CIPR Social Summer The Future of Broadcast
Russell Goldsmith & Julian Fisher, markettiers4dc
24 May 2012
#ciprsm / @russgoldsmith / @julesfisher
Where is broadcast today?
• The broadcast landscape has changed, and will continue to do so
• Where is successful playout?
– Interview on the Today Programme on Radio 4 ... or a Podcast reaching the top of the charts on iTunes?
– Coverage on BBC Breakfast or a video on YouTube, shared on Facebook and trending on twitter?
• How does broadcast manifest itself?
Huge opportunity for coverage
• Same targeting principles apply
– Who is my target audience?
– Where can I find them?
– What format / tactic does programming /
media owner require?
….Interviews / Outside Broadcasts / Podcasts /
interactive WebTV / Video news features….
Traditional broadcast
media still has a powerful
and important role but new social media platforms
provide a direct route to
audience
How to control a news agenda and own the Broadcast
coverage across all platforms
Case study example

Becoming the media and content owner
• Challenge
– Generate positive conversation online and within social media outside of current news agenda
• What works?
– Topics that often ‘trend’ in the UK on Twitter are regularly based around broadcast content, think #xfactor or #BGT
Becoming the media and content owner
• Opportunity – Provide your messages to your target audiences through
content that they want to engage with
– Imagine creating your own version of Question Time and produce live content that online viewers can share and comment on with friends? Or a live event to view exclusively the Facebook?
– Or producing video where viewers can purchase featured products whilst watching from any connected device
– If produced and distributed in the right targeted environments, then you don’t necessarily need to be on national TV to get trending in social media
Case Study: Vodafone McLaren Mercedes
• Launch of new car livery ahead of 2011 F1 season.
• By providing F1 fans & bloggers exclusive access to live stream on its website and Facebook page, excitement of the team’s drivers Jenson Button & Lewis Hamilton unveiling new car live online generated so much discussion on Twitter that it started to trend
Importance of video
• One of biggest growth areas online
• 26m people watched 2.3bn videos in UK in June 2011*
• Key is to find most effective use appropriate to target audience to deliver messages that ROI will be judged on
• Live or on-demand interactive video can deliver positive results

Case Study: Saga
General Election
Saga
• Saga Manifesto released in Jan 2010 sought to identify issues most important to older people
• In March edition of Saga magazine the leaders of the three main political parties responded to demands of the Saga generation
• Next phase asked them to flesh out promises in a series of live webchats discussing main concerns of Saga audience and outline plans & policies to serve this very influential section of society
Live Shows
• David Cameron – Streamed live in front of audience, which
included Saga Populus panel members
• Gordon Brown – Pre-recorded from 10 Downing Street with
questions gathered in advance

Facebook Fan Pages
• Brands shifting focus onto their Facebook Fan pages to engage with their own community.
• Challenge is to maximise Facebook’s limited page structure to make page more engaging to encourage fans to ‘like it’ and share the content
• Updates only reach 17% of ‘likes’ on average* unless more engaged
• Broadcasting live into the timeline and therefore your ‘likers’ newsfeeds improves engagement, enabling them to watch the content without leaving their Facebook page, sharing it with their friends and helping the viral spread.

“Thanks all, very excited about this UK first!! :-D”
“Fabulous. Excited to see this launch later – I know it’s sheer coincidence this is going out at the same time as our

here!”

HTML emails sent to your database to create an
appointment to view the live shows in particular and to
encourage questions to the guests, and then to follow up letting them know the videos
are available on demand.
This works well as proven by our award winning case
study from Prudential (left) who worked their database
of over 40,000 customers generating over 100
questions for the show which has been viewed by over
30,000 people on demand

Feedback from the first show
“I thought it was great -
really interesting and I think
mums will have found it
really reassuring to hear the
discussions. They were very
inspirational”
“In true mum style I had to cancel to
care for my 8 month old! I thought it
went well and is a great format for a
show, it gives mums the chance to share
ideas and help re-affirm we are all
normal and everyone does things in
their own way”
“I enjoyed Mum's Half Hour very much - thought there was enough
discussion for it to be twice as long!”
Summary
• Broadcast is growing in outreach
• Video increases search results online
• More channels than ever before, and direct
dialogue with audience/community
• Don’t be daunted by the challenge, instead
embrace the opportunities
Summary
• Social media is a digital advocacy platform used to share information.
• Broadcast has an ability to bring a story to life, as well as excite, enthuse and engage an audience.
• Combine both tools and remind yourself that you no longer are as reliant on the ‘professional’ journalist but instead can communicate directly with your audience through a brand’s own community or with bloggers who are advocates of your products and services
• The result for PR teams is very powerful and exciting ...
