The quote’s from the digiAindra

“
subheader for this session,
started me wondering WHY open
brands are so frightened. exchange
But I guess a harangue is less
scary…but much less without
effective.
Recognize this still? From the gatekeepers
Mac launch in 1984 frightens

Social
media:
pure
par4cipa4on

people sharing content with people
creating content for people
people helping each other;
and bypassing traditional

marketing…like yours


digiAindra

traditional marketing was a
monologue marketers talked,
people listened (maybe)
people are tired of monologues, they want
dialogues
social network marketing is a
series of conversations

Can’t

avoid
social
media?

§  people can write whatever they want
–  that’s how you find what they really
think
–  that’s how you build trust
–  that’s how you improve
§  it’s a “referred pain”
–  social media doesn’t cause complaints
–  your lousy service does that
–  it’s just where the complaint is expressed
–  AND where it can be dealt with

1. “Conversation is
the new attention
People talking about your
message, whether physically Christopher Fahey &
or digitally, shows you have Timothy Meaney
A List Apart, April 19 2011
their attention…that’s what
we want: engagement

digiAindra

Of course it s
not always good
attention

digiAindra

This is the disgusting Dominos people video
If you really want to see it look here

And the reply from the CEO you can probably find
here, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dem6eA7-A2I
many think it’s not too authentic
The Australian counterpart, not too different, is here

2. Authenticity is
all

It’s a different issue, but a much more authentic apology,
and he gets in several plugs for the store’s address

and sometimes
it will be very
bad

This is Greenpeace’s viral video about digiAindra
KitKat and palm oil. You can see it here

Damage
control?

After Nestle got
YouTube to ban the
video (assuring
more uploads and
record views!),
Greenpeace had
their people ‘fan’
Nestle on FB…
where the
moderator
proceeded to abuse
critics, and delete

March

Damage
control?

After a couple of days, pages
of posts, the moderator went
quiet…and then apologized.

Really sad thing is that
apparently Nestle were trying
to remove the palm oil…but
completely failed to engage
the critics; to harness them;
to be seen to be trying hard

3. Engage don’t
enrage


digiAindra

So when the palm oil was
indeed dropped from KitKat,
it was seen as a victory for
Greenpeace, not a
http://www.greenpeace.org/international/campaigns/climate-change/kitkat/
responsible action from
Nestle

digiAindra

When things go wrong,
and they will, you have
to say sorry. And
hopefully have a policy
to show people that
they will be
recompensed

4. Make social
media a
megaphone,
for your brand
advocates

digiAindra

consider
aware
like
engaged
ready to
act Marketers have
ACTION talked about the
Sales Funnel for
loyal quite a while. And
started to see the
value of brand
advocate
advocates

Now we’re starting to realize digiAindra

it’s not a funnel…it’s a
megaphone to help
advocates get the word out to
others…the Social Media
Megaphone
consider engaged
ACTION
advocate
ready to
act
aware like

Social Megaphone


digiAindra

get that social
media megaphone
working
For you

This is a summary of the award digiAindra
winning campaign from
McCann Romania.
A perhaps high risk strategy to create uproar
in social media, and rekindle patriotism, by
temporarily repackaging a patriotic product
in the US flag.
