The Listening Side of Social Media | Halldin Public Relations - 0 views

  • there is one key task that must be done consistently in order to ensure social media success – listening.
  • Monitoring social media is different from measuring. Measuring, in effect, is determining quantity, but monitoring social media is establishing quality.
  • And the only way to do that is to listen and observe what is being said about your company and your industry.

  • Decide where to monitor. Where do your key stakeholders “hang out” online?
  • Listen first. Ogneva puts it perfectly: “Before you ever open your digital mouth, listen and observe the culture of the community, interactions between members, how influence is expressed, and even if there’s a particular vernacular.”

Content Marketers, Are You Listening? - 0 views

  • This isn’t rocket science, but it is more than just participating in social media for customer service purposes.  Listening is just that – listening to what is being said about your company, products, and industry.  What are customers, prospects, and influencers tweeting about?  What are they posting on LinkedIn?  What questions are being asked on Quora?  What is happening on Facebook?  What are bloggers writing about?  These questions can all be answered if you are listening!
  • Listening can lead to the following benefits: Help identify influencers.  By monitoring what is being said about X online, you will be able to identify thought leaders who consistently blog, tweet, and post valuable content for your target audience. Identify opportunities.  This is sort of obvious, but if your company is not listening, there will be missed opportunities in product development, customer service marketing, and on and on. Develop your personas.  Many marketers know that all effective strategies are targeted towards specific personas.  Smart marketers know that personas are more than simply titles.  By listening to what is being said only, you may be able to flesh out issues, pain points, interests, and goals that will add more life into your personas.
  • Now go listen and engage!  This is more of an important role than you may think.  And it takes time!  Joe recommended to our portfolio company that it should have someone spend about 50% of his or her time on listening and participating online.

  • Instead, marketers should listen and look for opportunities to solve problems. Zappos, an often used example of exceptional customer service, is known to proactively identify and support their customers via Twitter.

Branding is not dead, but the rules have changed | New Media and Marketing - 0 views

  • Are brands dead ?  Hell no !  Just ask Starbucks, Apple, MINI, BMW, Nespresso, Minute Maid among others.  They have adapted to the changing product and brand marketing landscape while others simply have tried to offer discounts to keep people brand loyal. They are listening to and, hold onto your  hat, actually talking with consumers via social media.  OMG !?  You mean that they actually understand that brands are media today ??  Yes

    Marketers are known for talking, not listening. That is not to suggest we have not used tools like focus groups, user surveys or other research instruments in the past. It's just that, in the era of the participatory web, listening is not an option; it is a mandate.
