9. AWARD IN SOCIAL MEDIA EXCELLENCE The Judging Criteria

10. AWARD IN SOCIAL MEDIA EXCELLENCE Best Airport in Social Media

13. We’ve got a Twitter customer service programme in place that is tried and tested: In the week before Christmas, we successfully dealt with an average of 300 tweets an hour

14. We are the first airport to use mobile barcodes as public information points

15. We are the first European airport to put all our retail and food outlets up for instant online reviews

16. We are the first European airport to have an Instagram feed

17. Social media provides intelligence for the business as a whole at the most senior levels12

18. 13 Background Oct - Dec 2009 - Gatwick sold from BAA to GIP June 2010 - Gatwick rebranded, focus on making the airport a more human experience. £1 billion investment announced 13 06 October 2011

21. Find ways to elicit passenger feedback, improve customer services

22. Make a difference on the ground

23. Support airline and commercial partners

24. Help shape LGW’s clear and distinctive positioning vs LHR14

26. Some passengers will stay as little as 60-90 minutes in the airport environment - the window to reply to them is fairly small

27. The answer - introduce Twitter as a (near enough) round the clock customer services tool and help passengers in real time when they are in the airport environment

28. Train operations staff. Actively encourage people to call Gatwick out while at the airport15

29. 16 Using Twitter as a proactive customer services tool 16 06 October 2011

33. Bring in an interactive element

34. Our solution was to work with Stickybits - 2D codes that look like the ones you see in supermarkets. Any kind of content can be attached to them19

35. 20 Giant barcodes - Currently there are around half a dozen landside. Airside codes coming soon 20 06 October 2011

36. 21 “We need a way to allow passengers to feed back on airport facilities using mobile / social media” Step Three 06 October 2011 21

38. Build a ratings and review system from scratch - problem of impartiality and also retailer relations

39. Or alternatively - use an existing review tool like Qype which has an API that can be pulled in

40. Qype is very popular with over 20 million visitors per month through local listings / SEO and mobile applications and is European based22 06 October 2011

41. Integration of Qype. Leave reviews (good and bad) and they appear directly on the Gatwick website

43. First European airport feed on Instagram

44. A Tumblr site, which will act as a visual showcase

45. Use of Gowalla / Foursquare

46. We support retailers and airlines on an ad-hoc basis. For example, Air Berlin and Monarch24

47. 25 Why is this campaign different? 1 - It treats social media as a platform, not a channel 2 - It has been given time to work 3 - It is two way in a real sense 4 - Senior management is attuned to social media - comments are seen and acted upon Awards won so far: Innovation in online customer services (econsultancy) Best use of digital media for customer services (Digicomms Awards) Best use of social media (CIPR Awards) 25 06 October 2011
