Social Media Day presented by Ogilvy & Mather | 1-Day Conferences | ANA

Social Media Day presented by Ogilvy & Mather

This event is over.

Social media has exploded. According to a recent ANA study, 66 percent of marketers are now using social media to reach their customers-leaping from 20 percent just two years ago. Despite this rapid growth, clients have many questions and their issues include measurement, agency selection, internal org structure, and relinquishing control to the consumer while trying to influence the dialogue.

Learn how top marketers such as American Licorice, Del Monte Foods, PETCO, and Atari have cut through all the hype to use social media successfully. Join us for a fun and informative day hosted by Ogilvy & Mather as top client-side marketers and industry experts will share best practices in Social Media. This is free to ANA members and limited to ANA members and invited guests.

DRIVING CAUSE RELATED MARKETING THROUGH SOCIAL MEDIA
Approached by Participant Media in 2009 to create a new website for its cause-related activities, OgilvyWest instead delivered a hugely successful new interactive online model combining social media with social activism and a predictive engagement engine. The result: TakePart the connective tissue for Participant's Social Action NetworkTM, an alliance of over 1000 cause and social issue sites, NGOs, action aggregators and other cause organizations that share common goals, audience, content, actions, data, and technology. More than a media channel, TakePart is a cause-centered community enablement and CRM platform that is the right context for brands to tell their social responsibility and sustainability stories and the platform for engaging consumers in those programs.

LIKE LOVE AND FLAME WARS: SOCIAL MEDIA, THE NEW ONLINE DATING
When marketing a highly engaging, passionate category like video gaming, social media can look and feel a lot like e-romance. A cycle of flirtation, engagement, dating, going steady, misunderstandings, public spats and a trail of communication the whole world can see. In this session, Atari will share some experiences from the trenches of video games and social media, from the art of capturing interest and attention to best practices in juggling multiple partners, maintaining the relationship as well as talk about what to do when the relationship goes sideways. Additionally, you will hear about examples and data on what sites and platforms have delivered more dates, with higher quality partners for less effort.
