11. Should I be on the Social Media Bandwagon?
A Social Media Checklist before you embark on Social Media…
11 Steps Social Media Strategy Checklist
Set you asking yourself whether you should be on the social
media bandwagon
Question to Ask: “What is in it for Me”
11 Copyright © 2011 Adonai Training LLP. All rights reserved.
12. 11 Steps Social Media Strategy Checklist
Ask yourself, “What’s in it for Me…”
1. What are we trying to accomplish? Are you looking for more leads, more
direct sales, greater brand awareness, conversions, or brand engagement?
Understanding what you're trying to actually do with your social media
presence should be the first step in developing a social media strategy.
2. Why social media? Is your audience there? Do you want to build stronger
relationships with customers and prospects? Tap into online word-of-
mouth channels? Demonstrate that you're down with the kids? You have
a niche audience that's difficult to reach otherwise? The best way to avoid
recklessly jumping on the bandwagon is to examine why the wagon is the
best way to get where you're going before you hop on. Ask yourself: is
spending money on social media going to provide better ROI than other
forms of advertising you could be spending money on?

13. 11 Steps Social Media Strategy Checklist
Ask yourself, “What’s in it for Me…”
3. What kind of social media will help us best achieve our goals? Do you
need to utilize social networking sites, blogs, real-time updates (e.g.,
Twitter), social news sites, media-sharing sites, review/directory sites,
virtual worlds, or display ads on social media sites? In some respects,
talking about a social media presence is like talking about having an
advertising presence: you must specify what you're doing and where
you're going to place it. Examine the characteristics of the type of social
media you want to have a presence on and how those characteristics fit
what you're trying to accomplish to help choose the ones that will work
best for you.
4. Are we prepared to let go of control of our brand, at least a little? You
can't participate in social media without being...well...social. And that
means engaging in a conversation with customers. Once you engage in a
conversation, you have to give up control. Is your company willing to do
that?

14. 11 Steps Social Media Strategy Checklist
Ask yourself, “What’s in it for Me…”
5. Are you prepared and willing to give away quality, relevant and updated
information for free? You won't be able to build a community of followers
if you do not have something to offer to them for free. This information is
the very topic or common interest which draws the crowd in to you and
gather together to converse. But if you are not will give anything or at
least some things away for free, then there is nothing to offer to your
fans. There will be no reason for them to congregate together to converse.
Are you willing to give away some information that is quality, relevant and
updated for free?
6. What will we do to encourage participation? There's nothing more
embarrassing than going to a corporate YouTube channel and seeing that
the viral video it spent tons of money making has just 127 views. Ditto for
going to a company's Twitter feed and seeing that it has all of 11
followers. What are you planning to do to drive people to your social
media presence? And do you have the money to do it?

15. 11 Steps Social Media Strategy Checklist
Ask yourself, “What’s in it for Me…”
7. Who will maintain our social media presence? Participating in social
media takes a lot of work. You must have something to say and you must
have someone (or a team of people) to say it on a regular basis. It won't
happen unless it becomes part of someone's job. Do you have someone
ready to commit a big chunk of time to maintaining your social media
presence?
8. Do we have the resources to keep this up, or will this be a short
campaign? Similarly, unless you specify that what you're doing has a
limited duration (such as a Twitter feed based on a particular conference),
people will expect you to keep it up. Have you budgeted the resources to
continue your social media presence beyond the fiscal year?

16. 11 Steps Social Media Strategy Checklist
Ask yourself, “What’s in it for Me…”
9. How does engaging users via social media integrate into our overall
marketing/communications strategy? None of this stuff exists in a
vacuum. It has to be part of a larger marketing/communications strategy.
How does social media fit into what you're trying to do in all your other
channels, and how will you use those channels to support each other?
10. How do we measure success? What constitutes failure? Are you
measuring views, followers, comments, or subscribers? What's the
threshold for your success metrics that takes them into success territory?
What happens if you don't get there?
11. What will we do less of if we're spending resources on social media?
Chances are you have limited dollars. If you spend more money on social
media and other nontraditional forms of marketing, you have to spend
less on something else. How will your overall goals be impacted by taking
money away from other forms of advertising/marketing and moving it
into social media?

23. The Four Pillars
Think of your Social Media Strategy as a platform supported by 4 pillars…
Pillar 1 - Communication
• Contents - What are you communicating to your customers?
• Where do I generate/source for the right contents?
• Which particular content triggers the most beneficial action, response or behaviours
from your audience?
• How do you measure the effectiveness of your communication strategy using some
of the social media tools?
Pillar 2 - Collaboration
• What are the social media tools to use that will foster collaboration between you
and your customers or even your employees/coworkers?
• These are the tools that your customers can use to engage with you. E.g. Wiki –
allows you to collaboratively create and edit content. It is a method of collaboration
and a product of the collaboration.
• Case example – Schwab created a customer advisory community to discuss issues,
share opinions and provide feedback on the products. For 5-15 minutes of mind
sharing per week, they get some benefits in return.

24. The Four Pillars
Think of your Social Media Strategy as a platform supported by 4 pillars…
Pillar 3 - Education
• Convert your Expertise into Contents
• Find a Need and Meet the Need with a Solution
• Educate your internal and external audiences with relevant and quality materials
• Leverage on your expertise and/or the expertise of your employees
• E.g. Big Tony – a real-life license master plumber – “Big Tony the Plumber”
(www.PlumbingVideoTutorials.com) – YouTube videos
Pillar 4 - Entertainment
• Entertain your audience by finding the attributes of your product or aspects of your
company that others might consider entertaining
• Be careful, entertaining is not equal to funny or offensive jokes. Just respect humour.
• E.g. Kitchen Blenders – YouTube videos
