DIGC202 Adopt a Cat-titude Presentation

Editor's Notes

  1. Adopt a Cattitude!!
  2. The Internet loves cats. reserved withholding personalities Funny seduce us into paying closer attention to them
  3. Cat videos have more views per video than any other category of YouTube content
  4. Industry Merchandise Grumpy cat has made its own $100 million dollars.
  5. Cat Film Festival held by RSPCA where attendees can watch adorable video clips, get a cat tattoo or dress up as their favourite cat Glebe bicenenntial park on October 4
  6. RSPCA, Australia’s largest animal welfare organization release statistics A total of 49,000 cats were received nationally by the RSPCA 31.1% of these cats were euthanized 46,000 dogs – 15.9% euthanased An alarming stat
  7. RSPCA, Australia’s largest animal welfare organization release statistics A total of 49,000 cats were received nationally by the RSPCA 31.1% of these cats were euthanized 46,000 dogs – 15.9% euthanased An alarming stat
  8. leverage people’s love of watching cat related media online into encouraging people to consider adopting a cat Difficult ! PERCEPTIONS + STEREOTYPES Cats animals doing weird and funny things. independent, unfriendly, temperamental, don’t make good pets, solitary wonderful companions, they are very loving, and they are very loyal.
  9. A philosophy that recognizes a message is best received within entertainment – the candy Finding the right tone of voice is difficult. VIDEO!!!!!
  10. Created a Facebook page Unsuccessful. A flop
  11. Mostly family & family friends – nobody who I didn’t ask - 130 post reach BUT limited engagement 9 people engaged – 3 people who like, my dad, brother and Nyssa!
  12. reach and exposure. Follow train
  13. total of 121 engagements – 100 engagements
  14. Engaging with people – sent a photo of their cat conversation…meme out of. One of my largest engagements rates – conversation 60 engagements – Tweet with 3rd largest engagement Traffic Ongoing conversations
  15. Twitter is a more open ecosystem because you meet new people all the time Facebook reach limited to friends Very personal platform. Twitter public conversation – anonymous flow in and out of conversations
  16. Power for page owners to censor things they don’t like about them – Facebook
  17. Twitter has searchable conversations. Posts without hashtags outperform those with hashtags. Social media platforms become a walled garden disconnected to the open web Twitter has added native image hosting, native video hosting and a whole stack of cards to ensure that people spend more time in the stream and less time clicking out to YouTube or Imgur or anywhere else. walled garden where interactions take place primarily Twitter Fundamentally its advantage exist because it is easy to share interests shared interests
  18. People are easily distracted - short attention spans – forces you to be brief 2) Cat media – overload of cat stuff on the Internet – look pay attention to my content – competing for attention How do I make my content noticeable? Different?
  19. Few mini experiments When this is the only mouse you need – benefits of owning a cat – pest control The catfather – parody - an offer you cant refuse 600+ followers – cat lovers
  20. Implying – emotional benefit – appealing - ‘Some people own cats and go on to lead normal lives’ – hit home!
  21. Increase engagement – resonates with cat owners Retweet, share – all friends – goes out! Key influencers Why – encouraging cat adoption - creating content to people who already own cats?!! Few things to consider here
  22. Internet is a virtual cat park “The Net enables lives that were previously impossible, or inconvenient, or uncommon.” – Lawrence Lessig – cyberspace It allows cat lovers to have a dedicated space to celebrate cats the way actual, physical dog parks have long given dog lovers a space to celebrate dogs. drawn to the Internet because they lack other public valves where they can express their affection Community-building Network society paradigm – a culture of openness and sharing , people are decentralised, organised in networks
  23. cats have own dedicated social media presence –– huge Grumpy Cat ,, Lil Bub – huge following LONG TAIL POWER LAW DISTRIBUTION relatively small number of "hits" (mainstream products and markets) at the head of the demand curve and toward a huge number of niches in the tail. effect of the technologies that have made it easier for consumers to find niches
  24. Travis mentioned a really good point - profiles about cats to adopt – This is Dora and Rocky, and Tess – what about rescue stories? Well this could work. Cats owners – brand ambassadors - the best people to inspire adoption. From my own personal experience – just watching a video or seeing meme – encourage you to adopt a cat Emotional, deeper level connection- to their own cats, to other peoples cats – Who is better to inspire other people to adopt than cat owners themselves
  25. Collective intelligence – power of the masses – power of stories! – one individual person doing some content generaiton
  26. Simple survey ‘Gatekeeper’ –
  27. Aggregating and curating content Gatekeeper People find it more enjoyable – someone elses take on it. Particpaotry culture – distributed control of the production of content – it is hard to get people to be producers of content – without any direct gain – money ,
  28. Value - community, find a cat, Incentive – be part of community, have someone write about their cat
