Transforming User Generated Content into Social Media Capital




                    WHAT IS CITIZENGLOBAL?
                     We help brands and agencies drive new levels
                      of Social Customer Engagement through our
                    Social Video Creation Platform and Technologies.

Consumers are generating video content at
unprecedented levels. YouTube alone gets 48
hours of user generated video uploaded every
minute..and the numbers keep growing. This
video content, however, is rarely monetizable
due to it’s low quality and lack of context. To
date, brands have also struggled to ‘organize
this chaos’ and leverage user-generated videos
in delivering authentic and valuable brand
content and social currency without multiple
resources and significant marketing spend.
Moreover, the content creators themselves
haven’t been motivated to produce this quality,
brand-ready content.


“We (brands) must realize the days of controlling the message are

absolutely over. And at best, you will be invited in and you’ll get to

participate and co-create with consumers...through (user-generated)

content creation, consumers are driving the conversations... There are 146

million YouTube videos with Coca-Cola mentioned/shown and only 26

million were created by Coca-Cola.”

Wendy Clark, SVP, Integrated Media, The Coca-Cola Company. June 2011

    Transforming User GeneratedContent into Social Media Capital WHAT IS CITIZENGLOBAL? We help brands and agencies drive new levels of Social Customer Engagement through our Social Video Creation Platform and Technologies. Consumers are generating video content at unprecedented levels. YouTube alone gets 48 hours of user generated video uploaded every minute..and the numbers keep growing. This video content, however, is rarely monetizable due to it’s low quality and lack of context. To date, brands have also struggled to ‘organize this chaos’ and leverage user-generated videos in delivering authentic and valuable brand content and social currency without multiple resources and significant marketing spend. Moreover, the content creators themselves haven’t been motivated to produce this quality, brand-ready content. “We (brands) must realize the days of controlling the message are absolutely over. And at best, you will be invited in and you’ll get to participate and co-create with consumers...through (user-generated) content creation, consumers are driving the conversations... There are 146 million YouTube videos with Coca-Cola mentioned/shown and only 26 million were created by Coca-Cola.” Wendy Clark, SVP, Integrated Media, The Coca-Cola Company.
