Presentation to Direct Marketing Association, October 2009. Thanks to Facebook, people are sharing more about themselves online than ever before. Not only is this affecting personal relationships, marketers too can use this information to better target their messages. The ultimate holy grail for marketers is a 100% response rate for their campaigns. The data shows unequivocally: response rates go up dramatically when the communication feels personalized or is endorsed by a friend. With hypertargeting, news feeds, and retweets, Facebook and Twitter give us the opportunity do both. Marketers need to be where their customers are and communicate via the channels preferred by their audiences. Increasingly, this is on Facebook. To be successful in the Facebook Era, marketers need to master the new skillset and consumer psychology of the social web.
In 2007, Clara Shih developed Faceconnector, which integrates Facebook with Salesforce and was the first business application on Facebook. Shih is CEO of Hearsay Labs and author of the business bestseller "The Facebook Era."
