BUILDING (DEEPER) ENGAGEMENT
Social Media Relations: Everything Changes!? 11
Everything Changes
It’s about two-way conversations
You’ve to deal with more channels
We HAVE to listen and understand what’s said!
What about those negative comments and posts?
The game gets so much faster
Nothing Changes
You’ve to manage relationships
So it’s wires, print, broadcast – and social media
You already: monitor and analyze your media coverage
Not every negative comment means a crisis
Already forgot newswires? Look at trends over time
Awareness & Reputation
Thought leadership
Consideration
Building connections
Direct conversations with stakeholders
Research & Insights
Basic But Crucial:
What Are Your (Social) Media Objectives

analysis

objectives

and connections
Media will live – probably even stronger
than before
