RT @BoomerangHotels: @LisaPetrilli @dgcattaneo By far the biggest challenge! I want people to know there's a person behind the brand #sm138
@LisaPetrilli As an introvert, use the social media tools that tap into your strengths, think this is a reason why we love blogging #sm138
@threeThou Ah, good example of turning a negative into a positive! The goodwill will be worth far more than cost of free ketchup #sm138
@BarbBuckner Everything you do on SM impacts. I've lost work cause co saw I wasn't tweeting as much, assumed I was too busy to help #sm138
@BarbBuckner @LisaPetrilli I think a lot of people also don't realize that tweets here can be seen by recruiters #sm138
Which example is this? RT @threeThou: @MackCollier Heinz is a great example. They addressed & made up for their mistake #sm138
@JeremyKimball I don't think Netflix was completely honest with customers, tried to spin price increase as pos for customers #sm138
@JeremyKimball I don't think Netflix was completely honest with customers, tried to spin price increase as pos for customers #sm138
It definitely does online RT @LisaPetrilli: Ok, getting into the meat: Q2 - Does social media level the playing field for introverts? #sm138
@LisaPetrilli Social Media helps customers see themselves in companies, if they use the tools for open communication. That's huge #sm138
@LisaPetrilli One thing companies need to understand is that we will FORGIVE mistakes if admitted & corrected. We appreciate honesty #sm138
Seems like good goal! RT @AppleBoxStudios: @MackCollier there's a term for honest and authentic people-their called "good people" #sm138
@LisaPetrilli But for companies, they need to understand that customers want open communication, even if they dont expect it #sm138

@LisaPetrilli @martinjason Yes I think many cos that use social media via it as marketing/PR tool, so they want to portray an 'image' #sm138
@LisaPetrilli @martinjason Yes I think many cos that use social media via it as marketing/PR tool, so they want to portray an 'image' #sm138
@JonathanSaar If you use social media to create image that you are a 'good guy' & you are asshole in person, then... #sm138
@LisaPetrilli I think it all starts with companies speaking in a conversational and open tone. Speak w voice of customers #sm138
@LisaPetrilli I am extroverted online, but introverted offline, I let people know this to avoid confusion if we meet #socialmedia #sm138
@LisaPetrilli No, people create the false image. Be yourself and be consistent online and offline, that's all it takes. #socialmedia #sm138

@JTDabbagian @phillhocking My point was that being a good writer doesn't guarantee you will be a good blogger, and vice versa #sm123

@JTDabbagian You don't have to be a great writer to be a great blogger, not the same thing always #sm123
@lttlewys Right, great content needs other elements to support it, customer outreach, for example #sm123
@lttlewys Right, great content needs other elements to support it, customer outreach, for example #sm123
#sm123 And don't forget that the content you create will be improved the more you interact with your customers & learn their wants/needs
Saying that all you need is great content to have a successful blog is like saying all you need is lottery tickets to be rich #sm123
#SM123 I think creating great content is a start, you also need to interact with your customers/market in THEIR space to build awareness
@FuelOnline I absolutely get the importance of search, but if u want to use blog to build awareness, you can't rely on content alone #sm123

@FuelOnline Right but you can't just rely on 'being discovered' either, gotta fish where the fish are, spend time WITH your customers #sm123
@FuelOnline #sm123 content is great, but if no one knows about it, it will die on the vine, gotta get connected with others as well

@neicolec Going through chemo is an extremely personal circumstance for person & family. I would use passionate ppl to reach them #sm89
@neicolec I think the prob with influencers is their passion can be increasing rooted in being used as channel, not for products #sm89
@ShellyKramer The beauty of social media is its a great way to promote products/services very effectively with customer-centric focus #sm89

@techguerilla @danperezfilms @ShellyKramer Well that opens a can of words I dont want to get into here ;) #sm89

@Twylah I think too many companies sell their product, instead of selling what their product can DO FOR ME. Think HOW I will use it #sm89
@danperezfilms @ShellyKramer Depends on if ur message resonates. But an evangelist is PASSIONATE about message, moreso than influencer #sm89
@neicolec Give me an example of influence over a micro-niche. Wouldn't a micro-niche be LESS susceptible to influencers? #sm89

@neicolec Give me an example of influence over a micro-niche. Wouldn't a micro-niche be LESS susceptible to influencers? #sm89
@ShellyKramer Yes. I don't think appealing to influencers only is a sustainable promotions strategy #sm89
@danperezfilms Yes but no one can be influential over everyone. #sm89
@ShellyKramer Bingo, was my point to @danperezfilms, if they are evangelizing a message/idea that resonates w YOU, then very effective #sm89
@danperezfilms Yes but no one can be influential over everyone. #sm89
@ShellyKramer Bingo, was my point to @danperezfilms, if they are evangelizing a message/idea that resonates w YOU, then very effective #sm89
@ShellyKramer If you don't love the people that love you, why would they stick around? #sm89
@danperezfilms Right but evangelists will always connect with people that can or do share the same passion #sm89
@ShellyKramer I do think influencers have value, they help you get out to a larger audience BUT you *need* fans & need to LOVE them #sm89
@ShellyKramer I do think influencers have value, they help you get out to a larger audience BUT you *need* fans & need to LOVE them #sm89
@seophx Word. Very different groups, I think influencers are for short-term buzz, evangelists/fans are for long-term survival #sm89
@Marc_Meyer I think an influencer could ALSO be an evangelist or advocate, but def dont agree with using the terms interchangably. #sm89
@shellykramer Thanks for the mention ;) #sm89

@khaughwout We don't 'throw sheep' anymore via #socialmedia, do we? ;) #sm85
@danperezfilms For ex: @andrewmueller and I had a disagreement over what a community is, then discussed it. That rawks ;) #sm85
@danperezfilms Disagreement is cool, as long as you explain WHY you are disagreeing & how to improve, vs saying 'here we go again!' #sm85
@danperezfilms Disagreement is cool, as long as you explain WHY you are disagreeing & how to improve, vs saying 'here we go again!' #sm85
@chrissfife Also, many cos say that X number of fans or followers equals 'success' in SM. Metrics need to match the goals. #sm85
@chrissfife Also, many cos say that X number of fans or followers equals 'success' in SM. Metrics need to match the goals. #sm85
@khaughwout I would quibble and say #socialmedia are communication channels through which marketing can be done. #sm85
@danperezfilms @richbecker Disagreement is cool, as long as someone is actually offering the stance that you disagree with ;) #sm85
@livepath Well that's what *I* would think :) Just want cos to actually THINK about what they want to do via social media #sm85
@danperezfilms So improve the conversation. Bashing it wastes everyone's time. #sm85
@danperezfilms @richbecker Disagreement is cool, as long as someone is actually offering the stance that you disagree with ;) #sm85
@danperezfilms So improve the conversation. Bashing it wastes everyone's time. #sm85
@danperezfilms And many people think if you offer even the slightest praise to #socialmedia, that you are also slamming all Trad MKTG. #sm85
@danperezfilms @richbecker But why assume you are talking to someone that thinks in a certain way that you dislike? #sm85
@chrissfife For ex: If I say that might company should shoot for 5 comments per post on blog, why? Why that engagement metric? #sm85
@danperezfilms Not really, if you don't offer valuable contributions, people will tune you out. #sm85
@chrissfife I am thinking of the ways you measure that engagement, that should tie back to your strategy/goals, disagree? #sm85
@danperezfilms No, but since this is a #socialmedia chat, guess what area we are focused on ;) #sm85
@danperezfilms No, but since this is a #socialmedia chat, guess what area we are focused on ;) #sm85
The great thing about social media is that it makes things happen INdirectly. Engagement can INdirectly lead to sales. And should. #sm85
@danperezfilms Yes, your tweet seemed to suggest that we should use the word 'sales' instead of 'engagement' for this chat, I disagree #sm85
@chrissfife I think each company needs to tie back the type of engagement it wants to what it is trying to accomplish via SM #sm85
@chrissfife That ties into the final one for today - Q3: Should the type of engagement you want be tied back to your SM strategy? #sm85
@danperezfilms I think the engagement indirectly creates the sales, right? #sm85
@ckieff THAT might be the most insightful think I've seen, individuals do well with SM moreso than company-wide efforts #sm85
@danperezfilms Dan if you have a problem with the word, offer a better solution. We are listening but 'here we go again!' wastes time #sm85
@ckieff THAT might be the most insightful think I've seen, individuals do well with SM moreso than company-wide efforts #sm85
Am I the only one noticing that we have very few examples of companies that do a good job of social media engagement? #sm85
@danperezfilms Dan if you have a problem with the word, offer a better solution. We are listening but 'here we go again!' wastes time #sm85
Am I the only one noticing that we have very few examples of companies that do a good job of social media engagement? #sm85
@danperezfilms In the context of companies trying to connect with customers via social media, what terms are better? #sm85
@ckieff I think that's the Catch-22, people to people is better but few companies are brave enough to let customers advocate for them #sm85
@danperezfilms What are better words to use? What is wrong with those words? #sm85
Q2: What are some of your fav examples of companies that do a good job with social media engagement? #sm85
@danperezfilms What are better words to use? What is wrong with those words? #sm85
Q2: What are some of your fav examples of companies that do a good job with social media engagement? #sm85
@andrewmueller Values play a role, but I think it also matters if YOU think you are playing a role in the development of the chat. #sm85
@andrewmueller So if someone said that this chat was going to go away unless you didn't do something, would you do nothing? #sm85
@andrewmueller For ex: a ton of people participate in #blogchat each week, some want to see the group benefit, others just themselves #sm85
@andrewmueller Participation doesn't automatically make you a member of a community, IMO. It has to be more about the group than you. #sm85
@andrewmueller That's like living in an area code vs being involved in the community. #sm85
Now let's move onto 2nd area Q2: What are some examples of companies who have done a good job of building SM engagement? #sm85
@khaughwout Listening only works if you react appropriately to what you are hearing. Listening alone isn't enough. #sm85
@bethb_wilson Hey Beth ;) Thanks for checking in! #sm85
@khaughwout Listening only works if you react appropriately to what you are hearing. Listening alone isn't enough. #sm85
@andrewmueller I think the people that self-identify as a member of a community have an investment IN that group. No weak ties #sm85
@RichBecker @ckieff That's a great point if someone is reading my blog every day but never comment, are they still engaged? I think so #sm85
@andrewmueller Give me an example of your idea of the exception. #sm85
@RichBecker Right, you don't HAVE to have engagement to have a successful social media initiative. #sm85
So when we are thinking about creating engagement, a big part of it really is 'what's in it for them?'. Creating value still matters #sm85
@RichBecker Right, you don't HAVE to have engagement to have a successful social media initiative. #sm85
@andrewmueller So I agree with your point, and love it ;) #sm85
@andrewmueller I think communities are a group of people that have a shared sense of ownership in something larger than themselves. #sm85
@andrewmueller So I agree with your point, and love it ;) #sm85
@JoeKikta Joe if there is NO chatter about you/your company that means you can CREATE the online convo, instead of reacting to it! #sm85
@RichBecker Good point Rich, does that also mean thinking about how THEY will benefit from engaging? Value created for them? #sm85
@khaughwout Ah love that you are thinking about a STRATEGY! And you're right, something as simple as Google Alerts works! #sm85
@RichBecker Good point Rich, does that also mean thinking about how THEY will benefit from engaging? Value created for them? #sm85
So tying back to @CoryOBrien's great point, once people start connecting w you, empower them to help connect you to THEIR networks #sm85
@khaughwout Ah love that you are thinking about a STRATEGY! And you're right, something as simple as Google Alerts works! #sm85
So tying back to @CoryOBrien's great point, once people start connecting w you, empower them to help connect you to THEIR networks #sm85
@khaughwout What if I'm not sure where my customers are spending time online, or with what tools? How to figure that out? #sm85
@khaughwout What if I'm not sure where my customers are spending time online, or with what tools? How to figure that out? #sm85
@CoryOBrien BOOM! You just nailed it, as you begin to engage & build advocates for your efforts, empower THEM to promote for you! #sm85
@ckieff And the discussion builds awareness for you, right? Smart thinking! #sm85
@chrissfife So does that mean figuring out what they are looking for and WHERE they are looking for it? #sm85
@chrissfife Love that you are thinking about making sure your activities invite engagement & that you give people options! #sm85
@chrissfife So does that mean figuring out what they are looking for and WHERE they are looking for it? #sm85
@KTcaroline Twitter is a great way to connect with people individually, how do you decide it's where you should be? #sm85

@BethHarte Agree but at the same time, understanding how to market effectively w other tools doesn't mean you know how to w SM #socialmedia
@JGoldsborough Yes but I think that company needs to have a culture that's open to change. Many cos don't have this. #socialmedia
@BethHarte I agree, the culture has to be in place, but SM enables the right culture to shine #socialmedia
RT @WriterChanelle: I would ask what are the characteristics in you that make you enjoy SM? Identify those in candidates. #socialmedia
@ConversationAge But I also don't think you can 'push' SM on employees that don't want to participate. Passion has to be there #socialmedia

Guys I am going to have to cut out now, but I loved getting to host #socialmedia today, thanks @marc_meyer & @jasonbreed for letting me!
@BlazeDaDragon I think you need to decide if you have the people/culture for SM, and if your customers are actively using SM #socialmedia
BTW guys if you still want to talk about the first two #socialmedia ?s here they are - http://hashtagsocialmedia.com/
@EdisonsMother Great question, perhaps pointing toward successful case studies, esp any in your same industry? #socialmedia
@LindsayLebresco Sounds like a long approval process, eh? That can make meaningful communication via SM more difficult #socialmedia
@JLangford I agree on ROI/Bottom line, but if CEOs understand social media, I think their ROI goals are far more realistic #socialmedia
@EdisonsMother @dariasteigman #socialmedia Agree in support from top down, but what if SM evangelists in middle can convince CEO?
