Understanding The She Spot
11
Mars vs. Venus
What’s different: brain structure, chemistry, hormones, socialization.
You can acknowledge gender differences and still fight for gender equality.
Colorblindness can be dangerous. Same goes for gender-blindness.

Mars
MEN“Survival of the fittest”Rights
Morality is:Self-oriented pecking orderSelf-oriented: “me”
Power is:Domination and aggression
Person I’d most like to be:Practical, assertive, competitive
Life is:“a contest to preserve independence and avoid failure”

Venus
WOMEN“It takes a village” Responsibility
Morality is:Taking care of others, Harmonious coopPeople-oriented: “we”

Put a face on your organization.
Keep it simple – and real.
Tell real-life stories.
Don’t leave out the details.
Appeal to people’s sense of group affiliation.
Use humor.
Care
18
Control “I think I can” vs
“Sky is falling” messaging
Two-for-one
Meet her where busy women are at and make it easy
Assurance that they can have impact
20
Cultivate
Think long-term
Don’t just ask for money
Show where the money goes
Leverage third-party validators
Demonstrate your impact
Make her feel part of a group effort/movement
21
Connect
Women value community and connection
- Connect people by harnessing their collective creativity
- Connect women with each other
When you connect women to each other, you strengthen your brand
22
Men have an “on/off” switch – women have a “longer-list principle”
Bottom line: meet women’s higher threshold and you’ll exceed men’s expectations
It’s inclusive marketing…
Get Men Too
Not All Women Are Alike

There is no gender gap in the use of the technology. Women are emailing and surfing the web as much as men. We’re not being left behind. The connected age is the age for women in social change. It levels the playing field for us to have an enormous impact on what issues are talked about.

Retail Advertising & Marketing Association survey 2009
Six tenets (apologies to Scoble/Israel)
Publishable: the consumer has the ability and freedom to publish their voice. They are the “former audience.”
Conversational/social: a two-way method of creating and sustaining a dialogue
Findable: blogs indexed in search engines, LinkedIn profiles usually public
Viral/Shareable: making things shareworthy; information that is spread through multiple sites
Instant and Syndicatable: RSS, disruptive technology
Linkable: the ability to link to others online: bloggers, tweets, videos, photosWe the Media, Naked Conversations
The role of experts and information gatekeepers such as teachers and doctors is radically altered ….as empowered amateurs and dissidents find new ways to raise their voices and challenge authority.
Some 35% of American adult internet users and 57% of teenage internet users have made a creative contribution to the online commons.

“I want them to talk about X, but they want to talk
about Y.”
“I want them to talk about X, but they want to talk about Y.”
Listen and AskUser engagement on social networks is often
associated with deals, contests and promotions, however, recent data found online users with more than 500 social connections were less interested, on average, in deals.
Forty-eight percent of these highly connected individuals said their reason for following or friending a company was to learn about things like company culture, environmental responsibility and workers’ policies.

Even with the best intentions…
A friend of mine who blogs said this after a typical outreach that asked her if she'd “host a button of support” on her blog:
“I think this captures SO well how most non-profits fail to really connect with supporters. They keep reaching out to me to "help" by doing things like putting buttons on websites, etc., but are failing to see that there's more they could be doing -- sort of like people online aren't real ---???”

“We think it’s terrific,” said Andrea Rader, a spokesman for Susan G. Komen For the Cure, an organization that raises funds for breast cancer research. “It’s a terrific example of how little things get started on the Internet and go a long way to raise cancer awareness.”
The Facebook fan base for Susan G. Komen For the Cure “exploded” from 135 to 135,000
“The American Cancer Society, likewise, saw a bump in interest about breast cancer, but was slightly more defensive about the bra color postings. "We are not behind it," said spokesperson Andrew Becker. "And the reason I say that up front is that there was a news outlet in India that was saying we had something to do with it."
