by Hareesh TibrewalaTRANSCRIPT
Social Media Marketing is a misnomer
It is actually about Marketing in a socially connected world
Or better still
How a should a business manifest in a socially connected world
Or It is about
Making Business Social
And this the key issues businesses need to address
Social Media is not just a Brand Manager level issue.
It is actually a CMO issue, a CPRO issue, a CHRO issue, a CFO issue
Social Media is a CXO issue
Conversations are happening… within the organisation and outside the organisation
Conversations result in communities Communities have more intelligence compared to
individuals (or organisations)
We need to learn the tap the collective intelligence of the internal communities
Human beings thrive in chaos. And within chaos we create order
Facebook is chaos. Group and pages within FB are order.
Like minded people converge at these locations.
And this results in Group Dynamics
In the same fashion, organisations need to create internal social networks, resulting in
Group Dynamics
And Group Dynamics result in Collaboration Knowledge Sharing Bonding Brand Advocacy
