The Web is getting more visual - this is what brands need to do about it Visible
Recently Instagram passed Twitter in daily (US) mobile users, while UK digital camera sales are down 29%. Both relate to the growth of the so-called 'visual web', which is in turn driven by the growing adoption of smartphones.
Head Rabbit Dirk Singer (@dirktherabbit) gave a talk on the subject at the annual 'World Routes' conference in Abu Dhabi. Though the presentation cites airline examples, its applicable for just about any industry sector

Why 2010 is the year of Mobile Social MediaJim Ayson
My presentation at a social networking conference in Makati, Philippines. April 22, 2010. This presentation covers the state of the mobile social media from a global and a Philippine perspective, with a special nod to the mobile operator's point of view.
Not only were bmibaby one of the first airlines to join Instagram, they have led in innovative ways that it can be implemented during the fast growing images sharing revolution. Over the last three months, bmibaby have run a series of competitions to engage, inspire and reward their customers and potential customers within this social network (which is nearing 10 million users!).
With the help of regional Instagramers communities, bmibaby have created visual destination guides of Italy and Germany, rewarding those contributing to the guides with free flights. Ultimately, visual destination guides of all bmibaby destination countries will be created to inspire their whole fan base.
bmibaby Case Study: Using Location Based Networks to Inspire Customer Loyalty...Our Social Times
bmibaby have implemented virtual check in desks at all 39 bases and destinations to encourage customers to check in to win and aims to reward customer loyalty. Insight will also be given to bmibay's Grand Tour of Europe, which aims to engage, inspire and reward customers through location gaming. A fascinating case study focusing the low cost airline's ongoing social media loyalty scheme.

What's it take to do smart social in 2018? Insights and key trends for brandsZeinaKhodr1
So what’s it take to do smart social? These days everyone’s a publisher creating daily random acts of content. The rate of change in the social media world hasn’t slowed at all. The bigger social gets, the bigger the conversations become, and the more there is to consider for all involved. Some of the big social media conversations in 2017 centred around trust, health, political influence, privacy, regulation, and advertising. It was a tough year for marketers to know where they stood in relation to the big platforms, what approach was best, what were the ‘right’ results, and what was required to grow their brands’ social presence

The first truly digital luxury brand: why Burberry gets it?
With the launch of The Art of the trench, Burberry certainly became the first truly digital luxury brand. The first luxury brand to really understand and adopt digital behaviours to conceive and support its brand online communications. There are many reasons why it became a clear success and digital is certainly one piece of a bigger picture.
The aftermath of the Boston marathon bombings showed social media at its best in providing quick, timely information as well as at its worst in helping to feed rumours and misinformation. It also caught a number of brands out who had scheduled, but failed to stop, promotional tweets.
In a talk at the 'Housing Goes Digital' conference, Rabbit's head of content Jim Shaughnessy used Boston and other major news events to show how the Internet has changed the way we consume news, and also how news stories are shaped.
The presentation then goes to show how real-time news leads to real-time marketing, and what this means for brands.
Social media doesn't drive sales. Or does it?Visible
IBM research around the US thanksgiving holiday suggested social media had a tiny effect on sales. This presentation shows how it does have a commercial effect, but says we are measuring the wrong thing anyway.
How much attention does the average TV ad get, and is it true that more and more consumers are off the grid as far as TV is concerned? For more details, see the accompanying blog post - http://liesdamnedliesstatistics.com/2012/06/offthegrid.html
Show me the sales! How social media impacts the bottom lineVisible
This presentation provides ten proof points to try and definitively answer the question of how social media marketing impacts sales.
It also questions whether sales are useful to look at in isolation, showing a number of other metrics.

The results so far
32. What makes this
campaign award
winning?
• Worked with existing community,
longevity, extensions outside of
Instagram, competitor benchmarks,
priority route focus
• Here’s what the judges had to say at
the Econsultancy awards:
“Rabbit started out by seeding the
campaign among Instagram’s super
users in Italy, Germany and Holland,
who helped to raise awareness. This
has resulted in more than 10,000
pictures being submitted to its
destination guides. The offline
aspects of the campaign were
brilliant, with meetups and a
photography exhibition that
generated coverage in more than 100
publications.”
