ThatsGreissy 59 Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 What I think the VHL needs For those of you that done know me, i just graduated from college with an advanced degree in sport management. Through this program, i have learned many valuable things about sport and how to manage leagues and tournaments amongst other things. One important thing i Learned during my time in school was the importance of social media. Social media is the backbone of many sports organization worldwide, and it is such because of its ability to quickly and effectively disperse important information to the public. Heres why i think this pertains to the VHL. Through completing a basic google search, it is clear the VHL does not have much of a social media presence. But thats understandable, it is a difficult thing to manage and it takes a lot of time. But I think, with the right people, social media could exponentially grow this league. What the VHL should do? I think the VHL should hire a handful of social media personnel from the league, and create a social media presence on Instagram. Instagram has quickly become one of the most used social media platforms and many professional teams and gaming teams/leagues use it daily to market themselves. If the VHL were to create an instagram, we could post scores, updates, important new and articles about the league and try to market ourselves into a new growth phase. The position of social media team could offer a weekly TPE allowance, and a further recommendation would be to create a un-capped TPE task that anyone can participate in where players send in potential social media posts that could be used by the social media team. If any VHL admin read this and would like to discuss the idea further and in more depth, please feel free to reach out to me in the forum or on Discord at Bastian Greiss#1693 Laine and JigglyGumballs 2 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/101866-vhlcom-article-what-i-think-the-vhl-needs/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joking aside, I'm all for this ngl. There were talks about potentially being more active on Instagram and more so Twitter in hopes of potentially using it as a form of recruitment. Reddit was honestly a good place to recruit until certain circumstances happened. Though yeah a better social media presence is much appreciated. Problem is that burnout happens way too often. As those who want to try and run VHL social media often are doing other things in both irl and in the VHL.
