Cyberbranding: Grow Your Brand on the Internet (IIR) — San Francisco, CA
What’s the “killer app” of 1999? Will online communities continue to be the
rage or is it a passing fad? Is compelling content enough to keep users coming
back? These questions and more will be posed to our distinguished panel of speakers
who will help us discern substance from hype. Their differing approaches will
give us a “reality check” as we compare and contrast each panelist’s strategies
and the intended (and unintended) results.
Moderated by Stephan Spencer, President of Internet Concepts LLC

Cyberbranding: Grow Your Brand on the Internet (IIR) — San Francisco, CA
Discussion forums in the forms of Usenet “newsgroups”, email-based “lists” and Web site “virtual communities” can be a powerful tool for branding. However,
seldom are companies really “in control” of these online forums. The tide can
quickly turn against your company: one solitary message triggering a flood of
negative comments from disgruntled users. One doesn’t have to be “on the Net”
to suffer the effects of negative branding on online communities. In one of
the most powerful demonstrations of the influence that Usenet wields over large
corporations, the “Pentium bug” P.R. fiasco stemmed from a college math professor’s
posting to several discussion groups that he discovered a calculation flaw in
Intel’s Pentium chip. Learn proactive and reactive techniques for dealing with
negative posts, how innocent company postings can backfire, participating vs.
moderating.

Strategic Planning For Internet Marketing — Chicago, IL
Knowing your competitors is as important as knowing your customers. And the Internet can be a powerful tool to obtain and disseminate late-breaking information about your competitor’s products, services, pricing, customers, marketing strategy, etc. Your company’s success depends on monitoring and searching your competitors’ knowledgebases, expanding your own knowledgebases on your competitors, and serving disinformation to them.
- search engine of competitors’ sites on your intranet: collect and index the entire content of all your competitors’ sites and assemble it under one search engine
- competitor profiles and news: build and maintain realtime-accessible data warehouses with information obtained from the media, research firms, your employees, and even your competitors
- monitoring of competitors’ web sites with offline browsers: find out what’s new and changed on the competitor’s site before even their own employees do
- counterintelligence on your web site: give your competitors the wrong information
