Business Implications
Major impact on consumer behaviour, especially in information intense industries – ‘customer to customer’ reviews and recommendations
Declining effectiveness of traditional approaches to sales, marketing, brand promotion etc
New mindsets and new approaches required - Marketing as a ‘conversation with your customers, a conversation with your network’
New performance measures required
‘Power shift’ – Web 2.0 empowers customers, empowers the network
Business Implications
All revolutions have ‘winners’ and ‘losers’
‘Winners’ will be those organisations who fully utilise the interactive power of Web 2.0 technology for engaging with and energising customer and network relationships
Requires a new ‘mindset’ and new approaches to marketing communications strategy and implementation
Requires new performance measures – Quality of your network– Relationship strength– Ability to leverage

SOCIAL MEDIA DEVELOPMENT CYCLE
Bob Dylan
Come gather 'round peopleWherever you roamAnd don’t criticise
What you can't understandYour sons and your daughters
Are beyond your commandYour old road is
Rapidly agin‘Then you better start swimmin’
Or you'll sink like a stoneFor the times they are a-changin’
