Ford: Your Ideas

listen_attentively.jpg

Após mergulharmos na era do intangível (mudança proporcionada basicamente pelo advento da web) emergiu a democratização da informação e a transferência de poder para o consumidor. Essa “revolução” transformou as relações no mundo das marcas.

Como base principal destas novas práticas de relacionamento, está a importância da transparência.  Transparência entre marca x consumidor.

Dia após dia, essa tendência só se solidifica, ganhando cada vez mais adeptos.

Numa estratégia similar ao My Starbucks Ideas (uma referência de sucesso), a Ford dos Estados Unidos resolveu estreitar o contato com seus consumidores ao apostar em uma nova ferramenta social online: Your Ideas.

Visitando o portal da montadora americana, os consumidores podem enviar sugestões de tópicos livres, ou participar de enquetes pré-determinadas. (O Autoblog listou alguns dos temas na qual a Ford espera receber feedbacks de seus consumidores engajados em contribuir com soluções para um futuro mais sustentável e menos problemático, nos mais diversos âmbitos).

Transparência também é sinônimo de prevenção. Portanto, para a Ford dos Estados Unidos, uma marca que está sempre pronta para conversar com seu público-alvo através das mídias sociais, este tipo de tática só enaltece sua reputação, a troca de confianças e a previne de problemas que futuramente poderão surgir. Hoje, transparência é premissa.

History Channel em ação especial no Foursquare para promover a série “America”

Foursquare History Channel

O History Channel começou uma ação especial no Foursquare, vinculada a sua nova série “America”, que estreia nos Estados Unidos no dia 25 de abril contando 400 anos de história do país.

Segue os mesmos moldes das iniciativas realizadas pela HBO e Warner recentemente, mas essa me parece a mais interessante até agora. Ao dar check in em lugares famosos e/ou históricos dos Estados Unidos, o History Channel fornece uma dica que aborda a origem do local. Exemplo:

@ Times Square: This area was originally named Longacre Square but was renamed in 1904 when the NY Times moved to the skyscraper now known as One Times Square at 42nd St., famous for the Times Square Ball drop.

Foi criado conteúdo para 100 lugares diferentes, e o check in em vários deles libera um badge especial (imagem ao lado) da ação, em edição limitada, segundo o History Channel.

Existe ainda uma promoção, que irá sortear aleatoriamente dez usuários do Foursquare por semana, de 25 de abril a 6 de junho, para ganhar prêmios relacionados a série. Para ler mais sobre ações no Foursquare e similares, leia nossa trend Geosocial.
