The document discusses social media strategies for brands. It addresses 5 challenges: measuring ROI, the changing importance of content, social media ownership, metrics, and commercial vs engagement goals. It provides examples of measuring ROI from an integrated Angry Birds campaign. Content alone is no longer king; context is important. Social media is too important to be restricted to marketing and should involve other departments. While many metrics can be measured, not all should be. The 5 W's framework of what, who, why, where and when is recommended for determining key metrics.

This new engagement now correlates to every aspect of our business and has a tremendous impact on brand. To succeed in today’s digital age, digital marketers need to use content to continually engage their audiences— from the first time we meet them, on through the entire customer lifecycle. The job of marketing is no longer to just acquire customers but to create passionate subscribers to our brands.

Transforming Employees Into Brand AmbassadorsLauren Friedman
According to the 2014 Edelman Trust Barometer, customers trust the average employee 2X more than a chief executive. Many brands are overlooking one of the most valuable types of advocates — their employees.
Social media gives brands an avenue to do much more than market and advertise. In this new era, our connected customers expect more from us. Social media allows us to deepen customer relationships and becoming a true social business requires all employees.
In this session, Adobe’s Head of Social Business Enablement will walk you through the ins and outs of Adobe’s social media employee training program, Social Shift, as well as the activation programs that take social media training to the next level. By infusing social media into every aspect of the way Adobe does business, we empower and enable all Adobe employees to be active on social media both personally and professionally.

Webinar: Leverage Digital Marketing to Grow your Agency's Retainer-Based Busi...Optify
Digital marketing services like SEO, social media and content marketing present a huge growth opportunity for agencies. In fact AdAge reported that digital revenue for agencies surged 16.4% in 2011 to $10.1 billion. Moreover, digital specialty agencies led all other agency segments in terms of growth in 2011, despite a weak economy. Digital services not only represent the largest growth potential for agencies, they are also ideal candidates for retainer-based contracts -think predictable monthly revenue, better resource planning, long-term customer relationships etc.
So how does your agency grab a share of this digital marketing revenue and convert one-off projects into retained services agreements?
Download this presentation to learn:
- The digital opportunity for agencies
- Which digital marketing services are best suited to retained contracts
- 6 tips for moving from project to retainer
- Ideas for packaging and pricing your service offerings
One of three variations of social networking / social media presentations. All three are all very similar. However, each has a slightly different approach to explaining social networking.
Social Media Week 2012 - Fare Social Media Marketing nel B2B: si può? Freedata Labs
Ecco gli atti del workshop di Freedata Labs e SAP Italia alla Social Media Week Torino 2012. Una delle prime case history che racconta un’attività social media marketing di successo nel B2B in Italia.
An introduction from Adobe's Jeremy Waite on the future of social business, before welcoming Brian Solis to the stage for an exclusive Q&A in London on 12 July 2013 (view Brian's slides here: http://slidesha.re/13kKtIY)
Andreas Helios von Adobe Systems eröffnete mit seiner Keynote zum Thema „Die Transformation des Marketings“ den zweiten Tag des Werbeplanung.at-Summit 2013.
Das Marketing hat oft den Bezug zum realen Leben verloren. Wir müssen auf die Wirkung und das Ergebnis zurückkommen, dann treffen wir wieder den Nerv der Entscheider“, sagt Andreas Helios, Marketingleiter Zentraleuropa von Adobe Systems, in seiner Keynote am zweiten Tag des Werbeplanung.at-Summit 2013.
Das digitale Marketing erlaube zwar eine starke Individualisierung und Messbarkeit, dennoch „sind die Kunden immer noch dazu gezwungen, Inhalte zu konsumieren, die nicht für sie zugeschnitten sind“, kritisiert er. Die User seien durch die Informationsüberflutung mit einer sehr schmalen Aufmerksamkeitsspanne ausgestattet. Die Konsequenz daraus – Helios zitiert dabei den Digital Index Report von Adobe aus dem Jahr 2012 – dass 97 Prozent der Seitenbesucher nicht konvertieren.
„Viele Unternehmen sind zufrieden damit, Traffic zu haben und vergessen aber, zu optimieren und den nächsten Schritt zur Conversion zu machen.“ Der Nachholbedarf in diesem Bereich sei „dramatisch“, sagt Helios. „Zwischen dem Markenversprechen des klassischen Marketings und die Realität bei der Transaktion klafft eine riesige Kluft.“
Big Data clever aufbereiten
Das Buzzwort „Big Data“ ist für Helios kein neues Thema, „wenn man vor zehn Jahren auf SAP-Konferenzen war, wurde bereits über die Bewältigung große Datenmengen gesprochen.“ Er plädiert darauf, Big Data nicht als Problem zu sehen, solange man es schaffe, Daten mit Erklärungsgewinn darzustellen. Über das „Urgestein“ von Big Data, die Wetterkarte, gäbe es ja auch keine negativen Stimmen. „Ziel ist es, die Informationstöpfe zusammenzuführen - nicht mit dem Ziel, die Person auszukundschaften -, sondern Personen mit den für sie relevanten Informationen zu versorgen.“
Helios plädiert dafür, in der gesamten Diskussion das Vertrauen in das Sammeln von Daten zu erhöhen: „Transparenz und Klarheit sind die wichtigsten Punkte. Sorgen Sie dafür, dass Ihre Kunden wissen, was Sie sammeln und wo sie dem widersprechen können.“ Seine abschließende Botschaft an die Marketingverantwortlichen: „Seien Sie relevant, testen Sie, messen Sie und machen Sie sich Gedanken über die Konversion.“

10 Secrets of Virtual Storytelling: A Guide For Better Online PresentationsJeremy Waite
To help everyone stuck at home and forced to work on their online presentation skills, I recorded an extended seminar where I share a collection of the best pieces of communications advice I have picked up from some of the best speakers in the world about virtual storytelling. These are the slides. Maybe you'll find them helpful.
Seminar link: https://vimeo.com/398317345 [86 minutes]
It's amazing what you can achieve in 1 year when you put your mind to it. Celebrating Greta's Nobel Peace Prize nomination and her 60th week of striking to raise awareness of the climate crisis, I collected a few powerful images that have inspired me over the past year. Perhaps they will inspire you too.
IBM has won more climate leadership awards than any other company, but hardly anyone knows what we are actually doing to fight climate change. So I wrote a 6,000 word whitepaper to show people what we've been doing.
But then I remembered that people hate whitepapers. So I created a GIF from these slides instead. (I posted an article with all the sources, links and videos on Linkedin article if you're interested).
A webinar I hosted on Thursday 26th October talking about the future of social media and dark data. As more customers switch to private messaging apps, brands are no longer in control.
This creates all kinds of ethical and moral challenges, not to mention the creative ones. Essentially, brands now need to provide more value than they capture. They need to give something useful BEFORE they ask for your personal details.
(85% of B2C consumer conversations in some areas are now on private messaging apps and not visible on public social networks)_.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
