Intro
Push marketing still works BUT there’s very little or no interaction.
Technology is an enabler of interaction not the solution.
You can provide the possibilities/reasons for interaction
Your target audience will decide what to do with it…react to it, comment on it, forward it, enhance it, crush it, act on it etc.
Some context before we start…

1. Understanding how to keep your message consistent
| 15
Main points to noteThe message should align to what it is you’re
providing/supportingWhat’s your keyword strategy – look at other campaigns like
email subject lines, onsite search and keyword trends, Always Be testing!
Keep it relevant, specific and actionable!who do you want to reach - persona, what do you want them to do
buy/action/promote & pass on, where are they, what's the message/call to action?,
what tools/channels for what messages? (demo/geo/behavioural), it’s here you have to be consistent on and offline
You need to be consistent with your message, but your users might change it…get over it!
| 16
Main points to noteYou can test headlines quickly with digital
and social media, so if they work online they’ll likely work offline too.
Make sure you’ve considered your onsite search too
How are you integrating media, message..AND response!
| 17
Blogs
We’re known for insight – headlines with 10’s and 20’s
(top tips) seem to go down well, everyone loves a short-cut!...
| 18
Email newsletter
Headline used in email newsletter… If headlines successful in Social channels, use in email
newsletters, ads etc. Think keywords/terms
| 19
Content distribution
Digg, Friendfeed, paper.li, StumbleUpon
etc
| 20
Users will alter your messages…
Headline, Language, phrase etc.Even tag as #failGet over it! Traffic might convert if positive.
Use Multi-channel – Email, FB, Mobile

2. Creating high impact messages via twitter, Linkedin, Facebook, blogs etc
| 23
Creating high impact messages via Twitter, Linkedin, Facebook, etc Main points to note
What do we mean by high impact messages? Is this just a numbers game or is it about engagement and resulting business from that?
Messages that create a response! Buy, download, register, reserve, comment, share, etc. Is it about awareness or sale?
Think about the channel: Twitter – micro-messages (friends, associates and business) Linkedin (business) Facebook (friends and business) Youtube (entertainment and business) etc
Test, test, test again

Blogs Econsultancy : A few examples of
posts that have done especially well use of catchy titles, lists, use of adjectives etc. Very 'retweetable'.
This was the most popular: http://econsultancy.com/uk/blog/6666-ten-horrifying-display-ad-placements-nsfw -
86,000 page views (average for a normal post would be 1-2,000), as well as 117 comments. Think about £cpm value
| 25
Blogs
Don’t forget about what’s on the landing page, options to share and contribute!
The user experience is important too
Give your users the tools to share, promote, like, etc

3. Building brand loyalty and engagement
| 32
Building brand loyalty and engagement Main points to note
First question can you? I prefer engagement to loyalty…who’s really loyal to a brand anymore?
Company brand vs ME brand, set ground rules and utilise staff for ‘power of the crowd’ effect
Find your ‘Influentials’, they build traffic and word of mouth for you
Offer them the opportunity 'Share link' social media/link building with in-built ROI like our Red Friday ('social selling') campaign
Be transparent – ‘What we're about’ presentation on Slideshare etc. http://www.slideshare.net/econsultancy/econsultancy-what-were-about-5782780
We as Econsultancy continue to engage offline as well as online – multi-channel
