!
Community Architect - WTF is that bro?
POLITICSTO MARKETING?
To me...	

!
Branding is about the aftertaste.	

!
!
The emotion...	

!
	

 	

 ...the memory...	

!
	

 	

 	

 ...the gut feeling you get when you interact with a
brand that lingers.	

!
!
Audience vs. Communities: 	

!
• The audience witnesses the brand. (Broadcast)

!
• The community is the audience that adopts the brand.
(Engagement)

!
• Advocates are the loyal and passionate people behind brands.
They are re-marketers. (WOM Advocates / Brand Loyalists)	

!
Grassroots community organizing is about empowering the
public to take action and mobilize.

!
Word of Mouth Marketing is about empowering loyal
advocates of brands to re-market, organically.

Voter Data in Political Campaign	

Empowering, Nurturing, and Scoring	

!
Initial Empowerment

2. Divide into constituency / voter groups (segmentation)	

3. Activate these for Community Leaders	

4. Build structure around these activated members of the
community	

5. Begin to lead score their activity / touches 	

!
!
!
Segmentation and Activity Monitoring	

of Activated Community Leaders is key!	

!
Initial Empowerment	

1. Low hanging fruit 	

1. Current customers (email lists)	

2. Referral programs or re-engagement (open graph
activity, share for social credit, etc.) 	

3. Scoring of Leads	

!
!
!
The Common Path	

!

• Why are they passionate? Who else will recognize that 

passion and why? Lightbulb moment? 	

!
• List and Persona Segmentation! ( Next Slide)	

!
• WOM adoption, then follow up empowerment...
understanding that connection!	

!
!
!

LOYALTY
Everyone likes to be rewarded, but I'm not sure that will nurture loyalty in
Millennials. Loyalty is ignorance/lack of better options.With knowledge available at
their finger tips, Millennials could switch loyalty at the drop of their hat. 	

- Shilpa Rao Practice Head - Merchandising Retailwire Blog	

!
Loyalty = "Lack of better option."	

!
Fragile brand loyalty?
MANAGING FATIGUE
There is responsibility in empowerment. Once you create a hungry brand ambassador,
you must have the tools and response.Are you staffed for this responsibility? 	

Forget about digital strategy, do you have a volunteer strategy? For both brands and
grassroots organizing.What can they do to feel the momentum moving forward.That
their impact is heard, felt, witnessed, and part of the larger picture.	

• Brand Leader Roundtables	

• Project Management	

• Goals / Objectives(Visibility to the WHY)	

• Involve them in the overall strategy. Give them a voice!
