Huge thanks to our amazing sponsors for helping us make this happen. Please support them; we couldn't do it without their help! This week: Salesforce Marketing Cloud Full Episode Details As social media has evolved, those who work with social media marketing have gained more freedom to make crucial decisions around what goes out and what doesn’t. Not every company update or press release has to be broadcasted on social media. As Rick Wion, Senior Director of Consumer Engagement of The Kellogg Company said, “for social, we really just need to focus in on this one component of things versus supporting every part of every program with a plethora of social content.” The hard truth is that not every update is “social media worthy.” Brands need to be more selective about the content they share on social media. Making sure your brand communicates authentically is vital and being attuned to what your audience wants to see from you is perhaps even more important.  In This Episode: 03:12 – How social media marketing and communications have evolved 07:11 – How the evolution of social media has impacted how Kellogg’s constructs their social media and consumer engagement teams 10:30 – How Kellogg’s uses social media to have important conversations with their audience around food security 12:48 - How the brand’s messaging and timing of messages have changed since the pandemic 16:19 – How being classified as an essential business impacted the company, the social media marketing team, and business operations during the pandemic 18:43 – How Kellogg’s uses data and research to shape conversations on social media 23:25 – How Tony the Tiger helps to share the brand’s voice on social media 25:45 – How to empower an organization to leverage social media listening and insights Resources Get the new State of Marketing report for free from Salesforce Find out more about the community at SocialMedia.org with a special form for Social Pros listeners Learn more about Kellogg’s Visit SocialPros.com for more insights from your favorite social media marketers.
