Sell With Social: In this activity, students become a Social Media Officer and advise a sports brand on enhancing sales via social media platforms. A sports brand is launching a new clothing range for men and women. They don’t have a shop, so they use online platforms to sell to customers. Students need to analyse which posts are most effective in leading to sales. Help the sports brand analyse the performance of the social media platforms and help them to decide which platforms sell the most clothes and how they should use them to launch the new clothing range.
