It’s not about the individual it’s about the collective community!
Today Anyone can be an influencer. Anyone because it’s easier to share, post and contribute. And anyone because more than ever people trust each other more than ever before. Anyone because we can encourage people to contirbute (John Lazarchik story). And anyone because you, the people in this room and what we do amplifies their voices beyond the influence any one person thought they had. In the last three years we’ve served 50 billion pieces of UGC across all your sites.
From participation to transformation, I realized that if you’re heading down a path of change, of transformation, than the goals should be to achieve that at some velocity and you want to sustain momentum.In doing so, I would suggest that YOU in this room are the change agents for your organization. And as such, need to think of your roles a bit differently.Before I go too much further, I thought this is the perfect place to introduce this year’s Social commerce summit video. You need to think differently about your job…Marketing has changed, therefore our job as marketers has to change.And to celebrate that change, I am going to now share the Social Commerce Summit video with you…which has become an annual tradition. And this year, you will see three videos. Here’s the first.
How things worked at DellI worked at Dell, developing the Dell.com consumer site. At Dell, the best source of customer feedback we had was from :Customer Service CallsProduct ReturnsSales volumeCompare this to today, where Dell is now a Bazaarvoice client, and getting increasingly involved in the Social Web. Take IdeaStorm, for example, where Dell developed a desktop Linux box based on a customer recommendation. They went from a customer idea to launching the product in less than [X Weeks]. Being able to recognize the demand for a product and react to those opinions is priceless.
When you start into social
Web is littered with ghost towns.
How this topic all started: We consistently received the feedback of, “What do we do with negative reviews?”We knew negative reviews increased conversion. We knew they built trust and loyalty. But what about driving change across the organisation?The simple fact is, authentic customer feedback is HARD to acquire and massively VALUABLE for nearly every department in your company.
An evil-looking monster mountain that spits red slime, throws rocks out of its head, while your hot wheel cars fly out of every oraface.I should’ve sat on Santa’s lap and asked him to come over to put this montrosity together.
Shit cano..Santa brought my 4 year old son a terrible toy.This is not a presentation about passing blame
I Now the moral of the story for the purpose of this presentation is not to blame santa or anyone else. These things just happen.
My father shared this review. You may have your own story like this. You may have, like many people researching and shopping online, been impacted as a consumer by someone elses influence.Now more than ever stories like this, without us very clearly.
