Archetype Detection in

First Person Consumer Stories

“…Blogs are like conversations with friends. You share what you feel and what excites you about certain things. It's almost as good as being there. The fact that others can Google your topic and read is like tuning into a television station.We all want to know what's out there. Who's doing what, shopping where and what products help others. Blogs are just another way to share all the great things, not so great things and just a part of who we are. An outlet if you will. The blogisphere community is all connect and we make contacts in many ways. Through posts, through twitter conversations, through smaller nit community's, live web casts, and through conferences that we met in person. We make many friends and help each other with lot of topics. Many of us are Mom bloggers who stay at home and have no way of making new friends or communicating with others until we found blogging. Blogging creates friendships and that's what makes us real and connected”.

40 year old Mom blogger “nightowlmama” (#260)

Relationships # Technologies

What happens when you tell stories? Two magical things: You build trust with other people in your network, and from there you build empathy…is when you share the emotions that other people have and express. It’s a powerful, deeply primal experience.

Social Media Marketing Practice is not Conventional Marketing

“a many-to-many mediated communications model in which

consumers can interact with the medium, firms can provide

content to the medium and, in the most radical departure from

traditional marketing environments, consumers can provide

commercially oriented content to the medium.”

Hoffman & Novak, 1997

8. "We were walkable to many good bistros, cafes and bakeries and only a few blocks from the wonderful market street Rue Cler."

9. "I bought a Paris Pratique pocket-sized book at a Metro station. This handy guide has detailed maps of each arrondisement, as well as the metro lines, the bus lines, the RER and the SCNF (trains). I'll never be without this again."

10."Six months before our trip, I gave Paige a couple of good guide books on Paris and suggested she let me know what her interests were since after all, this was to be her trip."

12. Unforgettable Memories"This trip had so many memories, but here are a few choice highlights........On our very first night, knowing that the Eiffel Tower light show started at 10:00 p.m.... she [Paige] dropped her camera…down 6 flights…we were stunned…SpanishFamily below standing below [with pieces of the camera]”

15." Michael Osman is an American artists living in Paris.""He supplements his income by being a tour guide." I" found out about him on Fodors""So I engaged Michael for two days."

16. "On our trip to Giverny, we met a young woman from Brisbane, Australia who was traveling on her own and we invited her to join us. Three of us enjoyed delicious and innovative soufflés, while Paige had the rack of lamb. We shared two dessert soufflés, one chocolate and the other cherry/almond. Yum"

17. "I wanted Paige to get a feel for shopping experiences that

she would not have at home (aka the ubiquitous mall). "

18."We went on Fat Tire's day trip to Monet's gardens and house in Giverny, about an hour outside Paris."

13."The father stretched out his cupped hands which held all of the pieces they were able to recover, including the memory stick and he very solemnly said, "El muerto...".

Marketing & Advertising Strategy Implications from Paige’s Story

• Story told in natural city setting • Assume Paris = brand• Brand is supporting actor enabling Gayle to achieve her goals of

showing Paris to Paige (conscious) and help her coming of age (unconscious)

• Builds favorable consumer brand relationship: best friendship (Fournier 1998)

• Show someone Paris: Share experience,teacher-student,”fairy-godmother” or be the tourist guide

• Use social relationships to sell cities• Interpersonal relationships (people travel with people) • Near conversational interaction with brand:

story is called “I love Paris”

Sponsored Content ads, in which individuals viewed a holiday page that was “brought to you by” a leading brand, were the most engaging but produced the least purchase intent of the 7 ad types tested.

Corporate Profiles on social-networking sites produced greater purchase intent and more recommendations when users could become a fan and add the logo to their own profiles than when they could not.

Give and Get Widgets in which individuals could create and customize something (a car or a dinner menu) and then either send it to a friend (“give” widget) or keep it for themselves (“get” widget) were more engaging than traditional banner advertisements but no more likely to produce an intent to purchase.

Above conclusions held across brands (a leading soup brand and a leading car brand) and publishers (on Allrecipes.com and on Facebook.com), but like traditional ads, widgets had increased success if the brand was relevant to the website (i.e a soup brand on a cooking website).

Measuring Tips• Use URL shorteners like http://bit.ly

– These services track the number of clicks.– If you post a link on multiple social media sites, associate a

unique short URL with each site. This can help you to determine variances in your community members across sites.

• Get addicted to Google Analytics– Tracks top referral sites – including social media– Number of unique visits– Average amount of time per visit– Bounce Rate– Can help you develop metric benchmarks for envisioning

success

Social Network Representation• Primary focus is actors & relationships # actors & attributes

• Nodes (Actors) connected by Links (Ties/relationship or edge)

• Links represent flows or transfer– material goods or information

“Elegant Organisation”You don’t start communities. They already exist. They’re already doing what they want to do. The question you should ask is how you can help them do that better. Bring them “elegant organisation”.

Serve customers through listening and responding to needs vs marketing or advertising.  Focus on launching and growing the community through:  Invite creators and influencers to become charter members of the community Create evangelists through providing exclusive access to new information, attendance at pre-launch party and have them provide feedback for future initiatives

Start community with conversations and have community manager encourage sharing stories of problems, overcoming issues and successes Ensure community can be readily found with links from web sites, blogs and other popular social media. Accelerate community adoption through existing marketing efforts including emails newsletters and create a sense of urgency.
