Overview of social media
• Combination of social interaction and web technologies to:
• Communicate, engage, develop and be part of communities
– Internally and externally for organisations• Create and share content and information across networks• Build and extend networks through interaction• Listen and participate in discussions, threads and develop
ideas and relationships• Learn from community (crowdsourcing)
Benefits of social media
• Listening– Crucial to hear what the public is saying about you
• Both positive and negative– The web now operates in real time – Brands need to hear what is said about them
in real-time• Engage with Customers
– Once you know what is being said about you – you can then interact directly• Community Advantage
– Build real communities online and offline– Build long lasting relationships and trust with customers– Instant polling and research opportunity with customers– Reduce customer acquisition costs– Increase customer retentions
Associated risks
• Loss of control of the conversation– Two way communication– Openly negative transmissions
• Using social channel as a marketing or PR conduit• Broadcast as opposed to engagement
• Can be a difficult persona for brands to adopt– Reveal a human voice of a corporate identity
• What it is that voice?
• Starting – and then not following through – Inevitable criticism
