Why did this work
 It targets a hot topic and sensitive emotions
 It makes the audience feel like they are giving back
 Customers like to feel “loved” or at least
  “appreciated” by the brand they intend to
  purchase
 It just doesn’t feel like an ad
So what is

Promotion of brands, beliefs or
behaviors that have the opportunity
and ability to make a measurable and
substantial difference in societies. Also
called – “cause marketing” or
“marketing for good”
Indicators of this emerging trend
Other relevant social media
campaigns
Businesses emerging out of this
Companies like Socialvibe are specialising in
engaging audiences, particularly through
social change channels helping brands such
as: GE, Marriot, Nestle, Microsoft, Visa, Kraft, Nestle, Sony,
Microsoft, Apple, Toyota, P&G, etc
What is the goal of this
  messaging?


                       OF COURSE!




   True              Sincere                 Real for the
                                             cause

campaigns, tools, downloads
Keep in mind!
  Strategic   relevance to your brand

       (500,000 shares in 5 weeks) after the tie up
       with an non profit


  Donations in exchange for people powered
   media is cheaper than buying ad space

                                  Preferably, Seek a
Create a Strong Theme             Non-Profit Partner

              Humanize your Initiative




Connect the Theme,                Target a Well-Defined

                                  media
Conclusion
 The printing press, newspapers gave us
 recorded knowledge. Social media enables
 us to be a producer and access intelligence
 in other people.
 its not the information age, it’s the age of
 networked intelligence.

 In a world where sustainability is a rising
 concern, transparency demands brands to
 become Responsible.
Can a Soap prevent 2.1 million children from
dying ?




Can it eradicate diseases such as diarrhoea
and pneumonia in a country with a
population of over a billion?
The open world, is bringing empowerment
and freedom. It’s bringing about a big
change. It allows to think big, out of bounds.
That my dear friends, is the power of social
media

  2. Musicians from around the world collaborating to perform – stand by me. Not just the act of various musicians performing but also the lyrics that sum up the topic for today. Shared Awareness – the ability of each member of a group to not only understand the situation at hand, but understand that everyone else does too”Key phrase to note here is over time
  3. Clay Shirky for ProMalcolm Gladwell for Con – The revolution will not be tweeted
  4. Social issues are complex. Social media with its wide dispersion and permanent record of conversations can help narrow options and focus choices. No more door knocking, placards, pamphlets, to collect ppl. Now u can tweet urmsg and ppl can sign a petition with a mouse click or key stroke. Provide information and skills that are more relevant to their audience. L(EXAMPLES)

Tahrir Square(2011)Tunisia and Syria saw a spark in the number of FB Users Facebook to schedule protests, twitter to co-ordinate and youtube to tell the worldKhaled said – posted a video of police sharing drugs of drug bust and was killed. Page had 500,000 usersIn the Tunisian revolution, snipers of the regime were killing unarmed students in the streets. Students took mobile pics, triangulated the location, and sent to friendly military units who’d come in and take out snipers. IT WAS A MILITARY TOOL FOR SURVIVAL! In Syria, if ur injured, an ambulance would pick u, take u to a hosp and u’d come out with a shot in the head. Using twitter and other social tools, 20 somethings made an alternate health care system, so a car would come, pick up the person and take him/her to a make shift hospital.

  15. What’s the story…Yang Dacai- head of Shaanxi Province’s Safety Supervision Bureau, he was called to the scene of a ghastly bus crash that killed 36 bus passengers. For some reason, he was smiling inanely in a reporter’s photograph of the scene The Smiling Official went viral on Weibo, and infuriated netizens .Within a couple of days, he formally apologized and explained the smile on TVNetizens are not satisfied. Then five photos of him wearing five different luxury watches had been scoured from the Web and posted on Weibo. In total 11 pricey watches were identified.Then luxury suits, luxury belts, luxury eye glasses…Netizens start to “party”: searching for new evidences, making songs and videosYang is currently under investigation by the provincial disciplinary body
  16. Anghttp://news.xinhuanet.com/politics/2013-01/04/c_124178495.htm
  17. They post information directly related to their cause, including facts about teens, helpful links to resources, news stories focused on youth and a variety of direct interactions with their supporters. They started Tweeting in March of 2008, they’ve been able to successfully grow their following to more than 525,000 followers, thus significantly increasing the audience they are able to reach. Additionally, their use of Twitter led Mashable, one of the most popular blogs in the world with a Twitter following of over 2.8 million people, to include them in a list of non-profits on Twitter
  18. More specifically, they have a “Photo of the Day” album where they share the daily impacts their nonprofit is having on people on the other side of the world. They show a photo and write a short caption explaining the story behind what’s happening. Something as simple as one photo coupled with a compelling story can help make supporting your nonprofit much more concrete. Melissa Burmester, a project manager at charity: water, discussed the power that visuals can play in sharing the organization’s impact. “Rather than tell you what it’s like to walk three hours a day for drinking water – we’ll use visuals to show you... When we complete a water project, we report back to the donors with photos and GPS coordinates on Google Maps,” Burmester said. “It’s essential for our supporters to see their impact.” Charity: water’s supporters may not be able to travel to rural Africa, but they can see the impact their donation is having in rural Africa nonetheless.
  19. I will start with the dove campaignhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=818if1bkCdoBecause of social media, the reach, impact and engagement magnifiedhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=lnOSZX4tpOA
  20. Then I explain the outcome of the campaignStarting at a few thousands on facebook, generated more than 12 million facebook fans & 72,000 twitter followers
  21. Advertising on websites like businessweek and theweek would cost a few 1000s of dollars. But the social media social change initiative brought dove free of cost “Earned media”More than 15 million likes on youtube!
  22. Display of emotions by the ones participating
  23. So what was the social change : For women, beauty is a very sensitive issue, and it affects their confidence, their temperament eventually impacting their workability. Hence this can be seen as a social change that makes happy, a significant portion of the society. Dove did this through combined marketing methods and in efforts to help in elevating the pressure females, of all ages, backgrounds and ethnicity suffer from
  24. Social marketing is the promotion of brands, beliefs or behaviors that have the opportunity and ability to make a measurable and substantial difference in societies. Often thought of as “cause marketing” or “marketing for good”
  25. Coke found a way to promote its 0 calories options.Kraft is in the midst of a "Share a Little Comfort" campaign that offers to donate 1 million boxes of Kraft Macaroni & Cheese to needy families based on the number of messages people share via Facebook and Twitter. The added bonus of such programs, according to Marchese, is that brands can simply redirect some of their media budgets to cover the donations. It can turn out to be cheaper to offer donations in exchange for people-powered media than buying ad space for promotion. So far, more than 23,000 messages have been posted in response to Kraft's effort.Lifebuoy:www.youtube.com/helpachildreach5
  26. Marriot- Make a bed programColgate smiles campaignKraft- share a little comfortDanone- celebrate photos that celebrate the environmentGE (together with BBDO, SocialVibe and SpeedShape) has launched a new digital campaign to get you thinking about the environment with a photo project called Tag Your Green. GE hopes the project will inspire people to share new "green" ideas and connect with others by watching, commenting and uploading photos and videos on Flickr and YouTube.GE will make a donation every time a user uploads a photo of wind, water, or light to Flickr. For every wind photo, 4.5 kilowatt hours of wind energy will be donated to Practical Action; every water photo will trigger a donation of 480 gallons to charity: water; and every light photo will yield 175 hours of solar power to d.light Lighting Oecusse Project.GE's goal is to raise 4.8 million gallons of clean water, 1.7 million hours of solar power and 45,000 kW hours of wind energy.The project is part of GE's 5-year-old Ecomagination campaign, designed to demonstrate how GE is using its resources to help solve some of the world's biggest challenges. And together with Howcast, the project also includes the Ecomagination YouTube Video Challenge, for which 15 popular YouTubers (like iJustine, below) were invited collaborate with their fans and come up with videos that brings the notion of "green" into different locations, contexts and situations. The goal is to reach 10 million views and help charity: water bring clean and safe drinking water to developing nations. The campaign runs until mid-December and with 7 million views already, is well on its way to reaching that goal. This is one of growing number of social good campaigns designed to engage people online and help save the planet. Last week, Change.org held its annual Blog Action Day, where more than5,600 bloggers from all around the globe blogged to raise awareness about around clean drinking water.http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=kvQ_mqui2Bc#!http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=L1OBwaBLGqUhttp://www.ecomagination.com/tagyourgreen/Marriott used SocialVibe to create an engagement for their Make a Bed Program enabling users to make a virtual bed to generate a $2.00 donation to theAmerican Red Cross Disaster Relief
  27. SocialVibe: has enabled brands such as Microsoft, Visa, Kraft, Nestle, Sony, Microsoft, Apple, Toyota, Procter & Gamble, and Macy'sto earn social captial and to reach these highly motivated consumers. (put images of these companies and social vibe and talk of their tie up)Causes:Causes helps passionate people share ideas, find supporters, and make an impact. To get started on Causes, all you need is a desire to make things better. There are two ways you can use Causes:1. Create a campaign. Causes was designed to help drive significant impact - be it influencing a politician, spreading awareness for an important issue, or asking people to commit to taking a stand - through online activities that you create and share. Causes combines 9 different action types in one place, helping you to build a community of supporters who can back you up in a variety of ways.2. Support a campaign. There are plenty of worthy causes out there looking for like-minded supporters. Once you find one that speaks to you, you can immediately get involved. And, just as in the real world, your actions online have the power to influence others. Whether you take a pledge, sign a petition, or respond to a quiz, your actions can be shared on your Timeline.
  28. although the main goal must be generating more sales through enhancing brand image, the execution makes the company seem so true, sincere and even real about the causes they support!through combined marketing methods and in efforts supporting a cause, project concepts, Campaigns/Funds are initiated. tools are created, downloads and even guidebooks to start the conversationCombining an effective chain of online social media tools and channels 
  29. , particularly those in low-consideration categories like consumer goods, charities can become a cheap way to get access to the megaphones everyone has in social media. Take Colgate. It created a Facebook application called Smiles that languished for months, with just a few hundred people sharing it. Then it hooked up with SocialVibe to recast the tool to tap into the do-good vibe. The brand offered charitable donations each time users shared Smiles. The result: The widget was shared 500,000 times in five weeks.Kraft is in the midst of a "Share a Little Comfort" campaign that offers to donate 1 million boxes of Kraft Macaroni & Cheese to needy families based on the number of messages people share via Facebook and Twitter. The added bonus of such programs, according to Marchese, is that brands can simply redirect some of their media budgets to cover the donations. It can turn out to be cheaper to offer donations in exchange for people-powered media than buying ad space for promotion. So far, more than 23,000 messages have been posted in response to Kraft's effort.
