Media Trust for managers
The document summarizes the evolution of managing websites and marketing in four acts: Act One discusses how the internet has become more conversational as people expect open and honest communication rather than corporate marketing. Act Two explains how websites and marketing need to shift from one-way content to two-way conversations and relationships by using tools like blogs, social media, and user-generated content. Act Three explores how building relationships and conversations can benefit companies through brand advocates, insights, and lower marketing costs. Act Four argues that for companies to truly adapt they need to view customers as partners rather than audiences and empower employees to communicate openly across the organization.
Media Trust for managers
- 1. managing Web 2.0 March 2007 a story in four acts
- 2. act One the changing world
- 3. the times they are a changin’ … markets are conversations. Their members communicate in language that is natural, open, honest, direct, funny and often shocking. Whether explaining or complaining, joking or serious, the human voice is unmistakably genuine. It can't be faked. Most corporations, on the other hand, only know how to talk in the soothing, humorless monotone of the mission statement, marketing brochure, and your-call-is-important-to-us busy signal. Same old tone, same old lies. No wonder networked markets have no respect for companies unable or unwilling to speak as they do. www.cluetrain.org non-profits non-profits
