The Social Media Handbook: Rules, Policies, and Best Practices to Successfully Manage Your Organization's Social Media Presence, Posts, and Potential

The Social Media Handbook: Rules, Policies, and Best Practices to Successfully Manage Your Organization's Social Media Presence, Posts, and Potential Review



The Social Media Handbook is a comprehensive risk and compliance management toolkit that walks employers step-by-step through the process of developing and implementing effective social media policy and compliance management programs that are designed to minimize—and in some cases prevent—social networking and web 2.0 risks and other electronic disasters.

Throughout this important resource Nancy Flynn (an internationally recognized expert on workplace social media) offers a guide to best practices for creating safe, effective, and compliant electronic business communications. The book contains a thorough review of the risks inherent in employees' social media use and content and explores how organizations can help manage behavior, mitigate risks, and maximize compliance through the implementation of strategic social media compliance management programs. These programs combine written policies, supported by comprehensive employee education and are enforced by proven-effective technology tools. Once these policies and programs are in place employers can safely take advantage of the marketing and communications benefits offered by social media.

Covering a wealth of material, the book includes vital information on topics such as social media and the law; managing records and e-discovery compliantly; regulatory compliance; privacy and security; blog risks and compliance rules; mobile devices drive social media risks; a seven-step plan for social media policy and compliance management; conducting a social media audit; creating social media policies; content rules and compliance; policy compliance and education; reputation management; and more.

In addition to addressing pertinent topics on risk management, the book contains cautionary, real-life social networking disaster stories that show how organizations can lose revenue and reputations, reveals how employees can lose jobs, and explains how individuals can face public humiliation.

The Social Media Handbook is a hands-on guide written for human resource professionals, information technology managers, legal professionals, compliance officers, records managers, and others who need to manage today's technology tools with up-to-date employment rules.

Blogs y medios. Las claves de una relacion de interes mutuo (Spanish Edition)

Blogs y medios. Las claves de una relacion de interes mutuo (Spanish Edition) Review



Ya desde mediados de los 90 que los blogs no paran de crecer. Pero es desde hace menos tiempo que se convirtieron en una realidad que ha trascendido el ambito de lo personal para tener protagonismo y eficacia en esferas como el periodismo o la comunicacion corporativa. Un nuevo estilo de informar, la experimentacion con nuevos formatos y la consolidacion de una comunidad tan activa como heterogenea. No cabe duda de que la comunidad bloguer, uno de los colectivos mas activos de la Red, ha supuesto un nuevo hito en la relativamente corta historia de Internet. Tenemos incluso investigadores que no dudan en afirmar que los blogs han tenido un impacto similar al nacimiento de la imprenta. Y si a nivel global la revolucion puede ser de esta magnitud, cabe preguntarse por tanto que consecuencias tendra exclusivamente en el ambito del periodismo. Si bien es cierto que hasta la fecha son numerosos los estudios sobre las relaciones entre periodismo y blogs, asi como los relacionados con las posibilidades corporativas de esta herramienta, no encontramos en el primer caso ningun trabajo significativo sobre la posibilidad de que los blogs anticipen nuevos cibergeneros periodisticos, como tampoco vemos entre los otros estudios trabajos que mencionen a los medios como grandes generadores de imagen corporativa. Por eso, comenzando por los blogs como un anticipo de cibergeneros, este texto presenta aquellos blogs que pueden entenderse como una accion corporativa del medio. Y aunque podrian entenderse de esta forma todos los blogs de medios (ya que ayudan a encontrar nuevos nichos de publicos y a reforzar la relacion con los ya existentes), abordaremos como principales bitacoras corporativas de los medios basicamente dos tipos: aquellas en las que se ofrece informacion sobre el propio cibermedio y las que son blogs colectivos elaborados con las aportaciones de la audiencia. A pesar de la juventud de las relaciones entre blogs y medios, o precisamente tal vez por eso, es el momento oportuno para detenernos y mirar fijamente el panorama mediatico presente. Y sobre todo, el que se avecina en un ambito, el periodistico, al que los blogs han llegado para quedarse.

    How To Blog, Build An Audience And Kick-Start Your Brand Or Business Without Selling Your Soul

    How To Blog, Build An Audience And Kick-Start Your Brand Or Business Without Selling Your Soul Review



    * * *

    Do you remember the days when a mere mention of the word “blog” would split a room in two?

    Within a second you could have the nerds and technologically informed silently nodding to themselves and rolling their eyes while the uninitiated blurted out: “HUH? WHAT? A BLOB?!“

    Then, unavoidable as the Amen in church, the geeky litany was unrolled: that the word blog was actually a blend of “web-log“ and usually referred to a collection of entries in reverse-chronological which could theoretically consist of text, audio, video and allowed interactivity in the form of comments.

    Today, nobody talks like that anymore.

    Every child knows what a blog is. Every groundskeeper and aunt from overseas has stumbled over one, before.

    And yet, whenever the word blog is mentioned in newspapers and television programs, it is still often treated as if there were invisible quotation marks around it. As if blogs were part of some deeply obscure and terribly unpredictable underworld that were at best approached with caution, at worst avoided as mere swamps of disinformation.

    And, to give them some credit: there are these blogs full of political rants, biased to the brim, their contents almost as outrageous as their bad spelling.

    Then again, they are just one example of blogging and are in no way representative of the whole spectrum of blogging.

    In the same way Victorian poetry and a clumsily translated vaccuum-cleaner manual have not much more in common than being made up of words, also the functions, aesthetics and contents of various blogs can be like day and night.

    This book is about one particular approach to blogging, one which I’m fond of calling: The Third Kind (Don’t worry, it doesn’t involve making mountain-shaped models of mud or going on an unpaid alien abduct…, er… holiday.)

    This particular approach can be described as follows: building blogs as an attention-infrastructure.

    It sounds a bit abstract, doesn't it?

    Here are some practical aspects of what an attention-infrastructure can do for you:

    - stir up a buzz around your band, brand or business
    - attract more customers, fans, sales or sign-ups
    - build a reputation
    - pave the way for world-domination…

    The best about this is that while a consistent blogging campaign can generate the same results (or higher) than an advertising campaign it doesn’t cost anything and it’s not even felt as advertising, because it’s more like a free sample than a coupon.

    Now, obviously there are a lot of books and other forms of advice about blogging that promise to get you a such and such figure income per year, etc.

    And while, at least on the technical side, they aren’t all wrong, blogging for financial gains is a complete understatement of what a blog can do! This doesn’t mean that a blog can’t also help businesses and individuals make money. A third kind approach to blogging will and should certainly and unmistakably help to ramp up the bacon, so you can focus on other things.

    But blogging for dough is like being satisfied with fool’s gold.

    The third kind approach to blogging starts where other approaches stop.

    It does not just bring quick sales today but has the potential to put anyone’s business on a trajectory of growth and inevitable success in the long haul, if subjected to the right pressure, commitment and quality.

    In this book you'll find out how to:

    - get a professional blog up and running without any programming experience
    - crank out writing that will bring your band, brand or business attention
    - build mailing-lists that build themselves
    - create buttons and links that actually get clicked
    - write irresistible headlines
    - come up with a writing schedule that you (and your readers) can actually follow
    - use Social Media to make your blog go viral without wasting time and effort
    - keep writing when the going gets tough
    - capitalize on feedback without falling prey to statistics
    - get professional photos for free
    - create articles that sell
    and much more...
