—Jack Dorsey

144. How Much Should I Spend?
All of the above things are free.
The thing you’ll spend is time.
145. Time
In this book, Clay Shirky
argues that we gave all
our free time to TV.
Give half an hour a day to
networking.
146. Networking
Set a goal.
In 12 months, you will do the
following:
1. make contact with 1-3 of the
people in your target market.
2. When you make contact, you will
tell them about content you created.
148. Content matters.
The magic wand rule: Social media offers
new ways to talk, not new things to say.
Social media is not a magic wand to make
a dullard clever or a bore interesting.
149. Know why you‘re creating content.
Content created for strategic
communications must be driven by clear,
specific communications goals. (That‘s true
for all strategic communications.)
If you can‘t write down your goals for
content, they‘re probably not clear and
probably not specific. (That‘s also true for
all strategic communications.)
150. Know your best social media voice.
• Journalistic
• Institutional
• Funny
• Scholarly
• Informative
151. What content will you create?
News and web aggregation.
Commentary-driven.
Echo-chamber content from other strategic
communications vehicles.
Comment-enabled.
Questions.
152. The content is targeted
Who will watch, read, listen to the content.
Do you want them comment? Pro-tip: ask
for comments if you want comments.
Do you want them share it? Where?
153. Know what will trigger content.
Identify specific events that will trigger
social media posts –
Media stories.
Other web posts.
News about the brand.
Events.
Other communications that can be repurposed.
154. Know when you will post content.
Create a content calendar to schedule
content.
Fill in the holes with timely posts.
Core posting patterns can be regular, but it
is more important to create content when
there is a story to tell.
Test different times of the day to deliver
content.
155. Know your strategic fit.
Will your content link to your main website
– and vice versa?
How will you cross-link between media?
Will you link to other social media?
Will you tweet all blog posts automatically?
Will you tweet in the morning and at night?
Who will respond to stakeholder comments
or questions? The content creator or
someone else?
156. Measure.
Create content for people but make sure it
is clear what you want them to do.
How will they find it?
Who are they?
Know before hitting ―post‖ what will be
measured and then it can be measured.
157. Do it right, and your only cost is time.
Do it wrong, and it will cost you money.
167. Now consider how your individual
smarts can work for a brand.
Every single one of your bookmarks can
appear on your website under the
heading ―What we are reading‖.
168. How it is done
Read a relevant article in the NY Times.
Save the article to Delicious bookmarks
Give it a unique tag: MyCompany.
The website searches Delicious for
anything tagged MyCompany and it is
updated automatically
185. On results
For most of the day, we’ve talked
about a few things:
Who are you targeting?
Where will you target them?
What content will you share/create
186. We can throw all kinds of analytics at
you from many tactics.
Things you can measure:
Links to your firm web site
Connections
Followers
Engagement
187. Measure the goal
Imagine a hockey game without nets.
When you’ve set a clear goal, you will
also be able to figure out how to
measure it.
191. What not to say
Share your connection.
When talking about your firm, a
client, competitor or any related
matter, share your name and
connection.
You should use your actual title and
an appropriate photo on your profiles,
which reach personal and professional
networks.
192. What not to say
Don’t share non-public,
confidential information or
opinions about clients
193. What not to say
Be smart.
What you publish will be online for
years to come and available to
anyone who searches for it.
194. What not to say
Use a disclaimer for personal
sites.
If you publish a personal blog, make
it clear to your readers that the views
you express are yours alone.
195. What not to say
Be wary of your tone.
The words we write have the
potential to embarrass someone. That
means ethnic slurs, personal insults,
or obscenity. Imagine the worst-case
scenario (a client reading your
negative blog post, for example), and
act accordingly.
196. What not to say
Always respect copyright and fair
use.
Just because you find a photo online
doesn’t mean you can use it on your
Facebook page, just as you couldn’t
use that photo in a print ad. Of
course, if you do share any content,
make sure you credit the source.
197. What not to say
Don’t download every app.
Be very cautious when installing any
application on your computer. If
you’re unsure about an application, a
link, a follower.

2nd law of social networking: you will share twice as much this year as you shared last year. Mark Zukerburg.
Social media is about word-of-mouth. Which is good.
Social media is about getting traffic and turning it into client. Coincidentally, so is every marketing tactic.
