Discover the relationships those you
tweet with have.
Surface the themes relevant to your
2d degree circle.
Drill in to discover affinity
relationships
Ex. Twitter and Townhall both
discuss #AskObama. Potential for
joint campaign around that theme.
13. Social Media Trends and Opportunities
The mid-October spike resulted from of a
feature release that encouraged social sharing
from within the app.
The late November dip was likely driven by
Thanksgiving holidays, as fewer people used
the app on Thanksgiving.
Client should consider integrating online and
event marketing efforts, with campaigns at
industry events in LA and mobile app events in
Seattle.
A foursquare scavenger hunt, booth demo
giveaways, or FanAdvocate events can generate
additional buzz. …and so on…
