6. 1. Social Media Landscape - the ‘oasis’
Upstream traffic from social
media now exceeds email.
Robin Goad, Hitwise director of
research, said:
“The growth of social
networking, online video and
the continuing popularity of
news websites has meant that
an increasing proportion of
consumers’ online time in the
UK has been devoted to online
media”.
8. 2. Retail Uses - Marketing
– ASOS Magazine
– “Just a magazine”
within the
Facebook browser
– No retail
capability
– No product
selection
– Very ‘old
fashioned’,
publishing
approach
9. 2. Retail Uses - Marketing
– Nike has a better
use:
– engages user
in participation
– uses voting
and viral
dissemination
– brand-building
– a resource
– relaxed brand
voice
10. 2. Retail Uses - Being a Fan
• Compare the
meerkat!
– Sustained, in-
character
campaign
– humour
– linking video, TV,
print and web
– Viral - 376,923
fans!
11. 2. Retail Uses - Being a Fan
Awareness = up
Time on site = up
Integrated campaign.
13. 3. Retail Uses - Social Affiliates
• Integration
between site and
FB app
– Create on FB or
web
– Save/link each
way
– Share, rate, vote
– But commerce is
off-Facebook
14. 3. Retail Uses - Disappointing
• Usage is still
basic
– Lacking in
revenue and
checkout
– Limited
integration
– Some affiliates
show the way
– Facebook itself is
limiting: data,
API, ownership.

Twitter.com. 291st site in UK. 974% growth yoy.
4.5% of traffic goes to retailers... http://twitterfacts.blogspot.com/2009/01/twitter-traffic-according-to-hitwise.html
30. 4. Reviews
83.85% higher
conversion (20+
reviews)
• Reviews becoming standard
• User “stories”, not just ratings
• 78%: “customer recommendations
are the most credible form of
advertising” (Nielsen)
31. 4. Social Shopping and “co-retailing” or C2C
• Top style-setters become “Mavens” • Customers become sales-people
• Based on page views AND product • Social networks become retailers
clicks Co-shoppers as retailers (ThisNext)
34. 5. Multichannel considerations
• Configuration
• Social
• Virtual and
real...
• Can do on a
mobile phone?

36. So?
• Follow your customer - they’re using
social networks
• It’s not all about you though -
contribute, but not control
• ‘Conversational commerce’ - build
reputation, preference, brand
• Social media is greater than Facebook
- need to consider a consistent
approach and persona across channels
• Reflect your engagement on your site,
offline, by phone
• Don’t both if you’re not social and
don’t like you’re customers - it will
show!
★ Revenues are on the way...
37. Thank you.
