Could you have ever imagined that the digital gold of our age would be the likes of Facebook and Twitter?
First came the PC, then the internet, and then web 1.0’s success stories like Amazon and eBay. Dot com bust notwithstanding, the internet’s power of connecting people could never be underestimated. It has delivered on its very promise time and again, that of “inter-connecting” people, whether it be for old model- old fashioned buying and selling of products and services or today’s new age reality of vast networks of like minded people who shun the traditional ways of staying in touch in favor of the more efficient way, the digital way.
What services like Facebook and Twitter have done is to show the world that if you give users the right tools and the platform, the whole world can connect without the corner office executive ever having to break a sweat trying to figure out how to build a user base and make the service sticky.
This new reality has spawned a new kind of user, the empowered user, the educated user, and a user grown-up enough to make decisions online without having the corporation look over their shoulder. This is the new democracy, and while companies and people do not need degrees to navigate this maze, they sure need help. That’s where Knack Social comes in.
So the question to ask is how do you as a corporate or a celebrity use the power of such tools and platforms to reach out to this new breed of users, who cannot be incentivized to endorse a product or service or person.
The answer is simple. You need to know your audience, you need to how to focus your message and you need to manage and follow through on the strategy. If you follow these simple steps, all that remains to be done is to sit back and see your fan base or followers grow.
