Getting Help from “Friends”
• Instead of one-way corporate messages, companies are engaging customers to tell their stories to others.
![Page 5: Lecture 4 managing mpr activities](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051616/5538f371550346b4378b48b7/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Thought leadership
• Instead of telling people you are the expert, customers are engaged to think for themselves that you are the thought leader in the industry.
![Page 6: Lecture 4 managing mpr activities](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051616/5538f371550346b4378b48b7/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Getting People Offline
• Instead of generating virtual recognition, organizations are engaging people in a way that they need to come out of the social media for face-to-face interactions.
![Page 7: Lecture 4 managing mpr activities](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051616/5538f371550346b4378b48b7/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Let Them Play
• Instead of creating games on iPhone or Androids, marketers are engaging target customers in reality competition using 3G technology

Interactive Game Marketing
• Instead of offering coupons on print media, companies are actively drawing customers to their shops via interactive games on electronic outdoor media.

Augmented reality
• Instead of producing fancy tourist-attraction TVC, augmented reality apps are created for tourists to experience the movie setting on their destinations.

Traditional and Social Combination
• Having a fan page doesn’t guarantee popularity. Companies need to invest in traditional media to boost online traffic.

Community Engagement
• Marketers are now trying to build long term relationship with local community in a way that may seem unrelated to the business, but it’s the target audience they are after.

– Where (city, venue selection)
– How (why should media want to come?)

Who – Target Audience
• Once you know who your target audience is, the question to ask is: What do they care about?

Sponsorship

![Page 43: Lecture 4 managing mpr activities](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051616/5538f371550346b4378b48b7/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

Surveys and researches
• Survey can often bring your story to the news.
• Research is a sign of commitment that your
company is a leader of the industry.
![Page 45: Lecture 4 managing mpr activities](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051616/5538f371550346b4378b48b7/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Seminars and forums
• Companies often partner with a non-profit organization to organize seminars to position itself as an opinion leader.
• Another approach is to seek invitations from event organizers as speakers to their conferences.
![Page 46: Lecture 4 managing mpr activities](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051616/5538f371550346b4378b48b7/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
CSR Initiatives
• It is not only a MPR activity, some countries are making CSR a mandatory disclosure requirement on annual reports.
![Page 47: Lecture 4 managing mpr activities](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051616/5538f371550346b4378b48b7/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Certificates and accreditation
• These add to the credibility of your company as they mean something to consumers.
![Page 48: Lecture 4 managing mpr activities](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051616/5538f371550346b4378b48b7/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Spokespersons
• Your spokespersons represent your company’s
brand. Hiring celebrities is a quick way to appeal
your brand to the fans of the artist, but it’s not
sustainable.
• You have to “own” your spokesperson.
![Page 49: Lecture 4 managing mpr activities](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051616/5538f371550346b4378b48b7/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Social media
• It is an interactive platform between you and the customers.
• No 1 concern is content creation.
