What’s this whole social media thing?
![Page 3: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
It’s not…
traditional marketing
![Page 4: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
It definitely isn’t…
advertising
![Page 5: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Social media defines the activities that integrate technology, social interaction and the sharing of
words, images, video and audio.
![Page 6: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
In other words…
Social media is a conversation that
takes place online.
![Page 7: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
It’s a conversation more people are joining every day.

Social media is...
Consumer-driven Transparent Engaging Inclusive Sincere
![Page 11: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
It isn’t…
Controlled Impersonal Exclusive Formal
One-sided

Conversations are easy. Why is social media hard?
![Page 13: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
!!!
![Page 14: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
So many channels. So many people
So many conversations.
So little time.
![Page 15: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
How do I decide what channels to use,
what people to engage, what conversations to join?
![Page 16: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Strategy ( a really, really good one)
![Page 17: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Like all conversations, the key to social media
begins and ends with listening.
![Page 18: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Step 1 Listen to yourself
![Page 19: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
You may not have a social media plan.
But you certainly use media.
![Page 20: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
What channels do you currently use?
Websites?
Direct Marketing?
Outreach programs?
Newsletters?
Email?
Phone?
![Page 21: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Ask yourself questions...
What tone do these channels convey? Who are my intended targets?
Am I reaching my intended targets? Do these channels reflect our mission? What overall message does my brand
communicate?
![Page 22: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Most importantly…
What’s missing? Where do these channels fall short? Are there people we should target
but aren’t? Online, are we passive participants or
active engagers?
![Page 23: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Goodwill of DC asked questions…
• Discovered their current messaging wasn’t targeting people like her (young women interested in vintage fashion)
• Shame, considering Goodwill has great deals on vintage wear
• Created a social media plan that targeted these women and gave Goodwill a hipper image
• More on Goodwill later
![Page 24: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Asking questions reminds you who you are and who you want to be.
It also indicates how social media can be used to complement your overall mission.
![Page 25: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Step 2 Listen to others
![Page 26: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
The conversation has already started.
Research before joining in.
![Page 27: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Start listening to…
Key public figures Mentions of your organization
Popular industry/ advocacy sites Newsgroups
Blog comments Organizations like yours
![Page 28: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Free listening tools…
Paid listening tools…
![Page 29: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Let’s get a closer look…

![Page 30: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
What attitudes define me and my issues?
What sites have the most activity related to my organization?
What kind of people do the most posting?
What other organizations and issues are these people connected to?
What kind of negative comments or misconceptions exist?
Ask yourself…
![Page 31: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
What will you discover?
Better understanding of your brand presence
Online communities you should join
Targets and influencers you should engage
Values you should promote
Attitudes you should change
![Page 32: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Step 3 Create personas
![Page 33: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Personas are…
Descriptions of individuals that represent your target.
They’re not real people.
Just archetypes that represent real people.
![Page 34: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Personas…
Help you identify potential character traits, personalities, habits and attitudes of your target.
This helps you create a social media plan of ideal scope and size.
![Page 35: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Create personas through listening.
But this time, not just online.
![Page 36: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Interview stakeholders in person...
Where do you go online? How much time do you spend there?
Do you comment? Do you initiate online conversations?
What social networks do you use? Would you feel comfortable if our organization joined you online?
![Page 37: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Step 4 Map your assets
![Page 38: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Social media tools aren’t really fee.
They cost time.
Sometimes, lots of time.
![Page 39: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
How many hours and how many people can I devote to implementing
a social media plan?
![Page 40: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Take note of…
Size and technical experience of staff
Volunteer base (long-term vs short term)
Time staff members can devote to social media
Content already produced that can be used on social media sites
![Page 41: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
This makes your social media plan…
Realistic Managable Achievable Efficient
And not the source of tears and anguish
![Page 42: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Step 5 Define your goals
![Page 43: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
You know your target. You know your resources.
Now, what do you want to achieve?
![Page 44: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Do you want to…
Build better relationships? Raise awareness about your cause?
Increase website traffic? Build up your base?
Inspire people to action? Increase donations?
![Page 45: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Keep track of goals with qualitative data…
Comments
New names added to email file
Increased donations Voting participants
Influential Friends
Content of keywords Increased webpage hits
Influential blogs linked to you
![Page 46: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Set benchmarks based on these metrics…
We want (n) positive comments per week on Twitter.
We want $(n) from our charity mall. We want (n) pagerank by a certain date. We want (n) people to sign our petition.
![Page 47: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Step 6 Clarify your message
![Page 48: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
How would I define my organization in a single, simple phrase?
![Page 49: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
We’re the smart fashion choice for hip young women.
![Page 50: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
That’s your message.
Have all your social media content reflect it.
![Page 51: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
This will make your message…
Focused and on point
Have a cohesive, unifying theme
Easily grasped by short attention spans
![Page 52: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Step 7 Select channels
![Page 53: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Ask yourself…
What channel best suits: My goals?
My brand story? My resources?
My target?
![Page 54: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)

We want to connect with animal lovers

Animal lovers love animal pics and stories
![Page 56: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Step 8 Join the Conversation
![Page 57: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
The rules of social media are not defined.
But there are a few tips to keep in mind.
![Page 58: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
1. Stay Transparent
• Don’t be evasive
• Always offer your full name, your title and your organization
• Be the first to admit vested interests
![Page 59: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
2. Keep It Conversational
• A blog post isn’t an annual report
• Write like you would write to a friend
• Ask questions
• Solicit opinions
![Page 60: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
3. Write What You Know
• Stick to issues relating to your organization
• Position yourself as an expert in your field
• Add real knowledge to conversations, not just another opinion
![Page 61: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
4. Admit Mistakes
• “Oops” happens
• Be the first to admit your wrongs and make them right
• Thank those who bring mistakes to your attention
![Page 62: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
5. Don’t Ignore Negativity • Negative comments are chances to turn critics into supporters
• Respond kindly and respectfully
• Understand concerns
• Answer questions
![Page 63: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
6. Trust Your Instincts
I knew this was a bad idea…
• If something doesn’t feel right, it probably isn’t
• Don’t just shrug and hit “post”
• Get other opinions on posting controversial material
![Page 64: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Step 9 Listen & re-invent
![Page 65: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Remember these?
![Page 66: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
Never stop using them to…
Find conversations to join Track responses to your
social media activity Discover what messaging
works, what doesn’t
![Page 67: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
After you listen, re-evaluate your strategy and focus on what’s working.
Consider dropping what isn’t.
![Page 68: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Re-Invention Zen… • Susan Reynolds started a blog chronicling her battle with breast cancer
• Once, she used frozen peas to lessen swelling after a biopsy and posted a pic on her blog and Twitter
• Community saw it as a light, human touch to tragedy
• Attracted to the powerful, unique symbol
![Page 69: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
Re-Invention Zen…
• Enter the Frozen Pea Fund
• Sought to promote humor and optimism while fighting cancer
• Integrated Twitter, Flickr, Second Life network
• Raised > $7k in first month
• Wouldn’t have happened without listening/ re-inventing
![Page 70: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Social media may be here to stay.
But the tools are temporary.
![Page 71: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
Remember Friendster?
• First big online social network
• Founded in 2002
• Gained 3 million members in first few months
• Quickly lost out to MySpace, then Facebook
• Now only popular in Asia
![Page 72: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
Who’s next? Who’s Next?
R.I.P. Facebook 2004 - ?
Our Beloved Twitter 2006 - ?

Stay ahead of the curve…
LISTEN
for new places where your targets are congregating
to murmurs of new technology
and continue to play
![Page 74: Advancedsocialmedia](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54bf84c34a7959f9718b47aa/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
