    Notes on slide 1

    Things are changing very quickly. You need to adapt.Time spent on social network and blogging sites growing 3x faster than other activities. Increased by 18% in a year. 45 billion minutes total. One minute of every 11 spent online is spent in social networks, up from 1 in 15 in 2007. IDC survey (research firm): over half us consumers with internet are on social networking sites, but only 57% of those clicked on an ad in the last year, whereas 79% of overall web users did. IDC survey (research firm): over half us consumers with internet are on social networking sites, but only 57% of those clicked on an ad in the last year, whereas 79% of overall web users did. Nielsen ReportMember communities have overtaken personal email to become the world’s fourth most popular online use, after search, portals, and PC software apps. Accounts for 10% of all internet time. 67% of users do it, as compared with 61% last year.  Time spent on social network and blogging sites growing 3x faster than other activities. Increased by 18% in a year. 45 billion minutes total. One minute of every 11 spent online is spent in social networks, up from 1 in 15 in 2007.  Shift in ages to older users. Covers all demographic groups. 

    More than half of online community members (54 percent) log into their community at least once a day, and 71 percent of members said their community is very important or extremely important to them. Fifty-six percent of members reported meeting their online counterparts in person. 55 percent -- say they feel as strongly about their online communities as they do about their real-world communities.

    According to eMarketer….More than 25% of Millenials (14-25) discuss social networks daily or near dailyMillenials and Generation X (14-42) talked 3x more than their Boomer and Mature counterparts about topics such as social networks, websites, newspapers, books, ads, magazines, video games and virtual worlds.

    9 years ago:Yahoo was still king.No Facebook. No myspace. Not even Blogs.Yankees were about to win the World Series for the 3rd time.In a minute back to the last 9 months.-----

    No debate, It started with Hotwired.Cutting edge use of the technology was a flat graphic, and a creative message.Volvo… safe in a way… but in hindsight prescient. Click the ad, you fill out a questionnaire that was MAILED to you. The goal? Establish a relationship.This was about creating connections.

    And the cutting edge for creating connections meant you had to send them to your web site… which was essentially a brochure…

    Fast forward to 2001. A lot of money was made and lost in between there… but the big advertising innovation that came to emerge was how to make those ads more creative than they were.For the user… it meant more interesting stuff… more creative.For the marketer… it meant a lot more: Measurement, analytics on more than just the click.=========

    Indeed you can also connect THAT to your web site.

    Fast forward to today….What about the past 9 years, and specifically, the past nine months that have been so ripe with change.

    It’s driven by conversations on the web.The Web is no longer an information medium… it’s a communication medium.Information flows up and down with users… and more importantly… side to side between users.Users are more comfortable with that and they are looking for marketers to participate… so GO AHEAD… participate.

    This is Wendy Clark.SVP, Integrated Marketing and Communications Capabilities, Coca-Cola.And last week she said this (among other things) during a speech to about 300 marketers in Chicago.There is no way to shut down the conversations that are happening. When you realize that, you can begin to leverage those conversations by participating in them.Now and in the future, Ad Managers will be more like Content Managers. They will focus on finding and connecting with those who are creating many of these messages. Some will be advocates and some will not. Regardless, they are important part of shaping YOUR message.You must go into the consumer’s backyard and participate with them.Curate content… co-create with users… engage and interact with all that is there.

    Developing social strategy is about doing many, if not all of these things.

    You can in inject into today’s standard ad unit…It’s not the ad unit that is new… its what you put there.Quickly create a starting point for a social positioning. We can empower your ability to take your positioning – SOCIALLY – anywhere on the Web with ads that are not pushing messages at people – they’re inviting people into the conversation.

    This is what you have. As a marketer, you still need to communicate your positioning, and you most likely have a web site and a presence. It’s what you would have built 9 years ago, or even 9 months ago… but is likely not going to satisfy your needs in the new social world.What you build for the social web is something different.

    Think of this new community site in the same way that you would have considered micro-sites. HOWEVER, this solution is Social --- it will allow you to engageScalable – can evolve again and again over timeConnected – it can be syndicated across the web.It’s an asset. The investment you make in getting it up and running will be an investment in relationships with people who can return again and again – not just to engage with you, but with people who share passion for your brand – or more likely the benefits your brand brings to their life.

    And you don’t want this community to sit only in your backyard – you want it to sit in theirs. You want the ability to syndicate that conversation to other sites where they’ll find these people. You’ll want it to be available to them as easily as possible.

    Many brand’s social strategy starts and ends with Facebook.With 300 million users, Facebook is undeniably a place that marketers should include in their experience, but not at the center.You’ll want it to include Facebook Connect and other features that connect you to these people and connect them to each other around your brand.

    The fully integrated social position can be executed almost anywhere by executing social ads via Ripple6/Pointroll.

      We define rich media as the use (or combination) of video, voice, data, and other technologies…to create an otherwise unattainable user experience… It adds the dimensions of context and personalization to provide relevance that cannot be matched by other communications or broadcast media… we expect that rich media will significantly add to the user experience and, therefore, will be the Internet's next "killer app."
