Hello, Tumblr!

My name is Tony and I was a 40-year-old who went back to school for marketing so I could do a career pivot out of the world of manufacturing into the world of sales. The adjustment was like a kick in the teeth; however, it ended well with me having a 92% average. In my last semester (Fall 2018), I created a Twitter channel where I started posting about strategies that I used that seemed directly linked to my success. The channel has done quite well with a lot of organic growth & I have expanded to Instagram, and as of today, Tumblr.  (I find the lack of character limit a real breather...)

WHAT TO EXPECT...

CONTENT. I’ll post a few of my Pro Tips that will be useful for mature students, or anybody going into college/university.

STORIES: I’ll share stories from my own experience and that of our community. I would also love to hear your story too, because many times it feels like you’re alone - when you are not.

COMMUNITY: Hopefully there will be lots of other content, so as a community we can all overcome this together.

For more frequent content, please feel free to follow me on Twitter or Instagram at @1maturestudent! I’d love to follow you on this journey and share my journey with you.

Peace,

Tony

Here’s my video introduction - sorry for the “photogenic” preview smile. :o(

What is the purpose of #socialmedia? I'm sure there are several reasons out there, ranging from self-promotion to sharing stuff with friends and prospecting. Although I've certainly dabbled in some of the above, a big part of it is encouragement and education.

I'm sorry. It's not you - it's me. All kidding aside, this former #maturestudent has been so busy looking for a full-time job that my #socialmedia accounts have taken a hit. Call this a #marketingfail. There will be less content, but I still aim to post a few times a week. Thx! While I have you there - how has your semester been? Message me or Comment below.
