Thanks, for sharing, Jaclyn! This is really interesting. I’m honestly not a Snapchat user, but I would think a tap to buy feature would be pretty awesome. Make it a paid option for brands, and give Snapchat users a direct line to view the product they are interested in. Personally it’s so obnoxious to see a pair of shoes that are amazing and not…[Read more]

The craziest thing to me here is that teens (which of course do not all vote yet) are actually getting almost all of their news from Snapchat and Twitter. With personalization clearly limiting what social users tend to see, and then fake news all over the place, the fact that young and future voters are getting news from just a few social media…[Read more]

I really do think this initial distribution is fun. It has such an exclusive feel for Snapchat users to know that when it gets to their city, this is the only place to snag a pair of Spectacles. As for the hype, I think for teens and young 20-somethings, this is probably going to do really well. We are rapidly entering the season of gifting and I…[Read more]

Gina – I kind of love this and wish I could play with this first hand! What a cool way to engage multiple senses while directly asking for a purchase of their product. With the right audience, I think this could be quite successful. If not for direct purchases, at least for increasing brand recognition in a positive way. I am also pretty certain t…[Read more]

This is really interesting to think about. I wonder though if this relationship between the YouTube show and the HBO version isn’t enhanced because of the way cord-cutters are taking in programming. Since HBO Go is a stand-alone product in addition to a cable add-on, those who aren’t paying for standard cable subscriptions can still consume HBO…[Read more]

It’s crazy, right? I found it really interesting, but agree that user privacy is in question. It appears that Foursquare does disclose what information they are collecting, and I believe you can turn off background location tracking, but I can only assume most users don’t think about this. Will be so interesting to see how the growing privacy…[Read more]

In light of today’s election, I thought it would be a great time to look at some interesting data that Foursquare collected regarding the performance of Trump-branded hotels during the election cycle.

Well done Hershey’s. Their corporate office is in my hometown and their digital operation is large so I’m not surprised they heard it. I’m pleasantly surprised that they responded tangibly and in a way that’s both on message and tonally appropriate. They are an exceptionally corporate operation so it’s great to see authentic response happening despite it.

This is a great example of social listening. With one single tweet, Kit Kat was able to take an event and make it viral. This demonstrates that not all social listening needs to be about what your competition is saying/doing or what negative things are being said about your brand. Kudos to the social media manager who saw and acted on this!

I’m definitely one of those people who checks my email on my phone throughout the day. On my personal email account, I’d say 97% of the daily emails I get are from different retailers boasting their deal for the day. I’m getting promo codes, and sales notifications like crazy constantly. Do I open them all? Absolutely not. But I will mark somet…[Read more]

This is awesome, Michael! Thanks for sharing. I tend to watch almost everything either on demand or via a streaming service nowadays (going with the trends, am I right?), so I tend to miss out on the new shows coming out. Will have to check this one out.

You may remember back in January 2014, that Atlanta experienced a “Snowpocalypse” as many of us like to call it. We got about 2” of snow, which immediately turned into ice. Being that it’s Atlanta, and we have a […]

Kimberly Johnson wrote a new post, Snackable vs. Digestible Content, on the site Digital Innovation in Mobile Marketing and Communication – Professor Lori Greene 5 years, 7 months ago
Historically when we thought about content for the internet, we were encouraged to keep the content slim. Create “snackable” bites of information that readers can nibble on and then move on to the next thing. We […]

I know speaking for myself I love content that are written in list forms. Nothing drives me more crazy than when I see a headline that says “9 things we want you read about in this article” then when I click on the article it is a drawn out piece that makes me scroll through the whole thing to find out what those 9 things are. I just want to skim through and figure out if i want to read further about the listed content.

8.25 seconds. Wow! Content is becoming more and more visual, especially with the increasing use of innovative mobile tools for photography, video, gifs, etc. Everyone, whether professional or 11-year old with mom’s smart phone, is dipping their hands into the content creation pot, which is making marketers’ jobs even more difficult to make their content stand out among the rest. For me personally, it is a little scary to see the lines between what makes content professional, what makes it amateur and/or worth-the-watch bleed together. That being said, I think it’s an exciting time for marketers to tap into the realm of user generated content to stay relevant and to bring some authenticity into what they’re cranking out on their channels.

I personally thought this campaign was awesome. I fit the bill here for the target audience too, Tiffany. Big fan of the show and excited for the new release. We had some Luke’s pop-ups in the Atlanta area, but I just couldn’t make it happen. It’s so neat to see how much love this got on social. I know it peaked my interest and even though I could…[Read more]

Such an interesting idea. I just have so much trouble imagining not having a website.

I think it’s actually pretty awesome that Snapchat is bringing this back in a new way. QR codes were pretty great for a minute. Giving people super quick access to what might be a lengthy URL is an attractive idea. On the flip side thought, if that efficiency is interrupted with an additional barrier – like the need to download a reader – the i…[Read more]

Love this, Lauren. And it’s so true. That content has to be good to get customers to take action. I actually was swayed into purchasing a product from a content piece just last week.

I totally agree, Holly. Personalization is key here. I’m not going to click on any type of content unless it really appeals to me. Why spend the money on advertising if you aren’t going to take the time to get to know your audience enough to deliver something that is truly interesting or usable in their social feed. While I many not love having…[Read more]
