Thanks, Justin. And thanks for giving me this opportunity to share some thoughts around social media specifically, where we are today, and where we are headed. I’ll just say that it’s truly an exciting time to be working in this space. I know we’ll look back a few years from now and recognize the revolution that’s is going on today, not just in social media but affecting all parts of marketing overall.
Break this into three pieces. First, some context setting. The big picture about what is going on in social media and digital marketing overall. And that is THE NET from 1995… it’s what used to happen back then

We’re hiring…. Lots of social/digital minds needed!

So these numbers speak for themselves in terms of the ways that social media today has truly become infused into our culture. Over 7,000 tweets per second in the recent WomensWorld Cup final: USA versus JapanWhat’s really going on here? Even if you aren’t one of the many participants here, you have to ask yourself, why is all of this such a big deal?
We are on a journey. We like to say at Razorfishthat what can be digital will be digital. Certainly we see this in our everyday lives.From the way we receive television – digital cable… phones… entertainment… information…. Medical records…etc.
86% of mobile internet users (folks who use these devices) say they surf while watching TV. Gives marketers opportunities to extend beyond their :30 TV commercials, for example and continue the conversation around their brands.

And this is why we are seeing all marketing activities embrace social media. Certainly this is the true of DeVry and you will continue to be on this journey to represent your brand in the social media space.These assets didn’t exist just a few years ago.

Social is even changing the way colleges screen applicants. The University of Iowa is offering a $37,000 scholarship to it's MBA program on Twitter. Applicants must tell the university, in 140 characters or less, why they should be chosen. The university wanted to do something different because they wanted to change their essay questions which were not producing good results such as unoriginal answers. So they decided to try social media and more specifically Twitter, which would force the candidates to give concise answers about what makes them an exceptional MBA candidate.
I’ll add one more reason about why we should care.
Simply put, because traditional advertising isn’t working as well anymore. Some fairly provocative statements here about what people believe and who they trust (or don’t trust).
All of this provides an opportunity to think about ways to reach and engage our prospects and customers.
Playing games is one of the first known “social” activities of humans. We’ve been playing for thousands of years, using games as a mechanism to learn and share, and at the heart of this has always been community
Starbucks has tested revamping it’s loyalty program to make it into a “game” for their customers. Instead of just awarding points to frequent customers, they are giving “stars” based on consumption – the more stars a customer earns, the closer they get to “winning” the game – which rewards them with free drinks.
The “Mercedes-Benz Tweet Race to the Big Game” was the world’s first Tweet-fueled race, with four two-person driving teams placed behind the wheels of specially equipped 2011 Mercedes-Benz vehicles — each embarking separately from Chicago, Tampa, Los Angeles, and New York and converging at Cowboys Stadium outside Dallas. Competing for a pair of all-new 2012 C-Class Coupes, teams had the help of Twitter-savvy celebrities who, in the role of team coach, rallied online support for their assigned teams and raised money for charity in the process. It was a ground-breaking social media campaign that generated considerable buzz while raising $120,000 for charities. The Twitter race increased MBUSA's Facebook page fans by nearly 300% and established a Twitter following of more than 70,000. Videos generated about the Tweet Race were viewed 2 million times, rising to a number-two-ranking according to Advertising Age's tracking of pre-Super Bowl viral videos.
Challenges can be very motivating in the education space and certainly games are a tried and true method of learning. The Khan Academy is a non-profit that is looking to create free online education resources while using game mechanics to motivate learning They use simple game mechanics such as course maps, achievement levels, badges, points and leader boards to track progress, encourage participation and ultimately create a unique and memorable experience.
Providing new ways for participants to get involved
Beginning in January, Maxwell House announced a partnership with Rebuilding Together and came to Razorfish seeking our expertise in leading the digital and social strategy, creating, developing and ultimately supporting their philanthropic efforts as well as producing all of the necessary assets to make the campaign successful. The partnership became now known as the ‘Drops of Good’ campaign in which Maxwell House selected 10 community houses to receive grants for renovations of their facilities. The campaign evolved into a social-cause marketing program in which each of the 10 houses would be up for consumer vote for 60 days. After the voting rounds wrapped up, the top 5 community houses would receive $50K in renovations while the latter 5 would receive $5K. This actually ended in May and the winners are currently showcased on the .com site we designed (promotions.com did the build based on Kraft’s preference). (www.maxwellhouse.com) Consumers also have the opportunity to nominate their own favorite local charities for “Do Gooder” grants on Facebook. Each week until late September, MH will be choosing 5 charities to reward $1K grants too. This nomination piece lives on a tab here: https://www.facebook.com/maxwellhouse?sk=app_119816654761344 The results were fantastic with over 2 million consumer votes. The Facebook page grew to 160,000 fans in less than 3 months (this is also attributed to a paid media spend). The YouTube videos each received over ~20,000 views. And the website received over 2,200 comments (via Facebook comment plugin).
