SOCIAL MEDIA STRATEGY Q1 / APRIL / 2013

FIRST THINGS FIRST: • Who am I?
![Page 3: Robert Farrington_Quantum NAB Social Media Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5445a340afaf9fdb2a8b45ed/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

I’ve created content for brands like:
And I created one of the top brands in the scientific crowdfunding space:

That means I’m really good at building brands through social media, content marketing, creative copy and storytelling. That’s probably why you care who I am.

Ok. Got it. But why am I here? I’m here - we’re here - because Quantum’s going to the NAB.
![Page 6: Robert Farrington_Quantum NAB Social Media Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5445a340afaf9fdb2a8b45ed/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

More specifically, we’re here to:
• Increase Awareness
• Drive Web Traffic (Lead Gen)
• Push Attendees to the Quantum
booth (Lead Gen) • Create Brand Advocates

So how are we going to deliver on these goals? We’re going to live up to our brand promise = that’s what makes Quantum, Quantum.
That’s what differentiates us from our competitors.
![Page 8: Robert Farrington_Quantum NAB Social Media Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5445a340afaf9fdb2a8b45ed/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

And what’s our brand promise? Be Certain. So let’s create content that highlights the products + services + clients that can make them certain.
![Page 9: Robert Farrington_Quantum NAB Social Media Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5445a340afaf9fdb2a8b45ed/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

The high-level, overarching strategy is to make the Quantum brand straight-forward, authentic, fun and likeable. But how is social going to drive that through tangible, measureable actions?

But wait. Back up. Couple small - yet important things we need to make sure we bring to Vegas.

1) New Social Media Influencer Program • Identify 20 key decision
makers, CEO’s, potential clients or social drivers that we want to engage with, promote and get in front of.
![Page 12: Robert Farrington_Quantum NAB Social Media Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5445a340afaf9fdb2a8b45ed/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Let’s reach out over Twitter, Facebook friend them, message them to grab a drink. The goal is to spread awareness in a highly-targeted way, one that let’s us find and reach out to attendees while we’re on the ground.
![Page 13: Robert Farrington_Quantum NAB Social Media Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5445a340afaf9fdb2a8b45ed/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

2) Revamp our Messaging Architecture • What’s our SM conference “voice”?
• What are our current key talking
points or products we’re promoting?
• What’s our 20 second elevator
pitch?
![Page 14: Robert Farrington_Quantum NAB Social Media Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5445a340afaf9fdb2a8b45ed/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

3) Chart our Pre + Post Conference Metrics • What are our pre-conference social
media metrics?
• What platforms will give us the most ROI?
• What metrics are important? What
do we really need to measure?
![Page 15: Robert Farrington_Quantum NAB Social Media Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5445a340afaf9fdb2a8b45ed/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

So now we’ve done our homework - Let’s get to the heart of the matter.
Let’s get creative. Let’s do some real social + content marketing.
![Page 16: Robert Farrington_Quantum NAB Social Media Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5445a340afaf9fdb2a8b45ed/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

The goal here is to show how customers can “Be Certain.” The theme is “Behind the Scenes.” So let’s take them behind the scenes.
![Page 17: Robert Farrington_Quantum NAB Social Media Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5445a340afaf9fdb2a8b45ed/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

A) Let’s Ramp Up Existing Social That means the first thing we’re going to do is create our conference hashtags for every platform: #behindthescences #NABwithQuantum #BeCertain # ?
![Page 18: Robert Farrington_Quantum NAB Social Media Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5445a340afaf9fdb2a8b45ed/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Then, we start teasing on Facebook and Twitter: Dropping 3 tweets + Facebook posts per week about what we’re doing at NAB (Partner Event + Booth Party)
![Page 19: Robert Farrington_Quantum NAB Social Media Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5445a340afaf9fdb2a8b45ed/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Plus…we create a giveaway calendar, everyday giving away one piece of cool tech to surprise attendees at our booth. That’s the pre-conference basics.
![Page 20: Robert Farrington_Quantum NAB Social Media Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5445a340afaf9fdb2a8b45ed/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

B) We Create “Behind the Scenes” Video Series Let’s create a 3-part “Behind the Scenes” video series that we push during the conference.
![Page 21: Robert Farrington_Quantum NAB Social Media Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5445a340afaf9fdb2a8b45ed/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Short, 1 minute videos take you on a quick, MTV style behind the scenes interview with a Quantum customer with the central question of: “What problem did you solve?”
![Page 22: Robert Farrington_Quantum NAB Social Media Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5445a340afaf9fdb2a8b45ed/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
22
These videos allows us to showcase products + services… and are fast, loose, well-produced and by pushing them during the conference we have a good spectrum of content to push on our platforms.
![Page 23: Robert Farrington_Quantum NAB Social Media Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5445a340afaf9fdb2a8b45ed/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

The live tweet is kind of funny, tounge-in-cheek, and done with an interview / broadcast style. This makes us seem like we are really in the thick of things and totally engaged.

D) Drop a New, Branded Mini-Content Campaign @QuantumEngineers Twitter + Instagram + FB
It’s all about the Quantum Engineers…
![Page 26: Robert Farrington_Quantum NAB Social Media Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5445a340afaf9fdb2a8b45ed/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

With a couple engineers, we create and control these platforms so potential customers can see a little more of the fun, everyday, human side of Quantum and really go behind the scenes.
![Page 27: Robert Farrington_Quantum NAB Social Media Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5445a340afaf9fdb2a8b45ed/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

It allows us to diversify our branded content and see if we can gain followers and create a new position in the market.

D) Short Shoots @ the NAB 6 second videos on Vine and Facebook are gaining a lot of steam and are an easy, fun and relevant content win. We shoot 1-2 short, behind the scenes videos on our

phone at the conference and post them on Vine + Facebook. These 6 second videos are easy to create, measureable and are easy to digest, especially on Vine + Facebook + Twitter.

E) Wrap it Up with Broadcast Themed Content • “Great moments in broadcast
history” • “Who’s your favorite broadcaster?”
type broadcast triva
• “Our favorite 2012 content from Quantum customers: UFC.”
![Page 31: Robert Farrington_Quantum NAB Social Media Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5445a340afaf9fdb2a8b45ed/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

The thing that strings it all together is a stable content strategy + editorial timeline. This let’s us pre-post and schedule content, which means we can also engage with people face to face at the conference and gather content for post use as well.
![Page 32: Robert Farrington_Quantum NAB Social Media Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5445a340afaf9fdb2a8b45ed/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

A quick example of a NAB content strategy would be:
Thursday AM
time: 7am platform: Linkedin content: 3 sentence post on Quantum CTO at NAB time: 8am platform: Facebook content: breakfast “behind the scenes” video post

Finally, we make sure that when we come home we: • Analyze • Publishing Findings • Adapt
Thanks for listening. Good luck @ NAB!
