- Ketchum Pleon knows, It’s Difficult There is a lot of information out there and it seems that agencies and brands can’t find their own way through this messy environment.
- “ Be yourself. ” It ’ s one of the rules of social media. If you ’ re blogging, tweeting or Facebooking for business, be real—or you won ’ t be followed. Yet, how do you pull off “ authentic ” while maintaining the company brand message? It ’ s tough enough for a small business. What if you ’ re #2 on Business Week ’ s best global brands list, with nearly 400,000 employees across 170 countries? At IBM, it ’ s about losing control. “ We don ’ t have a corporate blog or a corporate Twitter ID because we want the ‘ IBMers ’ in aggregate to be the corporate blog and the corporate Twitter ID, ” says Adam Christensen, social media communications at IBM Corporation. “ We represent our brand online the way it always has been, which is employees first. Our brand is largely shaped by the interactions that they have with customers. ” Thousands of IBMers are the voice of the company. Such an approach might be surprising for #14 on the Fortune 500.
- These activities are not fully integrated into the overall marketing mix. From medium to medium they might be consistent, but they’re consistently not converting into any kind of meaningful ROI.
- Why? To find for different audiences ways to add value to the total online culture. Instead of just using the latest tools & channels to tell a brand’s story.
- that could be used by one of different communities. It is no problem, to experiment with, as long as you’re smart about it. And the experiments are coherent & authentic.
- How to collaborate ? Find people who are already doing cool things in / for your target audience, and work with them to create something new, exciting and useful.
- A broad group like dads, moms, students or athletes are definable in lots of niche communities with specific interests . For a a brand it’s important to identify the relevant niches and create ways to engage with each of them in its own way .
