Content
companies use
should be
customized for that
group so that each
group feels
important. That way
a consumer can
follow on Twitter,
Facebook, and by
email and not be
overloaded with the
same information.”
45. Content
• Consider humanizing
your content
• Pull in social content
• Pull in user generated
content
• Tweets
• Reviews
• Connect your brand
• Speak using a voice and
not in marketing speak.

• Website traffic generated by social links
• Number of comments or discussions on FB or
LinkedIn from content delivered via email
• Social sharing rates
• Opt in rates from social sign up forms
• CTR’s on social buttons in email templates
• Subscriber referral value
57. Final Thoughts
• Social/Email integration is evolving, don’t emulate everyone else
• Message each channel differently
• Sharing is emotional. Give them a REALLY GOOD reason to share
• SWYN may not be right for your email program
• Find ways for channels to work FOR one another
• Move beyond the button
• EVERYONE is in this together. Work as a team
• Social & email integration is a business description, not a
technical one
• Accept that it is channels working together on content, timing
and execution….for a common goal
