    Twitter Basics

    Quick Glossary (details below)

    Tweet one message that consists of 140 characters or less

    Handle your twitter name is called your handle for example: is @Reuters the

    @ must always come before Reuters when forming a tweet Profile pic or Avatar the picture you have as your profile picture on Twitter

    @ Reply a public message sent to one or more people I just sent you an @reply is commonly said

    DM Direct Message, these messages can only be sent to people who followyou and they are private messages

    Stream your stream is the feed of all the tweets from your followers (incoming)

    Timeline your timeline is the feed of all of the tweets you send out (outgoing)

    ReTweet or RT when you tweet someone elses tweet again by hitting retweet

    #Hashtag when you see something like #Chicago or #TravelTuesday

    Profile Page the page that lives on the web, http://wwww.twitter.com/Reuters iswhere their profile page lives, it has their bio, URL, location and displays theirtimeline, or tweets

    What is Twitter? What does Twitter do?

    Twitter is a rapid and concise communication tool used for interaction versus oneway broadcast

    Twitter is a community, and within the Twitter community, there are hundreds ofmicro-communities

    Many think of Twitter as a constant stream of status updates, such as, I am goingto the bathroom. There is nothing wrong with looking at Twitter as updates, and

    use Twitter in that way, but you are better suited thinking of a tweet acommunication method and Twitter itself a two-way broadcast system.

    What is meant by two-way broadcast system is, one listens to the broadcasts(tweets) of the people they follow, engage with followers and also broadcast theirown messaging.

    A tweet can be a way to broadcast teasers in 140 characters to your blog, yourURL, a promotion, or whatever else one may be trying to communicate.

    There are various opinions to why some prefer Twitter over Facebook, onepopular opinion is that people are on Facebook to stay connected with peoplethey already know, whereas people are on Twitter to find new information andnew people with whom they would like to connect.

    Twitter is a great way to listen or monitor; individuals and brands can watchwhat others are doing online, see what is being said about their brand and eventwatch their competitors.

    Twitter Basics

    Who are the people on Twitter?

    They skew older and wealthier than one would imagine

    Here are some stats taken from Quantcast http://www.quantcast.com/twitter

    o 55 % Female - 45% Maleo 69% Caucasiano 47% Have Childreno 30% Earn over 100K - 28% Earn 60 to 100K

    Why are people on Twitter? What do they look for?

    People are on Twitter to learn, to be entertained, to meet new people, to networkfor business, for lead generation, to share their content and to promotethemselves

    People on Twitter generally like to be in the know whether they are actively

    participating or just listening They look for others with similar lifestyles and interests business, food, running,

    fashion, etc.

    They see Twitter as a place where they can find unknown possibilities, in arelatively quick time, through the networks they can build and with individualsfrom all over the world

    They see Twitter as a an open conversation

    They look to leverage information

    They look to make friends

    They look for Business opportunities

    They want real time news and real time updates

    They look for information and deals from brands they like and they like to learn

    about new products and brands from their networks They like to see the humanization of a brand, brands are better suited when

    there is a distinct voice behind the handle to which consumers can relate

    Bottom line people on Twitter want:o Information or news and they want it fasto To connect with new people (or brands) with whom they can build

    personal and business relationships

    What is a Stream and Timeline

    Twitterstream is what each individual sees from the people they are following,otherwise known as home feed

    Timeline is what you are saying on Twitter. If I were to look athttp://www.twitter.com/leyla_a what you see is @leyla_as timeline.

    Twitter Basics

    How do you form a Tweet?

    A space = 1 character

    Tweets cannot be longer than 140 characters including your Twitter handle but

    your aim should be to keep your tweets at 120 characters. 120 character tweets will leave room for Retweets (or RT) by others. I will

    explain RTs later below.

    If you want to speak to someone directly, but not privately, you would form thetweet like: @leyla_a what are you doing today.

    When you put the persons handle in the first position of the tweet ONLY thepeople who follow both you and that person will see the tweet in their stream.

    Anytime you send an @ reply everyone has the ability to see the tweet bynavigating directly to your timeline or profile page but they will not see it in theirstream unless they follow both the people in the conversation.

    What does the @ symbol do?

    The @ symbol is how you address people, talk to people, and help ensure theysee your tweet. The @ symbol must be used before every Twitter name in orderfor that person to see the Tweet. Do not assume they will just see a mention intheir stream.

    What is a Retweet (http://support.twitter.com/entries/77606-what-is-retweet-rt)

    A retweet is when you simply re-post exactly what someone else said in their

    tweet. A retweet is a compliment, you want retweets, it means that others agree with, or

    want to share, your information

    If youre using the web version of Twitter, there is a button that you hit Retweetand it will regurgitate exactly what that person said in your timeline for all yourfollowers to read

    When you use the Twitter version of the RT, it will look like someone else istweeting in your followers stream, they will see the other persons avatar/profilepic, but there will be a symbol attached to their profile pic that

    What is a Twitter list?

    Lists allow you to create groups where you can filter or file your followers.

    Lists are limited to 500 people / handles.

    You dont have to be following someone in order to list them, you can listsomeone and not follow them.

    Lists make it easier to sort though tweets when youre following 1000s of people.

    A suggestion would be to list someone as soon as you find, or follow, them soyou dont have to go back to do this once you have 100s or 1000s of people youfollow.

    What is a #Hashtag, what does it do?

    You will see the hashtag used a lot and at first this will confuse you. Hashtagsare a tagging system to aggregate topics. Hashtags are a way to sort tweets or

    categorize them and search tweets more easily. Or, a #hashtag can specificallybe used for complete non-sense.

    There are several ways people use the #hashtago To create a subject matter that is more easily searchableo If youre speaking about something to specific to #Chicago you may want

    to use that a hashtag in case people are specifically searching forChicago

    o If you have an event, you want to create a #hashtag that is specific to thatevent so that people can follow a stream for that #hashtag, i.e.,#BlogWorld

    o If you have a particular discussion or chat that you want people tofollow, you must create a #hashtag for people to follow, i.e., #journchat,

    #blogchat, #luxchat those are all online chats that people follow atspecified days/times

    o To express an obvious or more complex thought, i.e., #Fail #FailWhaleare some you may see on Twitter

    o Comedy or self-use people will create their own #hashtags to create ahumorous effect, i.e., #hashtagmillionaire

    How do people read Twitter?

    Most people use a third party device to manipulate Twitter

    Some other platforms include:

    o Hootsuite the most comprehensive web based platform that has a freeand a paid option. Hootsuite tracks statistics from your tweets and allowsyou to integrate analytics.

    o Tweetdeck recently purchased by Twitter.

    What is Twitter Search?

    What differentiates Twitter search from Google or other search engines is thatTwitter searches in real time and by order of authority. Your tweets are more

    powerful if theyve been Re-tweeted, they may rise to the top of the Twittersearch if they are more popular determined by re-tweet.

    Twitter advanced search can be extremely powerful especially when yourelooking for tweets that are location based. This should be used by smallbusinesses more often but it just is not utilized effectively by most.

    How do I get followers?

    o Follow people and they will follow you back maybeo Create lists and add people who may follow you to them, people often

    look to see who has listed them

    o Add yourself to Wefollow.como Stay consistent, people want to see you tweet daily, multiple times daily, if

    they see that you have gone away, they will likely unfollow you (stopfollowing you)

    o Have a personality behind the handle, dont just plug in tweets and goaway

    o Engage with others - @ reply peopleo Have your twitter handle on your business cards and other places you

    leave your digital signature (your blog, website, when you leave blogcomments)

    What is a shortened URL?

    You will see lots of tweets with links that are formulated from shortened URLsthere are various services but the most popular ones are: Bit.ly Ow.ly or Ht.ly

    Twitter has since created their own shortened URL t.cohttp://support.twitter.com/entries/109623

    The point is to save space because you only have 140 characters

    You can also create your own vanity URL but dont this until youveinvestigated further, you may want to use the Ow.ly or the Ht.ly for trackingpurposes.

    FAQs

    Q: Do more followers mean more action?

    A: No. Youre better off having the right followers. If youre topical, you want peoplewho are interested in your topic following you. That will get you the most bang so dontwaste your time with auto-generated follow bots, etc.

    Q: My friends cannot see all my @ replies in their stream, why?

    A: Your friends can only see the @ replies in their stream that you send to them OR the@ replies you send to people they also follow. If theyre not following the person you aretweeting with, those tweets will not appear in their stream BUT they will appear in YOURtimeline. If your friends want to read all of your tweets, they have to go look at yourprofile (where your timeline lives publicly).

    Q: What is a #failwhale?

    A: Twitters icon for an outage is a graphic of a whale. When something goes wrong,people on Twitter say #fail there came the term #failwhale.

    Q: Sometimes I see via followed by a persons handle what does that mean?

    A: When you Re-tweet someone, you need to take care and RT them exactly as thetweet appeared in their original tweet. If this cannot happen, you use via. If you needto shorten or change a tweet you write the tweet and end it with via @leyla_a so that theauthor of the tweet is still credited.

    Q: Is it OK for me to just jump into someone elses conversation?

    A: Yes, if someone is speaking publicly, it is fair game to jump in and say something.This doesnt mean they will @ reply back to you, it just means you are not breaking anyrules. Of course, you cannot always assume that people wont get insulted, but Twitter isan open conversation and if they want the conversation to remain private, they shouldsend DMs.

    Q: Is there a correct way to add information to my timeline?

    A: There is no right or wrong way to tweet but there are some people who believe thatthere are ways to achieve more success on Twitter. A nice ration would be 1/3 sharinglinks, 1/3 commentary and 1/3 conversation.

    Standard Operating Procedure for Social Media Page 3 of 9

    Employees personal, non-company-owned social media channels cannot be affiliated with

    that employees Catamaran email address. For example, if an employee has a personal

    Twitter handle, the email address associated with that account must be a personal email

    address (ex. [email protected]).Using a company email address in association with a

    personal Facebook, Twitter or any other social media profile is prohibited.

    These Procedures strictly prohibit personal social media statements about Catamaran

    products or services, including those in development, which make or imply product benefits,

    efficacy, refer to clinical trials, or make safety claims or otherwise implicate any regulatory

    or compliance rule, law or policy.

    B. Standard Operating Procedure for Social Media Commenting on Catamaran-Owned Sites1. PurposeThis procedure sets forth the requirements for allowing comments on Catamaran social

    media sites. The purpose of this procedure is to provide transparency to site users regarding

    Catamarans criteria for declining to publishing or removing comments, as well to set theproper expectations regarding the responses a user may receive in relation to said

    comments.

    2. DefinitionsSocial Media Property: For the purposes of this section B, Social Media Property is a

    website or page within a third-party site (i.e., Twitter, YouTube, LinkedIn or Facebook) that

    is owned or controlled by Catamaran. Social media properties can come in a number of

    different forms. Examples of social media platforms to which these Procedures apply include

    blogs, microblogs, social networks, and wikis.

    3. Required Elements on a Catamaran Social Media Property Where Commenting isEnabled

    Regulations governing the marketing practices of pharmacy benefit management and

    Catamarans ethical policies may operate to limit what is permitted or appropriate to be

    posted on Social Media Property. It is Catamarans goal to provide site users with

    transparency as to whether specific comments are allowed on the Social Media Property.

    Where commenting is allowed on Social Media Property, it is Catamaran s goal to provide

    formal guidance as to what constitutes an appropriate comment and the appropriate means

    of communication for reporting adverse events or contacting the company.

    If comments are enabled on Social Media Property, Catamaran will provide the site visitor

    with an understanding of why Catamaran may remove posted comments. If the Social

    Media Property is set up to enable comments to be previewed before posting, Catamaran

    will provide the site visitor with an understanding of why Catamaran may or may not post a

    comment, as well as the expected length of time it will take Catamaran to review a

    comment before it may be posted.

    Standard Operating Procedure for Social Media Page 4 of 9

    The guidelines set forth in Attachment A must be included on all Social Media Properties

    where commenting is enabled. The guidelines must be visible or accessible from the main

    page of any Social Media Property. Furthermore, Attachments B and C of these Procedures

    contain template responses that should be used when acknowledging the receipt of a users

    comment (when the Social Media is set up to enable comment review before posting) and

    removing or declining to post a users comment, respectively.

    3.1Comment AcknowledgmentIf comments are posted directly to the Social Media Property without prior Catamaran

    review and a response to a post is warranted, a response should be posted by a

    Catamaran Representative to the Social Media Property within 48 hours. It is at the

    discretion ofCatamarans social media manager whether or not to respond to or

    remove a particular comment. If the social media manager decides that a response or

    removal is warranted, the response or removal must be done in accordance with this

    procedure. If the user provides contact information via the comment, then notification

    of the comments removal should be provided to the user within 48 hours. AttachmentC contains a template communication that should be sent to a user whose comment has

    been removed. If the user does not provide a means of contact, then notification to the

    user is not required.

    If a Social Media Property is set up to enable Catamaran to review all comments

    received prior to posting in order to determine whether or not the comments meet

    Catamarans site guidelines, as well as all applicable laws and regulations, an

    acknowledgement of the receipt of the comment must be provided to the site visitor.

    Attachment B contains a template communication to be used for such

    acknowledgments. This document should be sent using the applicable social networks

    response tools, or if the social network does not have an existing automated responsemechanism, the acknowledgment should be sent to the user via email within 24 hours

    of receiving the post. An acknowledgement is not required if the user does not provide a

    means of contact.

    Catamarans marketing department will assess any comments held for review within 2

    business days. If a comment is rejected, the user will receive a notification as outlined in

    Attachment C.

    3.2.Comment ResponseCatamaran should not respond to inquiries or comments regarding the use of another

    companys product, and such comments should either be prohibited or removed from

    the Social Media Property.

    If comments are allowed to be posted to a Social Media Property without prior review

    and a public comment includes an unsolicited request for off-label information,

    Catamarans public response should be limited to providing Catamarans contact

    information and should not include any off-label information. Furthermore, the

    response published by Catamaran should convey that the question pertains to an

  • 7/30/2019 Twitter Documents March 2013 v1

    15/20

    Standard Operating Procedure for Social Media Page 5 of 9

    unapproved or uncleared use of the product and state that individuals can contact the

    regulatory department with the specific unsolicited request to obtain more information.

    The response should provide specific contact information for the regulatory department

    so that individuals can follow up independently with the department to obtain specific

    information about the off-label use of the product through a non-public, one-on-one

    communication. In addition to contact and disclosure information, a public response

    should also include a mechanism for providing readily accessible current FDA-required

    labeling, if any, for the product.

    Any such response to an unsolicited off-label must be drafted and approved by a

    regulatory representative, rather than a member ofCatamarans

    marketing/communications staff. Alternately, the post may be removed from the Social

    Media Property.

    C. Sponsorship and ManagementSusan Fleming, Catamarans Vice President, Marketing, sponsored the adoption of thisProcedure and is responsible for communicating and providing appropriate guidance on its

    provisions. Susan Fleming is also responsible for periodic review and, where appropriate,

    revision of this Procedure.
