If you have twenty minutes and want to understand the fundamentals of R.O.I., business measurement, Social Media business planning, Vertical vs. Lateral Engagement and F.R.Y., it’s all right here. This might be a good video to send to the CMO, CFO, COO and even the CEO, if you have that kind of relationship with them.

Great presentation. Do you see the agency model ever contributing beyond the non-financial metrics or will it always require a data hand-off to someone internally on the client side?
The agency model needs to understand that the game has changed, that measurement is a lot richer now, and that clients aren’t going to be satisfied with “impressions” and other soft, intermediate metrics forever.
That said, only the client has access to financial/sales/transactional data, so they have to open up to their agencies as well. Agencies can’t measure what’s hidden behind the castle wall. 😉
That is by far the best preso on Social Media I’ve seen in the past two years.
It would be good to create a Timeline Template for us to use.
