23. UPCOMING TREND:
VINE: Twitter
INSTAGRAM: Facebook
This is something that marketers and brands will undoubtedly
be drawn to when designing user content campaigns.
24. UPCOMING TREND: CHALLENGES
•Businesses need to decide whether they really think
that’s an important, or even appropriate environment for
them to appear in.
•Limited time format – worth a serious investment in
time, money & manpower
•Branded videos might get lost in a pool of personal
videos - ‘Sunday on the beach or my first rollercoster ride’
•Advertising in Instagram videos
25. CASE STUDY 1:
Research showed that while men are usually involved in the
purchase and labour of painting, they’re not overly enthused by the
planning process. To help remedy this CIL, a Canadian paint
company, created a Facebook app and invited people to create
more ‘manly’ paint colour names. Notable examples include ‘beer
foam’; ‘razor burn’; ‘hockey puck’; and ‘pansy violet’.
Over a 45-day period and on a small budget, the campaign
generated well over $1,000,000 in earned media exposure, 100
million online impressions and most importantly, a 10% increase in
sales.
There were:
Over 15,000 paint chip names created
Over 20,000 unique users
And the average user spent 10 minutes using the app
27. CONCLUSIONS:
•It is an exciting time now in the word of social.
•Our collective grasp of once obscure and shrouded
processes are becoming illuminated, allowing marketers
to do better, more measurable work.
•Yet the ceaseless innovation within the field presents
new challenges and questions seemingly every week.
•Maintaining an understanding of the emerging trends
in social is crucial.
