"Também havia no ar, a meu ver, uma falta de conteúdos e posturas inspiradoras e humanas. Fala-se muito no “consumidor” e nada nas pessoas. Muitos números, pouca sensibilidade (que é parte fundamental nos esforços que elevam os números). As marcas e empresas reconhecem e querem valorizar o poder que o consumidor têm, falam muito de colaboração e redes sociais, mas ao menos no seminário se mostraram pouco sociais e humanas."Vale a pena dar uma checada (no sentido puritano da palavra) no post do Mini sobre o evento que rolou esta semana em Sampa.

Três passos para atrair jovens influenciadores (por Eric Druckenmiller)1. Genuineness.A sense of authenticity is why influencers gravitate towards certain social networking destinations. As a marketer, the No. 1 rule of engagement in these spaces is then to remain genuine with messaging and content. This means providing influencers with the opportunity to become informed (exclusive content, behind the scenes, background information, et cetera) on their terms. Pure tune-in or release date messaging won't cut it. An authentic conversation starts with getting to know who "you" are and what you are about. 2. Utility.Similarly, once influencers are empowered with information, they need the tools to express it and share with others. Widgets, customized profiles, one-click blog/profile posting and the like are just some of the current manifestations. Besides creating new tools, marketers can also work within social networking destinations to enhance or underwrite existing utilities-- such as enabling the upload of additional pictures, video, songs or friends.

"I think it's really a generational shift. It's hard for us to think that way."e mais"The panelists all agreed on one point: traditional media, from TV stations to advertisers to the print industry, really isn't in touch with the "IM generation" of tech-savvy teenagers and college students. But beyond that, there was some disagreement on whether youth marketing should aim for uber-specific niche targeting or generalist business models that can be interpreted and implemented differently."
