The document introduces Social Market Research for Charity (SMRC), which aims to 1) map individuals' social and emotional profiles based on their online activities and interests, 2) establish a model for monetizing social content research by matching opportunities to individuals' interests to incentivize participation, and 3) inspire cause marketing by co-branding opportunities with individuals' favorite charities. SMRC's analytical models are based on principles of understanding individuals' interests and social influences. Sponsors can use SMRC to qualify prospects and generate conversions by offering precisely targeted, charity-branded opportunities without invasive advertising. The service aims to significantly increase traffic, content generation, and brand loyalty through these personalized, incentivized methods.

workflows:
ļ· Capture the socio-emotional character/profile/influence of the PUBLIC
social web,
ļ· Establish the business monetization of social content research (to create
matched collaboration, targeted qualification, as an incentive to
noninvasive listings in an opportunity-database),
ļ· Provide both altruistic and financial incentives for research into sponsored
promotional retention, that is matched precisely to each memberās active
and on-going interests (qualified by sponsor requirements), and co-branded
with their favorite registered charity1.
ļ· Significantly stimulate NEW and competitive cause marketing eBusiness, while never requiring purchase.
ļ· Inspire and motivate SMRC sponsors, who will now know that their offers, co-branded with each userās favorite
cause(s), will be precisely relevant, educational, ā cientifically engaging and never invasive (e.g. totally personalized

and co-branded),
ļ· Use content-based linguistics, AI (multi-logic) Configurators and social influence profiling via Web 3.0, 4.0,

Are based on the following behavioral principles and documented observations , respective to:
A. The Individual: Creating anonymity and value first for the user, that
can be safely shared to create additional opportunities that matches
each userās interests in order to support each userās favorite social
causes, with the equal value in rewards, without requiring a
purchase. In order to create the value stated, SMRC analyzes:
1. The emotional character of everyday social content
topics/artifacts is initially based on social taxonomy processing,
emotional linguistic/ NLP, and āsentiment analysisā
(feature/aspect) Configurator technologies which associate the
emotional status (similar to eastern context-based languages),
of any topic, in the context of āa conversationā, often spanning
several previous statements/sentences (as well as past
conversations) with the same social parties/ followers.
o Though similar in spirit to social mediaās āLikesā, Tweets,
favorites, stars, etc., along with giving equal value to
2. positive or negative content, this service can distinguish āhow muchā and āwhyā (what other factors) are related
to what each person precisely likes and/or dislikes. SMRC also gathers from each memberās authorized social
media, without any personally identifying information, any public social-demographic profiling (e.g. Lifestyle,
location, gender, etc.) and related content (like the weather).
o For public (not password protected) social content that produces biometric signatures (ex: audio/ voice, high
quality video), these signatures will be used to rate the content artifact topics of these media, without revealing
identity.
o For members who register for SMRCās āPersonal Avatarsā (Phase II), which will embody each personās complete
public/social memory, SMRC will factor every content artifact/topicās rating, respective to each personsā: (i) avatar;
reflecting their personality profile/simulations (which are constantly updated with on-going, in-depth AI-based
dialogs, rating oneās emotional reaction to the most popular topics), and each personsā (ii) library of multi-media
content artifacts, each rated: emotionally (as well as to the 5 senses), to the other people involved, to the date
and time, along with the artifactās location (as well as with facts like what was the weather), correlated to reflect
an accurate emotion.
2. Common āthemesā of what each person will like,
naturally emerge within individual categories of
each memberās favorite content artifacts (topics),
as well as across categories of each memberās
favorite content ā made up from common
matching secondary characteristics:
o Examples of common themes include: (a) The
common characteristics of 3 of your 10
favorite books, (b) Common characteristics
between your favorite restaurant type, and the
nationality or genre associated with your
favorite content artifact in another category.
o This is the āAh-Haā moment, that people
sometimes experience when they recognize these ācommon themesā of secondary characteristics associated
between the things they each really like ā in a category, or between categories of interest (e.g. Did you ever realize
the 5+ common factor sets between some of your likes?).
3. The priority (relevant importance) between common themes is based on the number of common secondary factors
of each theme, and the overall emotional character rating of the content artifact under analysis. Thus:
o A theme which contains 5 common secondary characteristics has 5 times the importance as a theme with only one
matching secondary characteristic.
o A theme that provides fulfillment for several other themes is proportionally of greater importance.
o The validity of a theme is based on a minimal amount of monitoring, of the aggregate content.
B. Social Influence: Each person is significantly influenced in
their interest in any topic, based on their friends and
ātrustedā associatesā profile, by matching common themes:
1. The degree of closeness/ influence from friends and
trusted associates are directly related to the number
of common themes they share and the depth (2nd
common characteristics) of each common theme.
o A person is 3 times as likely to be interested in a
new topic suggested by a friend or stranger who
shares 3 similar favorite themes (across multiple
categories) ā as compared to another friend or
stranger with whom you only share one common
3. theme of interest.
o A person is 3 times as likely to be interested in a new book suggested by a friend of a stranger who shares 3 of
your favorite books, as compared to another friend or stranger with whom you share only one common book.
2. This is what most people naturally do (e.g. The way they
think/process information), on a sub-conscious level,
weighing the influence of friends and trusted referrals, in
the later phases of any major decision based on the
number and depth of the common themes they share,
specific to a topic, but similar to the the depths of their
interpersonal relations.
3. Find My Doppelgangersā Favorites: From the millions of
profiles of each personsā precise ālikes/will-likesā, SMRC
will find each personsā doppelgangers (e.g. people sharing
6 or more of the same favorite WILL-LIKES). The potential
that you āWILL-LIKEā your doppelgangersā new interests, will be directly related to the number of common favorite
themes you share with the other person(s).
4. Peopleās social likes to dislikes (and how much) of social artifacts/topics, will become the standard definition of
measurable, trade-able value for any content artifact/ topic in the world (of all SMRC sponsors and members), as
the definition of any artifactās socially trade-able value, is directly related to the supply-demand equation of (1) How
many people know about the artifact, and (2) how much one, some or all, want/like the artifact.
5. Peopleās personal philanthropic interests will perfectly
reflect the membershipsā social ethos and the
incentives (+rewards of equal value) that make it a
sustainable design, based on the value of content, and
participation in research matching each personās
interests.
6. Sponsors and members, together, locally and globally,
co-supporting their common social/philanthropic
interests, will generate a minimum of $0.60/day for
memberās anonymous social content, and $5-10 per
hour (in custom donations +rewards) for their response
to research matching their interests, that does not
require purchase.
C. Sponsors & Charity: Provide goodwill and personal rewards of equal value for content research and sponsored research
precisely matching a membersā interests, co-branded with each memberās favorite charity, for loyalty and/or conversions:
1. Will generate as the āhostā to their followers, without cost,
$30+ per year per followers (as compared to just members or
subscribers) in donations to the sponsorās favorite charity and
trade-able, deductible rewards of equal value, while the
average follower generates $600+ per year for their favorite
charities and rewards of equal value ā based on their everyday
social content and for responding to rewarding behavioral
research matching their interests.
2. Currently, over 46% of people who interact on-line are either
advertising insensitive (ignoring) or advertising-adverse
(reacting negatively), while over 75% of the market is
interested in co-branding support for local charities with all
See enlarged graphic for detail
4. forms of commerce and research.
o By rewarding attention and recall topics that are precisely matched to each personās undeniable interests, co-
branded with each personās favorite social causes, rewarding attention from qualified prospects, without
requiring purchase, will generate at minimum double the net returns, from over four times as many people
responding.
o Though not supporting any invasive advertising, SMRC
sponsors will provide their followers to opt-in to receive only
opportunities that are precisely matched to their followerās
interests (validated and qualified to their social and Geo-
demographic profiles, and), delivered as noninvasive real-time
custom opportunity listings each member reviews in their free
time.
o By adding social-demographic qualifications to opportunity
listings matching membersā interests, this self-qualifies
responders for sponsors, while ensuring people do not
receive spam/offers that they cannot take advantage of. See enlarged graphic for detail
3. At $0.03 per qualified anonymous profile, along with $1-2 on average for 10+ minutes of the un-divided attention of
such qualified prospects, this will generate significant business conversions from the 160%+ of people who will try
and switch brands, based on the support by a sponsor, co-branded with the prospectās favorite charity.
o The net result of registering a sponsorās follower(s) (creating value from your followerās content), at no costs for
cause marketing, should be at minimum, a doubling of web business and/or memberships for the sponsor.
o The net result of additionally cause marketing (at $0.03 per profile by charity, and $1-2 in value per qualified
research response), should be at minimum a doubling of net business revenues, and 4X the overall response to
your noninvasive custom promotions per prospect.
D. Additional features regarding SMRC content and research monetization:
1. All Hosts (sponsor or member) receive 4% of
the on-going donationsā and rewardsā value
generated by friends and social associates
who respond to the hostās invitation to
register with SMRC.
2. Without any costs to the sponsor or host, or
rewards for themselves, they must give
away the same amount of custom donations
and the equal rewards value to socially
worthy causes.
3. Devoid of any private identifying contact
data, all sponsors will receive monthly
reports, sorted by each sponsorsā followerās
charity affiliation, of that charity groupās
social-topic profiling (all major categories of
āLIKESā) and socio-demographics profiling. This format (providing only contact via SMRCās opportunity reports) is
identical to the content acquired by other SMRC cause-marketing sponsors who all promote noninvasively (e.g. Either
by matching offers in the opportunity reports, or by only offering customized promotions to SMRC members).
4. Testimonials (positive or negative) generate a minimum $5 average in value (as donations w/ rewards).
5. ECommerce post purchase or usage reviews generate 5% of the sponsorās price as donations to the prospectās
favorite charities along with the equal value in rewards, that are given to the prospect (as compared to the Sponsor
who normally receives the charitable deductions) as true generosity, in exchange for on-going customer loyalty,
reinforced with every sponsor interaction (research or purchase).
5. E. The Bigger Picture:
1. Research / Insight/ Models: Using this data, you are able to ask questions like
"How would MY followers feel about .....?" or "How would followers of this popular,
local social cause/charity, feel about ....?", and receive an accurate report of the
related patterns, anomalies and social influences that together, profile/answer the
query.
Dislikes and Why: Mapping the emotional character of everyoneās social content
for the common theme āextremesā (LIKE and DISLIKE), will allow you to also ask
āWhy do followers of this social cause dislike ā¦.., and why? ā or, what are the
associated patterns, anomalies and social influences/conditions?
Identity Authentication: With such an extensive profile of each personās
preference/personality, social Geo-demographics, and habits, this information could be securely authorized by each
person, for use by their personal identity protection services ā to provide additional protection and notification of
potential fraud/identity-theft.
Avatars for (a) The elderly and (b) At-Risk Youths: Representing each personās historical collective of emotional
responses and associated social influences on virtually any social topic, avatars/simulations integrated with
modularized computer assisted learning, would be of great social and personal value to these classes of users.
2. Channels by Topic & Affiliation to Charity: Using this service, SMRC sponsors have a non-invasive channel for
promotional research offers (see next) that precisely matches the patterns and anomalies related to peopleās interest
in a sponsorās offering/solution, to the followers of any popular social national or local cause, (i.e. With that charity in
a SMRC member's charity profile), AND the followers of those followers (who share the similar complex themes of
interest and charities). Using SMRC's 2 year historical files, the analysis of the prospective market (by charity
affiliation) for these offers/listings, should be easy to secure (see the prior paragraph).
Qualification: Promotional research opportunities, that donāt require a purchase, are self-qualified by
sponsors ātypically from the related in-depth social-demographic profiling), and reward attention and recall
(
(as ā ultiple-choice quizzes, no surveys) to promotional materials/ content that is precisely matched to ā ach personās
m e
interests (and social spheres of influence).ā Net: Qualifed leads, No spam for Members.
3. Traffic/Content/Response: The mass increase in traffic and in response to promotions, are from people seeking, or
responding to, opportunities to generate original content/feedback to content that matches their āWILL-LIKESā
(interests) for donations +rewards), offering double the value generated for double the participation or recall.
Customized content and research opportunities (for charity +rewards), are provided as on-demand reportage.
Conversions: Expect as much as a 46% new increase, from the on-line markets that hereto, responded negatively to
invasive advertising, and as much as a 60% change in brand loyalty, from competitive sponsors, co-branding with the
favorite charity of each of their prospects.
