1. The document discusses the divide between creative and analytic types in marketing and how social media presents an opportunity to bridge this divide through new measurement approaches.
2. Key aspects of social media that enable new opportunities for analytics include making previously hidden conversations and customer experiences visible through data capture and allowing deeper analysis through tools like natural language processing.
3. Examples are provided of how various companies have used social media analytics strategies, including developing engaging digital assets to drive word-of-mouth (NBC/SNL), implementing a holistic social strategy focused on customer engagement (H&R Block), and evaluating brand metrics based on customer behavior online (GMAC Insurance).

Implementing Social Marketing for business and communication, a remix of some previous ideas and some new approaches by David J Carr, Digital Strategy Director, Chemistry Communications
B2B companies are looking beyond conventional marketing communications and using social media to engage directly with their audiences, build trust and gather customer insight. But many companies are struggling to do this in a meaningful way. They’re prioritising marketing rhetoric over content creation, community building, and problem solving. This means that businesses are missing the opportunity to turn prospects into customers and customers into advocates. In this workshop, Text100’s Global Digital and Social Media Lead Jeremy Woolf will present the case for B2B social media and methodology for driving results. The delegation will then be split into four groups, each tasked with creatively responding to aB2B social media brief. Text100 experts will guide the groups, with each presenting their strategy back to the delegation.

View-Through Technology: Gaining Insight into DataBusinessOnline
View-through data enhancement enables you to answer these questions. Measuring the impact of content hosted on other sites is no longer a matter of impressions or Sphinns. We can directly measure the impact in terms of traffic, online sales, and conversions — and all of this can happen without a direct link. Join us and see how you can accurately attribute your online PR, social media, and off-site marketing efforts to ROI. And, gain insight into bookmarks and traffic generated through branded searches.
A terrific rundown of social media benefits, terminology, tools and real world stories featuring slides from H&R Block's own Social Media Director, Zena Weist.
In this presentation I will talk about the design of scalable recommender systems and its similarity with advertising systems. The problem of generating and delivering recommendations of content/products to appropriate audiences and ultimately to individual users at scale is largely similar to the matching problem in computational advertising, specially in the context of dealing with self and cross promotional content. In this analogy with online advertising a display opportunity triggers a recommendation. The actors are the publisher (website/medium/app owner) the advertiser (content owner or promoter), whereas the ads or creatives represent the items being recommended that compete for the display opportunity and may have different monetary value to the actors. To effectively control what is recommended to whom, targeting constraints need to be defined over an attribute space, typically grouped by type (Audience, Content, Context, etc.) where some associated values are not known until decisioning time. In addition to constraints, there are business objectives (e.g. delivery quota) defined by the actors. Both constraints and objectives can be encapsulated into and expressed as campaigns. Finally, there there is the concept of relevance, directly related to users' response prediction that is computed using the same attribute space used as signals.
As in advertising, recommendation systems require a serving platform where decisioning happens in real-time (few milliseconds) typically selecting an optimal set of items to display to the user from hundreds, sometimes thousands or millions of items. User actions are then taken as feedback and used to learn models that dynamically adjust order to meet business objectives.
This is a radical departure from the traditional item-based and user-based collaborative filtering approach to recommender systems, which fails to factor-in context, such as time-of-day, geo-location or category of the surrounding content to generate more accurate recommendations. Traditional approaches also fail to recognize that recommendations don't happen in a vacuum and as such may require the evaluation of business constraints and objectives. All this should be considered when designing and developing true commercial recommender/advertising systems.
