Twitter Weekly Updates for 2009-08-06

  • http://tinyurl.com/nn49ag Twitter Hasn't 'Jumped the Shark' and probably never will – Great insight into what makes #Twitter different #
  • #smchat greetings all #
  • #smchat Q0 UK based business and marketing strategy with a bit of the geek on the side :) #
  • 101 Basics for RoI – 1. Define what you want to measure 2. Establish a baseline 3. Measure (but Basic not = simple) #smchat #
  • Have dedicated landing pages and use web analytics to track caused traffic, attribute source tags and follow through biz #smchat #
  • Brand and message recall (awareness) research is undertaken by media based marketing folk #smchat #
  • @ajmunn Broadcast and "mass audience feedback" for the info gathering also gd for peer 2 peer n/w'ing :) #smchat #
  • actually some orgs have questioned cost of email to business productivity – too distracting and have tested no-email days #smchat #
  • Personally I am not sure the 'cost' if doing SM will feature on most businesses measurement radar but impact will #smchat #
  • However incompetent use of SM WILL Cost the business in brand and market awarenesss q.v. Habitat (UK Retailer) #smchat #
  • I liken SM in mktg to using chump in game fishing – stimulates the 'fishes' ready to be hooked :) #smchat #
  • SM for listening and networking have different metaphors :/ #smchat #
  • RoI issues only really happen when value is hard to see i.e. 'Late adopters just don't get it' but if impact can be shown… #smchat #
  • … then value argument becomes moot as long as cost of doing it is not too much – all good things in moderation :) #smchat #
  • btw does tweeting over 2 tweets ( … ) break the golden rule of twittering ;D /slap @PaulEllisUK #smchat #
  • A good method of measuring new things is to use cost of equivalent alternatives to achieve same objective – like opp. cost #smchat #
  • Cheers @ajmunn #smchat #
  • @ideasurge Agree with both your last 2 tweets #smchat in reply to ideasurge #
  • Is there a risk we are 'preaching to the choir' here – I feel we need some antagonists to challenge our advocacy #smchat #
  • or perhaps we need to be more 'devils advocate' in our considerations? #smchat #
  • @amysbryant exactly – but reality is always in the mix or methods hence the measurement problem #smchat #
  • Need to sign off early today. My summary thoughts are – need to establish causality to drive RoI and compare v alternatives #smchat #
  • Best approach IMHO is establish pilot with defined biz objectives then implement competently, measure, prove then expand #smchat #
  • and in true Top Gear styler – On that bombshell I say goodnight :) #smchat #
