Below are the images used to create the project more details here.













"Developing the project was a great challenge for me and everything started like this:"

Before starting my Project Capstone was monitoring the social network Twitter in the business community of Venezuelan cocoa  and I found a good response to my tweets and also I could see the needs they have on several factors: funding support to develop their industries, sitioWeb, management of social networks, among others.







The most effective link I've shared in two social networks: facebook and twitter. In facebook was received the greatest acceptance in a community of students of Web Development.

With this experience I could see completing my idea about the purpose of the project.

According to the articles that I found on the International Recognition of the Venezuelan chocolate and my experience in courses that I have taken for   Specialization Social Media Marketing. 

I would recommend three actions to follow to the Venezuelan cacao producers and especially to the national government:
  • Promote, more the agricultural programs: In Venezuela is grown the best cocoa in the world it should continue maintaining quality standards in all production processes to increase the production and export of cocoa products to become, as at one time it was, in the first producer and exporter of cocoa in the world right now that has fallen steeply oil prices it affecting the Venezuelan economy.

  • Country of opportunities: Venezuela is a country with viable investment for companies that want to project and positively influence the economies scenarios. Nestle, is a prime example of the trajectory and evolution of these businesses it may have in the country. The invitation is for the national and international investors to do business and grow their economies, in this country of opportunities.
