Get early warnings • In a social web where people are highly connected a rumor might be spread very quickly • To manage a crisis in social media it is critical to respond very quickly • In order to get early warning companies need dedicated resources: people and buzz analytics tools
Identify your influencers • From the Dell Hell case we learn that when you deal with one customer you deal with all customers • A conversation starts one-to-on, then goes one-to-many and finally many-to-many • Remember: a small number of people (mavens) drive most of the conversation about your brand
Own your front page • Google shows user-generated comments in the search result pages • if you have a share of voice for your brand keywords, bad comments will get diluted • You cannot control the conversation but you should have a voice
Importance of the earned media • Own Media. Online properties of the company: website, micro-sites, FB page, twitter profile, YT channel… • Paid Media. Placements you pay for: sponsored links, promoted videos, banners, displays, TV spot, magazine • Earned Media. user-generated comments about your brand: twitts, blog posts, facebook likes…
From social media to mass media • In Dell Hell or Taco Bell we learn that social media and mass media are connected • Something starts as a rumor in social media, gets bigger and jumps to mass media • One its in the mass media not only reaches a larger audience but also reinforces the conversation in SM

Censorship does not work • In 2003 Barbara Streissand suit a photographer for taking a photo of her mansion.. • As part of a 12.000-photo project to show the erosion of the west cost of USA • The photo was viewed more than 400.000 times that month and published in newspapers and TV shows
Go where the conversation is • In 2010 Greenpeace accused Nestle of using a certain oil for the production of Kit Kat • The extraction of that oil was causing a deforestation in Indonesia and the extinction of the orangutan • Instead of going to the social media Nestle tried to derive the conversation to its website without comments
Be sensitive with tragedies • This is an example of a seemingly novel social media donation campaign can go wrong • Comedian Michael lan Black with more than 1.6 million followers responded to the campaign with this tweet • The company stopped the campaign and apologize but people continued talking not to kindly about Microsoft
Use humor when appropriate • In 2008 a user uploaded to youtube a video of a glitch of the game Tiger Woods 08 • In the game one could see Tiger standing on the top of a lake and driving the ball into the hole • The company responded with another video showing that this was actually true in real life, using sense of humor
