Making the Grade in Social Media Marketing | Simple Score Sheet
Is there a simple way to tell how you’re doing in social media? How can you gauge what’s working and what needs to be fixed?
In preparing for a presentation, I came up with ways to rank five social media marketing and PR essential elements.
Plan
Platforms
Keywords
Images
Stories

I’ve been researching how the gov will be using social media for transparency and possibly using the collective input for saving money, cutting programs, etc.
I’m thinking about the stories aspect. Do you know of any good examples already up and running?

Thanks for your question, Annette. In checking the latest on twitter, I saw a few links that might interest you:
http://search.twitter.com/search?q=social+media%2C+government
If you see someone who is talking about a topic you’re interested in, you can find out how to contact them from the link in their twitter profile. Or, if you have a twitter account you can chat with them directly.
Here’s a story about how one county government exec used twitter as a newsbreaker: http://tr.im/gJwe.
The Obama administration is putting out a call for stories, as you can see here: http://www.recovery.gov/?q=content/share-your-experience
Locally, our high school added an additional requirement for social studies so that our students will be better prepared to be tell their stories and serve as civic leaders.
