Employing the use of Social media, and Excel



     Whenever a new semester starts students are in dire need of textbooks, but very cheap textbooks don’t come by easily, and my entrepreneurial idea is bathed from this NEED! I want to come up with a website which will offer students the opportunity to buy or sell their textbooks.

      The use of social media will be integral to the starting up and the survival of the website. Most students will post

information about the website on their walls so as to attract clientele, and in the long run this will be a really good way to market themselves and the books they are selling. The website will also have its own page which will play a huge role in facilitating the communication process. Twitter will also play a huge role in facilitating the relationship between the customers, as I would want to have someone in charge of social media, who will filter through the different tweets and find what’s relevant to the company hence helping us to serve the end consumer better.

It is interesting how fast information travels on the Internet, and it is vitally important for any company which is keen on being around for the next many years to make sure they have a good team dedicated to managing the company’s reputation online.

      The website will need to employ the use of pivot tables in Excel to manage

the different transactions. These will provide an easier way to present information. Another benefit of employing the use of Excel is that whenever specific information is needed,


it will be very easy to present it, as someone can easily change the data being displayed.

  1. integrating functionality that allows users of your site to easily advertise through social media is a great way to increase traffic to your site. This is a really easy way to get a lot of free advertising.
