    From USC’s School for the Digital Future.Points to the real need for “GETTING AT HOW THE INSIDE FEELS.”ON A LIMB: Interpersonal Communications now happen online as often as they do offline.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.

    An organization we trust.Aiming to drive some real change in how marketers engage.“Putting Listening to Work.”Report with lots of good information.Similar to our White Paper. “9 Best Practices for Listening and Engaging in Social Networks.”Replace brand and consumer with husband and wife. Sea change of communication has affected the playing field.

    It’s something that we’ve always done as marketers, be it through PollingMedia MonitoringQuantitative Surveys of interest.Focus groups and qual.

    You can search or you can have the search find you.Opportunities abound for tools to deliver you this information and aim to make sense of it.What about the 99% of the Internet that you don’t care about?How do you filter to know that its coming from a highly impactful individual? A big megaphone.Most importantly, how do I know what’s really INSIDE this person or persons to make sense of what I hear?

    The enhanced “ear to the ground” services provide benefit to turn the cacophony down a little.Makes sense to move from simply a Knowledge Center focused on Reputation Management and into a place to hear what THEY ARE SAYING… and not just what YOU WANT TO HEAR.

    In the same way that Listening tools BEGIN to put a face on reputation management….Customer communities put a more clear face on what is happening on the web into perspective.

    Many other examples of Large Scale Communities built specifically for ResultsCreated a community of 25,000 users, where they could measure relationships and participation among members via Ripple Analytics.Developed an understanding of Community Leaders, their trial of products, influence upon others, and specifically what was said about the product when it was recommended.

    Here is where you can really generate insight into what they feel on the inside.

    Private Research Group used to identify advocates and gather opinions about a public brand communityAdvocates used to seed the public community and communicate directly with the brand, providing honest feedbackCommunity fosters participation and ownership of the brand, creating trust

    Discussion — Create posts and conversations to communicate with members, or allow members to create their own conversations.Media — Use photos and video to engage members, gauge response to stimuli, or provide direction. Use photos to expose and test packaging, messages, storyboards or more.Calendar — Plan ongoing activities with the group or synch with their personal calendars.Private Messaging — Quickly and easily engage members in deeper probes on a one-to-one basis.The “Observation Room” — A separate, private group for the research team to share their opinions and insights, suggest probes for the researcher, and further enhance the team’s learning.

    Tremendous data can be generated Tools for analysis are critical to successFiltering conversations is not convenient, it’s required.Cross reference with rich social data

    Here’s one small example… from a conversation that we had with a major beverage manufacturer earlier this week.
