WHAT
THE
F**K
IS
SOCIAL
MEDIA
one year later*




*Bigger. Badder. More f**king than ever.
“
                                 Social media is like teen sex.
                                 Everyone wants to do it. Nobody knows how.
                                 When it’s finally done there is surprise it’s not better.”
                                 Avinash Kaushik, Analytics Evangelist, Google

Officially, though, social media
is not like teen sex.
                    *



* Phew!
Officially, social media is “an umbrella term
that defines the various activities that integrate
technology, social interaction, and the construction
of words, pictures, videos, and audio.”

http://www.wikipedia.org
IT’S ALSO
A FANCY WAY
TO DESCRIBE
THE ZILLIONS
OF CONVERSATIONS
PEOPLE
ARE HAVING
ONLINE
24/7.

WHY
THE
F**K
SHOULD
I CARE
one year later*



                            ?
* Still an excellent question, by the way.

REASON #4

BECAUSE TIME SPENT ON SOCIAL NETWORKS
IS GROWING AT 3X THE OVERALL INTERNET
RATE, ACCOUNTING FOR ~10% OF ALL
INTERNET TIME.
Nielsen, Global Faces & Networked Places, 2009
REASON #5
BECAUSE SOCIAL MEDIA IS DEMOCRATIZING
COMMUNICATIONS. BIG TIME.




            “
                   Technology is shifting the power away
                          from the editors, the publishers,
                      the establishment, the media elite.
                  Now it’s the people who are in control.”
                        Rupert Murdoch, Global Media Entrepreneur
REASON #6

BECAUSE SOCIAL MEDIA IS LIKE
          WORD OF MOUTH
          ON STEROIDS.
BECAUSE, DEAR FRIEND, SOCIAL MEDIA
IS A F**KING FORCE TO BE RECKONED WITH.

F**K

*Gratuitous, but lives up to the promise on the title page.
BUT
WAIT,
THERE’S
MORE.
93% OF SOCIAL MEDIA USERS BELIEVE A COMPANY
SHOULD HAVE A PRESENCE IN SOCIAL MEDIA.
Cone, Business in Social Media Study, September 2008
BELIEVE IT OR NOT, THAT DOESN’T MEAN THAT 93% OF SOCIAL MEDIA
USERS THINK COMPANIES SHOULD TREAT SOCIAL MEDIA AS YET
ANOTHER CHANNEL FOR BROADCASTING           BULLSH*T.
YOU SEE, IT’S SUPPOSED TO BE A DIALOGUE,
NOT A MONOLOGUE.
“Marketers don't understand channels
where you have to talk
and listen at the same time...

The marketing industry's idea
of a two-way communication
is to put an 800 number
or a web address in an ad
and take orders.”


Josh Bernoff, Why marketers have trouble with full-duplex social technology, June 30, 2009
This couldn't be more obvious
than with email. Your company
has a chance to turn its email list
into a two-way communication.
Except that most mass emails
from companies are "do not
reply".

"We want to talk to you,"
they say. "But we don't want
to hear back from you. Unless
you want to place an order,
and if so click here."




        Josh Bernoff, Why marketers have trouble with full-duplex social technology, June 30, 2009
“   The people in charge of talking
    are in the marketing department.

    The people in charge of listening
    are in the research or service
    or sales department.

    They hardly ever talk to each other,
    let alone have full-duplex conversations
    with customers.”




    Josh Bernoff, Why marketers have trouble with full-duplex social technology, June 30, 2009
    photo by Jamie Mellor on flickr.com
“   This won't fly in social technology
    because the minute you talk,
    people expect you to listen.

    And if you start to listen,
    you'll be tempted to talk.

    It's a full-duplex channel
    that befuddles one-way-marketers.”




    Josh Bernoff, Why marketers have trouble with full-duplex social technology, June 30, 2009
FACT:
 SOCIAL MEDIA
 PLAYTIME
        *
 IS OVER.
*See http://www.forrester.com/Research/Document/Excerpt/0,7211,47665,00.html for more on that topic.
SO, PLEASE.
SO, PLEASE.
                    *
STOP F**KING AROUND
& GET SERIOUS
ABOUT HARNESSING
THE POWER OF THIS THING.
SO, PLEASE.
                         *
STOP F**KING AROUND
& GET SERIOUS
ABOUT HARNESSING
THE POWER OF THIS THING.

*C’mon, I said please.
85% of social media users believe that a company
should go further than just having a presence
on social sites and should also interact
with its customers.
Cone, Business in Social Media Study, September 2008
“   For companies,
                                                   resistance to social
                                                   media is futile.
                                                   Millions of people are
                                                   creating content for
                                                   the social Web.

                                                   Your competitors
                                                   are already there.

                                                   Your customers have
                                                   been there for a long
                                                   time.

                                                   If your business isn't
                                                   putting itself out there,
                                                   it ought to be.”

What the F**K is Social Media: One Year Later

  • 2. Social media is like teen sex. Everyone wants to do it. Nobody knows how. When it’s finally done there is surprise it’s not better.” Avinash Kaushik, Analytics Evangelist, Google photo by Zellaby on flickr.com
  • 3. Officially, though, social media is not like teen sex. * * Phew!
  • 4. Officially, social media is “an umbrella term that defines the various activities that integrate technology, social interaction, and the construction of words, pictures, videos, and audio.” http://www.wikipedia.org
  • 5. IT’S ALSO A FANCY WAY TO DESCRIBE THE ZILLIONS OF CONVERSATIONS PEOPLE ARE HAVING ONLINE 24/7. photo by Kris Hoet on flickr.com
  • 6. WHY THE F**K SHOULD I CARE one year later* ? * Still an excellent question, by the way.
  • 7. REASON #1 BECAUSE 3 OUT OF 4 AMERICANS USE SOCIAL TECHNOLOGY. Forrester, The Growth Of Social Technology Adoption, 2008
  • 8. REASON #2 BECAUSE 2/3 OF THE GLOBAL INTERNET POPULATION VISIT SOCIAL NETWORKS. Nielsen, Global Faces & Networked Places, 2009

  • 12. REASON #6 BECAUSE SOCIAL MEDIA IS LIKE WORD OF MOUTH ON STEROIDS.

  • 23. 3,600,000,000 The number of photos archived on Flickr.com as of June 2009.
  • 24. 3,600,000,000 The number of photos archived on Flickr.com as of June 2009. That’s roughly 1 photo per every 2 people on the planet.
  • 25. 1382%
  • 26. 1382% The monthly growth rate of Twitter users from January to February 2009.
  • 28. 3,000,000 The average number of Tweets per day on Twitter.com

  • 32. 1,000,000,000 The amount of content (web links, news stories, blog posts, notes, photos, etc.) shared each week on Facebook.
  • 33. The word blog is irrelevant. What's important is that it is now common, and will soon be expected, that every intelligent person (and quite a few unintelligent ones) will have a media platform where they share what they care about with the world.” Seth Godin, Author
  • 34. 5,000,000 photo by jmtimages (better!) on flickr.com

  • 41. IF FACEBOOK WERE A COUNTRY, IT WOULD BE THE 8TH MOST POPULATED IN THE WORLD, JUST AHEAD OF JAPAN. Mark Zuckerberg, January 7, 2009
  • 42. HOLY F**K * *Gratuitous, but lives up to the promise on the title page.
  • 44. 93% OF SOCIAL MEDIA USERS BELIEVE A COMPANY SHOULD HAVE A PRESENCE IN SOCIAL MEDIA. Cone, Business in Social Media Study, September 2008
  • 45. BELIEVE IT OR NOT, THAT DOESN’T MEAN THAT 93% OF SOCIAL MEDIA USERS THINK COMPANIES SHOULD TREAT SOCIAL MEDIA AS YET ANOTHER CHANNEL FOR BROADCASTING BULLSH*T.
  • 46. YOU SEE, IT’S SUPPOSED TO BE A DIALOGUE, NOT A MONOLOGUE.
  • 47. “Marketers don't understand channels where you have to talk and listen at the same time... The marketing industry's idea of a two-way communication is to put an 800 number or a web address in an ad and take orders.” Josh Bernoff, Why marketers have trouble with full-duplex social technology, June 30, 2009
  • 48. This couldn't be more obvious than with email. Your company has a chance to turn its email list into a two-way communication. Except that most mass emails from companies are "do not reply". "We want to talk to you," they say. "But we don't want to hear back from you. Unless you want to place an order, and if so click here." Josh Bernoff, Why marketers have trouble with full-duplex social technology, June 30, 2009
  • 49. The people in charge of talking are in the marketing department. The people in charge of listening are in the research or service or sales department. They hardly ever talk to each other, let alone have full-duplex conversations with customers.” Josh Bernoff, Why marketers have trouble with full-duplex social technology, June 30, 2009 photo by Jamie Mellor on flickr.com
  • 50. This won't fly in social technology because the minute you talk, people expect you to listen. And if you start to listen, you'll be tempted to talk. It's a full-duplex channel that befuddles one-way-marketers.” Josh Bernoff, Why marketers have trouble with full-duplex social technology, June 30, 2009
  • 51. FACT: SOCIAL MEDIA PLAYTIME * IS OVER. *See http://www.forrester.com/Research/Document/Excerpt/0,7211,47665,00.html for more on that topic.
  • 53. SO, PLEASE. * STOP F**KING AROUND & GET SERIOUS ABOUT HARNESSING THE POWER OF THIS THING.
  • 54. SO, PLEASE. * STOP F**KING AROUND & GET SERIOUS ABOUT HARNESSING THE POWER OF THIS THING. *C’mon, I said please.
  • 55. 85% of social media users believe that a company should go further than just having a presence on social sites and should also interact with its customers. Cone, Business in Social Media Study, September 2008
  • 56. For companies, resistance to social media is futile. Millions of people are creating content for the social Web. Your competitors are already there. Your customers have been there for a long time. If your business isn't putting itself out there, it ought to be.” BusinessWeek, February 19, 2009 photo by Archie McPhee Seattle on flickr.com
  • 57. UNFORTUNATELY, MOST COMPANIES ARE STILL TREATING SOCIAL MEDIA * LIKE JUST ANOTHER MARKETING CHANNEL. *Oops.
  • 58. WHEN IN FACT, * IT’S SO MUCH MORE. *Wait for it...
