fishbat Urges Brand Consistency Across All Social Media Platforms

Following an article posted on Business 2 Community, fishbat, an award winning online marketing company, discusses four tips to keep your business’ brand image consistent across all social media platforms.

fishbat, an award-winning online marketing company, discusses four tips to keep help keep a business’ brand image consistent across all social media platforms.

Following a March 24th article posted on Business 2 Community titled “7 Tips For Brand Consistency Across Social Channels,” while different strategies need to be implemented for each social media platform (Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest etc.), consistency in brand image must remain the same.

Justin Maas, vice president of client relations at fishbat, an award winning online marketing company agrees. “What works for Facebook may not work for Twitter. However, there must to be some sort of brand consistency. Brand consistency is one of the most important aspects of marketing. The brand’s message must be unified and easily identifiable on each platform.”

Maas discusses some tips on how to keep brand image consistent:

1. Get an understanding of the brand’s fans. “Different demographics use different social media platforms,” he explains. “They may also use these networks differently. It’s important to research your target market, and decide on a strategy accordingly.”

2. Decide on the brand’s voice. “A great way to differentiate a brand from others is an original ‘voice.’ For instance, if your brand was a person, how would he or she talk? Add humor into brand language or keep it formal. It all depends on what the brand represents and what its target market is. Keep in mind that the voice will also dictate who will be attracted to the brand, so keeping the target market in mind at this stage is a must,” Maas explains.

3. Update regularly. “One huge mistake brands make is not updating regularly. For example, I have seen brands post every day one week, and then only once the next. That is not a good way to attract a following,” he says.

4. From offline to online. “If a brand is already successful offline, there is no need to change everything. In fact, that can be detrimental as the goal is to keep a consistent brand image. Use the same logos, color scheme, and voice in online marketing that is already being used offline,” Mass concludes.

fishbat is a full-service digital marketing firm and social media agency dedicated to connecting all types of businesses with their target audiences in the most effective and efficient way. Through innovative strategies in social media management, search engine optimization (SEO), branding, web design, reputation management and public relations, fishbat promotes a consistent and professional online voice for all of its clients.

25 Things About Me: General Knoxx from Borderlands in Pandora

Written by Podunker:The Liztress

Finding General Knoxx was hard to do, not because of his location but the fact that he claims to be in the future. Once we found the time he was in, it was all a matter of following the signs to his Secret Armory. General Knoxx was all too happy to speak to us as he told us he’s been having lots of free time lately since his last encounter with the Vault Hunters.

1. My name is General Alphonso Knoxx, son of Guillermo Delphino Knoxx III. This is all the introduction you will get from me.

2. I had to go find one of those old time tweetergram just so I could capitalize. So you know, in the future: No one capitalizes.

3. My major dislike is Mondays. I hate that day with a passion and if possible I would blast it off the week.

4. Only person I hate more than Mondays is my boss, Admiral Mikey. He’s literally a kid. Damn nepotism!

5. Speaking of him, I totally wasn’t the one who pushed him down 30,000 stairs and killed him.

6. Want to visit Pandora? I don’t know why. Place smells like hemorrhoids wrapped in bacon. Classified information on how I know what that smells like.

7. For those who follow my tweetergram thing, you should know that the tweets time travel.

8. If you don’t, you should follow my tweetergramming machine. It’s http://twitter.com/generalknoxx.

9. Have you met Moxxi yet? That woman tries too hard to look younger than she really is.

10.

My armor is custom made. It’s a specialized Devastator mech with dual Particle Projector Cannons mounted into the arms. Only the best get to wear this bad boy.

11. The state of the art Eridian technology that the Cannons are made from allow them to be able to lock and home in on targets. None of the other Devastators have this.

12. When I’m not guarding the Secret Armory or bashing my men, I like to sight see the many things in Pandora.

13. My favorite attraction is the World’s Largest Bullet. You might think it’s a waste of money but I doubt you’ll find another one like it.

14. The place that I don’t like going to? Easy, Moxxi’s Underdome. Why would I go there when I can murder people from the comforts of the Armory?

15. I had a bunch of ear ringer tweetergram photos that my secre-friendy took but most were damaged when I found her charred body.

16. Before being assigned to Pandora, they had wanted me to be a suicide help line operator. I’d think I would be the last person someone would want on the other end of the line.

17. If you think you can take me out, remember this: I won a fight against myself. Though I hate to say that it cost me an eye.

18. What’s the deal with that Scooter guy? He came up to me one day asking if I “wanted to catch his ride” and I’m sure it was him hitting on me. He’s lucky I didn’t kill him.

19. Of all the guidelines we are expected to follow, I have trouble with the one about not murdering “civies.”

20. Thanks to the Vault Hunters, my suicide attempt was thwarted. Never mind the fact that the large bomb I had was just for looks.

21. My troops are “retarded.” Anyone other there with an IQ higher than Admiral Mickey’s breakfast is more than welcomed to join the Crimson Lance.

22. Despite what people think, I don’t hate ferrets. I just like to assault them.

23. I knew it was time to take matters into my own hands when Admiral Mikey sent me an “important” package filled with 14 sponges, melted chocolate, and a mix tape.

24. I tried to talk the Vault Hunters into blowing Pandora up with me but they turned me down.

25. You’d think someone like me in the future would be more tech savvy than I am. But most of the technological stuff was handled by my secre-friendy.

What"s the difference between Grand Theft and Petty Theft? in Grand

Beyond the fact that the law stipulates that stealing is illegal, a surprising number of citizens don’t know the applications and criteria of petty theft versus grand theft. Examining, comparing and contrasting the two will give a comprehensive understanding for anyone who needs clarification.

The following information is provided as a reference only, contact a Dallas Felony attorney where required.

Grand Theft

Grand theft is the unauthorized stealing of property of a certain value. The threshold dollar amount at which theft is classified as grand theft differs across state governments, as do the considerations of the various other circumstances surrounding the crime such as the use of force. Most people think of grand theft auto, or the stealing of a car, when they hear the term, but it can apply to anything at or above the threshold dollar amount. Often times there have been extenuating circumstances in which the plaintiff and defendant had a relationship or a prior agreement that went awry, or that a monetary value of the stolen property could not be determined. The general premise, however, remains the same: the word “grand” marks grand theft as more severe than petty theft, warranting felony charges and longer sentences.

Petty Theft

Petty theft is often dismissed as a lesser crime, simply because the items that are stolen are almost always of lesser value than with grand theft. There are a number of pretenses that accompany the charge of petty theft once it has been raised. First, as it is distinct from burglary, petty theft involves the unlawful stealing from an establishment when one is permitted to be there.

This can be a retail store, house, or anywhere else. If forceful or otherwise unlawful entry onto the premises were an element of the crime, the charge would be burglary. Although it isn’t universal, a very common threshold for petty theft is any item or items amounting to 0 or less.

Similarities and Differences

Both instances involve the same premise: the unlawful stealing of an object or objects, with the obvious difference being the issue of monetary value. Both grand theft and petty theft are charges issued at the discretion of the presiding governing body, whether that be a judge, jury, or a combination. This means that individuals who committed petty theft while also committing another heinous, violent act may be charged for grand theft. Conversely, extenuating circumstances can allow for someone who committed grand theft to be charged with petty theft. Essentially, both charges are similar in their premises and the fact that they can be used flexibly, while different in their application and specified criteria.
