Social media has become the fastest way to humanize your brand. Once "faceless" corporations are embracing transparency and authenticity and engaging with their customers. By by-passing the call center, by responding as real people and by adding a touch of humour, companies are increasing customer loyalty. In this presentation Christine Perkett shows how brands are shifting from staunch, corporate entities to humanized, "socialized" powerhouses

Go Fund Yourself: How crowdfunding & peer to peer is dangerously changing fun...

Slides from presentation by Big Duck and NTEN at DMA Nonprofit Federation Nonprofit Conference in August 2015. For nonprofits, the fundraising landscape has evolved. Moving beyond the “donate now” button and writing a check, donors want to be actively involved in your cause and help create change together. Harvesting the passion of your community is key to successful fundraising and long-term engagement. In this session, participants learned the differences in crowdfunding vs. peer to peer and how these new tactics can be balanced in your fundraising arsenal. Our discussion included specific examples of successful nonprofit fundraising strategies using crowdfunding and other creative community-led campaigns and tips for how to get started.

Ironically, there is perhaps nothing people like to discuss more on social than its demise: Facebook’s organic reach for brands is plummeting, millennials are constantly redefining the rules, and ROI is harder to prove than ever.

Join our webinar as the panelists discuss: -Challenges social marketers face as the landscape changes -Long-term benefits of social marketing -Ways to position your brand to remain agile instead of reactionary in the face of change -The latest social platforms and strategies to keep your marketing relevant and engaging

How does your organization encourage the kind of nimble thinking required to match social customer engagement needs? What kinds of creative thinking go on behind the scenes that spur new ways to position your brand for optimal engagement? In this slide deck, learn tips from our panel of experts on: -How to integrate creative thinking at an organizational level to avoid getting stuck in a sales rut. -How to make sure your brand stays nimble and agile enough to approach the customer from several angles -New ways and best practices for interacting with customers in a way that feels authentic and also produces results.

here has been a lot of talk about real-time marketing (RTM) over the past few years. The majority of marketers now understand the practice, but many see it as a flash-in-the-plan tactic. It’s a hot topic of conversation, but one that has been primarily fueled by opinion, not fact. Join us for this one-hour webinar to explore one of the latest trends in social marketing for brands, agencies, and media with a panel of experts, including Trendology author, Chris Kerns. We’ll specifically discuss: · A data-driven approach to determining whether RTM really works (Spoiler alert: it does!) · Different ways that your brand can utilize real-time marketing · How to align your team for RTM Success · Key RTM pitfalls and how to avoid them

Allocating resources across the marketing mix is a lot like gathering the ingredients for a cookie recipe. You’ve got to determine the right ingredients and proportions for a delicious result. You want the finished goodie to delight cookie lovers—from positive comments and advocacy to second helpings and a commitment to your cookies. Although there are many good cookies out there, there are a multitude of options for consumers to research, engage, and build a relationship with your particular cookie, or brand. That’s why it’s essential that your company’s marketing mix has the right allocation of resources across the four Ps of marketing: placement, price, product, and promotion. You’ll want to join our panel of expert social bakers to discuss the importance of: -Analyzing your social media channels, content, and subscribers -Connecting your communications with channels -Listening to community needs to fill gaps -Combining channels where necessary -Building your marketing strategy

Trust is the New Currency: Innovative Models for Business Transactions

Gerris

Six out of ten U.S. consumers study a company’s reputation before buying a product or service, according to the 2013 Harris Poll Reputation Quotient. Reputation is everything with trust-based systems enabled by the Internet replacing traditional currency, such as an ad in the Yellow Pages, a magazine or on a billboard. Take Amazon, for example, which beat Apple, Google, Walt Disney, and Johnson & Johnson as the most trusted company in the U.S. in the Harris Poll. It remains the leading online retailer with a reputation for security, an endless inventory, and effortless shipping and return. Plus, it has a truly groundbreaking recommendation system. The other top companies have similar strengths, but the emotional bond Amazon builds with its customers when their box arrives seals the deal.

CMOs are under the gun now more than ever to show how social media marketing directly impacts bottom line revenue.

What, really, is the value of a “like?” If you are a marketer who needs help showing your CMO that an active social community actually improves commerce, this webinar is for you. Hear from our panel of experts as they discuss: How to use user-generated content to persuade and influence the purchasing decision. The best ways to quantify positive social sentiment. Which metrics matter in the connection between digital community and business bottom line. What CMOs really want to hear and the best ways to deliver those results.

Storytelling Gone Wild: The Key to Creating Viral Content

The question marketers have been asking themselves for a few years now is, “Is there a secret to creating viral content?” The answer is yes and no. Yes, there are ways to help boost your content towards the goal of going viral. No, it’s not a secret. In many ways, the tactics to go viral are common sense. What about your content will activate an emotional response in your audience? What kinds of emotions does your audience respond to? Are you providing practical information in a unique way? Are you getting it in the right feeds at the right times? Join us in this webinar as our content experts discuss: Examples of content that goes viral, with explanations why How to ask the right questions of your own content, so each message you send out has potential Kinds of strategies to apply at different parts of the process for best results And how to analyze those results in a realistic, goal-appropriate way

Social Listening: Harness Marketing Insights from Consumer Conversations

Social channels like Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and even Reddit have brought brands and their audiences closer than ever before. If your marketing team is like leading organizations around the world, you’re already using social listening technologies to conduct market research, monitor and measure your campaigns, and support customers. That’s a great start. But if you and your team aren’t aware of all the other ways that you can use social media to really maximize your marketing investments, you could be missing out on additional channels to exceed your targets, expand your share of voice, and create even more marketing-generated revenue for your organization. Join our experienced panelists as they discuss how innovative marketing teams are expanding their social monitoring strategies, including: Using real-time alerts and trends for reputation & crisis management Distributing social data and insights across the enterprise Conducting content research to discover topics of interest for targeted influencer and advocate campaigns

Omni-Channel Marketing: Creating the Right Mix for Your Brand

There is a fine line between an omni-channel marketing strategy and a messy social media presence, and it’s crucial that brands stay squarely on one side of that line. Now that social media has declared its power and is here to stay, there is no need to push your content and message on all channels at once. Good omni-channel marketing tailors content to specific channels and personalizes it for the buyer persona appropriate for that channel. You don’t have to be everywhere at once, but you do have to be several places authentically. In this webinar, you’ll discover that omni-channel is more than a marketing buzzword--that it’s an opportunity to personalize your brand story for more customer loyalty and trust. Join us as our marketing experts discuss: The balance between shouting your message across channels and tailoring your content for specific channels; Tools to help you manage omni-channel marketing campaigns; How to use customer journey mapping to better understand where and how your customers are active; And how omni-channel can work not just in sales but also in listening, customer care, and analytics.

The ROI of Influencer Marketing

In the age of authenticity, there’s no greater tool at a marketer’s disposal than influencer marketing. Consumers no longer blindly trust advertisements. Instead, they trust influencers whose judgment has a proven track record. Done right, influencer marketing can communicate a brand’s culture directly to a target audience in a real way. But how do you justify investment in an influencer program, and how do you measure tangible results? How do you go about finding influencers to engage with in the first place? What are realistic goals to set? Which metrics matter and which are simply vanity metrics? In this panel, our experts will discuss: Why influencer marketing is one of the most effective marketing tools How to find talent that is brand-appropriate and also aspirational What kind of business goals to set with an influencer program How to track and understand metrics to measure a program’s effectiveness

How Does Social Listening Change the Way You Do Business (and Create ROI)

You can’t do social marketing well if you aren’t nailing social listening. If you’re crafting and executing a social strategy in a vacuum, your results will probably be equally hollow. The thing is, consumers are on social right now, talking about your brand or talking about issues that are important for developing and selling your products or services. Are you listening to them? Are you listening across platforms? Are you gathering your results from all areas of social? Are you taking that data and and using it to re-formulate your marketing approach? If it sounds like a lot, it’s because it is. But it’s not impossible with the right know-how. Join us as our panel discusses: How to know what to listen to and when; Strategies for integrating social listening into your marketing approach Ways to aggregate listening across platforms How to turn listening data into actionable insights for your business plan

Predictions for 2016

It’s easy to let the holiday season bog your organization down in the influx of sales campaigns, but make sure you don’t miss out on forecasting trends in marketing for the coming year. January offers brands a chance to reformulate their marketing approach to fit the new cycle of innovation and tech trends. To that end, Social Media Today ends the year with a webinar that focuses on what’s to come in 2016. Where will live-streaming apps take us next? How important will mobile be? What if you don’t have a video strategy? What will be the next wave of startup innovation? How should the enterprise pivot in the face of unexpected challenges? Join our panelists as we discuss: - Predictions for trends and changes to come in social marketing in 2016 - How to use these predictions to shape your social strategy - And which innovations from 2015 will continue to grow in the coming year.

It's Who You Know: Influencer Marketing Now 12.10.15

With viral word-of-mouth recommendations outpacing traditional advertising efforts, there’s no greater buzzword right now than influencer marketing. Yet most influencer marketing news focuses on B2C brands, ignoring the fact that influencer marketing is just as important an investment for B2B companies. In this webinar, we’ll use a B2B case study to look at ways your small business can leverage experts in the field for a better company both internally and externally, from content creation to relationship building. Join us as our panelists discuss: why influencer marketing is a crucial way to stay relevant and informed in your industry; how to find context for your brand and a place to start looking for influencers; a specific case study that will give you ideas to start your own program; and tips for measuring results and determining ROI of influencer marketing.

Is Social Media Worth Multi-Million Dollar Investment? Using Social Listening...

There’s no greater quest in social marketing today than the quest to determine the ROI of social media. CEOs and CMOs want to know exactly what the financial investment is earning them in return, and who can blame them? There’s been a massive rush to the social space, but without a strategy for proving ROI, you can quickly find yourself knee-deep in tweets you don’t know what to do with. Specific goal-setting can help determine what kinds of social interactions to pursue, and understanding the value of social listening could change the entire shape of your organization. Social listening might not directly lead to sales all the time, but, used correctly, it will always lead to a better relationship with your customer. Join us as our panel of experts discuss: What the social media landscape looks like today and how ROI changes with it. The inherent value in using social media to expand your reach, and how to measure those benefits. Why social listening is the anchor of ROI. Examples of the kinds of goals to set for social campaigns and how to determine their success.

Making the Case for Employee Advocacy at Your Firm

December 1, 2015 Webinar: In the age of employee advocacy, your brand can be as powerful as your workforce is enthusiastic. If your workforce is motivated, engaged, and socially equipped, you can pull off an appropriate and successful employee advocacy program. In fact, if your organization is mid-sized and doesn’t have at its disposal the marketing tools larger outfits might have, internal brand advocates are often the most powerful and cost-effective marketing tool in your arsenal. Our new report on the current state of employee advocacy finds that 64% of advocates cite a workplace program as the reason for attracting new business, and 45% can directly attribute new revenue streams to formal programs. So while you might not be able to dedicate an entire team to implementing a program, it's good for business to assemble your core of informed, active, and proud employee advocates. A great employee advocacy program knows no size boundaries. In this webinar, join our panelists as they discuss: Statistics from our report, including why 84% of employee advocates say it's had a positive effect on their career; Why employee advocacy is word-of-mouth marketing at its best, and can give your brand an edge in the noisy marketplace; How to identify the most motivated and engaged employees and activate their personal drive on behalf of your organization; A content strategy that combines company and employee content for an authentic and relevant mix; And how to use employee advocacy to amplify your brand beyond the limits of its size.

The Future of Mobility: Is Personal Car Ownership a Thing of the Past?

2016 Trends for Influencer Marketing

In an age where marketing currency equals digital consumption, the content marketing game has never been more intense or competitive. And while we can’t all claim to be as viral as a scandalous Kim Kardashian photo spread, we can aim to create and curate content that speaks directly to our audience in a new and incredibly valuable way. In this crowded social landscape, your content must provide serious value to capture the customers’ attention, and must be uber-relevant to stand out among the noise. This webinar isn’t going to give you a magical content formula, but it will help you get into a mindset to design a content strategy that has the potential to “break” the hum drum normalcy of the Internet. Join us in this webinar as our content experts discuss: Why content is your organization’s biggest asset when it comes to earned media; Different content styles and categories, and how your business can produce in each; How to organize and execute a strategy, including defining your brand story, sticking to an editorial calendar, and understanding performance analytics; And what kinds of content lead directly to organization growth (and what that even looks like).

Behavioral Analytics: How Your Customers’ Behaviors and Profiles Can Shape Yo...

If you’re like most marketers, you’re facing a conundrum: sales demands are just as high as ever, but traditional marketing has long lost its momentum. Marketers are scrambling for ways to add value for a potential customer without seeming intrusive or clunky. Luckily, companies that commit to a social presence have mounds of data to help them out, and a particularly important area of data is behavioral analytics. Looking at data that only includes your brand mentions is one thing, but looking at the way your customer behaves online--whether it directly involves your brand or not--can help revamp your lead generation and conversion process. But what kinds of behavioral analytics should you be looking at and exactly how do they lead to insights about your sales cycle? How do you move from numbers to targeted marketing? In this webinar, we’ll discuss: Which tools and platforms will help you gather analytics data and wade through analysis; How to identify behavior that tells you where your potential customer is most susceptible to being converted; The difference between aggregate and individual analysis, and pros and cons for both; Why integrating behavior analytics into your marketing strategy is key to finding new sales opportunities.

Enterprise Social: Segmenting Your Data For The Best Customer Experience

10.20.15

This year, Entrepreneur said, “the future of new business is social selling.” Statements like that are easy to get employees excited about at first but it can be difficult for companies to maintain that momentum if it doesn’t yield immediate results. Consistency and sticking with it, however, is key to social selling success. So how can you build your social selling dream team and increase your company’s investment in the process? There are a few tips and strategies--such as breaking down silos between sales and marketing as well as getting the C-Suite involved --that can refresh your team’s approach to social selling and help close deals with greater regularity and ease. In this panel, our sales experts will discuss: -How to unite your sales and marketing departments so that your social efforts are supported company-wide; -How to train and internally motivate your team for better morale and better external results; -Why the c-suite needs to be involved and how to involve corporate leadership sales initiatives; -Social selling strategies that focus on authentic and well-researched relationship-building.

It's time to pay attention to millennials: a quarter of the total U.S population is made up of millennials and nearly 85% of them own smartphones. If you aren't targeting at least some of your marketing efforts towards this demographic, you're probably missing out on huge opportunities. You must create a marketing campaign for the audience you have, but also the audience you want. Yet what if your brand isn't naturally geared toward millennials? What exactly is a millennial? And won't this marketing strategy shut out other demographics? And how do you speak "millennial," anyway? In this webinar, learn from our expert panelists: -How to make sure your content strategy is mobile-friendly for all demographics -Tips and tricks on spinning the content you already have for the millennial audience -Ideas for shaping a new content strategy that will appeal to a younger mobile audience -Information on where B2B intersects with millennials, and why it's important to reach out to that demographic to scale.

To deliver value in today’s business climate and with a new generation of consumers, marketers are increasingly learning that ‘old tricks’ and predictable branding games – might not get the desired impact. Join Nichole Kelly, CEO of Social Media Explorer as she unveils a bold look into how most brand actions can be grouped into 13 'game groups’. These game groups are not all equally well received. Nichole is joined by Pernille Bruun-Jensen, CMO of NetBase, as they review the power of a new Marketing approach that resonates, brought to life through deep dives on brands like: -Nike -Mercedes-Benz -Dollar Shave Club and -Dyson Get the tips on how to get your brand ready to win the hearts and minds of today’s consumer – a more savvy consumer than ever.

10.8.15

There’s a reason offices spaces are becoming more "open" these days. Siloed departments are a thing of the past. If your marketing department and sales department aren’t talking to each other and collaborating, you’re doing something wrong. If you don’t have social informing every department, you’re going to be hard-pressed to see significant ROI from social, or improve the customer experience. The very nature of social media requires that it crosses boundaries and informs all campaigns and marketing efforts and customer touchpoints. But it’s difficult to make that happen in your company simply by taking down cubicle walls. You must also set up infrastructure within your organization that allows for convenient communication, and you must invest in the right tools and platforms that are flexible enough to move with your prospect and customer initiatives instead of rigidly defining them. In this panel, we’ll gather experts to discuss: -Why integrated social is the only way to go if you’re going to become a social business -How to measure social ROI when it encompasses many departments and strategies -Tools and platforms that can help your organization stay socially agile -How a thorough dedication to social across your organization can help you scale and grow at a manageable rate -The kind of internal methodology needed to integrate a social-centric approach

10.6.15

It’s true: your best brand advocates are coming from inside the company. Are you leveraging the reach and authentic enthusiasm of your employees? Identifying and mobilizing your employees are the first steps to putting in place a solid advocacy program. But a crucial last step that isn’t often talked about is measuring results and tweaking your program. In this webinar, we’ll talk to experts from brands that have measured the effectiveness of their advocacy programs to identify what’s working and what could work better. Whatever stage of implementing your program you’re in, it’s important to understand how to tell if your efforts are making a difference for your brand’s reputation in the market. In this webinar, our panelists will talk about: -How to set up your employee advocacy program with clear goals and KPIs while also remaining agile; -What parts of your program you should be measuring; -How to turn data from your program into results that tell a story; -Which tools will help you consistently measure your results in a clear, helpful way.

9.29.15 webinar

In an era where your customers’ attention spans are close to that of a goldfish, you have no time to waste in your marketing efforts. Customers will only respond to campaigns that fit seamlessly into their digital life, and they’ll only respond to content that is uber-relevant to their needs and desires. At the same time, you need to be meeting your own internal KPIs and consider your company’s relevance across media and trends. Anchoring your strategies in the place where audience desires and brand goals overlap can transform your marketing from digital noise to personalized, appealing content. Additionally, taking inspiration from events can make your campaigns useful as they toggle online and off. Approaching each campaign with a set of CX principles will ensure that your company remains relevant as the needs and desires shift. But where should you begin with all of this? In this webinar, we’ll discuss: -Finding the sweet spot where customer desires, industry trends, and brand goals overlap and using that to guide your marketing efforts; -Ways to create narratives for your campaigns that move seamlessly from online to offline and back again; -How to discover what kind of content is relevant for today’s online consumer and how your products or services can fit into it; -How to develop a system of marketing campaign principles that will allow your campaigns to stay fresh and creative.

If your company isn’t analyzing the millions and millions of megabytes of social data out there, you’re way behind on the game. And if you’re using that social data simply to measure numbers that don’t really say anything about your company’s value in the market, you’re doing it wrong. So what should you be measuring, and how should you use what you measure to improve your company? In this webinar, we’ll identify the kinds of social metrics that can be useful for your company, and discuss ways to use those numbers to improve the only thing that really matters: your customers’ experience. But moving from hard numbers to a top-of-the-line customer experience isn’t an easy process, especially if your company doesn’t already have a system in place. Join us as our panelists discuss: -The areas of social--including Twitter, blogs, and forums like Reddit--that you should be leveraging to gather information; -What kinds of data to look at to determine how your brand is perceived and interacted with; -Which tools and platforms work best to filter the data in a meaningful, readable way; -How to use that data to predict your customers’ desires and proactively provide value to them before they know they need it.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management. The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM). Speakers: Bob Boule Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle. Gopinath Rebala Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor Turskyi

Fwdays

I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024

Tobias Schneck

As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other? Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
