Digital Voice

Benefits of applying a ‘New World’ online strategy …

Website becomes targeted, strategic and focused on role!

Conversation building occurs in blog environment with greater reach.

Short-form (attached) content gains attention and builds network.

Advocates build ‘fan-base’ and engage permission charged audiences.

Bridge from corporate messaging to viral conversations is created.

Collective and compounding ‘networks effects’ should result.

Control: You need to let go (a little) …

Digital Control

“Forget your brand. You don’t own it because

it is literally nothing. You can spend all sorts of time and money trying to

manufacture public opinion, but ultimately, that’s up to

the public, now isn’t it?”

From “10 reasons why your audience doesn’t like you” Pam Moore

Uses and Behaviours

Not engaging

Not providing value

Not following back

Website stinks

All about you

Don’t know the real you

You’re afraid

Not a good friend

Right tone and methods for the medium

Give to receive (it’s a network)

Make mutual connections (it’s a network)

The journey ends somewhere, make sure it counts

Address the needs of the audience not your own

Authentic and transparent (it’s a network)

Sitting in the corner is mistaken for disengagement

People want to like you, don’t give them a reason not to!

It’s your network, do it your way. But here are some thoughts …

In Practice – Twitter

Use a picture, preferably the key person (Avatar)

Build a network, generally bigger is better (Followers)

Follow back, its a network (Following)

Use public list and/or private groups (Housekeeping)

Find your applications (Desktop, Mobile, Specialist)

Link to your other properties but mix it up! (Engage)

Think about search – use #hastags

Learn behaviors (RT LOL #FF)

Word order matters!
