Module 2-The Online Ecosystem Final LK

Activity 14

Instructions:

a) Work on your own. b) Use the template below to create an outline of an action plan you could follow to establish your online presence and create an online ecosystem. This will just be a rough draft that you can work on later.

Problem: Goal: Action plans:

 Actions (steps you plan to take to achieve your goals)  Persons in charge or person responsible for handling each step  Timeline (deadline for each step)  Resources (assets needed for each step)  Potential barriers (factors that may prevent you from achieving each step)  Outcomes (desired results for each step)

Evidence of success: Tracking and evaluation process:

e.g. increase in traffic to your website by x%

e.g. assessing sales made, profit, number of customer complaints, etc.

7. Summary

To summarise we have identified what an online ecosystem is. We have looked at all the parts that make up an online ecosystem.

We have discussed various social media sites that you can use to advertise your business and why this is so important. You want to attract as much traffic to your website as possible so you can make a lot of sales. We have found that it is important to set goals to work towards. We need to break down the bigger goals into smaller ones. Once this is done we can allocate tasks to certain people or we can create a list of tasks we need to complete to set up the online ecosystem. It is very important to monitor what tasks we have achieved and what we haven’t achieved until the website is up and working well.
