1.Introduction to the Module and Module Objective

Social media is a recently emerged and ever evolving channel of marketing

communication which has found relevance in both personal connectivity and business

promotion . Although students are expected to be conversant with using the social media

in personal space,the objective of the course is to sensitize them towards the role of this

medium in business. The course will broadly be based on the following lines:

1.  Introduction to Social Media marketing and its relevance in business today.The

course will also share the trends that have been noticed so far.

2.  Understanding various forms of social media and how they can be used for

promoting business.

3.  Understanding the profile of the target audience for focused targeting of the

conversations pertaining to product/brand.

4.  Measuring and monitoring the social media activities to gauge their efficacy.

5.  Relevance of introducing Social media policy in organizations and theaccountability of employees for making it a success.

6.  Engaging customers and utilizing customer inputs for product innovation.

7.  Understanding the connect between search engine optimization (SEO) and social

media marketing.

The course will be extensively led through real life case studies and examples with the

intent of understanding the current pattern in which social media works .What makes this

course unique is its recent advent, and therefore a lack of any formal research, theories

and practices developed in the field so far.Therefore students will be encouraged to think

proactively through the case studies and examples to form a basic understanding of the

current practices and to develop the ability to think of ways in which Social media can be

used for effective marketing along with the traditional marketing channels.
