Branding is what makes millions of people assert that
one cola brand tastes better than the other.

associations we have of the brand, the image, the can, and even the red of the
logo.” - Coca Cola

Online Branding
The Medium: Internet
Brands are an integral part of regular conversation:
◦ 80% of the Twitter users surveyed had mentioned a brand in their Tweets
during September 2013 and March 2014.
◦ 54% of Twitter users reported that they have taken action after seeing brand
mentions in Tweets.
◦ 20% conducted an online search for the brand after seeing a brand-related Tweet.
◦ 79% of respondents who viewed brand-related tweets both from the brand and a
non-brand source reported taking some kind of action online or offline.

Twitter released a study this week, in partnership with The Advertising Research Foundation, FOX and DB5, called “Discovering the Value of Earned
Audiences - How Twitter Expressions Activate Consumers.”
Online Branding
The Medium: Internet
Key take away:
◦ People don’t just follow brands, they talk about them
◦ Consumers take action both online and offline after seeing brand mentions in
Tweets
◦ The source of the Tweet containing a brand mention affects consumer actions
◦ Since Tweet exposure drives actions across platforms including searching,
engagement and purchase, integrate Tweet messages and calls to action with
campaigns on other media.
◦ Tactics like adding #hashtags to other media such as TV ads, as well as
engaging key audiences in one-to-one interactions can help drive volume and
quality of earned media conversation.

How to build your personal brand?
Use social media - fast, real time, wide spread
◦ Share valuable and helpful Content
◦ Change your Profile photo
◦ Upload photos frequently
◦ Communicate - Don’t make Statements - Have conversations
◦ Right message at right time
◦ Engage your audience
◦ Respond to as many as you can
◦ Call to action - free stuff, ask for next action or feedback
◦ Let people see and hear you
◦ Play the long game
Online Branding - Personal Branding
An advert on gumtree.com for a music teacher:
Interesting resumes came to the top…while searching on Google…
◦ 1. MySpace page - A picture of the applicant, drinking beer. Under hobbies,
the first entry was, "drinking."
◦ 2. A personal blog - The most recent entry said something like, “I am
passionate about music and teaching.“ There were good comments on the
videos on the page.
◦ 3 and 4 - From the local police department, indicating that the applicant had
been arrested for shoplifting two years ago.
Google never forgets!
Everything you do now ends up in almost permanent record. The best plan is to
overload Google with a long tail of good and useful stuff (to others) and to always
act as if you're on Candid Camera, because you are.
I am my projects
