I had the wonderful opportunity to speak at the Hootsuite event (#HootupSG) in Singapore recently. I started my presentation talking about the irony of the fact that people seem to consider me an ‘influencer’. I definitely take it as a compliment, but when I look back to the beginning of my journey (first personal blog launched 10 years ago, professional blog five years ago), I didn’t start with this goal. I started because I believe I’ve learnt a lot on my journey and I just really wanted to share my unique perspective, hoping it would help others along the way.
I was thrilled to be invited to speak at the Hootsuite executive breakfast - "Advocacy & The Bottom Line - How to Make it Work" in Singapore. Tackling the topic of social advocacy and employee advocacy, are you ready to change everything and focus on making the employees the stars of your business? #Hootsuite #employeeadvocacy #socialmedia #contentmarketing

What is content marketing?
It’s about creating content so good, it earns
the right to exist in your customers world,
where they are
Over time, you build their loyalty to your
brand and that’s when they buy from you
10. #HROToday@AndreaTEdwards
6 levels of content marketing
• Level 1 – What is it?
• Level 2 – We have a blog & social pages
• Level 3 – We have a blog & external contributors
• Level 4 – We ask employees to share content – but it’s marketing
• Level 5 – We help employees – nearly all of them – create content in
their own voice and then feature their insights on our site, demonstrating
their expertise as a way to incorporate their personal brands with our
corporate brand
• Level 6 – We have moved beyond our business and now incorporate the
entire ecosystem of our company – employees, customers, partners,
influencers, associations, and so on
Inspiration: OP|EN for BUSINESS!

about business transformation
It’s not something the marketing team
‘does’
