W H AT ’ S T H E “ R I G H T ” WAY T O M A R K E T O N D I G I TA L M E D I A ?
There is no “right” way, but there is most certainly a WRONG way. There’s a lot of experimenting going on in this evolving space. Digital space is about relationships treating people as people. Consumers want to know they are interacting with real people behind the brands and are callus to PR Speak and talking point.

FACEBOOKThe Basics
The Pros The Cons
➡ Largest user base➡ Organic and Paid Ad means➡ Customizable Fan Pages (to an extent)➡ Raffles and Promotions can get good
traffic
➡ Growing resentment of advertising (if done “wrong”)
➡ Large user base of people and businesses, thus lots of “noise”
➡ constant changing of news feed algorithms causes difficulty in placing updates to Fans’ news feeds
Online venue for friends to connect around commonalities (childhood, school, work, family, brands)
It’s like a dinner party at your house. You have close friends, loose ties, and acquaintances, but everyone there you know at some level.

TWITTERThe Basics
The Pros The Cons
➡ Large user base➡ Data mine field (everything is public)➡ Simple interface➡ Can be utilized in creative ways, it’s still
a growing platform
➡ Large user base, lots of “noise”➡ Growing resentment to marketing (when
done “wrong”)➡ Segment of user base feels “anonymous”
and thus can be unreliable and predictable.
➡ Pliable user experience and expectations➡ Prominent SPAM issue
Short, concise communication with varying degrees of user familiarity. It’s answering the preverbal question “What are you doing right now?”
It’s like a business conference. You might know some people, but most of the crowd are complete strangers. You’re there to connect, network and learn
from others. You get out of it what you put into it.

The Pros The Cons
➡ Large (but largely inactive) user base➡ Those who do use it are highly
committed and satisfied with platform➡ Multimedia integration and leveraging
of Google Portfolio of products (search, YouTube, Picasa, etc)
➡ Inactive user base (avg 3 minutes a month)
➡ Many accounts are activated through gMail, YouTube, other portfolio products and aren’t even aware of Google+ as a platform
➡ Brand pages are in infancy
GOOGLE+The Basics
Today: Google’s entry into social media. Attempts to bring aspects of Facebook and Twitter into a single platform for a more complete and customizable experience.
Future: Google+ is thought to become the “Hub” of Google’s experience. Google’s full portfolio of products (search, YouTube, Picasa, Docs,
AdWords, Blogger, etc) will plug into Google+ as a central hub.

Pilot offer at a single site in Houston Y resulted in nearly 200 sales. 70% redeemed their Groupon. Of that total, 60% became full paying, monthly members.
Mobile WebsitesIf you don’t have a mobile website version, or if you thinking of revamping, now is the time to leapfrog the technology. No longer is a mobile site the way forward. New technology is “Responsive Design” where the website layout adapts automatically to the size of the browser (desktop, 10” iPad, 7” Android Tablet, 4-5” Android phones and 3.5” iPhones). The layout, graphics and photos resize automatically to optimize screen real estate and the need to manage multiple sites is eliminated. This also addresses the pressure to develop “Apps” for iOS and Android (and soon to be Windows 8 phones). These responsive design sites, when designed and structured effectively, act as “Web Apps” that are Operating System independent and can be viewed on any device, eliminated the need to create and iPhone app, Android App, Blackberry App and Windows App
