Page 2: social media

OBJECTIVES What will you be using the social media chanells for?

// To inform and get deeper recognition within the industry and potential customers` base (Gain recognition as the experts in the Performance Marketing sector (with a focus on Google AdWords; Bid Management etc.)

// To build a brand (!) – Because the most relevant media for Adspert is obviously web Above all the things the company does as a business platform, it is barely possible to build a brand in a traditional meaning (with the clear image and a set of customers‘ beliefs and associations connected to it) based only on the technical objectives of what the company does (also because only the very small, well informed targets can participate in a brand recognition then – To get new audience, such as rather small companies, not having their IT departments, which will be perfect to absorb the „full automated process“ statement. The branding strategy needs to get more of a „human“ face (Ask the audience questions, Inform about the events where they could meet you personally)

// To let your customers contact you in the most comfortable way ( it always gets easier to ask a random question throughout Facebook, than to call or use a contact form on the official website.)

// To keep customers informed (Inform Audience about changes, news, interesting information. What is the branch talking about?)

// To show off your knowledge and skills (to place your opinion to the current discussions.)

// To get deeper knowledge about your audiences and their habits

// By publishing posts regularly, you as well make sure you always keep yourself up to date with the most recent news from the industry

// To be able to inform about any new features to the product and establish a dialogue with clients - as SM can also be treated as a Customer Service

// Traffic building , Content marketing

3 MAIN TYPES OF DECISIVE GROUPSAccording to a typical Value Chain of more complex enterprises, where decision is being made by a „ladder“ of employees

// Decision – makers // Motivators// Users

B2B SOCIAL MEDIA USER - BASIC PROFILE

// Core needs : Confidence / Security / Proffesionalism & Expertise// The difference between B2C vs. B2B customer – Much more demanding, sceptic, and less active than within B2C markets

THE TYPICAL B2B SM CAMPAIGN CHARACTERISTICS

// Thought through and less agresive than in B2C// Introducing the brand as the main objective// Highlighting the advantages that lie in an interesting offer// Often the presence of a contact form / private message, where questions being answered

THE AUDIENCE

// B2B customers – agencies and other outsourcers// B2B – small companies? And other, less informed customers (keep an eye on whether they follow – you can have a gallery with pictures visualizing the simplified process? People tend to know a bit of what is the process about – of course, they need to know their benefits, how to log on etc. , but most of them would probably also like a simple, very basic explanation ( to recall it later when talking to other potential customers etc. – may provide a big plus to a recognition within less informed customers simply trough the grapevine)// Experts, Journalists related to the industry – the presence of those people on your profile requires posting the most relevant news – the certain opportunity lies in it, but also needs to be done very carefully – even a few overdue posts can make you loose your credibility (especially when it comes to media, technique and online industries etc.) – show off your knowledge, focus on innovation, keep ahead of competitors!// Investors// Competitors to be challenged – other people worth getting into an open discussion with

Page 7: social media

COMPETITORS PODs & POPs – COMPETITORS ANALYSIS

// Ask how, what the other companies sell differs from the product&service you offer? // How can you differenciate from them as a brand? // What are your strong points and what „more“ (the added value) can you offer? Make it sound out loud and then try to translate it into the SM strategy.// What`s their Facebook activity about?// How often do they post?// What kind of posts are these?// Analize the number of fans and active responses// Look up competitors` high sharers – are them journalists, collegues or their satisfied clients?

Competitors conclusion - What can we learn from them?

Majority of your competitors keep their SM strategy 360°, incorporating all the available tools to inform and brand their SM areas, and some of them use a channel or even a few to build a customer-based community around (like blog or FB fanpages). The most “spectacular” (3200 – second one has 850) number of fans, responses and actions undertaken has KENSHOO – because its SMstrategy has been well differenciated from their competitors:// Posts very often – every 3-4 days ( there‘s a big difference between the number of fans when it’s being posted once against two times a week! )// Is slightly more social, relaxed, has a funny attitude – others tend to be very strickt and focused on the industry only// They have a consistent, based on a very simple idea of using a cardboard object to take photos with it as a frame; ( cheap or perhaps costless ) „theme“: How do [ you ] Kenshoo? / [ I ] am Kenshoo. // Why do [I] Kenshoo? campaign on YouTube channel, where reference customers are being asked various questions ( such as : What do you do with all the time saved thanks to Kenshoo? etc.)// English Language – goes better with it on FB, where plenty of people from around the world may like to learn about your business ( In your case: the double-launguage posting might probably work even better, as a great deal of your clients and partners are German-speaking)

BRANDINGBranding is vital to the success of the online - based business.

Traditional marketing message offline doesn’t always translate into an effective message online, because these two spheres work differently. But the traditional branding strategy can easily be adapted to suit online marketing simply by the way you decide to present it.

An effective online communication is based on that people can relate to, can engage with and identify with it within their online communities. Branding online is about getting your message across and making sure people recognize and remember you.

The most important online branding element is consistency, being defined as „the achievement of a level of performance that does not vary greatly in quality over time“. So all your content:messages, visuals and way of presenting your business should be the same throughout all social media platforms.

It’s one thing to have your website and banner ads looking the same but what about your social media marketing efforts? As social media becomes a core part of any business’ marketing plan, your brand and message should follow through and be familiar. From your website through to all your social networking accounts.

By keeping your brand image consistent - in the way it looks and messages it conveys - you’re building trust and establishing your authority in social media communities. If people start to remember your unique branding, they are much more likely to recognize your company and product. What‘s more is that, when you additionaly are able to deliver what you promise, the customers will also recommend your brand to friends.

ONLINE ELEMENTS THAT CAN BE BRANDED:

// website// banner ads// text ads// profiles// avatars and photos// messages or USP

Post regularly. Update everything at the same time. Create some buzz and most importantly inform your audience, and try to get some feedback from them, since it is the best resource for finding out what works and what fails. Branding is about creating a clear image and consistent communication that lasts for a long time and is a fundament of building a relationship with your customers, both offline and online.

Page 13: social media

VALUE ADDEDWhat MORE does it offer – comparing to competitors, Why is it more efficient, easier, better than a complex service offered by the „full-set“ online marketing agencies (look up the „Competitors“)User-oriented? User-friendly design/interface?

// Brand senses ( APP )// Benefits vs. Problem solving ( question-answer model, as on the dmexco presentation)// Is it unique? – sure it is! (Why?)// Is the price relatively low set?// Is it solving any problems above the core function?// Can using „the tool“ provide any source of more of emotional relation – relief, more time etc. – How can you manage to make your customers grateful, feeling that „their life wasn’t the same without your product/service“

BRAND EQUITY These days brand is no longer what you tell your customers it is, but rather what the customerstell each other it is.

// Reference customers Where the old/new/potential sources of brand equity lie? ( ex. Ask what was unique&positive within the time working for your reference customers?// Could the count on a fact that it’s always done according to deadlines? Why did the prefer hireing you to another company? Had they already hired another agency/used another tool before?// If so, What made them change their mind?

-> Prepare the case studies containing monitored outcomes of your collaborations!

BRAND WITHIN SOCIAL MEDIA KEY QUALITIES/FEATURES

// Performance oriented// Focused// Proffesional (skillful engineers)// Work-fun balance/team spirit// Innovation// Hub/Lab etc.// Start-up – the insight into fresh approach to business// Service – automatic tool + what more can be offered? > App + reliable support in person, fast reactions to customers’ needs, taking off all the doubts of their mind// An individual offer, consulting, full control over the campaign’s budget

Page 14: social media

ADSPERT

// advertising + expert// specialists – skillful, knowledgable// plus concious about What? Why? How? and having clear goals// online advertising experts// a will to explain, educate and share knowledge// capacity of translating the complicated knowledge onto different levels and grounds // translate, explain, educate ( prepare clients for a change! , show them some new ways of thinking, open their minds for something fresh, new and truly boosting their performance!)

THE TEAM :A young company, with a fresh approach highly proffesional experts with a wonderful background, to whom work is passion, who are concerned about the progressive innova-tion, excelently oriented within the industry, concious about the business potential and how powerful the product and its’ growth opportunities are. People who are passionate are also fun to be around, and capable of finding the right balance between work&leisure (relax). Focused specificaly on one issue and looking for the best solution – do not want to get distracted ( it’s better to become an absolute expert in a narrow field, than to maintain an average level within many). People who contribute their passion, skills and experience to „make a difference“ /„push things forward“.

THE TOOL:Problem: Large amounts of data can only be managed manually Answer: Statistics/Automation/SimplicityThe analysis methods in Adspert are purely scientific and fact-based - there are no fixed rules as with other providers, but the system learns and decides itself through the cons-tant bid optimization, for example, seasonalities are recognized.

SOCIAL MEDIA PERSONAS PERSONA - BASED MARKETING

Persona-based marketing is one of the most poweful tools to be used to better connect

with prospects and customers. Basically, persona-based marketing looks from one hand

like a Hollywood characterization and on the other - business analytics. It involves const-

ructing a fictional customer-character, based on real-life data and intelligence-and use it

as a yardstick for promotional and selling decisions.

Persona-based marketing goes beyond simple demographic data - it describes who

customers are by, inter alia, answering questions about their behaviour, such as: How

does he spend his time? How does she like to be sold to? Are they tend to stay with the

same company working their way up the ladder over time or do they rather jump around

every couple of years (months)?

Referring to these fictional characters as you formulate and execute your messages, can

make your marketing more effective and prevent your promotions from becoming too

generic to be noticed. The persona-based decisions can stop you from looking at an issue

from a subjective standpoint of „I think“ ,and push you to start wondering about „what

would our customer or prospect think?“

// Look up the competitors’ clients/audience via social media profiles

// Try to build up an artificial profiles of the typical SM user / typical customer to whom the profiles may apply -> create PERSONAS

// Divide personas into a few different categories – one for each type of customers, ex.:

Page 21: social media

1. PROFFESIONAL/ IT/ INDUSTRY-RELATED/ JOURNALIST

// Men/woman, age 25-34 ( according to every FB statistic - rankings of your competitors, that’s the most actively participating age-based target)

// Aprox. 3-8 years of proffesional experience

// An active proffesional, focused on innovation and goals

// well informed

// waiting for all the freshest news , scientific research outcomes

// interested in getting informed about the industry-related conferences, lectures etc.

// Not very much into „socializing“, their activity based mostly on giving adequate opinions on industry-related topics whe these are being discussed in SM

// Dynamic lifestyle ( think about adding a sport, travelling etc. into the „Interests“ field)

// Include all the relevant media/journalists etc. in „Likes“

Page 22: social media

2. FUTURE POTENTIAL CUSTOMER / SMALL-MEDIUM BUSINESS OWNER / DECISIVE SENIOR EMPLOYEE

// Poorly oriented within technology and online market , its issues and opportunities

// Understands basic, rather non-tech. topics, at the same time links and articles suitable for proffesional he/she doesn’t understand so that completely don’t appear to him/her

// Needs more of a social- emotional, trust and relation-building content

// He/she probably has a deep need to know who they’re talking to in person, so that you ought to make sure there is a nice team-page built

// Provide some fun, cheerful stuff

// Show your engagement into the proffesional ground ( the rule applied will be, that they not necessary need to understand all these technical principals, but rather intuitively see how deep into business your experts are! )

// Try to provide a learning content, suitable more for amateurs, to allow them to go a bit deeper into the subject matter

-> it is very unlikely to work if you are going to use the jargon – try to work on a more down-to-earth writing style, in case if you wanna target some part of the content to those people. Note it is likely that the decisive person might be related to marketing department - try to talk to them in a way that a person with more of traditional, offline approach to marketing are able to follow as well.

Page 23: social media

CONTENT INFORMATIVE / INTERESTING / HELPFUL / FUN / ENTERTAINING

// The Question - Answer tag on a blog, after discussing with sales the type of questions that are the most frequently asked by customers – to inform better, to make it sooner for Sales Department to enter the whole process, FAQ on the official website

// LINKS – to redirect users from Social Media to the follow- ups on www/professional blog

// Open comments – also on the professional blog – to build trust within your audience

// Forums - posting links. In an appriopriate way. Another way can be to set a forum where your audience could share their opinions about a product and more. (trust building!)

// VIDEOS – Socialcam tool can be used ( „Istagram for video“) – let public behind the scenes, instead of big-budget virals – set up a chanell where the most important thing is to post often, short and interesting ( the more often you post, the more it appear in the news feed for the users!)

// PHOTOS – pictures of your team, both from professional (seminarees etc.) and more of behind-the-scenes standpoint, funny photos/collages that can be reposted/reblogged and spread around the SM, causing in the traffic increase within your official website

// PR - Bloggers and Reference customers – request posts informing about your company

TOP FEATURES OF YOUR SM PROFILES MAJOR GOALS/ DESIRABLE ACTIONS // Manage to make „the contact“ one of the top 3 features – No forms there (tends to make the contact more indirect) – simple, easy Private Message// Concider one of the channels as a kind of a basic customer service platform

SOCIAL MEDIA SOLUTION1. Content - which topics will be both informative and interesting to youraudience - target market. Above that, consider including:stories of business success, employee profiles, philantrophy info ( if any )2. Delivery - Content Integration - f.e. building a twitter following or starting a conversation on LinkedIn, the twitter - YouTube combo etc.

TRACKING SMAs you build profiles and engaged followers on the various social networks, you will also see an increase in traffic to your official website. If you are doing other forms of advertising like Pay Per Click (PPC), it can become even more difficult to determine what’s bringing you the results and what fails. That is where you need to start using some analitics programs to make your work easier. Using an analytics program will streamline the process and make it much easier to see where the traffic is coming from. It will also allow you to measure different me-trics such as percentage of impressions and feedbacks to your posts, number of replies,“likes“,views, relevant followers, „retweets“, social shares, comments, click rates, and finally - conversions.

It is important to ensure a data flow between different Social Media channels. For example, each time you are publishing a new post on the official blog, makesure it will also appear as an update to your LinkedIn profile, Put the link to it on your Facebook Timeline etc. With tracking the online „paths“ of your audience, the analitics programs will also apply. For example, the Multi-Channel Funnels in Google Analytics let you look at interactions across different digital media and shows how these chan-nels work together to create sales and conversions.

The ways your customers interact with your channels are all part of the marke-ting funnel leading to conversion. Often the customers engage more with these channels than they do with the very final „click“. You then can observe where exactly the traffic comes from.

Thanks to Google Analitics you can see how your customers interacted with all the channels before the conversions, so that you are able to identify channels making the assets and optimize your strategy. It will also show you how your channels work together and in what order set these to bring you the most con-versions.
