New developments in Digital Marketing - an overview of social media platforms and how to create traction and influence with a focus on arts and culture, particularly Theatre for Young Audiences
We all know that, thanks to technology, everything about everything is changing. You can pick up a million other books to describe the surface of those changes, or to wax poetic on what the changes might/maybe/could possibly mean. Most people still associate social with marketing when, in reality, it's much more than that. Social is... well, social. The way in which relate to one another and that affects business, leadership, and even your career.
This deck (co-created with the amazing Tara Hunt) is meant to complement the book, which was first published September 2012 (and named by Fast Company as a best business book of 2012).
It offers a clear breakdown of what the Social Era means now, and how best to take advantage of its benefits in the near and distant future. Each of us need to challenge traditional thinking and it helps if we use examples to show others what "future" (actually, present) looks like.

Online engagement leads to action, and that’s what every organization wants from social media usage. Take your Facebook and Twitter engagement to the next level as we discuss proven tactics for increasing engagement. We’ll talk about the latest research that reveals when and how often to tweet and post Facebook status updates, what type of tweets and updates are most shared and commented on, who tweets, and why people share online. We’ll also discuss many real-life, specific engagement tactics from nonprofit organizations, including why these tactics were successful and how you can replicate them.

The Revolution will not be Televised...but if you're lucky, it'll be memed.Tara Hunt
I gave this presentation at CTAM Canada's annual gathering at Corus HQ in Toronto on June 20th. I think it's safe to say that it was a bit...um...controversial.
In order to prepare for this talk, I poured over mutiple reports and studies about the state of the Canadian Media and Entertainment industry. These reports included a lot of hand-wringing over online and American VOD services (Neflix, etc), but really discounted "User-Uploaded Video" (or "User-Generated Content") as largely irrelevant (except for the CRTC, who seems to want to regulate and tax creators).
So...that's what I focused on in here: UGC, including Creators (and online influencers), remix/mashup culture, stans/super fans, and social media content in general.
Three points where I think the audience winced:
1. with the enormous growth in available content, we are seeing a huge appetite for diverse stories - we don't need any more content aimed at white people.
2. the biggest competitors for attention are your own audience, who are no longer "consumers"...they are creators. And there are many of them and growing.
3. stop worrying about people stealing your content. Content isn't where the value lies. Attention is where the value lies. You should be encouraging them to steal! It's free marketing!
I guess I can understand why my message was a little controversial, but I want to help, not hurt.

Bringing the Audience - Integrated Marketing Communications 101 and BeyondWest Muse
Marketing messages haunt our every waking moment in a never-ending stream of information via broadcast, print, and the web. Today, more than ever, there is a need to reach visitors in creative, life-enriching ways, to break through the cacophony and engage diverse audiences. This session explores integrated marketing communication strategies that weave traditional marketing and public relations, such as broadcasting and print, with social media avenues, internal and external events, and partnership opportunities to create a tapestry of community enrichment.

How to crowd-produce the public space? How can we conceive new models for social networks?

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

5. Interest based networks are booming
• Tumblr jumped 130% in unique visitors from Nov 2010 to Nov
2011
• Pinterest jumped 1125% in UVs from May 2011 to Nov 2011
• Foursquare’s user base grew more than 1000% from August
2009 to July 2009 and 1000% again from August 2010 to July
2011
• Instagram took only 9 months to reach 150 million photos, and
just one year to reach 10 million members
• Facebook grew only 9% from Nov 2010 to Nov 2011

6. Real-time Poll
• How many of you like every single thing your friends like?
• Are you willing to trade your personal relationships to get to
content that you want?
#socialfresh @matthewknell
Page 6
7. The interest graph movement
• The “shopping mall” is slowly being replaced by the “boutique”
store.
• The next wave of social media sites facilitate content creation
and curation content based on interests.
• Users, not people are the vehicle; content is the engine.
#socialfresh @matthewknell

13. A “problem” – Facebook marketing is “easy”
• Facebook Pages
• Facebook Places
• Applications
• Facebook Sponsored Stories
• Engagement Ads
• Premium Ads
• Social plugins (like button, share button, recommendations)
• Open Graph 2.0 (new style actions, frictionless sharing)
• Facebook Insights
#socialfresh @matthewknell
Page 13
14. Interest based networks have limited paid marketing options
• Foursquare – Badges ($20k-$30k per month)
• Tumblr – “highlighted posts”
• Instagram, Pinterest - ???
#socialfresh @matthewknell
Page 14
15. You need to be interesting… more so
• On these platforms, content strategy and brand affinity
matters more than ever
• Even if users care about your brand, it is difficult to keep re-
engaging with them.
• Assumptions on your user base based on your Twitter and
Facebook demos can be risky.
#socialfresh @matthewknell
Page 15
16. HOW CAN YOU BE INTERESTING?
#socialfresh @matthewknell
17. Do a content audit
Consider:
• Is there a logical business need for using this platform?
• Your brand and where it fits in the world
• Types of content you have to share
• Curation and copyright concerns
• How do you want to tell your story?
• What you’re already doing on other social platforms?
• What device do you want your users to find you on?
• Who on your team will manage these accounts?
• How can this fit within your existing content calendar?
#socialfresh @matthewknell
Page 17
18. Test and target
• These platforms depersonalize human personas
• Instead of focusing on user demographics, focus on content
personals
• Your testing groups should be organized by affinities
• People who like behind the scenes pictures
• People who like celebrity photos
• People who like pictures of cats
• People who think this is the best SocialFresh preso of the conference.
#socialfresh @matthewknell
Page 18
19. Go fishing
• “Build a content museum” – curate or create one thing at time
• Use each channel of content to meet a slightly different user
interest.
• Use “snackable” assets strong enough to stand on their own
that are closely aligned with the theme.
• Drive your content towards a business goal when possible (a
page view, a purchase, a signup, a visitor to your store)
• Use success to refine your content personas.

• Tumblr – tell stories in simple posts with an emphasis on
content but want to take advantage of the built in community
• Foursquare – when you are a business / brand trying to
translate offline actions in to online actions
• Instagram – when you want to capture moments in time in
photographs
• Pinterest – when you want to claim your share of the interest
graph and you have a creative / fashionable audience
