First Blog Ever!

I must say, I was the type to admit blogging was something I'd never take part in. But with the continuous increasing rates of use among corporations, small businesses, employees, students, professors, and many others I can see it has the same social media effects as Facebook and Twitter. Blogging is essential in the marketing world. People can have access to quick information on a specific topic or business they'd like to learn more about. It's sometimes easier for a consumer of a product to go read blogs written on products or related brands of a product, even corporations employees blogging about the the ins and outs of the business they work for without all of the extra information that could be placed on a website. After being introduced to a blog, someone may spark interest in the organization that was blogged about, thus leading them to possibly visit their website and in turn creating an even more populated media market for that particular product or company.

I can now welcome myself into the blogging world with confidence that this can bring me great knowledge amongst this end of the social network. I am very familiar with LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook which are also great social networking sites that I have a background with regarding that spectrum of marketing.

This blog will be based on day to day experiences that we all can relate to as well as some information on marketing that I'll be obtaining from courses I'm enrolled in at Western Connecticut State University. I will also be posting some up-to-date information on how my racing career is going.

This is a picture of the racecar I drive, it is an SK Light Modified and can be raced at Thompson Speedway, Waterford Speedway, or Stafford Motor Speedway (all located in Connecticut).

The #25 car was mine about 2 years ago, but my family sold it because we couldn't supply the expensive funding it requres any longer.

I'm excited to have a blog because it is somewhere I can post my thoughts, ideas, and updated status on racing for those who are interested. It can really help me out in the future!
