This presentation explores key aspects of the web 2.0 and social media. Using a Cisco case study this presentation reveals how Cisco created an interactive web experience using web 2.0 and built a community using social media outlets including Facebook, Second Life, blogs and discussion forums ultimately spreading its marketing message for the introduction of a new router. This was presented at a SVAMA Emerging Media Morning Forum on March 26, 2008.
Update: I made some changes to the deck on July 1, 2008 based on some feedback from Jeremiah Owyang including a valuable slide on lessons learned near the end of the deck.

vickytaHi LaSandra, thanks for sharing the slides. Your campaign was very well orchestrated. I recently launched a similar campaign at my company. The program initially focused on inbound communications for endorsement and acceptance. I am mostly interested in how you spread collateral and images in widget format. Also, what kind of coverage did the campaign receive?4 years ago

LaSandra Brill, Social Media Manager at Cisco Systems@guest78bb04 - Since the product just launched in March we don't yet know the sales impact as everything is still in the pipeline. For metrics we used the CRS-1 launch as comparison (which was a very successful launch for its time) and the investment for this online only launch was multipliers less with more impact relative to press, blog posts, web page views, launch event attendees and overall impressions.4 years ago
