Brands Talk rather than Listen or Converse

         3,000 messages every day, 188 every hour, 3 every minute
         The ratio of listening to talking is 1 to 50 (*)
         …still brands believe they are « customer centric »

What are the Consequences?

             Talk Less, Engage More!
  Networked consumers will create more content, speak more about
  you than any media time you will ever buy be able to buy!



  You still need Content:
     A Big Idea and the ability to « Empower » Consumers to Talk
      about you/for you…

     Move your Marketing beyond « delivering impressions » to
      « Generating Consumer Expressions »
Coca-Cola Marketing Shifts from Impressions to Expressions (*)


         The prevaling role of « Big Ideas »
         Accept that consumers can generate more messages than you
             ever could

         Develop content that is « Liquid and Linked »
         Accept you don’t fully own your brand; your consumers do
         Speak up to set your record straight, but give your fans a chance
             to do it so first

   Let’s go back in Time... The Coke/Mentos Story…

Coca-Cola/Mentos Story (2006)
         So succesful that Mentos Bought the initial video… and organized
             the mentosgeyers.com even to maximize consumer engagement.

         Although the Coca Cola team’s reaction was blasé (it did not project
             the right image, they said), the executives at Mentos were elated (*).
             Mentos' advertising budget is usually USD 20 million a year, and
             company officials estimate they have generated at least half
             that in free name recognition as a result of the viral video. Sales
             climbed 20 percent during the first viral tsunami, and even after
             the commotion died down, they remained 15 percent higher
             than they had been.

Succes, Yes in a way…BUT…
  +55% in sale during the first 3 months of campaign run, soared by
  107% aound the time the response videos started…BUT….

  P&G « run a Campaign » rather than a « relationship with its Fans »
  … to humanize its business and ensure long-term relationships
  with their customers…

  …As of September 2010, the brand had over 120,000 followers on
  Twitter that it do not connect with… 2 months after its active push
  on Twitter, only 23 tweets, with no personal tweet sent to any
  followers…

    Relathionship has a cost that goes « beyond a campaign »
Toward Consumer Engagement…


    Accept that consumers can generate more messages than you
    ever could

    Develop content that is « Liquid and Linked »
    Accept you don’t fully own your brand; your consumers do
    Speak up to set your record straight, but give your fans a
    chance to do it so first
    Integrate Touchpoints Across the Consumer Journey
    Relationship has a cost: be « Always On »!
