Key Things to Remember
• It’s social– A key feature is online democracy – with content being provided
by the network for the network – represents a fundamental and revolutionary change in online behaviour, expectations and the online customer experience. The end of the ‘read only’ internet. Conversations are taking place relevant to your business
• Power shift– Social media empowers customers, empowers the network.
Recognizing this shift is the cornerstone of future success. Customers increasingly rely on the network for information
• Declining effectiveness of traditional approaches – Does anyone listen to sales/brand messages anymore?

Key Things to Remember
• Pull v push– Customers decide what information they wish to access
• New ‘mindsets’ are required– Marketing as a conversation with your customers/network–
dialogue not broadcasting– But this is something that most of us are not very good at doing.
We prefer ‘telling’ people• SM ‘winners’ and ‘losers’
– ‘Winners’ will be those organisations who fully utilise the interactive power of Web 2.0 technology for engaging with and energising customer and network relationships

Barriers to SME Exporting
Barrier Role of Social Media (SM) Psychological Barriers
Domestic rather than global orientation SME participation in social/professional networking sites & forums helps to develop a more global ‘mindset’
Short-term perspective Effective use of SM speeds up the SME internationalisation process delivering quicker ROI
Lack of commitment to exporting Active participation in SM promotes greater awareness and enthusiasm for ‘going international’
Exporting seen as ‘too risky’, too time consuming
SM significantly reduces internationalisation costs and risks
Fear SM builds SME confidence in operating internationally
![Page 32: Social media export session march 2011 v4 final](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110118/554b4c06b4c905b5378b549e/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
ENERGISE2-0.COM
Barriers to SME Exporting
Organisational Barriers Limited resources (financial, management time etc)
Use of SM as a low cost, but very effective, global marketing, communications and international networking platform
Lack of foreign market knowledge and understanding
Use of Social Media Monitoring Tools for export market research; country screening; identifying overseas sales opportunities
Lack of internationally experienced personnel Leverage ‘crowdsourced’ knowledge and experience; online virtual community for SME exporters
Lack of formal training in export marketing Potential for SM supported International Marketing training and management development
Sources of competitive advantage abroad By reducing international costs and risks, SMEs become more price competitive
Problems in finding the ‘right’ overseas agents/distributors
Use of SM to identify and build relationships with foreign market intermediaries; alternatively, by facilitating direct to customer relationships, SM helps to dis-intermediate the international supply chain
![Page 33: Social media export session march 2011 v4 final](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110118/554b4c06b4c905b5378b549e/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
ENERGISE2-0.COM
Barriers to SME Exporting
Operational Barriers Export documentation; management of export operations; language problems; payment delays/risk
Use of open source software and hosted applications to improve operational efficiency and reduce costs. ‘Crowdsourced’ help and support through networks/communities
Product/Market Barriers Product/service may not be suitable for foreign markets; costly product adaptation required
Knowledge gained from Social Media Monitoring supports decision-making in this area
Limited resources available for country market screening/export market research to identify the most attractive foreign markets
Use of SM for export market research; direct to customer relationships reducing the need for country screening
Tariff & non-tariff barriers to trade Social Media Monitoring and participation in social/professional networking sites leads to greater understanding and awareness of barriers to trade
Profitability of exporting By significantly reducing costs and risks, SME exporting becomes more profitable

SMM and SME Exporting
• Lack of foreign market knowledge and limited resources for export market research/country screening are two of the main barriers to SME internationalisation
• Used effectively, Social Media Monitoring tools can help to overcome these barriers
• Can also support a ‘NEW’ approach to internationalisation

Use a Simplified Balanced Scorecard
• Will ensure that the social media actions and initiatives you take are fully aligned with and supportive of your overall business goals and objectives; that KPIs are agreed for monitoring and evaluating social media performance, business impact and ROI; and all key success factors are considered, especially the organization, people and resource aspects critical to successful strategy implementation
• A Scorecard approach can also be very useful for internal and external communications – a simple framework to present social media goals, objectives, key actions and initiatives to colleagues, partners and other stakeholders
