Yep. I know I look like 18.
But I’m actually 29. Most old people
tell me I will be happy with them
when I’m 50. I doubt that.
I sooooo love Blackberry ...
... but recently switched to iPhone
(it’s not you, it’s me).
Polle de Maagt. The reason to move to Gent
The love of my life. What better
Changing companies to be reason is there?!
more about acts, less about ads.
3. Polle de Maagt @polledemaagt
I try to change companies and the government to
be less about ads and more about acts.
Through inspiration, strategy and coaching.

I would like to talk about 3 things today.
(Don’t worry, I made them tweet-size, so you can easily remember them).

Over the last 8 years ...
... I have been a 30K customer.
9,1 %

Over my last 11 itineraries.
10. Polle de Maagt @polledemaagt
The growing challenge of managing expectations.
It’s pretty basic: do more than people expect to stimulate word of mouth. However, be careful not to
over-exceed expectations, that actually creates negative conversations.
And it sets a new normal ...
11. Polle de Maagt @polledemaagt
Beyond the standard
support mails.
Zappos does an amazing job in making
technology invisible and really understanding
consumers. Whenever you answer ‘thank you’
to a standard support mail, they will send you
a personal message back, instead of an
autoreply.

A small experiment in happiness.
“Do something with Foursquare”, that was the briefing for a pretty remarkable experiment. Over the course of
6 weeks, we surprised KLM passengers based on their social media profiles. To see how happiness spreads.
And it did.
Something to prove
KLM wanted to prove they recognize the
person behind every passenger.
More?
I will talk you through
that later :)
Foursquare
Every time a passenger told KLM
via twitter or Foursquare that
he/she was at Schiphol airport,
we tried to surprise him/her in a
most personal way.
Results?
Over 1.000.000 impressions
on twitter alone. And a
Cannes Lions Award for PR.

A cost-efficiency experiment.
How can we prove digital works? By showing our webcare department is more efficient than our regular call
center. Actually ... a whopping 50-75%.
A 365/7/24 team in 6 languages
Ready to help clients all over the world.
A weekly report
For all managers.
50-75%
And we’re not even
counting the social
media ripple effect.

Would this make a difference

For me, it all started with this bill.
Yep.
I should treat my nails better.

Running other routes
Not the same round every day,
but a route worth running.
Running further
To run a decent figure, people
needed to run further than
they were used to.
Nike changed the way people run.
A club worth joining
Connected 24/7/365.
Results?
Over 40.000 connected runners,
behavior change amongst runners.
SpinAwards and Webby Award.

Wouldn’t it be awesome ...
... to turn all advertising space
on Times Square into art?
That’s the idea of TimesSquare
to ArtSquare #TS2AS.
Justus Bruns
Actually, he grew up in
Belgium.
Yes you can.
When you have a great
idea, you get away with
ugly jackets.
Remember that.

Daniel Termont.
A genuinely awesome guy.
He personally answers
all emails he gets.
Approximately 250 a day.
Challenging Gent’s mayor.

Unused potential
Cute animals get born from
time to time. Employees
were video amateurs.
Kai Mook
Isn’t she cute?
Capitalize on unused potential.
Results?
Over 600.000 people watched the
birth. Live. Over 33% more visitors.
A story worth sharing Nominated as product of the year.
Wouldn’t it be great if every
Belgian felt a bit pregnant too?

Project KPIs.
To change a company, define manageable projects with clear KPIs. Intrinsic, learning and change management
KPIs. This, to challenge yourself to make the projects impactful in learning and change management, but also
to be able to make a project successful on several axes.
Intrinsic KPIs
Your ‘normal’ set of KPIs that are
easy to measure. E.g. grow 50% in
number of followers.
INTRINSIC
LEARNING CHANGE
MANAGEMENT
Learning KPIs Change management KPIs
What can we learn from these How will this project help change the
projects? E.g. learn which content organization E.g. convince manager X that
works best to convert people to fans LinkedIn is as converting as twitter,
or followers. gather a spearhead group of 50 internal
enthousiasts.

It works beats “it would
be cool if” every day.
Just make sure it does the job.
Maybe the best social media campaign ever.

today. But please, remember 3 things.

Help me change the government. Act yourself.
Every little act is a step closer to leveraging unused potential. Every act is a little less ads. Do something in the next 48
hours that actually makes your company or your clients more customer connected.

I try to change companies to
be less about ads and more about acts.
