When we think about social media and effective word-of-mouth campaigns we tend to think of meerkats and marmite. However back in 1996 a campaign was started by Sabeer Bhatia and Jack Smith for an email account which freed you from your ISP. You could invite a friend and the signature of every mail invited the email recipient to sign up. In 18 month, with the help of 300,000 dollars VC money, Hotmail had gone from zero to 8 million plus users and been purchased by Microsoft for about 400million dollars.
Facebook BursonMarsteller May 12 2011 statement
Tom Coates was a pioneer of blogging in the UK and influential amongst web technologists so when he wrote a personal blog post about the father he hasn’t seen in 30 years, you might think that the context meant that the blog post wouldn’t be a suitable for a brand interaction from Cillit Bang. Over a 100 blog commenters and journalists at the Guardian would have agreed with you.
“Hi Tom, Always remember one thing. Life is very, very short and nothing is worth limiting yourself from seeing the ones you love. I hadn't seen my father in 15 years until 2 years ago. I was apprehensive but I kept telling myself that no matter how estranged we'd become there was no river to wide to cross. Drop me a line if I can be of any more help. Cheers, Barry” (Scott)
One of the key campaign groups Wal-Mart launched at the end of 2005 was Working Families for Walmart, Edelman worked with Wal-Mart to create a site around the group and developed content for the site. So Walmartwatch registered workingfamiliesforwalmart.com domain and directed to their own site instead
This next one was a tricky slide for me to create, but local government never fails to disappoint in providing content which isn’t that engaging. At 300 views over a year, the traffic is more likely to be from accidental viewers via Google than an active audience. And this video by Leicestershire County Council is one of their better ones, though I didn’t watch all 9 minutes and 25 seconds of it. Two further points to note: They aren’t interested in a dialogue with their audience as the comments have been turned offI wonder if they got approval to use The Rolling Stones – Gimme Shelter as the background music?
Coca-Cola worked with London’s Lean Green Fighting Machine to develop a Facebook application which tweeted a status on behalf of the user. These were changed on a regular basis and designed to reflect Dr Pepper as a hip young brand. One of the status tweeted was “Just watched 2 Girls, 1 Cup; feeling hungry” in reference to a particularly nasty video that went viral. I can’t show you that video but I can show you Stan from Family Guy’s reaction to it. Coca-Cola has since withdrawn the application following the error being brought to its attention by the mother of a 14-year old girl.
This is a still taken from thepunchline of an advert for Motrin. Motrin as a US brand of ibuprofen. The video was an irreverent look at the life of a mother and was supposed to propose Motrin as a source of relief from back pain that the mother received from carrying around their child in a baby carrier. Mothers took to blogger and to Twitter and whilst their number was relatively small in the grand scheme of things their vigorous reaction quickly attracted the attention of the mainstream media.

P&G pushed out these nappies sometime at the end of last year and had been receiving negative reviews from parents in North America with allegations of skin rashes and blisters developing. P&G was perceived to have sneaked out these nappies as changelings as they didn’t have the new packaging ready – a mix up between production and marketing. A series of facebook groups have formed and parents started to rally around it. By May there was mainstream media pick up and a government investigation launched by the US Consumer Product Safety Commission. The communications programme threw petrol on the fire claiming that P&G has been the subject of “completely false rumors fuelled by social media”. Further that “These rumors are being perpetuated by a small number of parents, some of whom are unhappy that we replaced our older Cruisers and Swaddlers products while others support competitive products and the use of cloth diapers” and that the complaints received were within the range normally receivedA fortnight later the tone moderated a bit: "We're walking the fine line of communicating that the diaper is not causing the rash and still being sympathetic to the fact that they're really having a rash, and our heart goes out to them. First and foremost, we care about babies' health."P&G has now put in place emergency marketing dollars behind the product and facing down four class lawsuits. Contrition & closure
