So  How  Do    You  Do  It?  

Page 17: Maryland Association of Counties - People Power: Harnessing Citizen Energy Through Social Media

What  We’ve  Learned  

•  It’s  REALLY  hard  •  There’s  a  methodology  and  rigor  •  Lots  of  op1miza1on  opportuni1es    •  Hard  to  be  consistent  •  Difference  between  “doing  it”  and  “doing  it  well”  

IntegraEon  with  tradiEonal  communicaEon  =    key  to  driving  real  results

So  How  Do    You  Do  It  Well?  

Page 19: Maryland Association of Counties - People Power: Harnessing Citizen Energy Through Social Media

Integrated  Engagement  

Page 20: Maryland Association of Counties - People Power: Harnessing Citizen Energy Through Social Media

Engagement  Formula  

Find  Out  +  Sign-­‐Up  +  Learn  +  Act    =  RESULTS  

(i.e.  get  flu  shot,  fill  out  census,  apply  for  job)    

500,000  Subscribers  20%  Open  =  100,000  Read  Message  

5%  Take  AcEon  =  5,000  Extra  Flu  Shots  

The  same  formula  applies  to  social  media

Page 21: Maryland Association of Counties - People Power: Harnessing Citizen Energy Through Social Media

It’s  easy  to  get  set  up  and  started…  

Page 22: Maryland Association of Counties - People Power: Harnessing Citizen Energy Through Social Media

But  now  what  do  you  do?  

Page 23: Maryland Association of Counties - People Power: Harnessing Citizen Energy Through Social Media

Page 24: Maryland Association of Counties - People Power: Harnessing Citizen Energy Through Social Media

It’s  not  about  numbers.  It’s  about  access  /  value.

I  don’t  do  shout  outs  (or  give  advice),  but  if  I  did….  

Page 28: Maryland Association of Counties - People Power: Harnessing Citizen Energy Through Social Media

Voices  are  valuable…  

Page 29: Maryland Association of Counties - People Power: Harnessing Citizen Energy Through Social Media

And  voice  +  value  leads  to  volume.
