14. Social media gives us a voice to directly address our “customers”.

15. Social media has changed the way we work across all departments at Keep Britain Tidy.

16. We have raised our profile and empowered people to become “brand ambassadors”.

17. People trust other people – not brands

19. Social media is not the place for hard sell – even of ideas.

20. Research your competitors – where can you fit?

21. Target people – don’t wait to be found!

22. Don’t assume people will be interested in what you have to say YOU are interested in what THEY have to say.

23. Act as a service to people - they can “use” us so eventually we are able to use them.

26. Encouraging interaction through various techniques:- Varied content, including pictures, videos, questions, statements, links etc - Previews / facebook exclusives - Show them that you value their responses - Lots of praise!

29. Search out people talking about your product / issue and respond to them.

30. We search out the terms ‘Keep Britain Tidy’ and ‘litter’ along with any current campaign issues so we can respond.

31. Try to appeal to the majority of your followers – niche tweets will be off putting.

32. http://useqwitter.com/ is a useful site as it tells you who has stopped following you – if you get a lot in one week look by through your tweets and try to assess why.

33. On twitter more than facebook people are more likely to act as “Brand Ambassadors” – including celebrities.

37. We haven’t found the use for a non-commercial brand.

38. Can geo-location services be useful for brands that aren’t consumer facing?

39. We don’t need people to “check-in” at our location.

47. Keep Britain Tidy was mentioned on twitter more than 100 times through #twitpick, mentions and RTs.

50. When we launch a new campaign digital and social media are incorporated from the planning stage.

51. We have an active network of followers that we continue to gain from.
