    I am really getting to be a fan of the way South West Airlines does it. It seems to be a few employees from different divisions wielding the account. Sometimes is a link, sometimes a photo from an airport or event, sometimes it's just an observation. Point is, it has the personality of a person not "an account". I think Twitter has to have this quality for it to work. It has to have a personality or it is just more bullshit.

I'm pretty annoyed when all I get a re links to the business's blog through Twitter, but sometimes it's tough to post things unless it's a link. What do you guys think is a good way to use Twitter to help a business keep its profile up and grab those people who might not see them otherwise?

Behavioral Insider » Blog Archive » Targeting And Life Stages - 0 views

  • Well, one of the less-understood and -appreciated facts about online targeting in general, and behavioral in particular, is that behind site user activity data there’s a rich array of consumer data in third-party research which can be overlaid with your own data on user online behavior [to] yield whole new levels of understanding. One treasure trove for us is NielsenNetRatings. What Nielsen has done is study how people in different demographic ‘life stages,’ as they call them, actually have very unique group patterns of online behavior based on where they are in their lives.
  • vertical search data.
  • un that data against the Nielsen profiles and grouped them into separate categories.

  • life stage segments, called ‘New Families
  • earch activity patterns
  • keyword searches like say ‘Baby Stroller’ or ‘Toy Store’ or ‘Childrearing books’
  • ielsen’s broad life-stage categories.
  • search patterns
  • But the fact is that the more tightly you can segment specific behavioral patterns by demographic, the more effective smaller-focused buys will be.

    Need to find out what these segments are for cars and homes from my Nielsen rep.

What Marketers Can Learn from the Tomato Scare - Advertising Age - Digital - 0 views

      This is a perfect example of why the big agency model doesn't work. This would take a small, smart and nimble group to execute. By the time this made it thru the account planner to production to PR in a big agency, it's days and days after the fact. Marketers take floating sticky note - get smaller, smarter and faster.
