self so that they can satisfy the need to belong and the need for self-presentation. 2. Using examples, evaluate the success of Facebook fan pages Many companies utilize FB fan page as an integral part of their social media campaign that enable them to...

Furthermore, the essence of communication is sharing-providing data, information and insights in an exchange that benefits both us and the people with whom we are communicating. In addition good communication is “effective communication”, when the messages given by the sender is properly understood by the receiver and the receiver will then act in the way the sender expects them to do.“Good communication” in an organization will tell us to succeed in business today. Specially, we need the ability to communicate with people both inside and outside our organization. Whether we are competing to get the job we want or to win the customers our company needs, our success or failure depends to a large degree on our ability to communicate. Good communication improves employee attitudes and performances. For example, when executives succeed to make an effective communication to their employees, they can properly share their decisions, provide information or help their employees completely understand their tasks, subsequently do the right things and achieve the best results at the boss request. Employers want staffs do a work according to their requirement, employers have to make decisions and transfer this information to the staffs. If this process of transferring information is good, the staffs will understand what do employers require and meet the requirement of work. In addition...

...I. Dating Industry history The dating industry formed in the 1600s when the first services to help singles found spouses arose. At the time, being unmarried past the age of 21 was shameful causing some to turn towards matrimonial agencies to help them find a mate. The services utilized print ads typically on behalf of men who paid the agency to recruit them a wife. With the invention of the modern newspaper close to 1700 the print ad medium for finding a spouse began to gain popularity. Companies profited from posting a column in exchange for a fee. Continuing into the 1900s, print advertisements continued to be the dominant medium for the dating industry, but starting around the middle of the 20th century came the concept of computer assisted matchmaking. In the mid-1960s, Lewis Altfest and Robert Ross created Project TACT (Technical Automated Compatibility Testing). Participants paid $5 and answered roughly 100 multiple-choice questions about themselves. After submitting responses, cards printed out with names and phone numbers were provided. The concept of using formulas to match singles based on their like, dislikes and characteristics was born. The computer assisted matching concept however, would not catch on for several more decades. Other new concepts also arose in the dating industry. Shows such as The Dating Game brought the idea of matching strangers with similarities to the forefront of entertainment, with contestants asking questions of three potential matches...

...Introduction Business ethics are not as complicated or abstract as one might think. A simple way to evaluate whether or not a practice is ethical is to determine the ultimate effect of that practice. For example, if the manager of a store paid his cleaning employee less than the going rate to clean his store, knowing exactly what the going rate is, several things could happen to damage the business. The employee could suffer serious financial implications or the employee could leave and find another position where she does not feel exploited. The subject of ethics is often considered abstract or relative by those who believe that rules do not always apply to them. Rules and laws apply to everyone. It is unfortunate that some employees in the upper echelons of the corporate ladder decide to act unethically, but it is a fact of business and of life. For this reason, it is best for a business to be careful of who they promote within their company. Corporate responsibility is a phrase heavily used in the business world. Often mentioned to enhance the image of an organization, corporate responsibility does have a true meaning. Businesses that use energy efficient lighting and offer their employees a fair pay rate are practicing corporate responsibility. Corporate responsibility is an integral part of business ethics and should be practiced by all entities, whether large or small. Corporate responsibility simply means that each individual within a company is practicing personal...

...Should the Public Embrace Social Networking Sites | 7/26/2011 | This is a research paper that encompasses the question of why the public should embrace social networking. | Should the Public Embrace Social Networking Sites In the past few years, social networking has made an impact on the world that developers would have never imagined. JD Rucker believed that the idea to develop social networking sites stemmed from the first email in 1971. In 1994, Geocities was one of the first social networking sites to be founded. Developers created TheGlobe.com in 1995, giving users the freedom to personalize their online experiences using their own content. Eight years following this event lead to the launch of Friendster, which was considered a success at the time because within the first three months the user-base grew to three million users. He also reported that 2003 is the year when Myspace became established. Many social networking sites such as Tribe.net, Linkedin, Classmates.com, Jaiku, and Netlog pursed the same success as Myspace, but unfortunately they couldn’t. Later Facebook launched as an alternate way for college students at Harvard University to communicate and have expanded becoming the most successful social networking site to date. Social networking sites have been successful ones because they allow the users to personalize their pages. The success of each social networking site is determined by the number of users and unique visitors that accrues every month...
