Learnings From Two Years as a Community Manager: Just Ask

Learnings From Two Years as a Community Manager: Just Ask | Ally Greer | Scoop.it

If it wasn't extremely obvious from the majority of my writing, I'm obsessed with learning. When I started out my career as a community manager, I didn't even know what that meant. Two years later, I'm still not quite sure there is a single definition, but I certainly have learned a lot about what it means to build community, run social media strategies, and bring value to the crowded web with a group of brilliant content curators who I've been lucky enough to meet through the journey.

Why lean is the future of content marketing #SMWNYC

In conjunction with Social Media Week NYC, Scoop.it's Ally Greer spoke to attendees and content marketers about the #leancontent methodology and how to use curation to jumpstart a business.
Ally Greer's curator insight, February 24, 2014 5:22 PM

On Wednesday, I hosted a Social Media Week to discuss the #leancontent framework and some tips on how to use curation to jumpstart a business / content marketing strategy.


For the first half of the talk, we went through the ideas behind information overload, lean content (leverage, experiment, automate, measure) and how finding ways to make an impact without spending loads of time and money can help further a brand and/or business.


Secondly, we went through the seven parts of a lean content curation strategy:

1. Content discovery: finding the right content to share with your audience.

2. Website hosting and integration: finding a place for your content to live online and be indexed in search.

3. Scheduling: spending a small amount of time setting up the rest of your day, then adopting the "set it and forget it" mentality.

4. Analytics: understanding your unique audience.

5. Team curation: involving the rest of your company in content creation and offloading resposibilities.

6. Distribution: making sure all of your audiences (on different platforms) see your content. Automate this process with tools like Scoop.it

7. Increased visibility: if you aren't posting, someone else will be.

More validation as to why I am using curation. Thanks Scoop.it #curation#contentmanagement+

Dima Arkas's curator insight, February 25, 2014 11:19 PM

Cтратегия скупого курирования:

1. Найти правильный контент, чтобы поделиться с аудиторией.

2. Запустить сайт + интегрировать в соц.сети - обеспечить прямой эфир + индексацию в поиске.

3. Планировать быстро: "настроил и забыл".

4. Аналитика: понимать свою уникальную аудиторию.

5. Команда курирования: с участием остальной части вашей компании в области создания контента и публикации оного.

6. Распространение: убедиться, что вся ваша аудитории (на разных платформах) видит ваш контент..Автоматизировать процессы с инструментами, как Scoop.it

7. Увеличивать видимость: публиковать и публиковать.

What is Google Authorship? Tips and Resources

What is Google Authorship? Tips and Resources | Ally Greer | Scoop.it
Last week, Scoop.it announced its integration with Google+ Pages and Google Authorship. As CEO Guillaume Decugis explained, “we actually believe curation is a form of creation.
Eric Chan Wei Chiang's curator insight, June 4, 2014 3:27 AM

 

Google Authorship is fast becoming an indispensable tool for blogging as well as personal branding.

 

Some social media gurus even wrote about how Google Authorship saved Google+ from becoming irrelevant.

 

Nonetheless, personal branding benefits both organizations ad institutions alike. More person branding tips here: http://sco.lt/4skttp
