Notes de l'éditeur
Hi everyone, it’s an honor to be here surrounded with so many thought leaders and Marketing professionals in the Social Media industry. I hope to leave you today with some ammunition to help you approve various social media programs that you are sponsoring for the companies you represent today.
You may have seen this in the public domain as FedEx has presented on this in the last year. They are a major client partner of Visible, and we received permission to use this brief case study. The common word you’ll notice here is CULTURE and FedEx has significantly benefited with their Social programs because they promote Social & Innovation within each division of their culture.

Josh Bernoff’s recent publication Empowered is a masterful collection of the brand loyalty, viral buzz, and improved customer experiences that result from empowering CSR managers and individual agentsSocial CRM/Social Servicing programs cannot stand alone – they must connect to other corporate Cust Svc programs internally to create a consistent experience and expectations of your consumer baseThe American Red Cross & Dogfish brewing story is a great example of the sometimes unexpected benefits of being honest and accountable that will naturally result from the major exposure created by Social MediaThe ROI of Social Servicing has been proven – but you MUST understand the important metrics you are measuring and trying to improve. There’s a ton of activity around Engagement/Social Media outreach but you’ll continue to fund and expand more internal Social programs by intelligenty measuring and improving the metrics that are impacted by Social Servicing & EngagementFinally a misconception exists today that major companies must replace their talent base with young professionals with expertise in using Social Media tools and applications. Although this can be beneficial…..focus on preserving your culture and the employee base who truly understands your BRAND and Customer Service best practices. The talent base can adapt to new applications/technologies and prevents you from experiencing very high $$$ in training, re-educating, and immersing a completely new talent base.
