Social Networking Year over Year growth In general social networking is expanding at 25%
worldwide. The much larger existing base in North America makes such growth unlikely, but the sheer number of new registrants is astounding.

Facebook Geographic Distribution Facebook is growing all over the world. Whilst, the
majority of users (new and old) are in the US and Canada, the pace of growth in Europe and Asia are an indicator of just how popular Facebook has become.

Facebook’s Demographic is Shifting During the past year, the traditional demographic at Facebook
has shifted dramatically in the US. Traditionally, Facebook targeted 18-25 year-old users. Whilst that group is still the largest demographic, the fastest growing segments is young to middle professionals (25-44 y.o.)
The 18-25 year old demographic will become less than half the US market for the first time by the end of this year (currently 51%)
Worldwide, the effect is less dramatic in that growth in the youth sector (13-25) is still the strongest due to new market penetrations outside of the US and Canada
The core 18-44 year old demographic (advertisers core market) is now 80% of the overall population

Facebook’s Applications The growth of available Facebook applications is also
astounding Since inception at least 7,000 applications have been
built This number is uncertain as the latest data is from June 08 Some applications have been built, deployed and removed and
are not included in the 7k
Over 100 new applications are made available each day 80% of users have use at least one application built on
the Facebook platform …but 87% of the traffic goes to 2% of the applications

Facebook’s Advertising Facebook has gone heavy into advertising sales The effectiveness of these ads is questionable:
Very low click-through rates Poor targeting
Poor historic performance is at least in part due to their traditional demographic (which is changing)
The targeting system is largely self-service and allows users to make their own mistakes
…but questions remain in their audience tagging as it applies to advertising

Targeting the Right Audience
Self-service “Choose Audience” tools can segment by:– 30 Countries,
States, Cities– Sex and Age Range– Keywords in Profile– Educational Status– Workplace Networks– Political Views– Relationship States
But there appear to be glitches in the system:– Ads for any goods or service including applications can
somehow be misdirected

Some of this is in Flux
In response to these issues, Facebook is about to a new advertising program called “Engagement Advertising” which they announced in August, 2008
The goal of the program is take advantage of the social aspects of the system in promoting ads
Relies principally on word of mouth promotions: Leaving comments which the user’s network can read “Gifting” the ad to your network in order to receive some
benefit “Becoming a fan” of the underlying product or application
The goal is to fulfill the promise of the social network to their advertisers

Trends Facebook has long been a source of recruiting recent college
grads Ernst and Young were there in 2006 and has at least three different
locations running simultaneously Now, recruiters are targeting mid-career professionals as the
demographics have changed Individuals are taking advantage of the open network and its
tools to get themselves recruited The job boards are integrating their offerings with Facebook Companies that recruit similar individuals (e.g., “I’d hire all of
the Petroleum engineers I could find”) are creating and targeting networks of like-minded, like-educated members
Companies are using the system to keep in touch with former employees or prospective employees even as they avoid transactional “sales” to these potential candidates

The Killer Idea What’s a great idea? Something that…
Harnesses the viral aspect of Facebook – wider candidate base Gets you a deeper knowledge of the candidate Generates a new stream of revenue
It also has to be compelling in its content and offering to attract users
It should be guided by strategy (e.g., overall operational strategies and goals)
“If you build it, they will come” doesn’t work. It needs to be effectively targeted and marketed.
Think of your first web sites (e.g., “brochure-ware”). Don’t make the same mistakes that firms did in the 90s – recognize that Facebook is an environment, not just a location

Defining Goals Set your goals
Verbalize your goal• Can you explain it in a simple sentence?
Write down your goals. • Do they overlap?
• Are there dependencies?
• Are they consistent with company core values?
• Sketch out wireframes for reference, expect many edits Prioritize, Strategize
• If you had to choose, which would be the first goal to accomplish?
• Gain a large following, then herd them towards other goals

FB App Lessons Learned1. Follow Facebook App Guiding Principles
2. Mirror the Facebook culture and conventions
3. Pay attention to user experience design, including performance issues (e.g. too many roundtrips, time outs)
4. Don’t build the whole app in one shot, start small and add new functionality weekly
5. Request FB app directory listing asap – can take weeks/months
6. Leverage built-in tools to promote your applications
7. Be vigilant about embedding measurements into functionality
8. Tweak the app weekly based on what’s working and what’s not
9. Take emotion out of your analysis
10.Focus on getting quality users not quantity – expect this to be an ongoing effort and budget for it
