Developments portfolio of centres in Ireland include Galway, Laois, Parkway in Limerick, Letterkenny, Dundalk’s

57. Abair Leat
Abair Leat is the worlds first social network dedicated to a minority language - Irish. To drive the high
proportion of facebook users to the website we decided we needed to develop an app that would grab
the target markets attention and engage them, using a series of clips from popular movies such as
Toystory, The Kings Speech and Lord of the Rings, we dubbed over clips in Irish with hilarious
consequences! The user was then asked to answer a series of questions, to increase their chances of
winning, users were able to mulltiply their score by sending the app on to freinds, increasing the viral
reach of the campaign vastly.

81. how to make social media work for you
✓ Offer value - either through engaging content, previews, coupons,
prizes or offers. Recruit through games and daily prizes
✓ Achieve visability - stand out through engaging campaigns, use
popular references - make sure your campaign resonates.
✓ Be conversational - create a tone of voice that cuts through and
engages. It should be a dialogue
✓ Loyalty - build a loyal customer base to leverage organic spread
✓ Resource - be ready to respond to your customers and encourage
them to talk about your brand
✓ Commitment - be ready to make a commitment beyond a
campaign
✓ Integration - know how any other marcomm strategies will
integrate with your social media campaign. Are there other assets
(tools and content) can you leverage?
✓ Measurability - think about how you will measure success
Wednesday 3 April 2013
82. Some common pitfalls
Post too frequently. The recommended number of posts for brands is about 1 – 2 posts per
day
Not engaging with people in comments. Don’t forget that you have to engage with your
fans and respond to them – make sure you reply to people when they have questions, even
stupid ones!
Arguing with your fans. If you have an angry fan, answer unemotionally and drive the
conversation elsewhere
Delete negative comments. Never delete negative comments. Never, almost never...
99.99% never!
Running competitions against the sites rules. Don’t announce winners solely over
Facebook, ensure you have adequate terms and conditions, and a data policy
Not using applications/tabs. The best thing about Facebook is that you can create a
campaign that will drive and boost your community organically.
Sending your fans to your site Only. Sending fans to your site is not the best way of keeping
your community really active and sharing. Communities love videos and pictures, but if you
just send them links to your page only, that won’t do the trick (unless it’s really relevant
content), but always make sure to mix the content.
Not using Facebook landing tabs. Landing tabs are a very important part of your
Facebook page, and can make your page grow 40% faster.
