6. What is Social Media?
The basics:
SOCIAL MEDIA IS THE USE OF TECHNOLOGY COMBINED WITH
SOCIAL INTERACTION TO CREATE OR CO-CREATE VALUE.
⢠Social Media is a conversation, not a lecture
⢠Social Media is an extension of everyday interaction
⢠Social Media is group driven, not top-down
⢠Social Media is messy, disorganised & hard to control
â downright chaotic at times
⢠Social Media is a tool, not an end-point
⢠Social Media is potentially where your customers,
prospects and community spend their time

7. Social Media Principles
The five core principles:
1. FIND THE RIGHT PEOPLE
Build a small enthusiastic team around it
2. LISTEN FIRST
No one likes the annoying guy from work that talks about himself all day long;
donât be that guy.
3. ENGAGE EARLY & OFTEN
Itâs the bread and butter of any successful social media effort.
4. MEASURE EVERYTHING
Use data collected to make better strategic decisions - Kanter
5. LEARN & ADJUST
Dialogue changes everything. You must be willing to learn and adjust your tactics
based on your community.

8. Social Media Principles
The five core principles:
1. FIND THE RIGHT PEOPLE
Build a small enthusiastic team around it
As with everything else your organisation does, your employees are
the key differentiator between you and the next guy. Before launching any social media plan, itâs important to identify whoâs going to be
managing these efforts.
Donât try to outsource execution as these team members are the
heart & soul of your brandâs voice. By first identifying the right people
to lead these efforts, they can help drive key decisions moving
forward.

9. Social Media Principles
The five core principles:
2. LISTEN FIRST
No one likes the annoying guy from work that talks about himself all day
long; donât be that guy.
No one likes the annoying guy from work that talks about himself all
day long; donât be that guy. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of
tools to monitor whatâs being said about your company or brand.
This can be as simple as setting up Google Alerts for keywords related to your brand/company or even using search.twitter.com (or
searching from the site/various twitter apps.)
Both of these methods are can become quite tedious, so this part
you might like to outsource to a digital agency.

10. Social Media Principles
The five core principles:
3. ENGAGE EARLY & OFTEN
Itâs the bread and butter of any successful social media effort.
Thereâs a reason Brian Solis recently published his book entitled
Engage! Itâs the bread and butter of any successful social media
effort. And it takes dedicated, passionate people to achieve
engagement with any community.
If youâre going to simply push out one way messaging, thereâs plenty
of traditional media channels for that⌠Take your pick!

11. Social Media Principles
The five core principles:
4. MEASURE EVERYTHING
Use data collected to make better strategic decisions
This is an area that you should look to outsource (unless youâre
a whiz with tracking, analysing, and reporting on every online
conversation about your brand.)
Find a online measurement tool that gives you a snapshot of the
larger social monitoring industry: Brand Monitoring, Social Analytics,
as well as Social Insights.

12. Social Media Principles
The five core principles:
5. LEARN & ADJUST
Dialogue changes everything. You must be willing to learn and adjust your
tactics based on your community.
While traditional brand communication models might have
delivered similar results year in and year out, social tactics involve
conversations with real people. Dialogue changes everything. You
must be willing to learn and adjust your tactics based on your
community.
Of course, it never hurts to have a plan in place at the beginning of
the fiscal year but Iâd include a big asterisk on the front when sharing
with leadership: *Subject to change!
