Why is everyone talking about Social Media

Traditional Marketing Vs Social Engagement

The Opportunity

• Organisations can engage with customers before and after the sales process

• Support customers online at every stage of the pre and post sale process

• Provide targeted information to customers, which is impossible through broadcast

• Customers can talk about you (Good and Bad)• Customers can support each other online (and

are already doing so)

Key Social Media Platforms

Social Media Landscape

What is Social Media?

Platforms that allow the sharing of content with dialogue and feedback channels deeply

embedded in them

Key Platforms for Customers

• Social/Professional Networks– Facebook & LinkedIn

• Blogging/Micro-Blogging/Lifestreaming– Wordpress, Twitter

• Video, Audio & Photo sharing– YouTube, Vimeo– Flickr, TwitPic, Instagram

• Mobile– Foursquare, Facebook, Twitter, Yelp

It has never been easier for organisations to communicate with audiences online

But they have to use engaging content

How do You interact with Social Media

Be Social – Interact with People & Solicit Feedback and Responses

Organisations need to Focus on behavioural aspects of how and why people use these

channels

How to Influence & Participate in these

Why does everyone talk about Facebook?

Because its absolutely HUGE

800 Million people

And people spend vasts amount of time there (more than any other site in the world)

And People want to ‘LIKE’ Businesses there – but WHY?

Twitter

Twitter

• Microblogging platform• Can be incredibly powerful tool for business owners and

marketers• BUT takes time, effort and persistence to build up a

community• It is much more chatty (Dialogue) than Facebook• Businesses need to think about all their constituencies

when using Twitter• Not just for customers – partners, media, pr etc…• Great for thought leadership

What is it?

• Tweet = 140 Characters• @someone – talk to someone (everyone sees it)• DM Someone – prviate message - only the

people FROM and TO see it• RT – retweet – a lot of people retweet content

that others have writter•

It’s a Different Medium Than Facebook – and it can be difficult

Must know what you want to achieve through it and who you will be talking to

Find someone with a function, who has something interesting to say – and can say it

well

And get them to engage at a granular level

Build up community overtime
