21. Conversations Conversations may be taking place right now about your business, certainly about your industry. You can’t control the conversation but you can join in

22. Conversations Social Media has “democratised” media and your customers can write or create media about your product just as easily as you can

23. Conversation Your social media accounts are not a glorified e-mail list Think about the psychology of conversations

24. Conversation Interestingly the way to gain social capital is through some very old values Courtesy (even exaggerated charm) Generosity (share your knowledge freely) Well written dialogue (punctuation, grammar) Honesty (admit mistakes, apologise) Transparency (everything you do online is visible anyway)

44. Social Media Tips Unbridled (enthusiastic ?) use of social media could be a recipe for disaster. Consider a strategy. You need to build trust and this means being transparent online If you screw up – own up (and apologise profusely) Courtesy works great in social media: Praise peoples efforts, be polite and courteous, acknowledge your sources. Be honorable and humble. Consistency – decide on your publishing rate in your SM spaces and stick to it. NB – I will send you a link to this presentation so you can look through it at your leisure.

45. Social Media Policy Social Media Strategy N.B.These are not the same thing. You need to have a strategy of what tools you will use, who will use them and how you will use them. Your policy is how you will project your identity and what that identity is. In what way do you involve your colleagues or not and how will you ensure they stay within guidelines and project the proper identity. Handouts . N.B. We can help you with your Strategy and your Policy in bespoke sessions for your organisation.
