CROSS-COMPANY “SYMPHONY” BLACKLIST
http://www.nbcpromotions.com/Digital/launch14/Blacklist_s2/on_air/video5.html
LET’S SEE WHAT YOU THINK! LIVE POLLING
• We’re going to use your cell phones - just like on The Voice
• So please take them out - leave them on silent
• Simply send a message to the five digit number 22333.
• In the body of the message, you’ll text in your answer
NOTE:
• “Standard text messaging rates apply: may be free $20cents.
• In terms of privacy: we cannot see your phone numbers, and you’ll NOT receive follow-up text messages outside this presentation.
• Capitalization doesn’t matter, but spelling and spaces do
GOAL 1: UNIFY PLANNING – MARKETING STRATEGY, MEDIA AND CREATIVE
• Make sure involve all functions / areas
• Align organization or cross-functional teams and assign the right team leader
• Think through media and content investment holistically
• Ensure a focus on WOM / Earned Media as the ultimate goal, no matter what the platform
Support information flows
GOAL 2: SUPPORT INFORMATION FLOW ACROSS PLATFORMS
• Take stock of all the SYSTEMS you have, their purpose, who uses them
• Take stock of all standing MEETINGS and review purpose, structure
• Develop active document sharing (not just common folders) and project COMMUNITIES
GOAL 3: BRAINSTORM CREATIVE DEVELOPMENT ACROSS PLATFORMS
• Be clear about WHAT you are marketing – what is the story about? There are ways of going much deeper into TRULY understanding
– What KIND of story is it?
– What is the MOTIVATION behind each character?
– What is the true EMOTIONAL PITCHFORK and who will it appeal to /why?
– What are the EMOTIONAL BOUNDARIES – precisely define what is in and out of bounds so creatives (especially in Digital & Social) can react quickly to opportunities without confusing the audience about what the Story is really about”
• Create an opportunity for the creatives from each platform to brainstorm TOGETHER
• Be mindful of TIMING
GOAL 4: LEVERAGE THE TRUE INTERACTIVE NATURE OF DIGITAL PLATFORMS
• Let the platform drive the creative, as well as branding strategy or corporate
imperatives
• Create branding guidelines and set clear “emotional boundaries”
• Empower people on the front lines to react, create and publish without
excessive approvals, as long as they stay “on brand”
GOAL 5: “FEED THE DIGITAL BEAST”
• Think about ways to create “derivative content” that is in line with the brand principles, positioning and overall creative strategy
• Give your fans a view “behind the scenes” of the Brand / Product
• Your carefully crafted :30 ad is so :30 seconds ago! What’s going on RIGHT NOW that is relevant to the brand?
GOAL 6: BUILD THE RIGHT SKILLS
• Make sure you have people who live and breathe digital
• Give them a chance to mix with traditional offline strategists
• Ensure a foundation of analytical prowess as well as creative ability
• 3 must haves in the mix: mobile, mobile, mobile
GOAL 7: STAY CONNECTED & MANAGE ACROSS SILOS
• Manage the whole at the high level “calendar” level
• Let DETAILED project management happen closer to the doers
• Automate workflow planning and project tasking – make the jump from private excel documents to collaborative “LIVE” systems
TO SUMMARIZE, REMEMBER TO THINK ACROSS ORGANIZATIONAL, PROCESS AND SYSTEMS DIMENSIONS
