Build brand and
member awareness
• Our social platforms are audience focused
• 48% of our audience is millennials and younger
in PMI’s 7-70 policy
• Brands are people and people love
conversations
• Conversations are the holy grail of Social and
lead to influence
• Brands should influence and not “try to sell”
• Be relevant to hook into the needs and desires
• Optimise content as per social platforms

• Social listening is a topmost need of today
• Analyze and target a social platform, understand the
demographic of the audience and accordingly create
brand experience
• Be contextual to the platform in terms of content
• Every post should have a “call to action”
• Get your audience involved – User generated content
• Social audiences love when brands respond
• Think before you respond
