SMX East Everyone is Wrong about Influence. Except Your Customers.Valeria Maltoni
What is influence? For a decade, Malcom Gladwell’s "The Tipping Point" has served as a touchstone for those who believe that influence resides in the hands of a select few. Not so, says a new generation of marketers. They believe that thanks to the democratizing power of the internet, anyone can be an Influential. Both camps are wrong. True influence flows from drawing together people with shared interests. This session focuses on the process of identifying areas of relevancy among your customers and prospects, building community, and allowing others to amplify your influence as you meet their needs.
John Bell examines the fundamental shift of social media on consumer behavior – and how adapting to it and profiting from it require an enterprise-level strategy.

Digital Commerce Lecture for Advanced Digital & Social Media Strategy at UCLA...Valters Lauzums
E-commerce in 2024 is characterized by a dynamic blend of opportunities and significant challenges. Supply chain disruptions and inventory shortages are critical issues, leading to increased shipping delays and rising costs, which impact timely delivery and squeeze profit margins. Efficient logistics management is essential, yet it is often hampered by these external factors. Payment processing, while needing to ensure security and user convenience, grapples with preventing fraud and integrating diverse payment methods, adding another layer of complexity. Furthermore, fulfillment operations require a streamlined approach to handle volume spikes and maintain accuracy in order picking, packing, and shipping, all while meeting customers' heightened expectations for faster delivery times.
Amid these operational challenges, customer data has emerged as an important strategy. By focusing on personalization and enhancing customer experience from historical behavior, businesses can deliver improved website and brand experienced, better product recommendations, optimal promotions, and content to meet individual preferences. Better data analytics can also help in effectively creating marketing campaigns, improving customer retention, and driving product development and inventory management.
Innovative formats such as social commerce and live shopping are beginning to impact the digital commerce landscape, offering new ways to engage with customers and drive sales, and may provide opportunity for brands that have been priced out or seen a downturn with post-pandemic shopping behavior. Social commerce integrates shopping experiences directly into social media platforms, tapping into the massive user bases of these networks to increase reach and engagement. Live shopping, on the other hand, combines entertainment and real-time interaction, providing a dynamic platform for showcasing products and encouraging immediate purchases. These innovations not only enhance customer engagement but also provide valuable data for businesses to refine their strategies and deliver superior shopping experiences.
The e-commerce sector is evolving rapidly, and businesses that effectively manage operational challenges and implement innovative strategies are best positioned for long-term success.

84. Problem: Help people get comfortable using Twitter. To gauge public opinion of Super Bowl ads, we created Brand
Bowl. By monitoring Twitter on Super Bowl Sunday, we were able to identify the most and least liked spots. And in doing
so, we made a statement about the power of social media, conversation and community participation.
Led to winning Zappos,
Timberland, Olympus, Jet Blue
85. Make: An interactive experience to augment a broadcast. For National Geographic Channel’s TV special “Live From Space,” we created
an interactive experience unlike any other. LiveFromSpace.com synced up with the International Space Station and allowed visitors to see
exactly what was happening down on Earth. Visitors could explore the top iTunes songs, YouTube videos, Twitter trends, Foursquare check-
ins and more in any country around the world. Explore a world with no boundaries and no borders – just like the astronauts.
Emmy Award Winner
86. Context/Experience: Tie into media event; make it experiential. To get people talking about Century
21, we created a Craigslist “for sale” post for the home of Breaking Bad character Walter White. We
peppered the property description with subtle, insider plot details, and included a working phone
number that connected interested parties with an outgoing message from CENTURY 21.
Cannes gold lion;
One Show gold pencil
87. Developers, social media strategists, UX designers, digital animation,
art and copy all working together, sitting near each other, being equals.
88. The days of having a creative idea then throwing it over the wall to
the dev and asking them to make it digital are over.
111. Instead of absorbing basic knowledge about all the other
skills beyond your area of expertise, find one or two and
become an expert at those as well.
It will help you become more of a recombinant thinker and
increase your value to any action oriented creative
organization. Go learn about drones, augmented reality,
wearable technology or personal robots.
Become an expert at something other than art and copy.
You’ll make better contributions to open ended assignments
and be more sought out as a member of the new team.

henever I start a conversation about Twitter with someone who doesn't use it --
or who tried it, but never got beyond the inane act of twittering some
insignificant detail of his daily life -- I get eye rolls, throat clearing and other
signals that suggest I should change the subject.
But if I start a conversation about Twitter with someone who has taken the time to use it, I
get the exact opposite response: an instant conversation about fresh ideas, emerging
thought leaders, newly revealed content and trends in social media that comes at me faster
than an overcrowded chat room.
I am in the latter camp. For me, Twitter is not another Facebook. It's not about connecting
with lost friends or letting your virtual posse know what you're up to. It's not simply a
source of breaking news à la US Airways Flight 1549. And despite the fact that it blows
Google away as a real-time search engine, even that barely begins to describe Twitter's true
potential.
Instead, I've found far greater benefits to incorporating Twitter into my life and onto my
desktop. Here's what Twitter's given me:
1. INSTANT ACCESS TO THOUGHT LEADERS in social media, digital
trends, technology and marketing in the new age of community. They're all here: the staff of
Wired, the lead strategists at the next generation of agencies, the pioneers of social media
itself. Not just the expected names like @crowdsourcing (Jeff Howe) or @johnabyrne
(BusinessWeek's digitally proactive editor) or @henryjenkins (MIT's director of comparative
media studies) or @jaffejuice (Crayon's Joe) but a new generation of even younger social
media enthusiasts. Most of them are remarkably generous with their knowledge, willing to
answer questions, share ideas, even give away their content.
2. AN OPPORTUNITY TO EXPERIENCE CROWD SOURCING IN
ACTION. Conduct a brainstorming session in your own agency and you're pretty much
limited to the usual suspects. But on Twitter there are thousands of people willing to help
out. And because no one pays attention to seniority or title, new voices are more willing to
express an opinion that more often than not is both fresh and provocative. I'm constantly
surprised where the quote or thought or insight or example I'm looking for comes from. But
it's always to be found.
3. A NEW WAY TO CONNECT WITH MILLENNIALS. We live in a society
that does its very best to isolate generations. But because a Twitter relationship centers
around content, information and ideas, it erases differences in age. I'm now connected with
college students in New York, Austin, Boston, Chicago, Atlanta and Miami. Many of their
blogs are far more telling than another research report from Simmons or Forrester. And all
of them are willing to make me smarter about how marketing has to change if it's to connect
with a generation defined by community, collaboration and responsibility.

Four lessons from Mullen’s first
Chief Innovation Officer
Back in June 2009, Edward Boches became the first Chief Innovation Officer at
Mullen, a Boston-based ad agency that works with household names like
JetBlue, Adidas, Google, and Zappos. Immediately, like every new CINO, he
set about figuring out how he could have the most impact. (Worth a read is his
post on that topic, “What does it mean to be a chief innovation officer?“)
We asked Boches to distill a few of the lessons he learned; he’d previously
been the agency’s Chief Creative Officer, reporting to CEO. When he shifted
over to the CINO role, he still reported to the CEO, Joe Grimaldi.
Cajole & inspire. “My initial objective was to get the company to pull its head out of its ass with regard
to digital and social media, encouraging people to use Twitter, and trying to inspire people to get
inventive with new platforms. We needed to make sure we had a leadership perspective on what
these things could do for our clients.” His team created Brand Bowl, a way to capture the public
opinion expressed on Twitter about Super Bowl ads. He circulated experiments like the music video
that Google made with the band Arcade Fire, to get the agency’s creatives to “understand what was
possible with these new technologies.”
Engage the young ones. Boches looked for ways to give younger employees a louder voice and
higher profile within the agency, since they tended to be the most enthusiastic adopter of new social
and mobile technologies. He created a public site called The Next Great Generation, edited by a
twenty-something Mullen employee and focused on the interests and concerns of the Millennials. All
of its textual and video content was crowdsourced from a network for college students and young
bloggers. A 2011 philanthropic project, Good Belly, was conceived almost entirely by the agency’s
twenty-somethings. The project invited diners at participating restaurants to snap a photo of their
meal using the Instagram mobile app, and mention where they were eating it. Every time they did
that, the restaurant would donate $1 to Unicef’s famine relief efforts in East Africa. “When you put the
25-year olds in a room, and don’t let their senior managers in, there’s much more experimentation
and courage and collaboration,” he says. “They were fearless.”
Acknowledge reality. “At every company, you are going to have people who are afraid, or who are
actively obstructionist. And that’s because in every business, your self worth is defined by being an
authority, the size of your office, your title, and knowing more about what you do than anyone else.”
So introducing new social media tools and technologies, Boches says, involved plenty of one-on-one
coaching — “making it un-intimidating, showing them how to log in, how to use a hash tag.”
Generate business. “There were really no metrics that we adopted” to illustrate whether Mullen’s
innovation initiatives were bearing fruit. “It was more about changing the culture and mindset.” But
Boches helped create new materials that spotlighted the agency’s growing digital capabilities when
its partners went out to pitch new business. “We ended up winning seven or eight new clients as a
result of that,” he says. “Our social media activities were one of the reasons we were on JetBlue’s
radar, and my own blogging and tweeting helped us get in the door with Google.”
As in every business, it never hurts to show that the innovation team can move the needle on revenue.

Mullen chief innovation officer Edward Boches to visit Newhouse Oct.
26
How do we resolve the need and desire to control brands and messages with the equal need to let go and invite
participation? The ramifications affect how we change our mindsets, our company cultures, teams, briefs and creative
output.
Ask Edward Boches (@edwardboches), chief innovation officer with Mullen, who will visit Syracuse University’s S.I. Newhouse School of Public
Communications on Wednesday, Oct. 26, as a guest of the Newhouse Global Leaders in Digital and Social Media Speaker Series. He will speak on “The
End of Us and Them” at 6 p.m. in the Joyce Hergenhan Auditorium in Newhouse 3. His talk is free and open to the public. Parking is available in SU pay lots. Follow the
talk on Twitter at #NewhouseGLDSM.
Boches is one of Mullen’s four original partners. Over the last 28 years he has helped define the agency’s creative standards, established its public relations group,
integrated digital design and production into all of its operations and launched its growing social influence practice.
In 2010, he gave up his long-held position as chief creative officer to become chief innovation officer. In his new role he focuses on emerging technologies, social
platforms and changing consumer media habits to develop innovative ideas for clients and to influence the agency’s ongoing transformation.
Mullen is ranked third on Advertising Age’s “Agency A-List” and has created innovative integrated digital and social campaigns for clients like JetBlue, Zappos, Google,
Barnes & Noble and Olympus.
Boches is a frequent speaker on industry and consumer trends. His blog, Creativity_Unbound, is part of Advertising Age’s “Power 150.” He is a member of the board of
Boulder Digital Works and Spring Partners. He incubated and continues to support http://thenextgreatgeneration.com, a crowd-sourced Gen-Y blog.
The Newhouse Global Leaders in Digital and Social Media Speaker Series explores innovative digital and social media engagement from around the world. Speakers
represent leadership in thought and innovation in their fields.
For more information about Boches’ talk, contact Betsy Feeley at (315) 443-7401 or eafeeley@syr.edu.
