Some movie company used social media marketing to promote their latest movie and video. And they can get massive number of viewers and earn instant cash. They also use the advantage of social media sites like Facebook and Twitter to spread their projects.

Social media have been a great impact in marketing since 2000. Social media marketing is best for international business. Both social media marketing and traditional marketing are good. Doing both of these in your business will be a great help.

Re: Community Manager vs. Conversation Manager

Mohammed Al-Taee, PMP — Thu, 06 May 2010 10:39:16 -0000

Hi Patrick,

I just tweet a question for my friends to see my manager title! I got all of these titles which means I'm Community, Conversation and SM manager.

Even these roles are new to us and the responsibilities are still in the development but I think by some how we are doing most of them.

I can easily say I'm SM Manager as I'm doing SM coaching, blogging, fan pages administration, etc.

Kind of same role as SM but more on engaging fans and customer on conversations so I'm conversation manager.

I'm thinking my Blog readers, Twitter followers, offline friends, etc. as my community so we are managing them everyday.

I'm trying to simplify the roles so let me know where we disagree?

Re: Community Manager vs. Conversation Manager

Patrick Attallah — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 17:35:52 -0000

Hello Mark.

I agree.
Community management itself is a sensitive subject in the social media arena. Some believe that to be authentic and to grow properly online communities, it should be as completely self-organized and “unmanaged” as possible.
Others believe that there must be some central oversight and support, especially in a business context.

I like when you say: 'The role is to not only funnel feedback back into the company, but to purvey the Voice of the Customer and coordinate actions.'

We believe at 90:10 that businesses have their role to play: to create something inviting to communities (consumers) and to curate their ideas. I recommend reading my previous post 'Co-Creation is more than just a philosophy!' (Let the Crowd Shape You) http://bit.ly/cVNTDx.
Best.

Hi Patrick,

Interesting indeed, but as a sign of the times it shows the level of engagement companies in general are comfortable with currently (low...).

I'd add another category, which is the Director of Community (see an interesting description here http://altitudebranding.com/20.... The role is to not only funnel feedback back into the company, but to purvey the Voice of the Customer and coordinate actions.

In my opinion it is vain to think the community can be managed: I would say you can facilitate the conversation, but if you manage in the old command & control style, the people in your community may just leave the home you have provided them with and take their conversation elsewhere.

Cheers,
Mark

Patrick, bonjour...

There is no dout that harnessing the value of Social Media websites can bring huge value to a business. But in my view, most businesses (interested in Social Media) get it wrong from the start.

Here is a video that will give you an indication of a somewhat contrary approach (I'm afraid it's almost 10 minutes long)

That's why I kind of like Mercy - although their characters could use a little more depth and the script (at least for the pilot) is very two-dimensional.

Seven in ten Americans (70%) feel it’s “important for me to always be accessible” and nearly eight in ten (78%) feel they are constantly connected with family, friends, and colleagues, regardless of physical location.

Many people I know also feel disconnected if the don't have a mobile phone, web access and e-mail on within easy reach at anytime.

Re: How Effective are Video Ads On Social Media Sites?

hdproductions — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 18:57:21 -0000

I find both video and rich media ads to be effective depending on how they are executed and relevant. On the otherhand some rich media ad such as the expanded banner rollover can be really annoying.
