All of this is creating a growing number of
conversations...
©2009 Paul Isakson
both in social media and in people’s real world lives.
©2009 Paul Isakson
Often, these conversations are of minimal importance
to marketing or your brand.
©2009 Paul Isakson
But sometimes, they are about, or are related to,
your brand.
©2009 Paul Isakson
Why does that matter?

Marketing in social media
is often narrowly viewed
and talked about as the
tools people use within it.

“(When it comes to social media) companies focus on the features, tools and technologies, yet fail to understand the behaviors of their own customers online. As a result, they miss the mark.”
Jeremiah OwyangSenior Industry AnalystForrester Research

”Companies approach social media in two different ways.
The first way, the companies focus on the features, tools and technologies, yet fail to understand the behaviors of their own customers online. As a result, they miss the mark.
The second type of company scans the seascape, and understands the fish they’re trying to reach. As a result, they are more successful in connecting with customers… and catch the big fish... Fish where the fish are.”

DON’T FOCUS ON THE TOOLS
©2009 Paul Isakson
The power of social media is found in the results of people using these tools – the creation of self-organized communities of likeminded people – making it a valuable way for businesses to inspire, inform, understand and connect with the people who buy their products and services.
