Research project on social media for Smart Fit Girls

2.  Personally, I don’t think people want to search
for things. I like how the Proud 2B Me website
uses buttons at the bottom of their home page.
These buttons include: donate, join the nation,
and stamp out. This allows to links to the
resources that your website provides at many
different locations on the page
 Could create discussion forums that encourage
support groups
 Blogs: there is a link to your posts on the home
page, but it isn’t that inviting. Spark attention. I
believe that hearing our stories can be inspiring,
convicting, supportive, and informative. Draw
your internet viewers to your words because
they hold weight.

3.  One thing I noticed is that Proud 2B Me
provides a lot of info. People are wowed by
numbers and statistic, they want proof and
they want to know they aren’t alone. Your
studies are grounded in research, show that/
give links to that. (reference the real deal
drop down tab)
 I do like their use of Q&A. I think this is
something that will allow you to make even
the smallest difference and hook people into
joining your program for long term help and
counsel

4.  Everyone loves a quotable moment
-Just a thought… put pictures of sticky notes on the
page for SFG that girls have written or create your own
with encouraging words
 Most of Proud 2B Me’s pages provide links to articles
and references for girls should be proud to be
themselves, this includes: food, media, fashion, ect.
-Personally I want to see original work and I think that’s
what you guys provide with your blogs and workout
designs along with curriculum
-Speaking of curriculum, the SFG site should probably
be updated with how to become a coach, including
things that your crowd funding video talks about
 I also like that they include interviews, you have
some footage for interviews, I think that is something
you can put to use here

6.  Here are some things that stand out to me on
the Proud 2Be Me website:
-After looking through the website it is very
crowded, I like that yours isn’t so don’t try to get
too carried away. Draw the crowd in but don’t
create one yourself
-They seem to use a downstream approach
-it acknowledges viewpoints that are
already developed and tries to fix stigmas that
don’t include the viewers input, reiterate the
autonomy that SFG/SFC creates and the fact that
they are creating new norms/expectancies that
advert from health problems
