So LO MO What every business needs to know about new marketing Strategy Ralph Sherman @ Madison2main
Social-local-mobile Term first coined by John Doerr, famed internet start-up investor at Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers. Describes the major levers in building successful businesses in the next decade.
Drivers of SO-LO-MO Social Networks: Inter-dependent Communities of Interest Main Street: Local, Shared, Accountable Media Smartphones Instant Empowerment & Scale
SOCIAL: Participation Juggernaut 60 seconds of Social Media sharing— constant conversation is changing behavior, “democratizing” brands, consideration and purchasing.
Apps Transforming Purchase Behavior—Not just eyeballs but sales
Local: New Media is new “point of Sale” • Old Media: • Awareness (Reach) • Attitude (Brand) • Action (Push- Not Interactive) • New Media: • Shared (Targeted) • Rated (Trusted) • Anywhere (Interactive) “Participating” “Broadcasting”
Local: Enablement/Activation tools growing Tech Device Penetration & Expanded Demographics: Smartphones everywhere and people who know how to use them Apps That Make Money: Many more proven models for monetizing search, visits and clicks QR (Quick Response) Codes: Scan for “real-time” info and options (e.g., compare, share, activate) Targeted Data: Sites getting better at capturing, packaging and selling detailed customer data
Mobile: Everyplace is a Retail storefront Square Credit Card Reader

So-lo-mo: Conclusions • Markets have always responded to innovation, scale, convenience and affordability—SOLOMO strategy touches each platform • “Real-time” is a powerful consumer and seller “button” • Referral, testimony remains a powerful driver for B2B and B2C marketing—new media dramatically expands its value • Smartphone penetration is rapidly reaching the “tipping point”– content and app innovation is just beginning • “Old” media is not dead—Reach remains powerful dynamic, but targeting efficiency of new media requires careful integration of platforms and tactics
