What Is AOP?
Annual operating planning,
or AOP, refers to the budget
the company establishes for
each fiscal year
Developing an annual
operating plan enables the
business to manage
income and expenses
against established
expectations.
While unexpected events
occur, having an AOP
provides the business with
a adjustable roadmap for a
fiscal year. September to
November is crucial AOP
planning time.

•Integrating digital and social media asks as part of a more detailed
program will ensure an effective program and adequate budget asks a

Notas do Editor
We take our social connections with us everywhere
In an AOP plan, an organization evaluates prior data for all aspects of the business, including revenue, production, capacity, expenses and so forth and creates a forecast for the upcoming fiscal year. Setting an AOP requires input from numerous members of an organization, including those with responsibility for sales, marketing, production, compliance and many more.
When you examine all of the ways we can use social media to drive business, 4 areas emerge: Building brand reputation and value through: Demonstrating openness and responsiveness Delivering more relevant content Driving third-party advocacy
Creating customer value by: Activating loyalists Improving marketing effectiveness Getting customers to buy more
Increasing operating excellence through: Shortening time to market Reducing cost in development Testing ideas earlier
Strengthening workforce and culture by: Enabling employees to advocate Training the workforce Collaboration
Business value is found between managing the risks and pursuing the rewards. Standing still is no longer an option.
SOURCE: CMO Survey (Feb 2013): http://www.marketingcharts.com/wp/direct/cmos-bullish-about-social-media-spending-27300/ CMOs say that social media currently accounts for 8.4% of their marketing budgets, but that social’s share of the pie will jump to 11.5% over the next 12 months, and climb all the way to 21.6% share in the next 5 years. The latest survey shows that current spending (as a share of total marketing budgets) is highest among B2C-services companies (9.9%), with B2C-product (9.6%) and B2B-services (9.6%) companies close behind.
We have developed a simple planning framework to deliver the most effective integrated model every time.
There are five steps to create an effective “always-on” program: Listen – we listen to what people are saying and searching for to help drive strategic insight and establish benchmarks Plan & Activate – we design social experiences around 3 key components – Content Activation, Influencer Management and Community Management. The social experience is the creative idea brought to a full experience that will earn people’s attention, advocacy and action Amplify – we scale the impact of programs via paid advertising, content syndication and ongoing digital media relations – each helps extend reach Manage – once we launch, we are always measuring performance and optimizing our approach.
We have developed a strong yet simple model for measuring the efficacy of our social media programs….
It aligns with a model everyone understands – the sales funnel and allows us to report out KPIs against Reach, Preference – did we increase preference for a brand or opinion, and Action
On February 13, 2013, US Senator Marco Rubio, while addressing millions of State of the Union viewers on television, hurriedly sipped from a Poland Springs bottle of water while on camera, which became the most talked about moment that evening on Twitter.
Social media users anxiously awaited the Poland Springs to respond to this unexpected moment, and the brand missed an opportunity to insert itself in conversations during this unexpected cultural event. We see that surprising audiences with a quick response to an unexpected moment is the staple of RTM marketing success.
As a result, for a subsequent campaign to promote personalised cans of tomato soup Heinz chose to use PayPal instead of selling directly on Facebook. Despite making the purchase journey a bit longer, we had no complaints as PayPal is a trusted online payment tool. Overall the soup sale achieved a global reach of 26m people, and gained a 650% increase in interactions on the page during the campaign. Ollerton said the key lessons they learned from the campaigns are that you have to reward people and innovate. You have to give people something they can’t get somewhere else, you can’t just replicate your e-commerce platform. Nokia global editor-in-chief for social media Thomas Messett echoed this sentiment. He said that too many companies use Facebook as a way to give away cheap products or discounts, which has no long-term benefit to the brand. If you put something cheap on your fan page, people will 'like' you to get something cheap. It doesn’t actually mean anything. Instead brands should use Facebook to offer exclusive or unique products to reward their fans, not just to replicate their e-commerce site. Messett said there is also value in rewarding customers for sharing purchases on Facebook, however brands have to make sure they get user consent first. Don’t be too pushy, it’s likely to turn people off. Frictionless sharing is a great idea, but Spotify has ruined it. This differentiates it from the traditional product launches consumers are used to seeing, and encourages Wispa fans to share the news with their Facebook friends. The photo of Mead holding the new product has attracted more than 1,500 ‘likes’ and 278 comments, meaning the launch will have also shown up in their friends’ news feeds. Cadbury is a good example of a brand utilising social effectively to generate buzz around its products and give the impression that its fans have some ownership over the brand. This is a cost effective way to leverage the brand's passionate customer base, establishing a market for a new product before it starts to appear in shops. Heinz ran a similar campaign in November around the release of a new ‘Tomato Ketchup blended with Balsamic Vinegar’. Facebook fans were offered the chance to buy the new product a month before it was released in shops. As brands continue to search for ways of converting their social media following into sales, product launches appear to be a simple way of gaining some tangible results from all those thousands of Facebook ‘likes’.
A personal favourite of mine and quite more recent, the idea of a “Famebook Fan” is to use a natural, organic comment on a Facebook page and create a campaign concept from it, usually adding a layer of surreal comedy to it. A more recent example that has gone from Mashable to Metro in less than 24 hours is Bodyform, a sanitary towels company. After Facebook fan Richard Neil posted a tongue-in-cheek accusation to the company for altering the perception of what going through the period really entails, the brand did the unthinkable.
The act of elevating some kind of user input (be it a Facebook post like this incident, or a more traditional letter to customer service like the case of Sainsburys Giraffe Bread)has yielded brands loads of benefits, such as:
Portrays the brand in a more human manner, making the brand more approachable and easy to forgive when something slips through the crack.
By adding a layer of comedy and a sprinkle of shock, they generate a lot of sharing, buzz online and earned media. Humour is proven to be one of the most powerful sharing triggers online.
Bridges the gap between creative planners and strategists, and the audience they are trying to target - opening up a bidirectional conversation.
It gives users a reason to be fans and engage with brands.
There are many different ways in which you can use the input of your social media audience at the core of your advertising campaign.
Being OK with losing some control and understanding the motivation of your audience to contribute with content or actions is key. From there on, it is a rather sweet journey to reach, advocacy, and engagement-lands.
