#EveryoneIsDoingItWhyDontWe	




         @MelAttree
Understand the human dynamic.
<People> creating	


<People> sharing	


<People> talking!
Content!                Conversation!




           Community!
140 characters….. WOM in action.
It looks simple, must be
    pretty easy right?!
33% of Twitter users share opinions about
companies or products at least once per week.
 More so, 32% make recommendations while
      30% seek guidance and direction.	


                   - April 2010, Performics and ROI Research
9/10 stated that the most common reasons to
follow a brand on Twitter involved the ability to
    obtain direct information from a company.
#TheyAllDie	

Does it match your business objectives?
#WhyTweet	


• Content: Quality not quantity	

• Anticipate the feedback	

• Acknowledge people	

• Balance!	

• Effort in = results – exponential spread	

• Not an add-on, have a plan	

• If it doesn’t ‘fit’ or add value, don’t do it.
Hashtag #It
#Why	


•  Topic / Cause / Brand / Event tracking	

•  Not pre-defined	

•  Create your own, communicate that & the rest
  will follow	

•  Short and easy to recall	

•  Track & record, Twitter does not remember
“….Malcolm Gladwell, may think Twitter is a silly fad, !
 but the Gap logo case says otherwise, …And Malcolm !
thinks social media can’t bring social change. Tsk tsk,”!
=!
Points to consider

Write these bits down
Think differently!
Have a plan!
   Who? When? How?!

Cover your bases (register
         names)!
Listen!
Build a base FIRST!

Do your *@$! homework!
Build relationships!

     Find the fans. !
‘Engage’ the influencers. !
  Educate the curious.!
We are not robots!
Give info freely, !
 be transparent!
Anticipate situations!
Foster collaboration.!
Crowdsource feedback!
Match online interactions
   with REAL action.!
Help it travel!
Results take time!

Listen, evaluate  adapt!
The greatest problem in
 communication is the illusion
that it has been accomplished.”!
