The Disruptors Social Media
Communicating, connecting, collaborating, collecting, customizing, and conversating.
Wikipedia defines Social media as an umbrella term that defines the various activities that integrate technology, social interaction, and the construction of words, pictures, videos and audio . This interaction, and the manner in which information is presented, depends on the varied perspectives and "building" of shared meaning among communities, as people share their stories, and understandings . In the context of Internet marketing, Social Media refers to a collective group of web properties that are driven by users. For example, blogs, discussion boards, vlogs, video sharing sites, social networks, list servs, user groups, and forums.

The Universal Truths Marketing Management Crisis
In many organizations, the corporate marketing function has lost budget, head count, influence, and confidence resulting in strategic consequences that run deeper than many managers may realize.” Source: MIT Sloan Management Review
Average CMO Tenure is less than 18 months for the Fortune 500.

The Universal Truths New Rules of Engagement Marketing has shifted from a paradigm of dictation to dialogue . Technology is the enabler for advancing the dialogue to facilitate a deeper awareness of the brand. “ Consumer generated media, customer conversations, and the notion of on-demand consumers are redefining how advertisers connect their brands to consumers”. “ With consumers spending less attention at any one touch point , successful marketers will need to be at every touch point.”

Markets Are Conversations! Excerpt: Cluetrain Manifesto "Markets are nothing more than conversations. See these magazines? They’re a form of market conversation. We should already be in their stories. We are key to the subject, but we’re missing in action after working in secret for years. Our only hope is to talk. Starting now."

Social Connectivity Social Networking driving Hyper connectivity
The portability across social platforms will allow users to go beyond taking their identities, but their friends too across the digital landscape.
Facebook Connect, Windows Live, FriendFeed are attempting to map the things that happen in real life.
Social Networking will move beyond a single destination experience and become engrained in the everyday Internet experience.
Consumers will talk to each other across the web, hence discussions around brands are no longer siloed to a single platform or network but are spreading to a wider swath of sites in one communication stream .

Social Networking Connectivity by way of Venus

Women style of communication is more relationship driven; less transactional

Future of Brand Marketing

Brands need not interrupt their customer’s natural inclinations and habits, but rather build contextual relevance around them to enhance their experiences.
The idea is that the brand is an enabler of those very customer experiences that synchronize with the brand’s core identity.
Brand marketing is shifting from being “ seen ” to being “ shared. ”
Next paradigm is Marketing as a Service ; meaning the brand must now offer some sort of utility.

“ Brands no longer look for ad campaigns…they are in search of a platform around which everything related to the brand can live.”

People are building brands , not advertisers, not brand stewards, and not ad agencies.
