How to Use This Consulting Playbook
This playbook consists of six stages, each with a description, steps,
and action items. Action items include using our premium tools and

opportunities

7SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING PLAN
What Is Social Media Marketing?
Social media marketing refers to the process of
gaining website traffic or attention through social media
sites. Social media programs usually center on efforts
to create content that attracts attention and encourages
readers to share it with their social networks.
A corporate message spreads from user to user and
presumably resonates because it appears to come from
a trusted, third-party source, as opposed to the brand
or company itself. Hence, this form of marketing is
driven by word-of-mouth, meaning it primarily results in
earned media rather than paid media.
Among other reasons, social media marketing is
popular because it’s inexpensive, easily accessible,
fosters brand awareness and can help improve
customer service.

If you are currently using a Marketing Automation system
or Inbound Marketing software, vendors are making it easy
to share and syndicate your content across various social
networks, track the inbound traffic, and measure the results
of your campaigns.

Among other things, social listening (aka Social Media Moni-
toring – SMM) tools crawl blogs and social networks for brand
mentions and enable companies to build communities and
engage with their customers.
Building an effective SMM strategy will take place over the
next two steps and will require that you:
Step 6: Determine what you should be listening for
Step 7: Select the appropriate social media monitoring tools
Make a list of keywords and phrases you want to regularly
monitor online.
First, you need to understand what you will be listening for.
A few common topics of conversation that you’ll want to
monitor include:
Discussions about your brand (products & services,
campaigns, brand name, inquiries, etc.)
Discussions about the competition (share of voice, share
of sentiment, complaints, etc.)
Industry discussions (terms, thought-leaders, products &
services, reviews, etc.)

  • 7. 7SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING PLAN What Is Social Media Marketing? Social media marketing refers to the process of gaining website traffic or attention through social media sites. Social media programs usually center on efforts to create content that attracts attention and encourages readers to share it with their social networks. A corporate message spreads from user to user and presumably resonates because it appears to come from a trusted, third-party source, as opposed to the brand or company itself. Hence, this form of marketing is driven by word-of-mouth, meaning it primarily results in earned media rather than paid media. Among other reasons, social media marketing is popular because it’s inexpensive, easily accessible, fosters brand awareness and can help improve customer service. Identify Objectives Establish Governance Analyze Stakeholders Select Technology Complete Your Plan 1 2 3 4 5 6 Introduction Launch Your Program What Is the Social Media Strategy Workbook? As you proceed through this playbook, you will come across Action Items and Key Deliverables. Generally speaking, both of these items involve using a tool or template from the Demand Metric Toolkit to conduct an evaluation, complete an exercise or to map a process. The Key Deliverable of this playbook is the Social Media Strategy Workbook which will be used to outline, summarize and to communi- cate your social media strategy plan using the following tabs: 1. Project Purpose 2. Social Media Objectives 3. Channel Scorecard Social Media Strategy Workbook V I E W R E S O U R C E
