and how you roll out the plan

42. Justin Timberlake
“Yet
the
master
stroke,
music
and
marke3ng
execu3ves
say,
was
the
personal
touch
that
Mr.
Timberlake
brought
to
every
aspect
of
the
campaign,
giving
his
fans
the
impression
of
direct
contact
and
feeding
them
a
steady
stream
of
topics
to
amplify
through
social
media.”

44. Leap Motion
"We
wanted
to
wait
for
the
right
opportunity
to
show
it
to
people,"
Chief
Execu+ve
Michael
Buckwald
said
in
an
interview.
"We
did
private
demos
at
CES,
but
this
is
a
much
beFer
venue
for
us
because
we
really
like
the
idea
of
Leap
not
just
as
a
product
but
as
a
movement."

• These inputs AND the campaign concept
help prioritize resources, timing and the
implementation plan

48. Number Four:
Social media ≠ free media

49. <16%

50. <16%
There is very limited reach on Facebook without paid media.

51. 3 hours

59. There is no absolute right way, but these
five areas are a good place to start
1. Change the mentality
2. Strategic intent: driver/amplifier and
integration/orchestration
3. Think about a portfolio approach to your
network
4. A holistic media plan (social is not free)
5. Bringing the plan to life: operations
