Words of Wisdom

We’re winning people over with education.

Anytime we do anything we think about integrating social – need to harness the crowd to help amplify our content.

Social strategy success is when we tell and share stories that reinforce our school’s mission of changing lives, organizations and the world. We aim to translate our faculty research into practical insights people can use in their daily lives.

Dr. William J. WardNewhouse School of Public Communications, Syracuse University

The biggest challenge facing companies today is definitely training. Social media is out there and 90% of employees say they are left to figure it out on their own.

Words of Wisdom

We compare social to email. We should be thinking about the use of social as frequently as email.

Great content starts in the ideation phase. If you think about social media as a tactical checkbox at the end of your to-do list, your content will fall flat.

We ran a situational simulation with our social media team and 10 stakeholders including our CMO, CEO and PR. It was a humbling 3 hours but it was so valuable. We exposed some holes in our communication plan. We ended up rewriting about a third of it.

Words of Wisdom

In a few years, social is going to be table stakes. Think about people you can activate now and make an example of them.

Social has to support the business. You need to work towards the metrics that move the dial.

Social media is a tool for businesses to control the wealth of information online so that it can be utilized for business growth. Taking the proper steps to train all involved in the communication process is key and is well worth the investment of precious time and resources.
