What’s happening? Credibility on the Internet is no longer an exclusive domain that belongs to companies and publishers, but now belongs to everyone who wishes to participate and engage with it. The Social Web revolution is challenging conventional media channels, and forces companies to re-think their traditional Marketing and Communication strategies.

The three rules of the Cluetrain Manifesto 1. Markets are conversations. 2. Markets consist of human beings, not demographic sectors. 3. Conversations among human beings sound human. They are conducted in a human voice. Conversation 2.0 © 2007 frog design. confidential & proprietary. Oct 15,, 2007 10

From branding to live brands From messages to conversations From user-targeted to user-generated content From stars to social butterflies From promoting value to creating added value Conversation 2.0 © 2007 frog design. confidential & proprietary. Oct 15,, 2007 11

From branding to live brands Democratic. In the old days the power to inform was in the hands of a few giant media companies. Now it’s in everybody’s hands. Real. Conversations are carried out by human beings who write and speak in their own voices, for themselves - not just for their employees. Curious. Humans are distinguished by their unlimited capacity to learn. This should be no less true of brands than it is of individuals. Attentive. In the old days, brands wanted everybody to pay attention to them. Now brands need to pay attention to everybody else. Conversation 2.0 © 2007 frog design. confidential & proprietary.

The five rules of conversational marketing 1. The purpose of the conversation is to create and improve understanding and not to “deliver messages.” 2. There is no “audience” in conversation, only partners. 3. People in conversations don’t repeat the same thing over and over – they move on. 4. Conversations are about listening and talking, not announcing. 5. Conversation is live, and constantly moving and changing. Conversation 2.0 © 2007 frog design. confidential & proprietary.

If everyone spent just one hour every Friday to log onto XING, Facebook, or LinkedIn, building their networks, connecting with people in the community, companies would - Hire talent - Drive incremetal traffic to their web properties - Generate new business Case in point: Serena Software ($255 million business software firm) in San Mateo, California, launched Facebook Fridays. The idea is for Serena’s staff of 900 (average age, 41) to spend an hour each week on Facebook – updating their profiles, communicating with clients and colleagues, and recruiting for Serena.
