Before We Can Talk About Social Media…

An Awesome Digital Presence
And What’s The Best Way To Engage?
But Wait!
So What’s The Secret To Great Engagement?
Habit #1: Keep It In Context Habit #2: Use Data to Drive Decisions Habit #3: Be Your Audience
Habit #1: Keep It In Context
The Trap Of Consistency
Context Is About Targeting
Context In the Digital World
These Two Things Are Not the Same
And They Are Definitely Different From This
Facebook Is Not Twitter Is Not LinkedIn
Different methods Facebook accepts long posts, inline images, and video Twitter is like Instant Messaging (but with a lot of people at the
same time) LinkedIn’s audience are business professionals
How to keep content in context Remember the audience of the social network. To whom are you
communicating? What do they want to read or see? Fit the format. Make the content relevant. If you are just re-posting stuff from
your website with links, you are treating social media like just another channel…
Tying Product Into Audience
Habit #2: Use Data To Make Decisions
Measuring Social Effectiveness
Infinigraph
Social Media Dashboards
SocialBro SproutSocial
Pick Your Tool
Critical Metrics
# of likesLength of conversation
Level of engagement with content by time
Performance of Key Influencers
Habit #3: Be Your Audience
Doing It Right: Coca-Cola
On average, at least 1 interaction per post
Interaction is conversational connecting the brand with the audience (multiple likes on the brand comments)
Not So Doing It Right: British Airways
On average, less than 1 comment per 5 or six posts
Comments are customer-service in nature, adding nothing to the conversation (not interactive)
You Can’t Engage If You Are Observing
Get Plugged In!
Doing It Wrong on Twitter: Coca-Cola
Notice the distinct lack of references to anyone
Coca-Cola is just using Twitter to distribute messages
No interaction…anywhere… (no RTs, no mentions, etc.)
Doing It Right On Twitter: McDonald’s
Lots of RTs and mentions Conversations with lots of
different users Direct responses:
“Glad you liked them! RT…”
Bonus Habit!
Habit #4: Engage Specifically
Find Your Influencers
And Get Them To Speak For You
A Final Note…
Social Has To Be Part Of Your “Digital DNA”
And Remember Who That Story Is About
Not “I”. Not “We”. But “You”.
“Our company allows you to…”
“Next, I’m going to… ” “We need to be able to… ” “What if I could show you… ”
“What you’ll be able to do is…”
“Next, you’ll be able to… ” “You need to be able to… ” “What if you could… ” “What you can do is… “
