Social media is a two-way channel, but over the last ten years marketers have increasingly shifted to focus activities on one-way interruption - applying old techniques to new channels.
Communities form post-purchase, but most marketers currently focus social media activities on the pre-purchase funnel. When you force a community to act as an acquisition channel, you dilute it.
There is a significant opportunity to drive post-purchase loyalty, advocacy and re-purchase through social media, and responsibility for functions that drive this are increasingly falling to the CMO. The potential for ROI in this area is significant.
Given those points, we need to re-assess our approach to social media – especially for consumer and SMB audiences. In particular, we need to shift to focus our on-channel activities on existing customers (versus new acquisitions) through:
- On-channel content – both planned and real-time
- Community management
- Social media support
We need to shift the last of these - social media support - from a cost centre to a strategic driver of differentiation.
Still, there IS a place for sales in social:
- Off-channel content and paid (posts promoted outside brands’ communities)
- Couponing and contesting (still key reasons that many people connect with brands)
- Re-purchase and new product launches

think beyond
the transaction
Too many retailers think their work ends once a customer has clicked “Buy.” Rather, they
should be finding ways to connect with customers in new and dynamic ways that will increase
customer lifetime value. One of the goals of any social loyalty program must be to deepen the
retailer’s relationship with its customers by engaging them beyond the purchase.
13. best practice #4
design, evaluate,
& optimize for roi
An effective social loyalty program is a significant investment of time and resources.
A program must have clear objectives and target specific customer segments. Most
importantly, a program must be designed for maximum ROI, and it must be measured
at the right moments. Ongoing program optimization lays the groundwork for
continued growth and success.
