9AM Crowdsourcery Potions 101: Why Some Marketing Potions Fail and Others Thrive, Hosted By JWT

Some have predicted that crowdsourcing is the future of the marketing, advertising and industrial design industry. The phenomenon, they argue, will accelerate creativity across a larger network. Others, meanwhile, have predicted that it is a passing fad but one that downward pressure on prices on current agency work.  So which is it? Does crowdsourcing represent the beginning of the end of creative organizations? Or does it herald the beginning of something bigger and transformational for those agencies - and for business in general?

12PM Networked News Gatherers: Defining the Social Media Editor Role, hosted by Time Inc.

There's lots of talk about who "owns" social media for companies that decide to enter the space to reach their consumers. Usually these discussions focus on Marketing, PR, Customer Service or an Agency. But in the media world there's another option: the Social Media Editor.

We'll bring together Social Media Editors from some of the largest and most well-respected media outlets, as well as those in more traditional Editorial roles to discuss this new specialty role.

Four days ago, a team of Wall Street veterans launched Track.com, a new marketplace for independent research providers.  I met with the management team today.  Ironically, they’re sharing offices with Tracked.com, another NY startup.  John Frankel, the Founder, said that the people at Tracked like the domain name Track so much that they bought Tracked.com.

 

Track.com offers independent research providers a platform to distribute their intellectual property.  Buyers pay subscriptions for access to the pool of content. Similar to Value Investors Club, the general public can get access to the content at no charge after a delay.

 

It looks like an institutional version of SeekingAlpha.  It also has components of the market for research that AQ Research tried to launch some time ago.  Eventually, I’m sure Track will build out internal discussion functionality similar to other collaborative investing startups.

 

I think their greatest obstacle is noise.  There is a deluge of opinions available on the markets in every possible medium, and for every possible view on the market you will find someone passionately defending that view. 

 

The most clever parts of their model are:

- the appeal to elitism, which has a proven appeal on Wall Street

- the recruiting of Wall Street alumni in transition, who want to keep their brand visible in the market.  Given my background working with executives in transition, I particularly liked this aspect of the model.

- the tiered display of research over time, in order to price discriminate. 

 

I look forward to following their progress.  FYI, they’re actively hiring developers.

The panel was called Information Wants to be Expensive, but the panelists represented businesses with price points lower than or equal to their competitors. In fact, Gawker's Gaby Darbyshire oversees a company reeking havoc with media giants by offering content to users for free. The title might have been a misnomer, but the opinions presented during the discussion at Cipriani 42nd Street were relevant to those working to perfect their business model.

"Look at your business and try to find a way to make money off of change," was the advice of Jim Fowler, the CEO of Jigsaw Data Corporation. His company offers traditional data list services, but also offers a proprietary system through which their clients are able to get updated data lists daily. He used the difference between Encyclopedia Britannica and Wikipedia as an example.

"My nine-year-old son is going to grow up and not even know what Encyclopedia Britannica is unless he reads about it on Wikipedia," said Fowler.

Darbyshire added that the businesses in her industry have to cut costs. "It is not sustainable to have these incredibly huge newsrooms where everyone reports on the same facts," she said.

The third panelist, CEO Cheryl Milone of Article One Partners, added that businesses must engage their customers and ask for their opinions. "Ask your customers what they want. Have a deep desire to listen and learn from them," she said. Milone added that Encyclopedia Britannica might have had a chance against Wikipedia if they had reached out to their diminishing customer base and adjusted their business based on that feedback. Then again, maybe not.

Simultaneously in multiple cities around the world, Social Media Week advances the use and understanding of social media in the corporate, public and non-profit sectors. Join expert panelists in the field of social media and viral communications on February 2 at 6:30 at For Your Imagination as they offer insights and guidance to what works and what doesn't in creating successful social media and viral campaigns. Hosted by Gordon Platt of Gotham Media and moderated by For Your Imagination co-founder Paul Kontonis, the discussion will be about social media tools, techniques and new ideas followed by a wine chaser. Seat are limited, please RSVP.

Mobile Monday hosted its first event in Brooklyn last night, Mobile Monday Brooklyn or #MoMoBk on Twitter.  Sponsored by RRE Ventures, the event consisted of networking and nine mobile applications presentations by NYC-based developers, incuding:

- Hot Potato: The application, only available for the Apple iPhone, currently allows users to chat and share photos in a "chat room" like environment on their phone.  The next version, due out before SXSW Interactive, is expected to have audio and video capabilities.

- Big Mapple: Currently available only on the Web, this application allows users to see nearby events on a map of their neighborhood. 

- Sit or Squat: The brainchild of one of the co-inventors, this application was developed to help her locate bathrooms in Manhattan's Midtown neighborhood.  Originally, it listed all of the bathrooms she had on her blog, but now, its database consists of restrooms submitted by users.

- BeerCloud: This Drupal-powered application was described as a "Wikipedia" for beer.

- NYC Broken Meters: This application assists users in finding broken parking meters in New York City where, according to law, parking is legal and free.

- Where Brooklyn App?: Developed by DUMBO, Brooklyn-based Carrot Creative in their Carrot Labs, this applicaton enables users to find out historical information about the borough, the locations of parks, upload photos via Flickr, and find out more about trending venues from Foursquare.

- Primo Spot: This paid application allows users to view parking regulations based on where they plan to park.

- Stylecaster: Due to a technical snafu, this application's creators were not able to show attendees what it does, but they informed the audience that it offers suggestions on what to wear based on the current weather wherever you are in the world.

- PegShot: The final presentation involved sample images which had been "pegged" to a specific location and shared via services such as Twitter and Facebook.
