22. Customer experience is becoming
a hot button — not just for the
CMO, but across the C-suite.
Customers expect a consistent
experience, and they expect a
company to know who they are
from device to device and from
touch point to touch point.
Sheryl Pattek, Forrester Research

29. Make the tough calls on
people. Radically reduce
people dedicated to the old
business. Find new ways to
motivate the legacy people.
Redefine criteria for officers
and move out those who
cannot be “digital heads.”
Ram Charan, b 1939

35. Suggestions
LinkedIn for sure if you’re working: curation, shout-outs
Biz: Facebook page, LinkedIn page/group
One other unless you really love this stuff
Twitter for conversation, curation
Instagram for great photos — watch the selfies
For work, five days a week
For fun, when you feel like it
LinkedIn: straightforward not stilted
Twitter: pithy not preachy
Facebook: breezy not braggy
36. Choosing your channels
begins with your “customer”.
Where does he get his
information?
Where does she express an
opinion?
37. Choosing your channels
continues with your purpose.
Is this for fun or for work?
What is your business?
How do you like to market?
What are your strengths?
38. Deciding on social media
requires attention and joy.
Can you give this time
every week and even
every day?
Can you work with those
who do?
40. Because somebody grows up
being a social media native, it
doesn’t make them an expert in
using social media at work.
That’s like saying, “I grew up with
a fax machine, so that makes me
an expert in business.”
William Ward, Syracuse University
