3M Buzz Marketing Called
Exploitive
Corporate marketing
in the social media world revolves around viral success. Usually,
this involves creating a uniquely clever campaign, and doing all
that one can to jump-start the social media fire: blog posts,
videos, contests, and more. In 3M's case, the "Post-It Note Jaguar"
already existed, and rather than paying a small fee to the
photographer who conjured the idea in the first place, 3M decided
to appropriate the content for themselves. The backlash in the
social media world they'd hope to find favor in has already
begun.
3M公司病毒营销案例的强势性
在社会化媒体的环境中做公司营销,处处要考虑到病毒传播规则。通常,要做到病毒营销需要策划独创性的事件活动,并且通过这些所有努力让此事在社会化媒体的介质中火起来,如博客、视频、论坛等等。在3M公司的这个营销案例中,就证明了这点,只不过他们的案例更具强势性。他们为捷豹策划的“Post-It
Note
Jaguar”活动创意来源于别人,但最终他们选择自己来完成这个项目,并且最初期望的社会化媒体病毒营销的结果在活动一开始就已经做到了。
附加相关背景资料
一个摄影师用其工作时间做了一款贴着便条纸的JAGUAR,然后3M公司的人找他们问是否可以用它的图片,并且可以修改使用,后来因为价格谈不拢,相差了1000美金,3M就根据这个创意推出了这个产品(从另一个角度来是算是剽窃),而且还开设了YOUTUBE,告诉大家可以按照视频中的做法,把便条纸贴满你家的爱车,当然其最终目的是为了让你多买他们的产品。
