             @JMess
Have you heard of this
thing called social media?
Today we’ll talk about
• Building your brand using social media by…
  1. inspiring your fans and followers to promote you
      by sharing their stories or spreading yours.
  2. engaging your staff to produce engaging content
      to help tell your museum’s story.
  3. using video and multimedia to share your story.
• ―We always like to say that we don’t own our
  social media channels, our fans do. As a
  result, our social media strategy is aimed at
  growing and maintaining a highly engaged
  global community of Dunkin’ Donuts fans. We
  work to consistently provide meaningful
  content and promote a two-way dialogue
  between the brand and our passionate fans.‖
  –   Interactive Marketing Manager, Dunkin’ Donuts

Know your brand
•   Biggest and Best
•   Fun and Imaginative
•   Always Changing
•   Family Learning and Memories
Build your brand by…
1) inspiring your fans and
 followers to share their
stories and promote YOU
• Provide extraordinary
  customer service
  – Be available
  – Be responsive
  – Be transparent
• Be engaging
  – ―BE the moss‖
  – ―CROAK! The
    paparazzi found
    me again!‖
  – ―Does this moss
    make my butt
    look green?‖
SCVNGR
                Treasures of the Earth campaign

• 80 user-generated blog
  posts
  – ―Each and every time we visit The Children's
    Museum of Indianapolis, we all—not just the
    kids—explore, discover, and learn
    something new. It can be a fact. It can be a
    feature within an exhibit. It can be a new
    skill. It can even be the realization that
    through exploring, trying new things and
    learning, you can do anything you set your
    mind to.‖
  – Over 200 people at the museum
    participating
Membership Drive
• 100 user generated stories
  – ―Seeing the looks on our grandsons' faces the first time they entered the
    Dinosphere was beyond description.‖

  – ―I couldn't possibly pick just one memory from the Children's Museum. My entire
    extended family has grown up going to the Children's Museum.‖

  – ―Our kids will never forget the heart pounding chug and whistle of the Reuben
    Wells, the graceful, calming sea of glass in the Chihuly exhibit, their favorite
    carousel horses and the day they were finally old enough to ride a "jumper," and
    of course the hours and hours splashing, imagining, and sometimes even
    learning to share in "Playscape."
100 Toys

Build your brand by…
2) engaging your staff for
         content.
Content Crew
• Content is everywhere—curators,
  interpretation, exhibit developers, school
  services.
Content Crew
• Inspired by Sports Illustrated
  – There is no digital department
  – Producing more with the same
  – Editorial and design workflow changes
  – Sports Illustrated doesn’t think of itself as a
    magazine, but as a sports media company.

     Source: http://mashable.com/2011/07/31/sports-illustrated-inside-look/
Content Crew
• Culture shift at the museum
• Crew meets quarterly to talk about content
  already being produced and brainstorm
  ideas
• Only reward? Pizza and a button
Content Sharing Example
• Interpretation article written for an outside
  publication…once shared with the group…
  – Used as a series on the blog
  – Social posts
  – Shared w/ local reporter who blogged about it
  – Inspired video series
