Brand Building + Social Media = Zappos Example and Employee Advocacy - Fast.Fwd.Innov@tion - 0 views

  • Brand Building + Social Media = Zappos Example and Employee Advocacy
    • william doust
       
      Very inspiring change context - and see it with community building eyes - from the philanthropic sector ;-) enjoy
  • every year a culture book including testimonials of employees about how it is to work at Zappos.
  • Zappos tends more on spending money on employees than on media planning.
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • We invest the time and money into hiring and nurturing the right people, as many other companies do in their media planning - Brian Karma, Zappos director of creative services and brand marketing
  • you’ve got it in you DNA, whether you don’t: being able to implement the community management at all levels of a company, the 360 degrees process communities as Ross Mayfield explains, is more like an utopia for many companies that won’t be able to master the social media channel as Zappos do right now.
  • It’s one strategy that would work for any company,
  • not a company culture that many can afford to develop
  • the strategy is just smart: empowering people so they keep on being accurate and engaged with their customers to provide them with the best-in-class customer care, making people comfortable with buying shoes online and spreading the word thanks to the customer support.

  • The Buzz Starts Here: Finding the First Mouth for Word-of-Mouth Marketing

      Apparently the person who works tirelessly, giving respite, providing solutions - and being known for this is the ultimate WOM agent - spreader of the WOM contagion ;0)

      mouse over pink highlight - see who's the best contagion agent - buzz - Word of Mouth!
  • Call it viral, buzz or word-of-mouth advertising: Getting customers to spread the word about a new product through their social or professional networks is a hot strategy in the marketing world. Its proponents insist that the technique -- whether online or face-to-face -- is sure to boost a company's return on investment (ROI).

  • Who's the Leader? The study indicates that the spread of a product by word-of-mouth -- what the authors call "contagion" -- can and does happen over social networks. The study also indicates that marketers may need to re-think whom they identify as the best seeding points in their word-of-mouth campaigns.
  • Reputation Matters Physician 184 didn't stand out as a "self-reported opinion leader," but he did stand out in the second group. He was known widely in the local community because he was very involved with treating patients suffering from the disease, and worked tirelessly and closely with colleagues to solve problems and get things done
