Webinar Slides: Authentic v. Automated Communication - Yes, You Can Do BothConverge Consulting
Marketing automation is a huge buzzword in higher education today. Recruiters are busy. Marketers are busy. The need for some degree of automation in our communication processes is undeniable. But what’s the right balance? Can we make automation feel personalized? How?
The answer is yes – automated communications can (and should) feel personal. When it comes to authentic v. automated communication, you don’t have to choose one or the other. In this case, you can have your cake and eat it too! You’re probably wondering how that is possible.
Segmented messaging ensures that we create and deliver authentic personalized content, even when our communications are automated. User personas provide the benchmarks for segmentation and content strategy helps us plan, map and workflow our way to communication that is, in fact, both authentic and automated.

9. “Metrics should drive what you do...so
important...but misunderstood. In digital you can
get concrete numbers. But leaders don’t want
“meaty metrics.” WE should have a greater
understanding of metrics and what they mean.
We need to teach others [including leaders].
Often what we report to HIPPOs isn’t right.”
-Executive Director of University Communications and Marketing
10. “We need to get more academic about what we
do. We’re not just the new shiny. Metrics that
matter aren’t always as easy to report quickly or
understand as something like page views. You
need to dig in, so you can make decisions related
to program marketing, course development,
faculty hiring, and
resource allocation.”
-Executive Director of University Communications and Marketing

39. Reporting You Results
• Who: Match your metrics to the appropriate audience

• When: How often can/should the information be used to
make decisions?
• So What: Ask this repeatedly to get to the data that
matters. Support strategic decision making.
40. Reporting You Results, continued
• Simplify and explain; avoid jargon
• Connect to your goals
• Consider visuals
– Canva or Google Slides are great if you don’t have design
skills

collect likes and retweets

Editor's Notes
This is a conference about the changing social media landscape. I think the biggest change is that social media has woven itself into the daily fabric of most Americans—and most organizations. It’s no longer enough to “just be there.” Because the internet—and social media—is real life, social media managers (and their bosses, and their grand bosses) should be able to articulate how their work contributes to key institutional priorities. If you haven’t been asked about this already, you will be. And mumbling something about your followers, retweets, and story views will not be enough. I know you can do it, and today I want to make sure you’re equipped to do so.

If you haven’t been asked about this already, you will be. And mumbling something about your followers, retweets, and story views will not be enough. I know you can do it, and today I want to make sure you’re equipped to do so.
I used to teach an online professional development course called Social Media Measurement in Higher Education. Between 3 and 10 students would work through 4 weeks of reading, discussion, and assignments so they felt confident and competent measuring and reporting on their social media efforts. I taught almost 100 students in this course, so I’ve glimpsed behind the curtain of social media strategy at both the campus and department level at all types of institutions. The first question in the first discussion was, “What goals are you using social media to achieve?” For some students, this was the hardest question in the course. And not just because I’m a tough instructor who refused to accept “Increase followers” as a goal. Some of them had literally never been told what objectives they were supposed to work towards.
-
I’ve experienced this too. When I was hired as a social media strategist, I asked my interviewer how my success would be evaluated. I give him points for honesty, because he said, “We’re hoping you can tell us that.” That might seem like a chance for me to coast, but when I was called in front of the board three years later to explain the purpose and outcome of our social media program in 15 minutes, I was glad I chose goals that corresponded with business goals and designed my strategy and measurement accordingly.
As you think about what it is you’re trying to achieve, I’d like to encourage you to strike the phrase “Social media goals” from your vocabulary. Instead, consider how you use social media to contribute to departmental or institutional goals. Depending on the role you play on campus, those goals may include one or more of the following. [list]
Is this resonating? Are there department or institutional goals you support that aren’t included here?
-
These are goals that resonate in executive offices and the board room. In most cases, “social media goals” like followers, shares, views, comments, and reach are easy and maybe fun to report, but they do not demonstrate impact.
They’re not always on social media platforms
Fill in with notes about each one.
Activities = what you published
Published a magazine every quarter
Placed 3 major news articles each month
25 press clippings each month
Posted to Facebook 7 times per week
We sent a monthly newsletter as required to keep our grant
Viewership = who saw your content
This is what you often see for TV, display, and now social media advertising.
Our campaign reached 50,000 people!
Our display ads reached 13,000 parents of prospective college students
Efficiency = how far you stretched your dollars or human resources
Well, Facebook is better for advertising than LinkedIn because our it’s only 15 cents per click compared to $5.
Financial = the cost of activities, or the return on investment
Let’s talk about ROI….
Outcomes = what people did because of your content.
This might just be the ISTJ in me, but this is the type of metric I want to be able to report along with my marketing and communications efforts.
Did people donate, apply, attend, subscribe, or purchase?
A lot of offline outcomes, like applications, donations, or awareness, include online conversations like inquiries/application submissions, gifts, and website views. The key to tying these conversation to social media likely lies in your web analytics software.

Otherwise known as the gobbledygook shown after the question mark in a URL. Who knows what they are?
Don’t stop at social! This same structure could/should be built into all of your digital marketing – including emails, display and mobile ads, and search engine marketing or other CPC ads.
Don’t ask me how many followers my company, Campus Sonar, has on social media. I don’t know. And we don’t have a goal for that. What I do know is how many leads came from social media, our blog, and our newsletter. And soon I’ll be able to tell you what type of content converts to leads at the highest rate. You can do this to! I’m going to walk through this conceptually, and at the end of my talk I’ll share some supporting resources in case you want to go back to the office and study up, or preach to your colleagues the gospel of outcomes-based measurement.
Social media is an important part of campus life. What happens there can contribute to real-world outcomes like enrollment, retention, press coverage, brand awareness, alumni engagement, and fund-raising. The people managing social media—likely many of you in this room—do so much more than attract followers and collect likes and retweets. My hope is that you’re able to adequately capture the impact you have on campus outcomes, so your work is taken as seriously as it deserves to be.
