4. The Rules of Social Media Were Actually Written
Long Before the Internet
Malcolm Forbes
“To seduce almost anyone, ask for and listen to his opinion.”
From Dale Carnegie’s “How to Win Friends and Influence People”
• Be a good listener. Encourage others to talk about themselves
• Talk in terms of the other person’s interests
• Remember that a person’s name is to that person the sweetest
and most important sound in any language

Latinos.
35. Juega e Ilumina
• Users were able to generate minutes of
light by interacting with the Rich Media
online advertising banners that run in
Univision, AOL Latino, Starmedia &
SUM.
• The initial goal was to generate 30,000
minutes of light through all the different
activities. Users’ participation and
engagement with the different
components surpassed the
expectations, and in just one week we
achieved our minute goal.
• It was then increased to 100,000, which
allowed for a total of 142,602 minutes
to be donated.
36. Premios Juventud
State Farm sponsored the 2011 version of the popular Premios Juventud (PJ) organized by
Univision, which targets the Hispanic/Latino U.S. community. On this occasion, many users decided
to take the conversation to the virtual world, and State Farm Latino's Facebook (FB) page was the
platform of choice by many current fans.
A few "Thank you" notes from SFL's fans
38. Have we met?
• Sofía Vergara is the second celebrity chosen by
State Farm for its efforts to reach to the
Hispanic market in the U.S.
• The TV spot was exclusively offered to State
Farm Latino’s fans a few days before its TV
release.
• Today, Sofía Vergara has her own tab in State
Farm Latino, where fans can enjoy exclusive
“behind the scenes” content.
39. State Farm Latino
Learning from our experiences with our General Market Facebook pages,
we now know that:
• A brand must find su voz /their voice.
• That a US Hispanic SM strategy needs to have direction yet be nimble to
adapt to their audience’s immediate interests, opinions & preferences.
• Should make personal and emotional connections, in the language of
their choice with a goal of engagement and leads to enchantment.
