Aquafutures International Conference
Seaworld, Gold Coast, Australia 2013
Social marketing eliminates the middlemen,
providing brands the unique opportunity to have a
direct relationship with their customers.
Bryan Weiner, CEO at Digital Agency 360i

With the new social business environment, we
are all learners.
These are my thoughts.
They do not constitute legal or business advice.
The social media landscape is changing as we
speak and will continue to do so.

Only 30% of Australian small businesses
have a social media presence - so far
65% of Australians use social media
- what are they saying about you and your
centre, business, quality of service?
- if you know, how are you responding?

The Way Forward -
Your 5 Point Plan

1. Generation C
“They live and breathe in social networks and
use mobile devices as their windows to the
world.”
Brian Solis, What's the Future of Business?
deswalsh.com
2. Be Strategic - 5 Key Points
Assess: where are your customers?
Listen: what are they saying?
Join the conversation - share, respond
Be transparent - (we're all learning!)
Get good at one platform, then add
another

What Platforms ?

4. Manage the Risk

5. Experiment
In this new environment of social business, we
are all learners
But it's the future we're in - so if we want to
survive, let alone win, we don't have a choice
So we are all experimenting - time to dive in if
you haven't, time to swim if you have
Keep the focus on your business goals and
creating great experiences

Social media policy for your business
Every business needs its own policy guidelines,
developed to fit the company's purpose, structure and
culture. To help while developing that, on my website Des
Walsh dot Com there is a basic template (feel free to
borrow and adapt) with some links to other companies'
guidelines.
Guidelines for social media participation

presenter's knowledge accurate and up to date.
Opinions and commentary about social media and business

experience and are provided for information and general
education purposes only.
The social media landscape changes on a daily basis and any
reputable social media strategist or consultant will tell you we are
all learning as we go.
Strategic and tactical social media decisions should not be made solely on

should be tested against the specific businessess's or individual's

is recommended that this be done in consultation with a suitably
