“GREAT SOCIAL MEDIA STRATEGISTS”
10 telling traits
1.macro the micro
stand back then focus again
you’re as comfortable with the big picture as
you are with details.
your ability to constantly shift back and forth
between the two optics makes you
exceptional.
2. get s**t done
make the doughnuts
you know you don’t get much respect from
the troops as a whiteboard strategist.
so you have proven execution chops.
you delegate judiciously, but are always
able and willing to jump in the trenches.
3.communal
community trumps all
the “social” part of social media? that’s
community.
you really get that because you see how
community feeds every aspect of social
media.
and your social strategies always include at
least one component of community.
4.realpolitik’ian
the underside…
you understand how to survive and thrive in
complex political environments.
because otherwise, you’d be rendered
ineffective.
and therefore useless.
5.businessman
social means business
you’re a business strategist first and
foremost.
one who happens to specialize in social
media.
6.analytic
data is your friend
you don’t always have the answers. but you
sure ask the right questions.
you see metrics as a multi-faceted tactical
tool affecting everything from operations to
revenue to internal alignment.
and you use them accordingly.
7.technologist
under the hood you see
you grok technology. and probably came
from a technical background.
you know the different between PHP and
API.
8.leader
pulling together
you know how to motivate, train, and mentor
social teams.
a lot of this has to do with #2
your team willingly gets up at 4AM to help
you solve an emerging crisis. they got your
back. and you got theirs.
your social strategy never excludes the
human beings executing it.
9.natural
if it doesn’t smell right…
you have great instinct often backed by cold
hard data - when available.
sometimes it’s experience. but a lot of it is
sheer nature.
10.bottom liner
sales fixes everything | guy kawasaki
you are neither a Kumbaya nor a
spreadsheet strategist.
at the end of the day, the sun sets, and you’re
here to serve, protect and drive sales for
your brand.
and you never lose sight of that.
