Editor's Notes
Social Media Outreach If you’re trying to reach 10 people or 10,000 people, then you need to think about social media. Online Engagement Architect Laura Lee Dooley will give an overview of the top 10 rules for social media engagement. This session will include resources for using social media to listen, measure, and engage your target audience(s), build awareness, and create opportunities for impact.
Social media is all about relationships.And relationships can change the world.
During the 2008 Presidential Campaign, Barack Obama’s team made a major paradigm shift through social media by giving individuals the power and resources they needed to create a wave of support unlike we’ve ever seen before.What do you need to reach your constituents?
This vlog was recorded on January 18th (2011) by Asmaa Mahfouz, the girl who helped start it all. She shared it on her Facebook, and it went viral. It was so powerful and so popular, that it drove Egyptians by the thousands into Tahrir Square, and drove the Egyptian government to block Facebook. The information spread like wildfire and before anybody could imagine there were scores of people, then hundreds, then thousands until it became millions of people in the streets of Egypt which eventually forced then President Mubarak to resign.The following is a partial quote from her video - “Your presence with us will make a difference, a big difference! Talk to your neighbors, colleagues, friends and family and tell them to come. They don’t have to come to Tahrir Square, just go down anywhere and say it, that we are free human beings. Sitting at home and just following us on news or Facebook leads to our humiliation. Leads to my own humiliation… Go down to the street, send SMS’s, post it on the ‘net, make people aware. You know your own social circle, your building, your family, your friends, tell them to come with us. Bring 5 people, or 10 people; if everyone manages to bring 5 or 10 to Tahrir Square, and talk to people and tell them, this is enough! Instead of setting ourselves on fire, let us do something positive. It will make a difference, a big difference. Never say no hope! Hope disappears only when you say there’s no hope.”On the 25th, over 15,000 Egyptians convened with Mahfouz in Tahrir Square.Source: Egyptian Revolution and Web 2.0 as vehicle of consciousness and changehttp://www.mysticsaint.info/2011/02/egyptian-revolution-and-web-20-as.html“The best [Jihad] (struggle) is to speak the truth before a tyrant ruler.” - Bukhari “[In the last few weeks] we have witnessed quite a remarkable history in the making where communication over the internet (a very important modern day symbol of oneness) was at the forefront in seeding this movement and uprising. Due to emergency laws, public gathering was banned for a long time. Thus massive communication over the internet sites was very instrumental in breaking the barriers, bringing people together.”
Trust has tangible value.Brands that are distrusted and facing an onslaught of negative news will have a harder time changing opinion after the storm than they would if they were trusted at the outset.Check out the twitter feed http://twitter.com/mrfredrogers by a Mr. Rogers Fan!

Sometimes people hesitate to get involved in social media because they aren’t prepared for the “Ed TV” effect.Fortunately, social media isn’t a 24/7 view of your life.It is what you and your connections contribute.
Mashable and Hubspot came together to answer the question, “what if rather than try to aggregate activities from existing social sites, there was just one social network that combined them all?”http://mashable.com/2009/04/17/social-media-cartoon-flitterin/
The WRI values offer a good “code of conduct” for how to engage via social media.Brian Solis has a list of 25 best practices at http://bit.ly/qkZhYXHere are some highlights from that list.Add value to each engagement - contribute to the stature and legacy of the brand Practice self-restraint, some things are not worth sharing What you share can and will be used against you – The internet has a long memory Take the time to interpret the context of a situation before jumping in with a response
Some people hesitate to get involved in social media for fear of making a mistake.Social media is very forgiving of mistakes, as long as you are authentic and are generally trustworthy.Photosource:Fall (by James Sheriff)http://www.flickr.com/photos/by-james/126370619/

Find out where your brand’s presence makes sense.* Leverage existing connections and tools first.* Don’t create a new social network on your own domain unless you have a PROVEN compelling reason why people will come and return.* Don’t join every social network just to be there.* Consider staff time, budget, and (most importantly) the time and needs of your audience.Photosource:Jim (by StigNygaard)http://www.flickr.com/photos/stignygaard/3015002645/in/photostream/

6 characteristics of a Trust Agenthttp://www.chrisbrogan.com/are-you-a-trust-agent/Top 10 Quotes From Trust Agentshttp://altaeeblog.com/top-10-quotes-from-trust-agents/1 – Trust Agents are digital natives using the web to be genuine and to humanize their business. they are interested in people (prospective customers, employees, colleagues, and more) and they have realized that these tools that enable more unique, robust communication also allow more business opportunities for everyone.2 – They are the power users of the new tools of the Web, educated more by way of their own experience and experiments than from the core of their professional experiences. They speak online technology fluently.3 – Trust Agents use today’s web tools to spread their influence faster, wider, and deeper than a typical company’s PR or marketing department might be capable of achieving.4 – Trust Agents care about the people in the equation. They work to grow relationships that eventually influence people’s experience with an organization.5 – They make people feel comfortable, all the way, building deep relationships before ever asking something of of others.6 – We don’t need to make another team lose to win ourselves. There’s plenty of room.7 – No matter whether you have lots of connections or few, don’t use this as a measure of your success online.8 - Trust Agents are being in the center of a network and being able to spread ideas.9 – Trust Agents build networks, then build circles, and then include others in those circles.10 – Part of what you do as a trust agent is realizing that everyone else has great ideas, that they are professionals, and that they have angles you’ve yet to consider.
