Listening - using social media as “real time” research and gaining insights from listening to customers.

Talking - using conversations with customers to promote products or services, authentically

Energizing - building brand stewardship; and identifying enthusiastic customers and using them to persuade others.

Supporting - making it possible for customers to help each other.

Embracing - turning customers into a resource for innovation.

Two-way conversations

Supporting the enterprise and IT geeks

Community for IT professionals Several different OEMS and

other companies participate; and even moderate content

It serves as the “go to” destination for all things geeky

Tapping into consumer innovation

Joint venture with Asus and Intel

Thriving community of early adopters and tech setters

Tapping this community for their innovative ideas

Desktop Processor Tested and branded as “the

fastest processor on the planet”

Geared for small niche audience of content creators or those who need processor speed & efficiency

– Multimedia creation– Animators– Film makers– HD Video Editing

Energizing the Community

19

Digital Drag Race

Create a program that:

– Engages content creators – Displays the power of the

processor– Builds in functionality to map back

to social behaviors

– Builds community

The Digital Drag Race concept addressed several key issues:

– It spoke directly to the audience we wanted to engage with

– Easy to integrate naturally with Intel.com

– Visually displayed the “speed” of the processor

– Easy to add behaviors/functionality

Digital Drag Race – User Generated Content Creation of user battles Winner would get a “shot out”
