		<description>Martin:  Interesting.  So you&#039;re recommending creating something like a &quot;relevant conversation tag cloud&quot; and disseminating it to all vendors, partners and internal staff?  I could see where something like that could be of value.

Along similar lines, I&#039;d also recommend having some &quot;standard position&quot; copy for frequently-discussed hot topics in your industry.  NOT to cut and paste into social media discussions, but just as a guide so everyone knows what the official brand stance is on a topic.

For example, a person could comment that &quot;XYZ Company&#039;s usual take on that is [paraphrase of standard position], but my own personal opinion is ________.&quot;

I don&#039;t think anyone believes you ought to be spouting &quot;canned brand messaging&quot; on social sites, but on the other hand, you don&#039;t sound like an empowered representative of an organization if you don&#039;t appear to have at least a clear idea what their position is on their own industry hot topics.</description>

		<description>I&#039;d add that as a brand manager to succeed in social marketing you need to start with a really good keyword phrase set that includes brands, competitors, people, products, etc., and is quite specific. This makes a big difference not only in discovery but also in helping team members understand how the process works and what their role is. If everyone knows the keywords then you can ensure that they understand the conversation in context and respond appropriately in context (double emphasis on &#039;in context!).</description>
