This presentation introcudes a framework for social media strategy and execution. The framework goes under the working name "Carl Mace TM"
The purpose is to shift the focus away from the tools (Twitter, Facebook, YouTube etc) to what really matters in interactions with other people, i.e. understanding the audience, creating remarkable content, and engaging in a conversation.
The framework also addresses three execution steps: 1) Listen and respond, 2) Engage and Activate, and 3) Measure,

We prefer to do business with people we like. It is a human reaction. To know what we can do to get “liked” we need to understand what is important to them, what triggers their emotions, and what would make them trust us.From Wikipedia, April 12, 2011:Demographics: “Commonly used demographics include gender, race, age, income, disabilities, mobility (in terms of travel time to work or number of vehicles available), educational attainment, home ownership, employment status, and even location.”“Firmographics are the characteristics of an organization especially when used to segment markets in market research. What demographics are to people, firmographics are to organizations. Commonly-used firmographics include employee size, revenue size, industry, number of locations and location of headquarters. Distributions of values within a firmographic variable, and across organizations, are both of interest, as well as trends over time.”"Psychographics is the study of personality, values, attitudes, interests, and lifestyles.”Two-stage market segmentation (Wind & Cardozo Model): Macro-segmentation centers on the characteristics of the buying organization [as whole companies or institutions] (Company / organization size, Geographic location, SIC code,Purchasing situation, Type of institution). Micro-segmentation focuses on factors that matter in the daily business; this is where “the rubber hits the road”. The most common criteria include the characteristics of the decision-making units within each macro-segment. (Buying decision criteria, Attitudes towards the supplier); http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_market_segmentation
Relevance drives resultsWikipedia:Content strategy has been described as "the practice of planning the content creation, delivery, and governance”
In the next presentation we will look at a strategic framework that helps us deploy and use the social tools in effective ways.
