So apparently the NMSU tweets show up on my Twitter feed and I noticed that there was a tweet that the NMSU official footbal page just reached 22,000 followers. This made me curious and I looked at the UTEP official football page and saw that they only have 17,700 followers. Some may say…so what? But I find this very alarming. I then looked up both schools mbb pages and once again, NMSU has about 3,000 more followers than UTEP. As I know from my nephews, Twitter is the format that many of the younger generation uses and I find it shocking that UTEP has fallen so far behind NMSU in this. Social media is free advertising and it’s no wonder we can’t get more butts in the seats. Utep really needs to come up with something to get more followers on their social media accounts. I do like what coach Kill is doing at NMSU with calling football fans their stakeholders and calling all NMSU football alumni to sign up and be recognized. Very strong look for them. So easy and this is what gets people excited.
On a side note, I work in the retail industry and getting customers to sign up on our social media platforms is part of our “loyalty” programs. Those that are signed up, get the deals, and will shop and spend more money with us. So easy and it looks like UTEP, once again, is falling behind…
