2000 Bloggers – I wanna be in that number!

January 29, 2007 • Blog • 4 comments

I came across this interesting concept of 2000 bloggers which was started by Tino Buntic. The idea was to create a link to 2000 bloggers from anywhere and anytime and feature them on his blog. I spotted quite a few Singaporean bloggers in there, like Andrew Wee, Veron and eastcoastlife, as well as prominent blogeratis like Guy Kawasaki, Tom Peters, Robert Scoble and Seth Godin.

See who you can spot and have fun clicking on the faces. I hear that Tino is still looking for bloggers to link to, so go ahead and drop him a note here!

The Death of the Press Release?

January 25, 2007 • Public Relations • 2 comments

Read this post by Long Tail’s Chris Anderson about how social media relations brings a different dimension compared to traditional mainstream media PR. He blogs about the dilemma faced by traditional PR practitioners as captured by this quote:

“So now imagine that you’re one of those PR professionals. What do you do? Stick with the world you know, and continue calling and emailing releases to the traditional press (trying not to notice that their ranks are shrinking and influence waning)? Start spamming bloggers, too, and hope for the best? Or just treat alpha bloggers like traditional press and shower them with love, while ignoring the rest?”

His suggestion to evolve the role of PR from external relations to internal relations is radical. Can we as PR professionals coach the numerous employees in our organisation to do the outreach through their respective social media channels instead of doing it ourselves? Chris suggested some possible topics for coaching:

The Best Laid Plans of Mice and Men?

November 27, 2006 • Blog • no comments

Planning versus execution. There is an age-old debate about which is more important in marketing. Should strategy take precedence over implementation? Similarly, which is of greater significance – the general’s plans or the warriors tactics?

I believe that increasingly, ivory towers “strategic marketing” ain’t gonna cut the ice. Poring over numerous analytical reports and market research alone will not do. AC Nielsen may have the best coverage of traditional marketing channels but have you read what people are talking about you on hardwarezone’s forums? How about what the taxi drivers are saying behind your backs?

Social Media Relations

November 22, 2006 • Public Relations • no comments

Came across this excellent piece from the net savvy executive on how one should manage and deal with bloggers, podcasters, you-tubers and other digital denizens. They have coined a new term for it called Social Media Relations. This could be an interesting offshoot from traditional public relations which is usually more concerned with Main Stream Media (MSM).

The key roles of Social Media Relations?

1) Coordinate the development and implementation of social media engagement strategy and policies, including blogging policy, formal blogger relations programs and social media monitoring programs.
