[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Brands need to communicate to prosper.
Social media is… A type of online media that expedites conversation as opposed to traditional media, which delivers content allowing readers/viewers/listeners to participate in the creation or development of the content.
Social media is not… Social networking Social marketing
Social networking  is the building of connections among people who share interests, relationships or activities through a service such as a social networking site (i.e. Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter).
Social marketing  is another marketing type completely and has been around for ages. Social marketing is the systematic application of marketing, along with other concepts and techniques, to achieve specific behavioural goals for social good.
Social media Channels
The difficulty with social media is the choice of which tools and how to use them correctly.

You can: Send updates Create polls Post events Advertise the page Convert visitors to fans Facebook
FAQ: Should you set up a group or a fan page? Facebook
Groups:  Are you an organisation, charity or club? Groups allow bulk invites to be sent by admins and members. Groups are better for quick active discussions and attention. Facebook
Pages: Are you a brand, celebrity or event? Fan pages are visible to unregistered users and are indexed. Pages are generally better for long term relationships. Facebook
TIP: You do not need a Facebook account to set up a fan page.  In fact, doing it on its own is better because your personal account won’t be tied your promotional page. Facebook

Benefits of these tools
Social Media is not about replacing other forms of communications, but to supplement them.
Developing your strategy
Listen and learn: Before you start with social media you must... Observe your audiences’ social media habits Be aware of online dialogue related to your brand Look at your competitors’ social media footprint
If you’ve ever done a regular marketing plan, it’s similar. Vision and Values Objectives Audiences Channels Evaluation
Vision and Values:  An example: Vox Motus Vox Motus Vision: To thrill audiences with exceptional experiences
Vox Motus Values: Encourages and embraces new thinking in all areas of its work Aims to be creative and ground-breaking in every interaction Aims to create work of an exceptional standard Thrives on collaborative experiences Shares its passion for theatre
Objectives: Objectives should be measurable, achievable and specific. In social media, it may be best to think in terms of: Brand awareness goals Campaign-specific goals Relationships with users
The primary pilot project objective was to increase audience numbers, with a particular emphasis on 18-35 year olds, into the theatre to see Slick. Increase site traffic   Generate a ‘buzz’ around Slick. Encourage interaction between the target audience and Vox Motus once Slick  finished. Provide Vox Motus with the capacity to deliver future digital marketing campaigns of this style and scale for further theatre productions. An example: Vox Motus Vox Motus
Audiences and Channels: 25 For each audience, create a sketch showing: Your website Social media channels you wish to use The interactions between them
Create an architecture for each audience Vox Motus: Young People Vox Motus
28 Create an architecture for each audience Vox Motus: Professional Network Vox Motus
Understanding the options: It pays to reign in your efforts and concentrate on your existing strengths. Before doing anything, ask yourself: 1)  Does the strategy meet my objectives? 2)  Does it play to my strengths (use existing assets)? 3)  Is it good etiquette? 4)  Does it provide  value?
Measuring Success Tailor your measures to your program and objectives 32 Two main types of activity: Awareness building Seeking conversions (sales, sign ups etc)
Awareness Building Campaigns Measure depth of engagement, understand the audience Volume and reach (number of retweets, mentions etc) Demographic information Sentiment (is feedback positive) Level of engagement (how long did someone spend on your content) Measuring Success
Call-to-Action Campaigns Measure the number of conversions Increase newsletter subscriptions by 10% per month Number sign ups to an event Sales Website hits Measuring Success
Vox Motus:  YouTube 35 By the end of September 2008 there had been 2,850 views of the YouTube videos, with 1,925 alone for the main trailer alone. Target demographic of 18 – 35 year olds accounted for just over 20% of the total viewing figures. Over 50% of users found the videos through an embedded player on another website. Vox Motus
Vox Motus:  Facebook The number of Fans currently sits at 407. There have been over 5000 views of the Facebook page. The 18 – 35 target age range accounts for 90% of the total users of the Facebook Page. Vox Motus

  3. Traditionally We’ve learned about brands and companies through Word-of-mouth Press reviews Advertising Social media has elements of each of these
  4. Massive audiences, accurately targeted64% of Internet users access some form of social media Global social network usage is said to exceed email usage (Neilsen) In April 2009 the average Briton spent 22 hours 20 minutes using social media channels Social media enables us to target campaigns and qualify leads in a way that TV never could
  5. Increasingly the consumer wants to: Engage with… Listen to… Respond to… Learn from… Organisations (charities, businesses, government…) and each other
  6. About social media How to use Twitter, LinkedIn & Facebook for your business Developing an audience Developing a strategy Tools & applications
  7. “ Companies are desperately under-prepared to deal with the risks and opportunities associated with Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.”
  8. Social media begins & ends with listening. You need to enter the conversation to add value. If you’re not where the people are, you’re not going to get your message across. Positive engagement can snowball. Sitting on your hands just gives you sore hands. Engaging with social media is like openly dealing with customers in a busy village market. Everyone can hear what you say, and your charm, fairness and other ‘personal’ attributes matter a great deal.
  9. Some brands are still struggling with the power of social media. It’s not a fad, it’s a fundamental shift in the way we communicate.
  10. Social marketing is another marketing type completely and has been around for ages. Social marketing is the systematic application of marketing, along with other concepts and techniques, to achieve specific behavioral goals for social good. Social media could be a part of this campaign, but is not the basis of a social marketing campaign.
  11. Social media could be a part of this campaign, but is not the basis of a social marketing campaign.
  12. The difficulty with Social Media is the choice of which tools to use and how to use them correctly. There are hundreds of social networks and it’s tempting to start tweeting, blogging and poking because everyone else is...but don’t.

  14. Facebook is a social networking site where users can add friends and send them messages, and update their personal profiles to notify friends about themselves. Additionally, users can join networks organised by city, workplace, and school or college. 1 billion types of content shared every week More than 250 million members 59% users aged 18-44 As of Dec 2009, users over the ages between 44 & 62 went up 15% since 2008.

  15. You can: Send updates Create polls Post events Advertise the page Convert visitors to fans First steps: Ensure you have resources/time to add new content
  16. - Important for reputation management - Pages also allow stats, ads to promote page and have extra applications
  17. Twitter is a free social networking and microblogging service that enables its users to send and read messages known as tweets. Tweets are text-based posts of up to 140 characters displayed on the author's profile page and delivered to the author's subscribers who are known as followers. The average age of a Twitter user is 31, which has remained stable over the past year. MySpace is now 26, from 27 and for LinkedIn it is now 39, from 40. Facebook, however, is graying a bit: the median age for this social network site is now 33, up from 26 in May 2008.
  18. We’ll cover RSS feeds and analytic tools later in the presentation

  28. 1) Does the strategy meet my objectives? Does it meet my stated goals? If so, how do we measure it? 2) Does it use what we already do well? The most successful campaigns play to your strengths. If you have great content on your website that you’re giving away, fantastic. If you have a strong community offline, use them. If you can associate what you do with a major event, great. 3) Is it good form? Remember netiquette? Well its as essential as ever. Don’t irritate the community, or you’ll damage your brand. Take some time to understand the environment, and its ways, before venturing in. A good way of doing this is to start with a personal account and some low level activity, before launching your organisation's activity on the platform. 4) Does it create value? Its not good enough to announce: “We sell ball point pens, please come an buy”, on Twitter. People expect some value. Reward them with entertainment, valuable information, or humour. But remember (2). If jokes aren’t your strength, don’t waste your time.
