The Social Media Jungle
Leveraging Social Media for YOU (and your business)
Remember…
Powerpoint Corrupts Absolute Powerpoint corrupts absolutely
Early Blogs
Cave Drawings annotated life, kept a record, served to inform future visitors (and “the future” was a much shorter time span back then when life span was shorter).
This was the recording, reporting, and distribution of news. Pretty primitive, but those were primitive times.
Original Citizen Journalism
And there’s always been word of mouth and the oral tradition. Even if it may once have been limited to “… ug booga booga.”
Someday our tools will probably seem equally
primitive.
MEDIA EVOLVES
Death Of JFK
The Assassination of John F. Kennedy was a defining moment in television.
Jon Stewart/Tucker Carlson“I won’t be your monkey”
Pundits Predicted
People said radio was dead, and newsreels were dead…
Along came Cable TV and VCRs and …
People said the Internet was just a fad
People are now saying the Internet is killing Newspapers
So let’s look at what people are talking about now, and the new ways of getting the word out
The 3-Screen world
TV
Computer Monitor
Handheld
What works on TV doesn’t always work on computer
There will always be appointment media, but the water cooler discussion will always exist, even if it moves to Twitter, social networks, etc.
TV is a lean back experience
What works on a compuer doesn’t always work on TV
PC Viewing is a “lean forward” experience. Users lean toward the screen. A more active and engaged setting.
Handheld Usage is a “multitasking experience.” A more rapid, hit-and-run, in-the-moment and transient action.

Consumers dwell in an increasing Multiscreen
World: TV and the Internet are on equal footing as
entertainment sources. 66 percent reported viewing from 1 to 4 hours of TV per day, vs. 60 percent who reported the same levels of personal Internet usage.
Consumers are increasingly turning to online destinations like YouTube, MySpace, Facebook, games, or mobile entertainment vs. traditional television.
Social Media is available on 2 of 3 Screens – how long until the 3rd one shows up? Or does computer/tv merge?
Who’s Tube?
In December 2007, 77.6 Million
Viewers were watching
2.3 Billion Videos
In March 2008 – 84.8 million viewers watched 4.3 billion videos (50.4 videos per viewer)

Budget Discussion
Many faceted branding campaign across all media, sending lots of messages outward
Social Media outreach, listening to customers, providing content to bloggers, creating relationships

3 Screens In Summary
In the Three Screen World, effective delivery and impact of getting the message across goes from the old paradigm of impression count to a blend of impressions and impact. Delivery System Ubiquity and the variety of Media (on different screens) offer new opportunities.
The TV show or ad: Passive message introduction // initial or introductory impressions.
The Website: Active engagement and reinforcement of the message - call to action (buy our product, entice with coupon) and enable and encourage the benefit.
The Handheld: Transactive (and paperless!) reminder, coupon manifestation (via SMS or wireless or interactive RFID). Portability.
Social Media Discussion
Social Networking and Social Media
How they can support other media – YOUR media
Presence, ubiquity, search and reach, and being both engaging and accessible
Who is doing a good job connecting to their viewers, bridging the gap between screens, and connecting content and people?
Trans-Media and the Heroes Phenomenon
Not Just a TV Show
Intended as a mixed media property
Writers from properties such as Alias and Lost, which gained huge Internet followings
From the beginning, a strategy to generate content for the Net that would draw fans into the show
Sponsorship built into the plot
Sprint-sponsored content/contest for next
season Hero
All “heroes” carrySprint phones…
Learning?
If you’re creating content: How quickly and easily can you let your fans take your
content and remix it? Mash can be monster, and viral. How easy is it for them to share with their friends? Are
you enabling them to use it in their Social Networks?
Who owns your brand? You manage your brand Your customers decide what it means to them, every
time they interact with you – or with their peers or extended networks
Feed the engines
Blogs, Twitter, LinkedIn, Flickr, Comments, YouTube, Tags, Links, all feed the Search Engine Cloud that surrounds you or your brand.
Search Drives Almost Everything today. It is today’s “Killer App”
Search is the Integrator – in all the screens. We search for TV shows, on our DVR guides, On our phones (iphone users 50% of Google search last year), and of course at our computers.

Take-Aways – What Old Media can teach new
media
1. Repetition can be a good thing. (You can say that again) 2 all beef patties… I’m a… he’s a….wouldn’t you like to be a… Whatzzzzuppp??? Ahhhhh….Ahhhh.
Put Content with your Ads Radio announcer endorsements in the 40s, Dancing Cigarette
boxes in 50’s variety shows Podcast hosts doing direct product mentions: ex: Brian Ibbot
on Coverville, Mevio/Podshow model
…More takeaways
Reach and Frequency still important to many advertisers Even if you can show Social Influence and Return on
Influence, many will still want to know how many hits their page got, and how many eyeballs were ‘reached’
It’s your job to explain it both ways
