Davvero, ringrazio per la favolosa opportunità, ma non mi sento ancora abbastanza VIP …
E poi, sbaglierò, ma i signori della Pinco Pallo hanno le idee ancora un po’ confuse sulla blogosfera. Prima di tutto mi sembra che il buzz-marketing non si faccia lusingando una massa indistinta di blogger. Non mi pare inoltre che un blog possa assumere una posizionamento di rilievo, credibilità, autorità etc etc, previa iscrizione all’apposito circuito.
Ma forse sono io che mi sbaglio… anzi sbaglio io di sicuro. Il Pinco Pallo XY7777 troneggerà sicuramente su milioni di blog.

- At its core, public relations is the management of an organization’s efforts aimed at building and maintaining positive relationships with its strategic publics. A strategic public is one that, in the absence of a strong relationship, could produce obstacles to the organization’s ability to achieve its objectives.
- Public relations is about influence. Organizations can and should wield influence ethically. Among academics, ethical public relations is often referred to as “two-way and symmetrical.” That is, the relationships result in win-win scenarios in which both the organization and the public achieve their goals. The tools of two-way symmetrical communication include negotation and boundary-spanning.
Ma più avanti trovo anche questa stimolante considerazione:
“As conversations become the principal characteristic of company-public engagement, the relationships themselves will prove more valuable to organizations than influence. As with the notion of the mission statement, focusing on relationships for their own sake will surely lead to the outcomes organizations seek (sales, friendly regulatory environments, minimal activist activity, support for initiatives, etc.). Or, to put it more simply, who needs to wield influence when you’ve got friends ?”

- Companies suffering from low levels of word of mouth advocacy and high levels of negative word of mouth, such as Lloyds-TSB, Sainsbury’s, Fiat and T-Mobile, grew slower than their competitors.
- A 7 per cent increase in word of mouth advocacy unlocks 1 per cent additional company growth.
- A 2 per cent reduction in negative word of mouth boosts sales growth by 1 per cent.

P.S. di mercoledì 24: RISOLTO !
Via Media guerrilla leggo alcune considerazioni di Richard Edelman sul futuro delle relazioni pubbliche, considerazioni espresse durante un “live talk” su Syndacate.
Tra le altre:
Press releases will be deconstructed: how companies produce and package their news via the press release will change but not die.
PR will play a critical role in early stage product development: with PR teams increasingly listening to and participating in edge conversations, the richness of this information in aggregate will be invaluable for product development. Also, the concept of co-creation,
where “edge conversationalists” are invited in to actively influence and shape new products will be a unique value that PR can bring to bear for both the company and the audiences that care about these products.
PR will have a seat in the c-suite: as the eyes, ears and voice of a company, a bridge really to the conversational edge, executive teams will need to rely (heavily) on the input
and counsel of communication leaders when it comes to strategic business decisions.
Mi ha particolarmente colpito la previsione circa il ruolo delle PR in quello che Edelman definisce “early stage product development” . Si tratta di un’area di intervento innovativa e , per quanto riguarda la mia personale esperienza, pressochè sconosciuta in Italia.
Va anche rilevato che questo nuovo ruolo presuppone un’attività di PR/marketing decisamente attenta al blogging e capace di progettare e gestire con l’azienda gli spazi conversazionali necessari perchè questi processi si possano realizzare.
Capito, uomini di marketing in ascolto ? I blog come spazi di conversazione con i pubblici dell’azienda, come risorsa, non mini-siti, fake blog et similia.
Giusto per mostrarvi i simpatici auguri che ho ricevuto dal sito dell’Inter.La taglia mi sembra un po’ abbondante … (Oddio, forse neanche tanto, che sia un monito per un po’di dieta ?!)
