Measuring Your Social Marketing Success

Writing by Social Marketing Journal on Thursday, November 29, 2007 Comments Off

There was a great post over at WebProNews yesterday about how to measure your social marketing success.

Basically it boils down to each measure has to be tailored to the project, and you need your project to have a purpose and not exist just to exist. Do you want to inform? Get new clients? All of this is very important so you know how to measure how well you did since there is no universal way to do it.

So before you launch in to anything, you need to know where you want to go with it. If you lack direction, and just do something to do it, you’ll never be able to measure it.

MySpace Is Prepping Their Own Newsfeed

Writing by Social Marketing Journal on Wednesday, November 28, 2007 Comments (1)

Never mind that Facebook keeps taking heat over their Beacon announcements in the newsfeeds, it seems that MySpace still thinks it’s a good idea to follow their closest competitor’s lead. According to numerous sites, such as Marketing Pilgrim, MySpace will soon be launching “Friends Updates” which will clutter up your home page even more.

I’m not sure why MySpace feels the need to play follow-the-leader with their second place competition, but they are for whatever reason. Add on top of this that MySpace has zero design sense, this will probably turn in to an even uglier mess than the site already is. Not much you can do though as it is still the number one social site out there.

Could we see an integration between the two? Could you possibly start reaching millions of males 18 – 34, the most desirable demographic for spending dollars? Only time will tell, but keep your eye on December 4th when the Xbox 360 receives its new feature.

Advertising Your Social Marketing

Writing by Social Marketing Journal on Monday, November 26, 2007 Comments Off

It may seem like a strange idea, but have you considered advertising your social marketing?

What I mean is, have you advertised your profiles? You sign up with someone like Enhance Interactive, place a few low cost ads, and start building up your networks. The people who will click through are apt to add you because it costs them nothing, and then you will have even more people to market to.

And, if you registered a domain name to forward through GoDaddy like I suggested, then you may also pick up impressions as opposed to click-thrus. Just make the domain name prominent in the ad, and hopefully at least a few people will type it in manually, or remember to come back and check it when they have more time.
