“Across all stages of a technology initiative, which of the following
sources of information influence your decision-making process?”
People are what matter, including your
prospects‟ peers and colleagues

Similarly, B2C discovery is friends and
family

Social Focus on the Customer Life Cycle

Social reach focuses on:
• Discovery.
• New prospects.

All content is a mix of both.
This isn‟t about paid versus free

Types of social reach
Your social intelligence initiative doesn‟t
help you engage

Listening platforms aren‟t designed to
engage

Listening platforms amplify the less
influential
BUT YOUR CUSTOMERS AREN‟T BEING INFLUENCED THERE
60% to 70%
• of Salesforce Marketing Cloud content comes from Twitter.
5%
• of your buyers are influenced by content on Twitter.*

Advocates are customers, partners, fans and evangelists -
any individual - that invest in your company in non-financial
ways
Advocates are Ektronauts

•You don’t treat your
customers and prospects as
equals . . .
• . . . so why treat everyone
who talks about your
product and category as
equals?
Focus on the advocates who
matter.

Why should you do advocate marketing?
•Your customers are already talking — all the time.
•Engagement fuels the fire.
•Engaged advocates supplement customer
advocate (or reference) programs.

your brand!

Public recognition
Swag such as a free t-shirt
Personal contact by a vendor representative
VIP treatment at an event or conference
Gift certificates or cash for me personally
Use my ideas or comments to improve the product
Discounts on a vendor's products
31
When on an online community that is clearly managed by a vendor of
products or services, which of these would encourage you to
participate?
What you want
What you don‟t

Capital not Cash
We See You We‟re Listening to
You
We‟re Behind You
33
• Always focus on the relationship. Advocacy is not
„transactional.‟
• Build the advocate‟s reputation:
‒ Reference calls = connections.
‒ Referrals = trust.
‒ Analyst calls = reputation.
• Start small and work towards big asks
• Use psychological principles of motivation
(ie., exclusivity, reciprocity)
• Make it fun!

  7. So what is advocate marketing and why are we talking about it’s impact on Lead to revenue management? I’ll give you the definition, but as you know, a picture is worth a thousand words. And this picture, submitted to us by our customer Ektron, really shows it off. You can see that there are four gentlemen here proudly posing for a picture under their hand-carved sign which says “The Ektronauts” They are clearly power users of Ektrons web content management system. They love the product. But more than that, they are proudly declaring it to the world with a hand carved sign. Now as crazy as that may sound – every company has Ektronauts, people that believe passionately in their vendor’s mission, vision and products. They just need to be found and given a platform. Advocate marketing captures this enthusiasm of fans, evangelists and promoters – increasingly grouped together as "advocates" - and turns it into a powerful force for igniting business.  For the B2B companies that we focus on at Influitive, advocate marketing not only generates more leads directly through referrals, but accelerates revenue generation through every other marketing and sales channel.  It's this force-multiplier effect that makes advocate marketing so exciting, being embraced by forward-thinking marketing leaders.  And now over to Lori Wizdo from Forrester, who is one of those forward-thinking marketing leaders, to provide her insights on Advocate Marketing.
  8. We know that word-of-mouth has far more reach potential than any marketing campaign. But while many people may “like” or follow a brand on social media platforms, it’s a much smaller group of true advocates that goes he extra mile by finding and heavily promoting their favorite content, services and products.Why do advocates advocate? It’s amazing to many people that customers will actually take the time out of their busy day to share their positive experiences with a vendor – and do that without being asked. But here’s the thing about advocacy: it’s buttressed by innate behaviors. People become advocates because they’re hardwired to connect and build relationships, and one way to achieve that is through unsolicited support.
