One useful metaphor to describe community managers job could be to start with the empty room story. We are the first (or a very few people) to start the movement. Then, a crowded room doesn't necessarily mean that the movement is successful.

An interesting conversation with Alex Bogusky and the Digital ECD at CP+B.
Liked this post mucho grande. Finding clients are more receptive to social media ideas but there's still seems to be a lack of understanding about how they really work, and a reluctance to learn more. People calling the shots aren't very active on social media and the result is watered-down, at best. Sort of a "we checked off the social media box" type of thinking but not paying attention to how each individual channels operate. And assuming people are out there waiting to post about their product. Why will they post? Because we told them to. "See? Third line of copy? Post on Facebook. Twitter. And Flickr. Our shit is going to blow up."
via @BBHLabs - Speaking of understanding social media, highly recommend them, a dynamic, intriguing and educational Twitter feed.

The right conversation strategy answers two big questions: What meaningful content will attract sufficient conversations with the right people? And, how will you jump-start conversations and keep them alive?
When people are starved for time and already engaged in many conversations, jump-starting new and meaningful conversations is the big challenge of marketing today. Just building a website, writing a blog or posting videos on YouTube doesn't mean sufficient numbers to impact ROI will find them organically, much less take the time and energy to converse with you. By definition a conversation requires others to be present and participate -- otherwise you're talking to yourself. Perhaps therapeutic, but no way to make a living.
Even if people know there's an opportunity to have a conversation with you -- on Twitter or your blog, for instance -- you can't expect them to engage given all the other demands on their time. You'll need a strategy that both gets them to know you exist and care so much that you exist, they'll become intrigued about conversing with you. This requires a strategy that integrates search optimization, media, message and contributions of content from consumers.
The right strategy begins with the end in mind: What message can work across multiple platforms and be scaled so quickly and broadly it can drive sufficient revenues to support a business model?
Very few companies have the luxury to let conversations build slowly over time. And no business can afford to risk a high-waste and low-impact effort. More often than not, high-impact campaigns with reasonable returns don't materialize solely from online ads and social media. Traditional media must be a major component of the mix.
Stefan Olander, Nike's global director of brand connections, noted at Lindsay, Stone & Briggs' Brandworks University 2009 that many of Nike's online campaigns received overwhelming response at launch. Colleagues at Nike were excited about the prospect of dropping expensive traditional media campaigns in favor of these successful digital campaigns. Olander reminded them that, despite how well-known the Nike brand is, to optimize online conversations they still must jump-start initiatives with traditional media.
That's because traditional media can do what social media cannot: aggressively interject messages into people's lives in a socially acceptable way. Research conducted by the Advertising Research Foundation indicates that messages delivered by TV may, in fact, be the fastest and most cost-efficient means to jump-start productive conversations in the digital and real worlds.
Experts at the World Advertising Research Center have also studied what it takes to optimize engagement in a conversation economy. They recommend this media priority:
A multimedia mix framed to spark conversations requires a compelling message concept that can work across a multimedia platform. Its foundation has to be far more than a one-time promotion or product attribute; it must be a message strategy that connects brand meaning with search habits and accommodates ongoing contributions that can range from casual conversations to consumer-generated content.
This is a tall order, but not impossible. That's because the solution can be found in the motivations of the conversationalists themselves. Some psychologists say that people subconsciously come to a conversation with a desire to be changed by them. This makes sense. Conversation is mankind's natural search engine.
What are we searching for? Swiss psychologist Carl Jung identified 12 universal human motivations, called archetypes. Messages that speak to one of these discrete motivations naturally engage consumers and fuel conversations for many reasons:
So how do you keep the conversation going? You'll constantly be competing with other conversations for your target's time and attention. So, spark and fuel conversations with surveys, forums, contests and invitations for contributions that pertain to the change your brand's products and services can help people achieve. Keeping ongoing conversations fresh is where contextual ads, blogs, websites, videos and social media shine.
Content themed to your target's daily passions, routines or rituals are great for habituating conversations. And, habituated conversations have the greatest opportunity to generate ongoing revenue and almost unbreakable customer loyalty.
For marketers who get their brand's meaning and conversation strategy right, consumers will take over the conversation for you, making your marketing more proficient, and making you a genius in your new role of chief conversation officer.
Om maar weer eens aan te geven dat Crossmedia ook in deze Social Media world nog steeds de basis is van een goede strategie.
