“Two years ago, Salim at SAP inspired Priscilla Scala and I to work on “Social Profiling.” We brainstormed profile markers then wrote code that sorted SAP followers into dynamic buckets based on Influence and Bio categories.” – Jodee Rich, Kred Blog

Prior to running any influencer campaign, the team first identified who it is Microsoft is trying to reach, where they are, what media they consume, and how they behave. The research found that upwards of 70% of its target consumers are influenced by their peers. - Molly O’Donnell, Director of Influencer Marketing at Microsoft

It was our hope that people would come out of it as Windows Phone evangelists. Our objective wasn’t to simply get tweets or updates, but instead measure whether or not this program changed familiarity or the likelihood to purchase a phone. - Molly O’Donnell, Director of Influencer Marketing at Microsoft

Businesses have a finite amount of money and time; therefore, they must identify the most connected people that can to help expand their reach. The value to businesses is that they can have access to the respective Rolodex of consumers and reward them as a result.

- Dr. Bernardo Huberman, Director of HP Labs

The Problem with Measuring Influence

Page 36: [Slides] The Rise of Digital Influence, with Brian Solis

We live in a society obsessed with measurement, but the act of measuring often means that the thing being measured becomes illusive. When sociologists measure social capital, they do so from a distance precisely because people would try to game the measurement. But what's happening here isn't just measurement: it's trying to leverage measurement to do something. That's where it loses its role as a measurement process.

- danah boyd, Senior Researcher at Microsoft Research

Page 37: [Slides] The Rise of Digital Influence, with Brian Solis

What does the # really mean and why does it matter?

Page 38: [Slides] The Rise of Digital Influence, with Brian Solis

With executives increasing demand on ROI, brands must tread strategically as they experiment with influencer campaigns.

Page 39: [Slides] The Rise of Digital Influence, with Brian Solis

When ROI = The Realization of Influence

• Brands cannot afford to make marketing or engagement decisions based on scores alone

• Do these new services that capture social media scores equate to influence? No…and that’s why we’re here today

• In digital influence, value is in the eye of the beholder• In the end, the true measure of influence is determined by

an outcome or extent of change

Social capital is the key that unlocks digital influence and new customer touch points.

Page 42: [Slides] The Rise of Digital Influence, with Brian Solis

Social Capital = The collective value of all 'social networks' and the inclinations that arise from these networks to do things for each other-Robert Putnam

Page 43: [Slides] The Rise of Digital Influence, with Brian Solis

Social capital can be measured by the amount of trust and reciprocity in a community or between individuals-Robert Putnam

The Pillars of Influence: Understanding the 3R’s

Reach: Relationships form the social graph and define how far information can travel across the social graph and communities at large. Reach is a measure of popularity, affinity, and potential impact.

Relevance: Topical relevance forms the interest graph and the communities of focus. Individuals aligned through subject matter create a series of linked relationships that send information along communities of focus

Resonance: The measurement of the duration, rate, and level of interactivity around content, a topic, or conversations. High resonance ensures that more people will see each post or update.

Page 46: [Slides] The Rise of Digital Influence, with Brian Solis

The New Era of Consumer Influence: When Nobodies Become Somebodies

Popularity: The state of being liked, admired, or supported by many people.

Proximity: The location of an individual is taken into consideration where effect is necessary within a particular setting or environment.

Goodwill: Increases appreciation and the probability for collaboration and action.

Authority: Expert on subject matter. Authority prompts respect, which is a reward for expertise or specialty.

Trust: Difficult to measure, trust is a key trait in relationships. Trust is the firm belief in the reliability, truthfulness, or ability of someone.

Affinity: A natural liking or sympathy for someone or something.

Frequency: The rate a social object, topic, or person materializes in social streams.

Period: The length or portion of time it remains visible after the initial appearance.

Amplitude: The level of engagement within a network.

How Social Capital Becomes Influence

Page 49: [Slides] The Rise of Digital Influence, with Brian Solis

A person’s stature within each network can directly affect behavior or cause an effect.

Page 50: [Slides] The Rise of Digital Influence, with Brian Solis
Page 51: [Slides] The Rise of Digital Influence, with Brian Solis

The size of networks to cause effect is irrelevant. The idea that only large networks can cause effect is a myth. –David Armano, Executive Vice President, Edelman Digital

Page 52: [Slides] The Rise of Digital Influence, with Brian Solis

Engagement becomes a form of currency:The goal is to have influentials spend social capital on your brand
