2009     the fan economy

Bud Caddell         Strategist, Undercurrent
Once upon a time,
   the internet was
   supposed to be the
   great homogenizer.
With common information, in
common places, we were all
supposed to become one mass
audience – ripe for the picking.
This was not an original idea.
Fortunately, the world is far
too complex for homogeneity.
The web has made
constructing our identity
through niche communities
more visible, accessible,
and rewarding.
And whatever we hunger,
 we can find others like us
    offering the means to
      satiate that hunger.
Which means the days of the
captive audience are gone.
Welcome to today.
      Welcome to standing for
nothing means standing alone.
Welcome to the recession.
Today, we must commit our budgets
to have the greatest measurable
impact on human interaction.
Which means we can’t waste
our diminishing ad budgets on
     another awareness play.
Fans are our new economy.
A dollar spent on fans is a dollar
  spent on retention, recruitment,
             R&D and longevity.
Fans don’t just buy our
products, they convince their
friends to give us a try.
And because we all define our
digital identity around our
fandom, fans are now easier
and more cost effective to find
and engage online.
And engagement begins
simply by listening.
Fans are practiced at voicing
their opinions. Understanding
their desires and their
motivations is absolutely critical.
Make no mistake, 2009 will wipe
the floor with unremarkable ideas.
Customers come and go,
but fans fight for your survival.
2008 provided some fine
examples for how we can
engage with fans in 2009.
Pent-up fan demand for
the McFly lead to lines
around buildings and
pairs going for $2,000
on eBay.
Nevermind pay-as-you-
like, it was the box-set
that was the fan
focused product, and
Radiohead sold over
100,000 at $80 each.
Avril Lavigne puts as
much content as she can
on her YouTube channel.
And it’s estimated she
made a cool $2 million
from her fan’s views.
Mountain Dew created a
game to let their fans
engineer the next flavor
from scratch. The
candidate flavors flew off
the shelves.
Virgin America teamed up with
HBO to offer the Entourage
experience on flights from NYC
to Las Vegas through a new
‘Entourage’ first class ticket.
Joss didn’t let a little thing like a writer’s
strike stop him. Casual observers
watched for free, but fans pushed the
show and soundtrack to #1 on Tunes.  i
Tune-in may have been down, but the
advertising drama, Mad Men, had
fans engaging fans, creating their own
content and awareness for the show.
A bridge in his name, a hockey
team’s mascot, humbling Kanye;
Stephen Colbert deftly engages his
fan community, the Colbert Nation.
H&M, Target, and others work with
mega-names in fashion to make high
design more accessible to hungry fan
communities.
The ways to play with fans
are many, but to become a
fan focused organization you
need 3 key ingredients.*




*Garnish as you please.
It’s time to stand
      for something; to
            use your size
         and power for
      the advocacy of
                an ideal.




A Point of View
A Belief in Infinity




Fandom defies conventions of time, space, and material.
Relationships require more than a single campaign.
Fandom demands pliability,
                and cultural significance
              requires exposing yourself
                  to the mechanisms of
                   culture (e.g. remixing).




Open Source Relationships
In 2009, I challenge you
to become fan focused.

Don’t spend a dime
outside of fan communities.
Not a red cent.

The fan-economy

  • 1. 2009 the fan economy Bud Caddell Strategist, Undercurrent
  • 2. Once upon a time, the internet was supposed to be the great homogenizer.
  • 3. With common information, in common places, we were all supposed to become one mass audience – ripe for the picking.
  • 4. This was not an original idea.
  • 5. Fortunately, the world is far too complex for homogeneity.
  • 6. The web has made constructing our identity through niche communities more visible, accessible, and rewarding.
  • 7. And whatever we hunger, we can find others like us offering the means to satiate that hunger.
  • 8. Which means the days of the captive audience are gone.
  • 9. Welcome to today. Welcome to standing for nothing means standing alone.

  • 13. Fans are our new economy.
  • 14. A dollar spent on fans is a dollar spent on retention, recruitment, R&D and longevity.
  • 15. Fans don’t just buy our products, they convince their friends to give us a try.
  • 16. And because we all define our digital identity around our fandom, fans are now easier and more cost effective to find and engage online.
  • 18. Fans are practiced at voicing their opinions. Understanding their desires and their motivations is absolutely critical.
  • 19. Make no mistake, 2009 will wipe the floor with unremarkable ideas.
  • 20. Customers come and go, but fans fight for your survival.
  • 21. 2008 provided some fine examples for how we can engage with fans in 2009.
  • 22. Pent-up fan demand for the McFly lead to lines around buildings and pairs going for $2,000 on eBay.
  • 23. Nevermind pay-as-you- like, it was the box-set that was the fan focused product, and Radiohead sold over 100,000 at $80 each.
  • 24. Avril Lavigne puts as much content as she can on her YouTube channel. And it’s estimated she made a cool $2 million from her fan’s views.
  • 25. Mountain Dew created a game to let their fans engineer the next flavor from scratch. The candidate flavors flew off the shelves.
  • 26. Virgin America teamed up with HBO to offer the Entourage experience on flights from NYC to Las Vegas through a new ‘Entourage’ first class ticket.
  • 27. Joss didn’t let a little thing like a writer’s strike stop him. Casual observers watched for free, but fans pushed the show and soundtrack to #1 on Tunes. i
  • 28. Tune-in may have been down, but the advertising drama, Mad Men, had fans engaging fans, creating their own content and awareness for the show.
  • 29. A bridge in his name, a hockey team’s mascot, humbling Kanye; Stephen Colbert deftly engages his fan community, the Colbert Nation.
  • 30. H&M, Target, and others work with mega-names in fashion to make high design more accessible to hungry fan communities.
  • 31. The ways to play with fans are many, but to become a fan focused organization you need 3 key ingredients.* *Garnish as you please.
  • 32. It’s time to stand for something; to use your size and power for the advocacy of an ideal. A Point of View
  • 33. A Belief in Infinity Fandom defies conventions of time, space, and material. Relationships require more than a single campaign.
  • 34. Fandom demands pliability, and cultural significance requires exposing yourself to the mechanisms of culture (e.g. remixing). Open Source Relationships
  • 35. In 2009, I challenge you to become fan focused. Don’t spend a dime outside of fan communities. Not a red cent.
