Editor's Notes
- #3 introduce in the next 60-70 mins not a ‘social media 101’ assuming that everyone knows what social media is and is either currently participating or seriously thinking about it events vs businesses (my focus was on businesses)
- #4 if you have a kink in your chain, social media can expose it fast and loud
- #5 Motrin found this out the hard way not understanding their target market any mom’s in the audience who wore a baby sling / what did you think meant it to be tongue in cheek came off as condiscending barrage of tweets, mommy blogger posts, you tube video follow ups
- #6 thousands of tweets (I will never buy again), youtube responses, mommy blogger outrage google search - their #fail appears in 1st page results google search - motrin moms and it’s all bad news RESULTS: Brought down site - Sent letter of apology through Mommy bloggers ISSUE: Not understanding your customer / A crack in your foundation is easily exposed through SM
- #8 how successful are you - I think we’re doing pretty good we have 250 followers you know
- #9 global economic downturn Wallets have gotten smaller Many businesses shifted from spending through traditional channels to ‘not spending’ through social media channels
- #10 every mag, newspaper, etc telling you how powerful social media is heard so many fantastic stories about social media business success Comcast’s success with Twitter, Blendtec’s amazing results with Youtube, Cokes millions of fans on Facebook business that have moved from obscurity to infamy, from hated to admired
- #11 BUILD IT AND THEY WILL COME Small business adoption of SM (fewer than 100 customers) doubles from 2008 to 2009 climbed to 24%, up from 12% in the previous year Over one-quarter (26%) of social media users, however, say it has fallen short of expectations. One-half (50%) of small business social media users say it has used up more time than expected. Some 17% say social media has resulted in allowing people to criticize their business. MORE PEOPLE THAT JUMP INTO SOCIAL MEDIA = THE MORE NEED TO STAND OUT!!
- #12 1. time, money, resource waster 2. hurt reputation 3. lose customers (annoy, shun) 4. lost prospective customers (to name a few) But there is a solution
- #13 hard work takes time just like losing weight - drives me nuts. How do I lose weight. It’s a process - exercise & eat well. But no one wants to do it. They want the silver bullet.
- #14 unlike traditional media, the company with the biggest pocket book doesn’t win you can’t buy your way to fame in social media best & most relevant ideas win
- #15 huge advocate of social media didn’t always used to be used to be one of those guys recognized the benefits fundamental shift in communications
- #16 millions of us using it we’re talking about what we like, what we hate with friend & family but also a new breed of connections
- #17 Peer recommendations top the list, trusted by 9 out of 10 consumers A: Who’s heard of tripadvisor (honeymoon)
- #18 not just talking about major news (Haitian earthquakes, Hudson plane, Iran Election) what our friends are doing who & what they’re following what they’re talking about whole lot of people spreading buzz about brands and events
- #19 providing a direct line of communication to the brands we know, love and hate with a smart phone or computer and a bit of passion share what we love and what we hate anywhere and anytime consumers are changing brands they’re actually building relationships with the people behind the brands
- #20 in fact, they may already be making the demands may already be creating hashtags may already be speaking about your business do you know what people are saying about you?
- #22 4 stages of the Social Media Strategy lifecycle internal - inward look at our organization before setting forth with a strategy (are we ready, framework = products/brands, customer, market) external - research / listening strategic - plan maint & meas - setting everything in motion & assessing if we’re on track continuous wheel which shows that it’s a never ending process
- #23 4 stages of the Social Media Strategy lifecycle internal - inward look at our organization before setting forth with a strategy (are we ready, framework = products/brands, customer, market) external - research / listening strategic - plan maint & meas - setting everything in motion & assessing if we’re on track continuous wheel which shows that it’s a never ending process
- #25 1. culture clash is one of the most common reasons for social media upstart failure 2. Emergence Marketing, around 60% of companies are not ready to engage with social media, let alone Twitter 3. 60-75% of companies are spying on their employee’s use of the internet whilst at work 4. If you cannot trust your employees to do the right surfing, then how can you trust them to engage in social media on your behalf?
- #26 Audience: Who here works in what you would consider a closed environment Audience: Which type of environment do you think social media works best within Audience: Why? 1. Get buy in from the top of org 2. Internal evangelist 3. Invest in training 4. Be realistic
- #28 which brands / products will you focus on which are your rising stars, cash cows, dead ducks? which geographical territories do you want to operate your strategy within? who are the customers you’re targeting? segments? goals? millions of people using SM / billions of conversations
- #29 demographics are important (sex, age, income level, industry, marital status) focus on life stage, needs, wants, desires, beliefs, values -> this is how we connect online understand beliefs, be specific

- #97 Mark Gillard, advertising manager 1.       Offered Free Oil Change Certificate through Twitter – The coupon had a 7 day expiration date – Used Hootsuite with a link to our website to access coupon (drove folks to our website) a.       Within 20 minutes 180 people downloaded coupon b.      Within 30 minutes I received a call from one of my store managers that a customer came in with the coupon and resulted in a $1,200 sale! c.       After the seven day period I analyzed the sales (using a special sales code that I put on the coupon to track redemptions)                                                                i.      Out of the 180 downloaded, 102 people actually redeemed the offer and the average sale was $79.00. (that’s $79 generated from a Free service! Indecently, I took the $1,200 sale out of that analysis as not to skew it)                                                              ii.      More important than the actual sales is the fact that 83% were first time customers to Sullivan! A woman tweeted that she hit a curb, got a flat and was stuck in Boston. She was in a panic because she was going to be late for a client meeting.  I responded and asked her to DM her phone number.  After finding out where she was, I sent one of our techs over from a nearby store, installed her spare and sent her on her way and she made the meeting on time. After her meeting she drove to our location had a new tire installed and she was on her way. She was so thrilled with the service that she still tweets about us and recommends us on a regular basis. She even sent a Twitpic photo of her tire being installed at our location.
