1. Social Network
Consolidation
• Networks will continue to merge
• Even if not
acquired, technology will
continue to offer cross-
sharing, posting.
• Data will be shared cross-
network allowing for better
targeting.
• Smaller networks will lose out.

however, it is enough to expect a greater

people will read what you write.”

In 2008-2009, Dell, had been able to track just over $6.5 million in sales from promotions run exclusively via the tweet. The $6.5 million is the product of 100 employees tweeting in 35 different channels reaching customers in over 12 countries; Brazil Twitter users have spent over $800,000 in the last eight months. For a company this large and with so much effort behind it, the number sounds less impressive but still… Anyone out there taken advantage of a Twitter deal from Dell?

My Starbucks Idea – Starbucks’ own version of a social network where customers are asked to share their ideas on anything related to Starbucks. The site gives users the ability to see what others are suggesting, vote on ideas and check out the results. This site is a brilliant and important aspect of Starbucks social media strategy. Users who are part of this network feel that they have some role in the decision making process of the company and it makes them feel a part of it.
The Fiesta Movement, Ford‘s recently six-month social media experiment put a new Fiesta car in the hands of 100 “agents” (members of the public) to drive and review using Twitter, Flickr, YouTube, and blogs. Fiesta Movement was a huge success. The 700 videos produced by the agents have generated 6.5 million views on YouTube, and there have been more than 3.4 million impressions of Fiesta Movement on Twitter. Even photos taken by the agents have been viewed more than 670,000 times. When it comes to word-of-mouth marketing, those are serious numbers. As Scott Monty, Ford’s head of social media said while creating buzz from Fiesta Movement was certainly important (more than 50,000 U.S. consumers who interacted with the movement said they wanted more information about the vehicle, and 97 percent of those do not own Ford vehicles), equally important was the customer feedback on design and engineering issues that the Fiesta agents have delivered. This was particularly important given that Ford was introducing this version of the Fiesta—a European car—into the U.S. market for the first time.

How does Social Media work?Before Social Media, one person’s restaurant experience might be conveyed to their neighbors, parents, and co-workers.There are only so many people that one person would be in contact with to even be able to chat about a particular business or experience.
After social media, each person’s network will see that individual’s comments, suggestions, and possible endorsements of a company.
What does this mean? Companies no longer have control of the bulk of what is said about them. Across social networks, rating sites like Yelp and Citysearch, people are creating messaging that is outside the traditional realms of marketing – TV, Radio, Newspapers, Billboards. More importantly, these personal contacts are much more influential than traditional forms of Social Media, so each and every one of you can affect someone, and help to positively influence the Spark Energy message. Today, you are part of the message, and you are part of the conversation!
Regulated Monopoly – why do you care about improving customer satisfaction/sentiment? What do complaints cost? What does it cost to avoid the complaints? Aggregated still costs company – goodwill, etc. Youtube – Social Media ROI Calculation, Salesforce.com
If you hold true the notion that being responsive to online customer questions, complaints and feedback is an essential core tenet of good social media marketing, then you should consider your response time a valuable success metric. Being fast (and first) to respond to the online conversation, particularly when it turns bad, is a critical component of online customer service and an engaged social business.The fast food industry certainly appreciates response time. The word “fast” is in the description of their market segment. Those computer monitors that hang from the ceilings behind counters at McDonald’s, Chick-Fil-A and the like primarily display the orders yet to be filled, but secondarily also flash how long it has been since the order was placed to keep the staff focused on their basic unique selling proposition: fast.I took a few minutes to plug several restaurants into Expion, an enterprise social media management solution focused on franchise and multiple location businesses. They are a client of mine and their back-end analytics offer a pretty amazing ability to pull information about your competitor’s activity on Facebook and Twitter and allow you to compare, analyze, etc.Looking across a landscape of fast food offerings including McDonald’s, Wendy’s, Chick-Fil-A, Burger King, Tim Horton’s, Hardee’s, Arby’s, Subway, Quizno’s, Panera Bread and A&W, we find some interesting correlations. For the time frame of Jan. 1 through Jan. 17 of this year, Wendy’s, Pizza Hut and Chick-Fil-A all had average first-time responses under 1:30. All three have over 1,100 fan posts on their wall. No other restaurants were close in fan post volume. One could correlate that the more responsive a brand is, the more engaged their fans are.Wendy’s has an astonishing 20-minute response time to over 6,000 posts (17.6 percent of the 37K posts in the first two weeks of January). Of course, the restaurant’s FryForAll promotion and application accounts for the lion’s share of their posts, but still. Some 225 entries on Wendy’s Facebook page have been deemed negative by Expion’s keyword filters and the restaurant is there to offer a response.Pizza Hut is victimized by Facebook Wall spammers quite a bit and doesn’t seem to do a very good job of moderating or controlling the issue. They responded to nine percent of all fan posts in about 1:15. Their response to the negative posts, however, was just 24 minutes, so nice steppin’ up.Chick-Fil-A has an impressive 37.2% response rate for all wall posts — highest among those I looked at. They also responded to 56 percent of those deemed negative (behind Quizno’s, Subway and Arby’s). But only Quizno’s matched their 55 minue response time. It took Arby’s almost 11 hours.

Be professional online. Scott Bartosiewicz, a social media marketing specialist was stuck in traffic, and was running late for work. He intended to post a note to his personal twitter feed, but the application he was using allegedly had a glitch, and he instead posted this message to the official Chrysler Autos twitter feed. Within a couple hours, hundreds of thousands of people had heard of the flub, and it even made mainstream media coverage.In the same way, watch the type of information you post personally, because even though you may not accidentally post to the official Spark Energy channels, please be aware that what you post can still reflect upon your company.
This particular Twitter posting came back to bite James Andrews from Ketchum (New York office) who made some unflattering remarks about Memphis this morning before he presented on digital media to the worldwide communications group at FedEx (150+) people. Not only did an employee find it, they were totally offended by it and responded to the agency person. The kicker is that they copied the FedEx Coporate Vice President, Vice President, Directors and all management of FedEx’s communication department AND the chain of command at Ketchum. Mr. Andrews, the Ketchum presenter, did not take into account that many FedExers are native Memphians and are feircely defensive of their city and their company.
Always be transparent when posting online, especially when speaking engaging when referring to competitors, and when speaking about Spark Energy.In 2009, a man named Michael Bayard posted a job on Amazon’s Mechanical Turk – a website for posting small jobs like transcribing videos, etc.The job requested that people look up specific Belkin products, and rate them favorably, whether they had owned or even used them, or not.Upon doing some research, a blog discovered that Mr. Bayard was a Business Development manager at Belkin, simply by searching for his name on LinkedIn.
Belkin ended up having to have the President apologize for the activity, Mike was fired, and amazon deleted the fraudulent postings – you’ll see that one of the products today still has a large majority of 1-star ratings. His lack of transparency, along with his request for others to disguise their motives resulted in a huge blunder for Belkin, and it exists today as one of the largest examples of someone trying to sneak around the system.
Have a Break video Greenpeace had produced on Wednesday I didn’t foresee how Nestlé would manage to fail on such an epic scale on their social media management.Following the email action, hundreds of activists became fans of Nestlé on their Facebook page and then hit their wall with messages clearly stating they weren’t fans, they just wanted Nestlé to sort their palm oil sourcing out.Whoever was managing the wall for Nestlé must have had a bad couple of days – they posted a comment telling people if they mashed up their logos and posted on the wall their comments would be deleted.
