Notas do Editor
- Most organizations are still in social silos. To be effectively social, you must break free from the silos and integrate with all other departments for optimum effectiveness.
- Regular people matter
- FREEYou should already be using these. If not, you are behind.Company name, CEO, projects, prospects, etc.Include misspellings, quotes, etc.
- This is just a small sampling of vendors for public relations service providers which include services such as monitoring and distribution.
- HAROFree to sign up.Three e-mails a day.Only respond where it makes sense.Follow the 5 rules of HARO.
- Opt in mechanism; choose to view your video; people who already know you; might introduce you and your message to another group.
- Media has fragmented, and the traditional marketing funnel is more like a bowl of spaghetti. Proactive, megaphone messages can get lost in the shuffle, or easily tuned out by customers. Especially in ED, where the target audience is so narrow, focusing on inbound marketing is a better way to promote. Create smart, HELPFUL content and put it in places and formats will it will be found. Google’sground-breaking Zero Moment of Truth research (zeromomentoftruth.com) found that we are moving to the era of self-serve information. In 2010 people consumed 5.3 pieces of information before making a purchase. Just one year later, it was 10.4 pieces of information. A separate study found that B2B buyers want at least 60% of their questions answered before they talk to a real person.

- Take advantage of the opportunity economy. Every day conversations are occurring that are directly or indirectly relevant to your ED organization. Martell Homebuilders in New Brunswick increased sales by 400% by “listening at the point of need” on Twitter and elsewhere. They were fast AND helpful. They set up searches and every time someone mentioned New Brunswick, their CEO would tweet back and say “hey, I’m in New Brunswick. How can I help you? What do you need to know?” Nothing about selling houses, as that information will be easily discovered.But, if you tweet that person back in 3 days, you’ve lost the momentum.The same is true with blog and forum comments, Linkedin Groups, Linkedin Answers, and just about every place where consumer-generated content lives online. If you are blog comment number one, every person that reads that blog will see your comment. If you are comment number 23, far fewer people will see the comment. It’s the NOW Revolution. Speed wins. Or kills.
