    Eric Weaver:

    'One of my favorite sites: Profilactic. This can aggregate all of your online activity in one place. What if this became automated? I can subscribe to all the blog, podcast, post, etc., activity of a person. What are the ramifications? Think about that.'

    Eric Weaver:

    'Also new on the scene are Reputation Aggregators. You may or may not have your reputation scored automatically. What if someone else claims your profile and destroys your reputation? Be aware that these sites are here and that you can and should claim your ’reputation.’

    Personally I believe that a lot more business will be done with companies that have transparent actions, histories and reputations. Might as well dig in now!'

    Eric Weaver:

    'Here we have one of our attendees: Don Low of Horton Lantz and Low. This is a page that was automatically culled from various sources on the web, and has been presented as a biography and record of Don Low. What if the engine grabs articles that AREN’T about Don? What if they’re about a porn star named Don Low? These profiles are being aggregated now and you need to be aware of this. So do your clients.'

    Eric Weaver:

    'Some interesting future trends that I think are rearing their heads now are Identity, Reputation and Activity Aggregation. In other words...how do you claim information online that is truly about you? How do you manage your reputation when anyone can say anything about you? And how is that impacted by the fact that more and more of your behavior is being archived, found and can be subscribed to?'

    Eric Weaver:

    'Regarding internal alignment: provide your clients with lots of research. Show them hardcore business cases, and how the low spend got high buzz.

    And this one is important: many brands don’t have a solid brand strategy worked out. If you don’t have an initial brand strategy and messaging platform worked out before you go to market, how do you know when consumers are running your brand off the rails? You need something to present to the market so they can react, rather than being a non-entity.

    And whatever you do, don’t pander to consumers. They can smell it a mile away.'

    Eric Weaver:

    'This is one of my favorites. Ireland’s budget airline, Ryanair, decided it would be a good idea to drown their passengers in ads, just like on the bus. What was funniest about this was the press release, which talked about how this was ’exciting' and created an ’uncluttered, relaxed and comfortable environment.’ THAT IS SOME DAMNED TASTY KOOLAID! As they say in Ireland, ’Jaysus.’'

    Eric Weaver:

    'I wanted to share some examples of ’addled advocacy.’ An AMA seminar I sat in focused on how to get your email marketing programs past filters that customers deployed to prevent email marketing efforts, insisting that you could build relationships by bypassing filters. (!)

    A huge fast-food chain worked with TiVo to turn off fast-forwarding during commercials. In other words, the CUSTOMER has purchased tools to circumvent INTRUSION - and you’re locked in a battle with them. It’s like shouting in someone’s face and when they cover their ears, to pull their hands away. Outrageous.

    And there’s the mega beer brand (crappy beer by the way) that apparently used their relationship with an affiliated credit bureau to track down opt-outs and RE-OPT THEM IN.

    Emmm..are we building those relationships yet?'

    Eric Weaver:

    'Regarding dialogue: clients MUST be where the prospects are. Make sure your efforts can be found through search.

    Dedicate resources...hire junior staffers to monitor and engage using strict ground rules.

    Help clients predetermine their 'action boundaries': when do they speak out publicly? When do they remain silent? What if they get a particularly nasty troll - how do they handle them? Strict ground rules.

    There are tons of automated tools out there to help you listen to the blogosphere. Coach your client on how to use them.

    Realize that by engaging in social media, you’re engaging with future customers, not just current ones.'

  • + Weave Eric Weaver 2 years ago
    Eric Weaver:

    'Five ways to empower your client: first of all, be their Tony Robbins. Encourage them to try. Show them the low cost of experimentation.

    Next, help them reposition themselves within their firm. Marketing has taken a beating over the last few years. We often have the largest programs budgets, yet demonstrating clear ROI is often challenging. Help the management team see Marketing as the primary bridge builder between company and customer.

    These channels are AWESOME for feedback and research. Help keep them from trying social media JUST to validate existing strategies...get them to see it as a customer petri dish.

    And help them 'get' that monologue is dead. They must dedicate resources to dialogue: community managers, outreach marketers, cause marketing efforts. Make sure they’re listening and not just paying lip service.

    Finally, help them create internal alignment by creating education programs about these channels that they can champion internally. Help them look like a rock star.'

    Eric Weaver:

    'You’ll hear a lot of questions from curious clients. Should we be on MySpace? In Second Life? I’ve heard about Facebook strategies...do we need one?'

  34. BRIDGEBUILDERS. NING.COM NEW SOCIAL NETWORK FOR SEATTLE-AREA MARKETING AND ADVERTISING PROS HOPING TO MAKE IT A PLACE WHERE WE’LL SHARE TIPS, GIGS AND INTERESTS JOINT EFFORT BY PUGET SOUND AMA AND SEATTLE AD CLUB
  35. MORE THOUGHTS ON WHERE IT’S ALL GOING Monologue is dying or dead “In the 20th Century, we did monologue marketing. We did most – if not all – of the talking. And we expected the consumer to listen. Now, we’ve moved to a dialogue. Consumers want to be heard. In fact, they will not tolerate not being heard.” - John Hayes, CMO, American Express NOT HIS UNIVERSE ANYMORE: DIRECT MARKETER LESTER WUNDERMAN
  36. “We are moving from technology push to consumer pull… from push marketing to co- creation… from idea manufacturing to consumer experiences.” - Keith Pardy, SVP Strategic Marketing, Nokia
  37. “Agencies are evolving too slowly. They are holding onto the past and trying to rationalize it.” - Jerri DeVard, SVP Marketing, Citigroup AMC’S “MAD MEN” “Agencies need to get more integrated, collapse structures and go digital.” - Jim Stengel, GMO, P&G
  38. MORE THOUGHTS ON WHERE IT’S ALL GOING Why the big shift? The 50-year-old traffic light is out at the intersection of Culture, Media and Commerce Newer audiences less about polish, more about honesty Traditional limitations of choice (brand/product choices, buying venues, product/pricing data) are gone Balance of power shifting away from marketers Control the brand? As if. Customers purchasing based on testimony of other customers, less because of us And they’re reinterpreting and representing your brand
  39. PODCASTERS - DISCUSSING YOUR BRAND? Massive shifts Their voices can be as loud as our own JUSTINE EZARIK AT&T DEBACLE VIRAL CHEVY TAHOE/APPRENTICE CGM EXPRIMENT
  40. Why so loud? Because 1) the Net is the first place people look, and 2) search lurrrves conversations!
  41. Massive shifts SOBERING: The more consumers can find open, honest dialogue about a brand, the more your finely-honed message can sound self-serving, inauthentic, and untrustworthy. Ouch.
  42. What does this mean for clients? As prospective customers become ever more distracted and interrupted, intrusive methods are tuned out Gains are incremental at best Security – everyone’s – is often about proving sustainable value to the org Corporate risk aversion runs high You tend with what you know works So, new media: should we invest? Where? Who knows where this is all going?
  43. Everyone wins AGENCIES can show innovation, forward thinking, demo new reach vehicles CLIENTS can more fully engage markets, have customers become advocates, extend brand without increasing marketing spend
  44. SNIFFING AROUND Client management teams will ask… Should we “be” on MySpace? Should we open a presence on Second Life? Do we need a “Facebook strategy?” What’s this “conversational marketing” stuff?
  45. MOTIVATING THEM TO TRY Five ways to empower your client Be their Tony Robbins Help marketers reposition themselves as the primary BRIDGE BUILDER between company and customer the CUSTOMER INSIGHTS CHAMPION Help them use new channels to truly understand customer desires, not to merely validate their existing strategy Help them shift from monologue to dialogue Help them create internal alignment
  46. EMPOWER YOUR CLIENT Shifting monologue to dialogue Know the available channels (they change quarterly) As Pull becomes more interesting, be where your prospects look for you - SEO important Dedicate resources to community management Predetermine your action boundaries Listen via automated tools Engage with NEXT customers, not just current ones
  47. ADDLED ADVOCACY DEPARTMENT “Block my message? Oh no you don’t.” AMA Seminar: “Learn how to get past the filters your customers have deployed.” Mega fast-food brand: Turning off TiVo fast-forward functionality Mega beer brand: Tracking down opt-outs through affiliated credit bureaus Are we building relationships yet?
  48. SHAMELESS SELF-INTEREST DEPARTMENT That’s some tasty Kool-Aid® June 2007: “The ‘Aeropanel’ offers a unique and exciting advertising format in an uncluttered, relaxed and comfortable environment.” Yeah…it was. RYANAIR’S NEW AD VENUE
  49. EMPOWER YOUR CLIENT Create internal alignment Arm marketers with knowledge of trends, case studies Show examples of low $ investment, high buzz/WOM value Make sure they have brand and message benchmarks to start with What are you coming to the party with? Market needs something to react to before dialogue can begin Present a strategy to engage customer base without pandering to them No MySpace for MySpace’s sake
  50. RULES OF ENGAGEMENT Watch the boundaries Set and stick to brand boundaries When conversation is clearly crossing the line, fearlessly engage detractors in honest dialogue If talk is within the boundaries, leave it alone! Control issues imply a lack of confidence. Fear ain’t sexy.
  51. RULES OF ENGAGEMENT Cautions DO have an authentic presence, but DON’T push messages DON’T jump in with the same old approach (FB banner buys, phony PR blogs, self-interest) – backlash is loud DON’T underestimate this shift Make sure you have a dialogue capability DO use the new channels to increase your own value DON’T think that everyone necessarily wants a “conversation” with their brands
  52. FUTURESHOCK What’s in store? IDENTITY AGGREGATION Is that really YOU? Are you who you say you are? REPUTATION AGGREGATION Others’ public opinions of you and your actions, saved forever and subscribable ACTIVITY AGGREGATION Your online behavior, posts, comments, all of it, easily found, forever - and subscribable
  53. ZOOMINFO.COM AGGREGATING INFO ABOUT YOU WITHOUT YOUR KNOWLEDGE AND PRESENTING IT AS “GOSPEL” THERE’S A PORN STAR WITH THE SAME NAME SHOWING UP IN YOUR RESULTS?
  54. NAYMZ.COM GENERATING A REPUTATION SCORE ABOUT YOU A REP SCORE MAY BE HOW WE CHOOSE BUSINESS PARTNERS OR EMPLOYEES IN THE FUTURE
  55. PROFILACTIC.COM AGGREGATING ALL OF YOUR ONLINE ACTIVITY IN ONE PLACE SUBSCRIBABLE BY ANYONE VOLUNTARY NOW - COULD BECOME AUTOMATED
  56. Parting thoughts Exciting, scary, significant time to be in this business! Witnessing a massive social transformation and empowerment More venues and tools to communicate value than ever There are no experts yet Lots of opportunities for innovative thinking Inertia’s a powerful thing. Status quo = go nowhere. Dip your clients’ toes In - the water’s fine.
