My Philosophy
Source: Story, Louise, “The New Advertising Outlet: Your Life,” The New York Times, October 14, 2007.
“We’re not in the business of keeping the media
companies alive.
We’re in the business of connecting with Targets.”
-Trevor Edwards,
VP Global Brand Management, Nike
I’m interested in connecting with XX
alumni, students, fans, advocates and potential
students - on their terms - for the betterment and
benefit of the XX.

Context

Hyper-Contextual
Targets will act as their
own entities, curating
their own digital
experiences and
stepping in and out of
others’ experiences.
Brands will produce
individualized,
modularized
experiences portable in
nature and based on the
user’s entire context, not
just interests (hyper
relevancy).
AKA lifestreaming.

WHAT DO I
CONSIDER TO BE
“GOOD” SOCIAL
MEDIA?
• Strategy
– “Provide value to cardmembers”
• Major efforts
– Small Business Saturday
• “…[Motivated] card holders to visit local
mom-and-pop shops. It put Facebook at the
center of the promotion, drawing in 1.2
million fans in just three weeks.”
– Sync
• “Lets cardmembers [sic] tie their cards with
Foursquare, Twitter and Facebook to
receive location-based deals and offers
directly to their Amex cards.”
– Sync Tweet-to-Buy
• A person who wants to buy a $25 American
Express Gift Card just tweets
#BuyAmexGiftCard25. Amex then tweets
the person back, asking the shopper to
confirm the purchase.”
Case Study: American Express

Applicable Lessons
• Provide value to your
audiences
• Embed social into
existing
efforts/process
(adding value), not as
one-off
• Use platforms in a
way that is natural to
users
• The “Daily Twist” campaign
– Celebrated the 100th birthday of the iconic cookie
• The Challenge
– “Make this old cookie young”
• Strategy
– “Make Oreo relevant every day”
• Solution
– A social program with 100 days of content
– Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Oreo hub
– Fan engagement via discussion, involvement via
crowdsourced topic for the 100th day
• Results
– 280% increase in Facebook shares
– 515% increase in retweets
– ROI? Sales?

WHAT IS MY
IMPRESSION OF
U-M’S SOCIAL
MEDIA EFFORTS?
• Social media consulting company
Sociagility recently ranked XX #4 at
using social media best, “…
determined by how each school
attracted attention to its social media
pages — based on site traffic,
followers, views and engagement — as
well as receptiveness to listening to
comments, interaction, network reach
and trust.”

media, where can XX go from here?
Preliminary SWOT Analysis

• Enthusiastic interaction and love of fans
Weaknesses

• Lack of cultural relevancy
• Lots of messages
Opportunities
• Value-oriented social media programs
• Targeting to increase engagement (reach)
• Applying learnings from WOM marketing and anthropology
Threats
