Create community
“We monitor in excess of 1,500 discussion threads a day on very specific topics where we think
we can add value to the conversation. It’s not possible to participate in all of the threads, but there are
ways to identify which conversations are the most influential, which ones have the greatest reach,
and those are the one in which we’re most likely to participate. We've also created a consumer
advocate community as well as a platform that we’ll be launching in a few weeks to support their
activities.”Marty Collins, Senior Product Marketing Manager, Windows Live, Microsoft

Case Study – Telstra – CALL MUM
“The “guilt” proposition of “Call Mum” wasn’t
resonating with the audience anymore. But while few
people were talking about ‘Call Mum’ online,
there were literally thousands conversations about
how parents were connecting online.”

Positive Response
I find this new Facebook centric approach much
stronger than their previous efforts. Where as the
previous campaign all felt like a dead end this has
some long term thinking involved.
Also the strategy of targeting mums who are new to
online is much better than guilting kids to call their
mum.
