GCT — goals · content · targeting

Questions for you, Noel

Answer these and your audit sharpens from good to precise. These are the gaps where your goals, content focus, or target audience weren’t fully clear to us.

1

Name confusion: Hawkins vs. Jacobson

Is the name change recent (marriage)? Does she want to consolidate everything under "Noël Jacobson" going forward? Has she updated or does she plan to update her photography brand, Instagram handles, and web presence to reflect the Jacobson name?

2

Two separate identities with no bridge

Does she see Snow Creative Co (photography) and her Berry Companies marketing career as separate brands, or does she want a unified personal brand that showcases both? Is the photography a long-term business she intends to grow, or a side project winding down?

3

No personal marketing portfolio site

Does she have a place online where she showcases her marketing work (Berry Companies social content, the viral TikTok, WSU campaigns, Fairmount Project client work)? If not, is she open to building one? LinkedIn alone is insufficient as a portfolio for competitive marketing roles.

4

Berry Tractor viral TikTok — her specific contribution

What was her actual role in the Berry Tractor 78K-view TikTok? Did she create the concept, film it, edit it, or all three? Is she the face of their TikTok strategy or one of several contributors? Does Berry Companies, Inc. (corporate) have a TikTok?

5

Personal TikTok absent

She creates TikTok content professionally for Berry Tractor but has no confirmed personal TikTok. Is that deliberate? Is there a company policy about personal TikTok for Berry employees? Given her age and skillset, personal TikTok could be a major authority builder.

6

Instagram counts not public

What are the current follower counts on @noelhawkins and @snowcreativeco? Are either growing or stagnant? Which is her "primary" personal Instagram?

7

Goals for the Dennis Yu workshop

Is she attending primarily to grow Berry Companies' social presence, to grow Snow Creative Co's bookings, or to build her own personal brand for career mobility? The answer dramatically changes what to optimize.

8

Content creator vs. marketing manager trajectory

Does she see herself staying in corporate social media, or does she want to eventually go independent (freelance social media consultant, full-time photographer, or content creator)?
