After more than 15 months trading Facebook has passed the $38 IPO and has increased to around 85% at the moment. The shares of the giant organization have doubled since they started at a low of $17.55 in the year 2012. This week the company saw 135,723,000 shares being traded, and this made the company one of the best in the trading arena. The shares went up by 2.67%, and this was an attractive increase. The overall increase in graphical representation is shown below.
In conclusion, the reasons for the increase in share prices was the fact that the company was still strong in their marketing strategies and their awesome products were being used by most people around the world (Boswijk 1938). Facebook is seen as the best market place provider through their mobile apps which improve the ecosystem of the company. The company can increase their revenues in future if they stick to those marketing strategies they have been using. They are also becoming more lenient with teens because they want them to share content and information. This will aptly increase their clientele base and presence around the globe.
