Buzz Marketing for Technology

FEBRUARY 18, 2010

Throughout the day I follow toggle between TweetDeck, retweeting good posts and reading new posts on my Google Reader and sharing them (during lunch or after work). My advice would be don’t let Google Reader (or any social activity) over run your life – remember you are in control! Tweet This! Share this on Facebook.

It’s not only great for search, but showcases your (or your company’s) expertise, helps humanize your company (blogs are more informal and less promotional than corporate websites), and encourages reader interaction. Crunchbase is an important place for any technology-related company to have a profile.

Crowdsourcing has become more and more popular with private companies, non-profit organizations, and even government agencies. Organizations have used it for developing programs, marketing efforts, research, and education. GetSatisfaction provides a way for companies to do that. Delicious is my favorite one to use for this.

and after being a full time mom and performing various social media marketing tasks throughout, I’ve learned that there are many parallels that can be taken from parenthood that also apply to social media marketing.

Only when the landscaping company mowed down the guy’s vegetable garden and did not rectify the situation seven weeks later did the guy decide to make a public spectacle of the situation. Sure, there are probably a few things you can point out that should work in the company’s favor. How many people really want that?

Are you a company or do you know a company that has immersed itself in the social media waters and succeeded? As small companies with limited budgets, nonprofits may feel that they are unable to dive into the wide world of social media. The big catch: Epic Change is not a large company at all.

There are a number of sites and platforms that serve as social bookmarking tools: Delicious is probably the best known one; StumbleUpon, Reddit and Digg are variations on the concept of the merging of discovery, serendipity and search, with tagging as the common thread that runs through each.

It was taken the night of January 28, 2008 (approximately 11PM EST): While Digg typically allowed stories to hit the front page within 80-120 votes (the latter being more rare than normal), it’s now requiring almost double the number.

Many companies partake in this “shiny toy syndrome&# and do it all without a plan or strategy in place. Influencer outreach may possibly be the most powerful outreach tactic that PR practitioners or marketers are laziest about. In social media, it may be more important to market slowly and the right way or not at all.

Twitter as a marketing tool. My opinion has not changed much since I wrote about Twitter’s ability to market products in March. However, I believe Twitter’s ability to market easily comes from those who associate usernames with brands. A marketing firm might want to sell a product. I still follow Woot.com.

I needed to differentiate Digg from social media because they actually are part of a distinctive community (and as you know, I’m very passionate about Digg so it really did deserve its own category). Granted, some companies use MySpace quite efficiently , but I feel that it targets a different demographic.
