7. Here are 10 of many
social media benefits for
business
8. 1) Improve brand visibility
Social media channels are marketing channels.
Entertaining, useful and relevant content can be shared virally.
An old American insurance
company has over 338,000
Facebook fans
9. 2) Improve customer support
Social media provides new ways to engage with customers.
Go to where your customers already are in social media.
Dell has a social media
listening command
centre
Best Buy empowered 100s of
employees to provide direct
customer support via Twitter
11. 3) Avoid Dell Hell
Negative discussions can quickly escalate
out of control.
Being responsive in social media to
criticism can help rebuild and often
reinforce relationships.
In 2005 Dell was one of the first to get their
fingers burnt by a high profile blogger recording
a bad customer service call.
12. 4) Influence the conversation
Organizations no longer have complete
control of the message.
Open conversations are going in social
media.
By using social media monitoring
organizations can respond quickly and
guide the conversations in their favour.

13. 5) Improve collaboration
Find out about each other.
Form teams, communities or informal
groups.
Work together on the same work
objects.
Discuss and comment on work.
Gartner, October 2009
Zipipop designed and deployed a
social media-based
collaboration environment of
TEM’s OSKE community
14. OSKE’s outcome statements:
• Greater information sharing and
awareness building
• Cluster board meetings are far
more productive and innovative as
they can be prepared with online
communicating in Yammer and
Google documents.
• Face-to-face meetings among
community members have been
reduced significantly; this means
savings in time, money and
natural resources.
• The governance of the community
is much more easier than before;
OSKE Secretariat can contact over
200 people without any heavy
email sending, etc.
• Clusters and project participants
have been able to easily adapt the
platform for their individual
projects.
15. 6) Improve learning & innovation
Learn from others' expertise.
Facilitating social interaction by helping
people to strengthen personal relationships,
develop trust and accelerate business
processes.
Accessing relevant knowledge and expertise
that can be used to formulate a plan of
action when decisions need to be made.
Gartner, October 2009
Zipipop helped Valio develop a
customer community platform
to get better insights into
customer needs and wants
16. 7) Improve competitiveness

ROI is important, but it is also important to ask:
What is the cost of not doing it?
pportunities
17. 8) Improve your story telling
More than ever companies need a compelling story to
stand out from the crowd.
• Why you are remarkable
• What you stand for
• Who you are
• What are your goals
• What you are doing
Innocent’s clear and likable
story allowed them to grow
rapidly and be bought by Coke.
18. 9) Enhance recruitment strategy
Potential employees research your
company in social media: LinkedIn,
Facebook, YouTube, etc.
They will make judgements about
your company values, and how
nice it would be to work there.
Tikkurila had over 70,000
views in just 2 days for this
150 year celebration video
staring its staff
19. 10) Improve your business strategy
The social media strategy should only be created
to support the overall business strategy.
Social media can be a catalyst to break down silos
and encourage an improved flow of information
cross an organization.
Intel set up a Social Media Center of Excellence
and has enabled them to better connect local &
global information.
It has an active presence in Twitter, YouTube and
LinkedIn. And many internal collaboration
spaces, e.g.: Intelpedia (internal wikipedia),
internal blogs, internal micro blogging tools, and
an internal social network.

52. Growing your community
The process of finding out what kind of content is
valuable to your community can take a long time.
55. GOALS
• What are you trying to achieve?
• What resources do you have?
• How will you know you are being
successful?

56. CONTENT PLAN
Some things can be planned for (e.g. seasonal events), but otherwise it is fairly pointless to
try and create specific content too far ahead.
Daily Diary
Strategic
(interesting things
the company has
been up to: new
product launches,
recruits, etc)
Entertaining
(useful & funny
content related to
your industry)
(content that is
designed to get
people to take
action on specific
goals and build
thought leadership)

61. Basecamp
LINKING BACK TO LANDING PAGE
The aim of of all social
media activity is influence
decisions, or take action.
Landing page
Give people reasons to
link back to your content
and site.
By cross-linking between
social media services you
increase exposure and
improve search results.
63. ONE THING
Direct focus onto 1 (max 3) things you
can genuinely claim to provide at a
world class / national level.
64. EXPERIMENTING
Innocent Drinks Communities Manager:
•
Learning as we go, and willingness to
admit to cock ups.
•
Experimenting with ideas and find what
the right mix of content is.

67. ATTITUDE
Brands that do particularly well in social media have a consistent “attitude”.
• Filter for deciding on content
• Gatekeeper for ensuring consistent tone-of-voice across many channels
68. WHAT IS ATTITUDE?
The easiest way we can express our values is to
demonstrate:
• What are we for?
• What are we against?
73. Attitude = Values in action

Actions in this case means social media activity.
Agendas are define by the concerns of the target group.
The attitude guides people how to communicate when
“influencing” social media discussions.

If the actions don’t reflect the values then the customer perceptions will be confused.
80. Values
What are they and can you be sure all
the employees believe, or can be
made to believe, in them?
Must not just be nice words.
81. Best in the world
What parts of your business can you
justifiably claim are delivered at the
highest global/national standards.
Overall marketing should be focused
on these aspects.
82. Target groups
Whose important to your organization?
Who has the purchase decision making power?
Who influences the purchase decisions?
83. Focus
Listen to your target groups and ask questions to find out:
What’s important to them?
What do they need to help them choose your brand?
84. Type of relationship
How should your employees talk with the target
groups?
This is related to tone-of-voice, but is more about
the nature of the relationship they should have;
e.g. friend, buddy, teacher, guru
The persona is based on the values, but
“tweaked” appropriately for different contexts.
85. Attitude
Remember: Attitude = Values in action
The easiest way we can express our values is to
demonstrate:
• What are we for?
• What are we against?
So our communication actions should reflect these
points of view.
86. Perception
What perception(s) do you wish to
enhance or change in the minds of
your target groups.
This is a mix of influencing their
purchase decisions by using impactfull attitude based on verifiable
values.

92. What is good content?
People only use the Internet for two reasons: to solve a problem or to be
entertained. Online content must do one or both to be successful.
You should share content that are
useful, entertaining and relevant to
the recipient.
102. Story Telling
• Narrative is a fundamental way we
make sense of the world.
• More than ever organizations need
a compelling story to stand out
from the crowd.
• Social media channel for telling
your story
Innocent’s clear and likable
story allowed them to grow
rapidly and be bought by Coke
http://www.sxc.hu/photo/103262
103. Telling your story
Through the social media channels
communicate:
• Why you are remarkable
• What you stand for
• Who you are
• What are your goals
• What’s happening now
104. Micro stories
• Each piece of content is a micro story
that builds into a larger narrative.
• It doesn’t have to be a story with a
beginning, middle, and end.
• A good image tells a story.
• Create stories where your product saves
the day and restores balance.
105. Talk about you
• Stop talking about me, I, us, we…
— put you customer in the centre
of the story and talk about you.
• Mix in user-generated /
community content
106. Logic vs Story
“People are moved by stories and
drama and hints and clues and
discovery.
Logic is a battering ram, one that
might work if your case is
overwhelming. Wal-Mart won by logic
(cheap!), but you probably won't.”
Seth Godin
109. Be a purple cow
To get noticed you need to:
•
Be a “purple cow”*, i.e. be remarkable and stand out
•
The cornerstone of this is providing a remarkably good
product or services
•
Find interesting, authentic stories behind your team,
brand, product or company

113. CATCHING THE SOCIAL WAVES
http://www.mesurf.com.au/technique_beginner_greenwave.aspx
http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Oahu_North_Shore_surfing_catching_wave.jpg
The social media team needs to be ready to react quickly to catch the social
media-powered publicity waves.
117. WHAT IS A COMMUNITY MANAGER?
A Community Manager guides
communities towards smooth
and effective collaboration.

118. SOCIAL MEDIA TEAM
Spread and speed up the workload by involving experts from different departments —
authentic knowledgable employees can be your best advocates
Marketing
Sales
Customer service
Communications
Management
Team members should be enthusiastic and
comfortable with using social media
R&D
HR
119. BEYOND MARKETING
“Companies with broader benefits from social
media are more likely to have a large internal
‘social circle’ with multiple functions working
closely together on social media.”

MORE YOU GET OUT
“The best consumer companies at social media on
an average spend double of what the worst
companies do; but the leaders are nearly four
times more likely to get a positive return on their
social media investment.”
TCS Report Mastering Digital Feedback with Social Media October 2013
