Notas do Editor
- Make sure everyone filled out the quiz. Note that presentation will be available at our slideshare account tomorrow.
- Watch out for time drain
- Start listening, add value to the conversation. Remember, it’s not about you.
- Stop over thinking things. Social media is new and rapidly evolving – no one is an expert. It’s okay to make mistakes.
- These days people don’t call customer support lines when they are unhappy – They post their complaint on Twitter and Facebook. Likewise, when they are happy, they share their experience with friends. You may be holding out because you’re worried about the vulnerability of social media, but you’re at greater risk by not participating.
- It’s okay! The good news is you can only get better, and we’ll discuss some tips today that will help you get off to a great start.
- Seriously, how exciting is a blender??? Let’s take a look at one of the most successful viral marketing campaigns to date.
- Blendtec “Will it Blend” – They’ve blended everything from iPads to World Cup Vuvuzelas (complete list on Wikipedia). They have millions of views on Youtube and Tom Dickson, Blentec Founder claims it has had a direct impact on sales.
- Okay, how fun are taxes? HR is another notable case study of a company with a less than glamorous product/service that has done extremely well in social media. They use Twitter as a means of finding and engaging new customers, and serving existing customers. Also very active on Facebook and Youtube.
- Measuring ROI with social media is possible – Dell attributes over $3M in sales to a single analytics account. Facebook and other platforms are working to make analytics more accessible to business owners. Website analytics makes it possible to track sales generated through these channels.
- Let’s not forget the power of a relationship - A relationship equates to opportunity, so it is difficult to measure the TOTAL value of social media. Think about the reason you go to a networking opportunity like this event today – Because it creates opportunity for you – But you couldn’t assign a dollar value to every person in this room.
- Your content strategy defines what type of information you will deliver to your target audiences and the schedule for which you will deliver it.
- Your content strategy defines what type of information you will deliver to your target audiences and the schedule for which you will deliver it.
- Get creative with these angles, or feel free to come up with your own. Brevity is a good thing online, so try to deliver information in small, highly focused segments.
- Write catchy titles and keep them brief
- Good user experience - Good design, clean, simple navigation, easy to get to main website
- Nice use of photos and commentary with photos, facebook integration for sharing “likes”, gain credibility through awards/acheivements
- Facebook Pages are created for businesses and Facebook continues to add new business-friendly features such as Facebook Places, etc. Tabs can be customized to include interactive content such as forms, coupons accessible to fans etc.
- Over 4k fans or “likes”. Active wall, good about following up with every user’s comments.
- Good use of photography in themed albums
- Customized their tabs with some interactive content, but didn’t rename the tab with something relevant such as “Vote Now” so it still says “Boxes”
- Don’t use twitter to manage your twitterUse a combo of evergreen and “now” tweets
- Allows me to post to multiple social networks – Facebook, Twitter and Linked in. Allows me to organize streams to better manage my time – can watch friends list, or industry experts list, and I can manage all my “mentions” so I know how to respond.
- Detailed profile, authentic picture, having conversations with her audience (not a 1 way street), using hashtags
- 100% means adding a photo and getting recommendations for most people. Join professional and special interest groups to expand your network and join conversations. Answers is a great way for you to demonstrate your expertise.
- Using a tool to post to twitter and Linked in with timely status updates. Lots of recommendations builds credibility. Note the “Answers” link location.
