Edelman.ca

achieves little unless they integrate it with other communication
forms and with other business functions
Edelman.ca
Trend #1: Best practices
• Structure social media across silos
• Plan communications across functions
• Integrate and share intelligence across the
enterprise
Edelman.ca

Multiple factors lead companies to adopt social support
activities alongside their traditional channels
Edelman.ca

Trend #4: Ad Agencies Awake

media. 2011 will see that continue, albeit with bumps in the
road.

Trend #4: Best practices
• Integrate advertising into social programs
• Balance pros and cons of different media
forms in communications programs
• Beware of purely campaign-based
approaches
• Leverage creativity while maintaining
engagement
Theme #2:
Maturation of social media
Edelman.ca
Trend #5: "Influence" matures
Companies evolve their approach to influence beyond just
considering reach. Thought leadership and experts take
precedence.
Edelman.ca
Trend #5: Best practices
• Consider context
• Consider spheres of influence outside the
top tier
• Measure outcomes to refine approach
Edelman.ca
Trend #6: Return of websites
After several years of being told to “fish where the fish are”
businesses realize that social integration to existing web sites doesn’t
only help them become relevant—users will expect it.
Edelman.ca
Trend #6: Best practices
• Incorporate social data from connections,
friends
• Design for function & form
• Be conservative on privacy
Edelman.ca
Trend #7: Democratization of voice
Companies continue the path broken by others to allow
additional corporate spokespeople in the online space
Edelman.ca
Trend #7: Best practices
• Set boundaries for free engagement
• Develop community guides to ensure
consistency in approach
• Hire experience and train for success
Edelman.ca
Trend #8: Community management
Community management evolves beyond random engagement
and towards rigorous, measured strategic activity
Edelman.ca
• Engage community members and
encourage participation
• Personalize interactions while reinforcing
corporate priorities
• Act transparently
• Engage respectfully
• Act as a real-time first line of defense for
online issues
Trend #8: Best practices
Theme #3:
Rise of the “less shiny object”
Edelman.ca
Trend #9: Digitally driven crises
No-one thinks they're going to experience a crisis until they do.
More and more organizations will realize too late that they need
to incorporate digital into their crisis plans.
Edelman.ca
Trend #9: Best practices
• Identify potential sources of crises
• Plan ahead; get buy-in on removing
roadblocks
• Monitor continuously for emerging issues
• Practice thorough crisis simulations
Edelman.ca
Trend #10: Digital Curation
Social media allows everyone to produce content. Some is
good; some is bad. As the volume of information increases,
companies may benefit from curating the former.
Edelman.ca
Trend #10: Best practices
• Identify under-served niches and meet
them
• Frame up issues and discussions;
editorialize
• Make curation collaborative and social

Trend #11: Search strategy
Companies will increasingly factor search considerations into
the earned and social realms of their online activities.
Edelman.ca
Trend #11: Best practices
• Think beyond SEM and on-domain SEO
• Factor search considerations into
communications planning, not just content
• Optimize activities to realize long-term
benefit from short-term campaigns
Edelman.ca
Trend #12: Measurement matures
Measurement has long been an Achilles heel for PR.
Advertising agencies are still stuck measuring impressions.
Measurement will, by necessity, evolve in 2011.
Edelman.ca
Trend #12: Best practices
• Mandate metric sharing
• Measure outcomes of activities, not outputs
• Consider measurement at the beginning
and middle – not just the end
• Tailor reports to the audience
• Insist on context alongside numbers
Edelman.ca
Trend #13: Rise of the content strategist
As campaigns evolve to sit alongside ongoing community
management, content creation and optimization takes a central
place at the social media table.
Photo: John Two Persons Benedick
Edelman.ca
Trend #13: Best practices
• Place audiences at the core of content
• Plan and maintain a flexible content
calendar
• Create social objects to drive attention
• Optimize based on previous results
Edelman.ca
Trend #14: Developer Engagement
33
Photo by bugbbq
Developers are driving innovation across all key digital platforms.
Marketing innovators will begin working with developers to scale
their programs and boost their surface area.
Edelman.ca
Trend #14: Best practices
• Make valuable assets available for
developers – e.g. art, text, videos, data
• Build APIs and cultivate a rich developer
network
• Adopt developer creations
34
Theme #4:
Communication accelerates
Edelman.ca
Trend #15: Location, location, Facebook
2010 was Foursquare‟s year, but it never broke through.
Facebook is now paying attention to location, and is poised to
make location-based marketing relevant.
Edelman.ca
Trend #15: Best practices
• Think “LoSoPhoMo,” particularly on
Facebook
• Combine real and digital world
engagement
• Reward advocates with additional
privileges and rewards
Edelman.ca
Trend #16: Social media overload
• Social media overload is nothing new to early adopters, but it
will become an increasing issue for “average” users
Edelman.ca
Trend #16: Best practices
• Identify and elevate your experts
• Dazzle with data
• Integrate social to cut down on new logins
• Ask and answer
Edelman.ca
Trend #17: Marketing in Streams
Increasing prevalence of streams of news means that “what”
and “where” no longer answer enough questions. “When”
becomes an important consideration.
Edelman.ca
Trend #17: Best practices
• Analyse your audience activity
• Schedule updates throughout the day
• Post content at optimum times
Credit: HubSpot
Edelman.ca
Trend #18: Listening becomes mandatory
Increased occurrences of social media-driven issues, combined
with the potential for insights and for building brands and
reputations drives monitoring as a core social activity
Edelman.ca
Trend #18: Best practices
• Formalize monitoring for the organization
• Tailor search taxonomies to functional
needs
• Establish processes to route and escalate
conversations as needed
• Extend monitoring boundaries beyond the
organization to a wider context
