Social Media Post

My entrepreneurial idea is a scouting database that makes the everyday person an "expert." People can log-in and give their analysis on any player in college basketball or the NBA. The website will allow all people to be involved in the game of basketball, while engaging with others of the same interest and opinions.

Social Media Post:

Social Media directly affects a company's longevity. If a company can take advantage of a all social media has to offer, it can blossom quickly. For my scouting database, I'd like to make it easily compatible with Twitter, Instagram and Facebook. Some other recent social media can be used, like Get Glue and Pinterest, but the main mediums would be the first three I mentioned.

For Twitter, links to the most read comments and highly analyzed players will be sent out to the masses. At the same time, it's most important to be etched into the fabric of the basketball blogosphere on Twitter. Engaging with writers and fans will allow the database to get more attention and fanfare. Any interesting changes in the players' flow charts will also be shared on Twitter as well as Facebook.

For Instagram, I think it'd be interesting to share pictures of players so that all posters can get an idea of what a player looks like. For players who are under-the-radar, the Instagram pictures can help get their name out and bring awareness to their name and their game. I think it's also key for the best posters to upload Instagram pictures of themselves to personalize the experience.
