7:07 pm mysticalmatt: Hi everyone! ME is here #iabccle
7:09 pm shonali: @CommAMMO Guk, on the spot. ;-) Hi, all - hopefully I can help you make sense of integrated PR in 140 characters or less. #iabccle
7:09 pm sherman_comm: #iabccle @CommAMMO what exactly is social media measurement? How did they get started?
7:10 pm CommAMMO: Thanks @shonali. Here's Q1: Why is it so difficult to measure social media? #iabccle
7:11 pm mysticalmatt: Speaking of measurement, can we tell how many folks are in the discussion at this moment? #iabccle
7:11 pm kdpaine: @sherman_comm #iabccle SMM started in 1995 with the advent of newsgroups & chat. Consumer prod. cos realized import of measuring sentiment
7:12 pm shonali: Q1: I'd say it's "difficult" to measure anything if you don't begin with the end in sight. Remember: "measurable objectives." #iabccle
7:12 pm shonali: Q1: With SM, folks are still wrapped up in the "shiny" "new" ooh factor. SM's just another tool, so build it into your plans. #iabccle
7:43 pm jgombita: @steve_dodd depends if business value is the CEO's only goal. What about societal value? Think of Mintzberg's Beyond Selfishness. #iabccle
7:43 pm kdpaine: @NahumG #iabccle you do A/B tests, compare different cells. everything can be measured
7:44 pm stephen_lamb: RT @CommAMMO @NahumG #iabccle Most everything CAN be measured, but cost, effort and reward have to match. Some things don't make the grade.
7:45 pm shonali: Another thing: measure what's important. In media, measure the media you know have an impact. Toss out everything else. #iabccle
7:45 pm jgombita: @shonali @steve_dodd yes. Relationships built help when cause has need--just like Canadian Red Cross & #PicturesTalk re #haiti! #iabccle
7:45 pm MediaMiser: RT @shonali Another thing: measure what's important. In media, measure the media you know have an impact. Toss out everything else. #iabccle
7:45 pm kdpaine: @jgombita #iabccle oh you idealist you :) I agree, but don't think the majority of CFOs see it that way
7:46 pm CommAMMO: #iabccle Q3: Integration often becomes struggle for ownership. Can't we all get along? What's ur view of this phenomenon?
7:46 pm mysticalmatt: How about measuring SM effectiveness on the inside? Any tips? #iabccle
7:46 pm CommAMMO: RT @shonali: Another thing: meas what's import. In media, meas the media you know have an impact. Toss out everything else. #iabccle
7:47 pm stephen_lamb: @kdpaine #iabccle For tactics in social media. Authentic, open, honest and responsive won't change no mater what new "tool" comes along
7:47 pm kdpaine: @shonali #iabccle @CommAMMO also don't measure what you cannot change
7:47 pm shonali: @jgombita Of course. No one's saying those relationships are unimportant. That's a great e.g. of just how important they are. #iabccle
7:47 pm CommAMMO: RT @kdpaine: @shonali #iabccle @CommAMMO also don't measure what you cannot change
7:48 pm jgombita: @kdpaine part idealist, part someone who thinks PR shouldn't report to marketing <shudder>. Financial meltdown may have PR impact! #iabccle
7:48 pm CommAMMO: @kdpaine RT @mysticalmatt: How about measuring SM effectiveness on the inside? Any tips? #iabccle
7:48 pm kathy_moore: @kdpaine Hah - sounds like experience talking there "don't measure what you cannot change" #iabccle
7:48 pm shonali: @stephen_lamb I also think "authentic, open, honest & responsive" are not new per se. @kdpaine #iabccle
7:48 pm thebrandbuilder: @kdpaine: Can you elaborate on that? #iabccle (re: also don't measure what you cannot change)
7:49 pm kdpaine: @CommAMMO #iabccle Silos are the bane of every researchers existence. As long as groups are territorial, measurement is very hard.
7:49 pm steve_dodd: @jgombita @kdpaine @shonali doesn't societal value add to business value? #iabccle
7:49 pm shonali: @mysticalmatt What do you mean, "on the inside"? #iabccle
7:50 pm MediaMiser: RT @kdpaine @CommAMMO #iabccle Silos are the bane of every researchers existence. As long as groups are territorial, measurement is v hard
7:50 pm CommAMMO: RT @kdpaine: #iabccle Silos are the bane of every researchers existence. As long as groups are territorial, measurement is very hard.
7:50 pm shonali: RT @CommAMMO: Q3: Integration often becomes struggle for ownership. Can't we all get along? What's ur view of this phenomenon? #iabccle
7:50 pm jgombita: @steve_dodd societal value means a biz/organization recognizes that it is a part of something bigger than just shareholder value #iabccle
7:50 pm kdpaine: @CommAMMO #iabccle it's like Haiti. As long as everyone "OWNS" each individual piece and they don't talk to each other, nothing happens
7:50 pm shonali: Re: Q3 - yea, it would be nice, but in reality I don't think that happens as often as it should. It's the power thing. #iabccle
7:51 pm kdpaine: @mysticalmatt #iabccle can you clarify the question? Not sure what you mean.
7:51 pm CommAMMO: RT @kdpaine: #iabccle it's like Haiti. As long as everyone "OWNS" each individual piece and they don't talk to each other, nothing happens
7:51 pm kathy_moore: RT @kdpaine: Silos are the bane of every researchers existence. As long as groups are territorial, #measurement is very hard. #iabccle
7:52 pm kdpaine: @stephen_lamb #iabccle totally agree, but that's not limited to SOCIAL media, true of all communications
7:52 pm paolabrussels: What % of companies use DIY solutions for measurement? Professional tools? Which r top tools? #iabccle
7:52 pm mysticalmatt: @shonali Inside meaning our best brand ambassadors, the people who come to work here everyday #iabccle
7:53 pm shonali: Good qn, I don't know. RT @paolabrussels: What % of companies use DIY solutions for meas? Professional tools? Which r top tools? #iabccle
7:53 pm CommAMMO: #iabccle (only 8 min left!) Q4: Is privacy or lack thereof going to adversely impact SM and it's value?
7:53 pm kdpaine: @CommAMMO #iabccle not sure what you mean?
7:54 pm jgombita: @shonali agreed. Learned much re Cdn #redcross work/met dedicated staff in person--can wholeheartedly support its #haiti efforts. #iabccle
7:54 pm shonali: @mysticalmatt Oh, I see. IMHO, educate them & encourage them to use, while understanding co. guidelines. #iabccle
7:55 pm kdpaine: @thebrandbuilder #iabccle i.e. if the CEO is married to the editor of the glossy magazine, don't bother measuring its effectiveness :)
7:55 pm shonali: Q4: I don't think so. I think people will be more careful about how they use SM, which is a good thing. I don't think use will drop #iabccle
7:55 pm kdpaine: @steve_dodd #iabccle Gary Hirshberg, Anita Roddick and Ben Cohen would all say yes
7:56 pm CommAMMO: RT @kdpaine: @CommAMMO #iabccle not sure what you mean? Q is abt privacy interfering with SM use, and therefore value.
7:56 pm MediaMiser: @mysticalmatt empower employees and get them excited about social media but have some sort of policy in place. #iabccle
7:56 pm shonali: LOL! RT @kdpaine: #iabccle i.e. if the CEO is married to editor of the glossy magazine, don't bother measuring its effectiveness
7:56 pm steve_dodd: RT @CommAMMO: #iabccle (only 8 min left!) Q4: Is privacy or lack thereof going to adversely impact SM and it's value?
7:57 pm mysticalmatt: Kind of hard to get them to use tools at work when they are not available. What about getting them to use outside of work? #iabccle
7:57 pm kdpaine: @paolabrussels #iabccle I think only about 1/3 of companies measure at all. About 2/3 of them do it inhouse.
7:57 pm thebrandbuilder: @kdpaine But don't we measure X in order to be able to make specific changes to X? (Insight + Justification to act) #iabccle
7:57 pm MediaMiser: Q4- People are becoming more comfortable with online privacy (or lack thereof) likely will become less of an issue. #iabccle
7:57 pm CommAMMO: RT @kdpaine: @thebrandbuilder #iabccle i.e. if the CEO is married to the editor of the glossy magazine, don't bother meas its effctvnss:)
7:57 pm kdpaine: @mysticalmatt #iabccle doesn't that get measure via renewals, customer satisfaction, referrals?
7:58 pm jgombita: .@steve_dodd et al., pointing you to a PDF file of the Beyond Selfishness paper re: companies & societal value: http://tr.im/FBe9 #iabccle
7:58 pm shonali: @mysticalmatt I think that's personal. Can't force people to use SM tools for/about work if they're not available AT work, LOL. #iabccle
7:58 pm CommAMMO: RT @jgombita: pointing you to a PDF file of the Beyond Selfishness paper re: companies & societal value: http://tr.im/FBe9 #iabccle
7:59 pm kdpaine: @shonali #iabccle @paolabrussels best tool = the one that measures ur industry & goals best
7:59 pm thebrandbuilder: @kdpaine Battles that can't be won politically today can be won via proper analysis tomorrow. No? The P&L always wins in the end. #iabccle
7:59 pm BGdoesPR: RT @MediaMiser: @mysticalmatt empower employees and get them excited about social media but have some sort of policy in place. #iabccle
7:59 pm CommAMMO: #iabccle @mysticalmatt Getting employees to use SM tools - if there is benefit to them, we can encourage it. Can't only be bene to org'n
7:59 pm MediaMiser: @kdpaine re: 1/3 co's measuring & 2/3 inhouse. Where do those stats come from? Your own experience? #iabccle
8:00 pm supperkbc: RT @kathy_moore: Very interesting chat on PR and social media measurement happening now with @kdpaine @CommAMMO @shonali Follow #iabccle
8:00 pm mysticalmatt: @shonali They recruit outside of work, can they do more if they are engaged? #iabccle
8:01 pm erichwilliams: @BGdoesPR Get employees excited about social media by showing them how it can improve productivity, collaboration. #iabccle
8:01 pm kdpaine: @CommAMMO #iabccle privacy +internal controls are huge impediments to good metrics AND good communications.
8:01 pm shonali: @mysticalmatt Of course. They have to understand how those platforms work first, though. #iabccle
8:01 pm shonali: @mysticalmatt We can keep talking "offline" if you want to brainstorm/interested in continuing to chat. #iabccle
8:01 pm kdpaine: @CommAMMO #iabccle my fav. is going into an organization to talk about metrics, & finding my own blog and dashboards are blocked
8:02 pm steve_dodd: RT @kdpaine: @CommAMMO #iabccle privacy +internal controls are huge impediments to good metrics AND good communications.
8:02 pm CommAMMO: #iabccle Our hour is complete! Much appreciation to @shonali @kdpaine and All of You. This went way too fast. I'll tweet xscrpt shortly.
8:02 pm kdpaine: @thebrandbuilder #iabccle another idealist. yes, but sometimes u have to wait for the idiots to die, or quit. :)
8:02 pm stephen_lamb: #iabccle Q4. IMO, I don't think privacy factors today are much of a factor regarding the use of SM except in the older age groups.
8:02 pm mysticalmatt: @shonali Off to meetings, enjoyed the dialogue #iabccle
8:03 pm paolabrussels: Did I understand correctly? Are there some tools specific to certain industries ? #iabccle
8:03 pm CommAMMO: RT @kdpaine: @CommAMMO #iabccle my fav. is going into an org to talk about metrics, & finding my own blog and dashboards are blocked. Gah!

8:49 pm thebrandbuilder: @kdpaine Sure: You have to pick your battles + know when to walk away. But that's a far cry from not measuring what seems immutable #iabccle
