Notes de l'éditeur
- Everything is changing. Again.Especially the appearance and empowerment of myriad new stakeholders ...
- ... individuals with opinions about our brands, our company, our people, all the things important to us. And they’re online sharing those opinions, good and bad, with their friends and communities.Who are these new stakeholders? Should we engage with them? Where? How? And when we do, then what?Good questions, ones that this guide to effective engagement online is designed to help you answer.
- You’ll notice that there are so many places where these new stakeholders hang out. And there are so many new ways those stakeholders use to communicate and engage with others.We need to know those places and understand those ways, too. Once we have confidence that we can connect with others in ways they prefer, we can then decide how we want to engage.
- One thing we’re seeing happening all around us is how anyone with a connection to the internet can create and share content as well as consume it. The notion of the ‘passive consumer’ is being swept away by shifts in behaviours in society as well as by technological advances.Today, everyone has the opportunity to do that. Every one of you, if you wish, can publish your thoughts on the web, and not just in text form – you can also choose audio or video. It’s a level playing field now – everyone has the same opportunity to be heard and to engage, whether you’re an individual or a global corporation.
- There are many conversations happening online. If the talk is about our brands, our company, our people, any of the things important to us, we ought to be there, too. That way, we have a chance to understand who’s saying what and add our voice to those conversations. By joining in, we might even be able to influence people’s opinions.That, in fact, is a key objective: influencing opinions.
- What’s in a name?You’ll hear each of these talked about. From our points of view, they all broadly mean the same thing: the software tools, online channels and services that enable people to connect easily, informally and socially, even in a business sense.
- Probably the best way to see it all.Do you agree?
- What’s happening with social media is a large piece of the jigsaw puzzle that includes the human aspect of behaviour changes.This is a snapshot of increasingly-typical social behaviours. Do you recognize yourself here in any of these?
- The business trends are equally clear, especially today as we begin to emerge from the recession that’s gripped us for the past few years.People are looking to find more effective ways to connect with customers and others, at less cost and that offer more potential for value to be created more quickly from those connections.
- There’s a lot of talk about the media world needing to change. The newspaper publishers, TV and radio broadcasters are all trying to figure out their survival models for the future as news and information becomes more widely available online, with content produced by people who aren’t part of that mainstream.People like any of us.The reality is – the media world has already changed. We should think of this media world as just one world: it doesn’t matter whether it’s online or offline, as long as we know which conversations to join. More on that in a few minutes.
- This is what drives conversations online in the tech world. Of the 25 sites you see here, over three-quarters didn’t exist just 5 years ago (they’re blogs).
- Extend that thinking about the new media world into our industry area. While there isn’t an equivalent to theTechmemeLeaderboard, we have aggregators like Pharmatweetical that connects different Twitter accounts by people focused in our industry area.Arguably, that’s also the new media now.
- -
- Once we understand how things have changed, it become easier to understand what we need to do.The critical imperative? Engaging in the conversation. Is there an effective way to do that? We’ll get to that very soon.
- Let’s look at rule number 4: The customer is in control. Do you agree?
- We may know who our customers are but do we know where they are, why they’re there and, so, where we need to be?And why should we care? After all, we can reach out to them with our messages in ways that have worked for years. Right?
- Not really. Not any longer.Our customers are like increasing numbers of other people today. Whether in business or just being people, we all want greater meaning from our connections. We all have opinions and we want to share what we think, and our experiences, with others.At no time in history has it been as easy to do this as it is now. Saying what you think is as easy as typing some words or recording an audio or video, and getting online.Consider these situations. Ask yourself the questions. How do you answer?These situations are real and illustrate precisely what we’re facing every day, and why we need to pay close attention to understanding our customers’ behaviors online.
- Yes, the key word most repeated is: Listen.Above all else, listening is paramount. It’s what you do before you start or conduct any engagement activity online, from leaving simple comments on a blog or typing your comments in Twitter, to a deeper relationship-building exercise with a prominent influencer.Listening lets you discover who’s saying what – useful knowledge in planning how to engage effectively, before you start to engage.
- Just as in real life, there are codes and rules that govern human behavior online. Understanding these is key to how successful you will be in your interactions with other people.We’ve broken this broad area down into four related topics:Listening – What is being said and by whom? Before you engage, you need to know what the playing field looks like.Etiquette – Some simple steps, ideals to keep in mind before engaging in an online dialogue.Disclosure – Tell people who you are. Who you really are. Yes, that you work for Pfizer.Engagement – Posting content or replies online:Do’s and Don’ts.
- Listening is an essential starting point for engagement, which gives you a chance to understand where the starting point actually is.For instance, knowing that there are many and varied conversations going on about Brand X lets you make some specific plans for your engagement to address topics and issues.On the other hand, if there is little or no conversation about Brand X, your approach would be different: you’re likely to continue monitoring to see if opportunities for engagement may present themselves at a future time.Think about the Motrin example we talked about earlier. What differences in outcomes do you think might have occurred if the Motrin communicators had been listening?
- Listening will help you make some important decisions on what to pay attention to, who to pay attention to, and what to do about it.
