How to Evaluate Your Existing
Social/Mobile Efforts

So how do you know if your
company is doing a good job at
leveraging these ten social/mobile
revenue drivers and optimizing
customer engagement?


Social/Mobile “Strategic” Evaluation

Introducing Our New Patent Pending Solution, EQ Pulse™ - Web 2.0 :
 The first, simple digital analytic methodology that provides a “30,000 foot” view of a
brand’s OVERALL use of Web 2.0 marketing mediums including Social Networking,
Word of Mouth and Mobile Marketing.
 Total EQ Pulse™ - Web 2.0 score measures the overall effectiveness of Web 2.0
digital efforts across all drivers that can potentially increase revenue.
 Similar to a “FICO” score that measures a person’s credit worthiness.
 In evaluating over 160 best practices of the brand’s Web 2.0 digital efforts, we issue
separate scores for each of ten, broad Web 2.0 strategic revenue driver categories.
These help identify strengths, weaknesses and gaps vs. key competitors and vs.
industry best practices.
 We explore best practices such as social networking, word of mouth, mobile
marketing, blogs, podcasting, online video and gaming, widgets, Facebook and
YouTube presence, consumer generated content, community, personalization,
wikis, and search 2.0, etc.
 We then provide Actionable, Revenue Building Recommendations as well as
visual, case study examples.

Comments and Analysis: (7.9)
 Eastport leveraged extensive online input gathering mechanisms including “Tell Us What You Think of
Eastport.com” links, and “Add Your Own Testimonial” links sprinkled throughout the site. A number of
these testimonials were prominently featured on the Eastport homepage.
– Westgate and Midway did not ask consumers for feedback about their products, although Midway
did feature an online “poll” about the benefits of the category.
 Within the “blogosphere”, Eastport had the most mentions by far with over 2400. Midway had 450, while
Westgate had only 33.
– Eastport and Midway’s comments were overwhelming positive, while Westgate’s were somewhat
mixed.
– Core negative comments for Westgate revolved around the recent voluntary product recall and long
waits for customer service representatives in general.
– Eastport was also the only brand that had their own blog.
 In consumer generated “visual” media, Eastport had over 500 “YouTube” placements mainly related to
their well known flagship product, some of which were very creative and humorous (Midway and
Westgate had 27 and 11 YouTube mentions respectively).
– A recent campaign soliciting consumers to create their own videos generated a substantial amount
of free press and goodwill for the Eastport brand.
 In consumer generated “text” content, Midway’s website solicited consumers to provide a wide array of
created “alternative use” ideas for its premium product.
– Westgate did not solicit any consumer generated content from its customers at all.
 Across the competitive landscape, only Eastport had a listing in Wikipedia (the listing was fairly
extensive).

The World of Mobile Marketing – Mobile
Phones Have Begun to Surpass Computers

 Mobile is ramping up much faster than desktop computers did (Morgan
Stanley – 4/10).
– In fact, today there are more mobile phones in the world than computers
(CNBC – 6/10).
 Cell phones are now used more for “data” purposes (such as web browsing,
text messaging, e-mail, games, social messaging, music, etc.) than for
phone calls (New York Times – 5/13/10).
 Smartphone penetration (iPhone, Android, etc.) will reach a staggering 50%
by mid 2011 (Comscore – 12/09).
 40% of iPhone users now browse the web more on their phones than on
their computers (Advertising Age – 2/10).
 There are already 200,000 iPhone “Apps” in circulation; 75% of them are
“paid” apps (Apple – 4/10).
 Mobile offers something other marketing mediums cannot… A much higher
probability of a message being delivered to the right person at the right time.
 Mobile coupons, transparent pricing, and branded mobile “apps” will disrupt
retail and drive new traffic and sales (Morgan Stanley – 4/10).
