Digital Life recruits 1769 new fans during IT Show 2011 Campaign with Facebook Fan Recognition

Digital Life partnered Taggo during the recent IT Show to recognised fans of the Digital Life Facebook Page and offered their Facebook fans some benefits from the IT vendors at the show.

The resulting campaign resulted in Digital Life recruiting a total of 1769 new fans during the four-day show.

The increased in the new fans was highly due to the viral effect which is initiated when ever a fan is recognised at the Digital Life Booth.

According to Facebook, each fan has an average of 150 friends. As such, the status update generated by Taggo on the fan’s wall will be seen by his/her 150 friends. Curious friends interested to find out more about Digital Life’s offer to fans will click on the Digital Life Singapore link and will have more incentive to like the page.

Liking a page itself will only show that the fan has liked a Page. This status update, which can be edited by the Page admin, provides the fan’s friends with more details with why he/she liked the Page. In this case here, the fan is promoting Digital Life’s promotion at the IT Show, and thus becomes more reasons to like the Digital Life Page.

The Facebook recommended cost per click for attracting Singapore fans is at a max of USD1.67. Even if the click thru were as effective as 50%, it would have cost Digital Life and estimated USD5,908 to achieve this fan growth.

Visitors to the Digital Life booth at the IT Show were open to linking their ezlink card with their Facebook account and registration took minutes. Half of the taps at the Digital Life booth come from new fans which showed that visitors were also interested to get fan benefits and find out more about the Digital Life Facebook Page.

Besides the increased in new fans, there were also other benefits that Digital Life took away from the IT Show campaign with Taggo.

Digital Life now has a database of Facebook fans who have registered with Taggo and are, therefore, opened to received updates on future fan benefits. When a fan joins the page, the page admin can only communicate with the fan via the status update. Upon registration with Taggo, the fan would have provided permission to be communicated via email.

The counter staff at Digital Life were also able to greet fans by their name. Instead of “Hi Fan!”, it was “Hi Mr/Ms so and so. Thank you for being a fan!” Instead of shock, most fans look surprised and smiled when greeted by their name.

Singapore radio personality in "hot soup" for reporting train delays based on Tweets?

Update - Hossan Leong has commented on this post to say " I'm not in trouble pls don't blow this out of proportion. Let it rest. It's getting silly. Thank you for your love and concern and I apologize for any misunderstanding." ~  Hossan Leong. Hossan Leong, a Singapore radio personality for The Gold Breakfast Show on Gold 90.5, was censured today for reporting on train delays on the Circle Line because he based the information on Tweets, rather than waiting for the official reports from the Circle Line operator, SMRT.  It is, however, unknown if the "warning" came from Mediacorp producers or SMRT. Tweeted Hossan Leong ,  OK...I reported it on air and now I'm getting into trouble for it?? The CC line is DOWN rite? I did nothing wrong rite? The SMRT Circle Line was reported to be down this morning during peak hours and started as early as 7am. However, local news only received official statement was received by the mainstream media at about 9...

DBS Bank – One Tweet too little too late.

(Updated post - DBS apologise with the 3Rs – Will social media bite? ) It was the bluest Monday for DBS/POS Bank in its entire banking history when more than 1000 of their ATM and online banking services were taken offline due to a software upgrade an outage (PR announced that it was down due to software upgrade, but the outsourcer, IBM, later claimed it was an outage). So on that Monday, DBS decided to sign up onto Twitter and post a 140 characters one-liner onto Twitter to post a one liner to inform the Twitterverse of the down time. Everybody knows that if you just create a new account on Twitter, you would start off with 0 friends. How would you be able to inform the Twitterverse if you start with 0 friends? DBS Bank did something smart to insert the #dbs and #posb and that probably drew some attention to this account. However, the effectiveness of the tweet was lacking as it drew only 28 retweets. As of this posting, DBS Bank attracted 274 followers. A letter to T...

New field in SocialPR: Social Media Crisis Communications

I have been busy with family for the Lunar New Year week but it seem the Singapore blog-o-sphere was active, and is still is, about recently formed Association of Bloggers (Singapore), ABS for short. To cut a long story short, the announcement of ABS via mainstream media didn’t go down well with Singapore bloggers and in the end resulted in some speculation to why ABS was set-up in the first place. A post by the ABS president defending herself against a harsh criticism from a blogger added to the bad start and created even more speculation that ABS was set-up with an ulterior motive. A week later, some founding members of the pro-team started posting up notice of resignation on their blogs and this just added fuel to fire. Again, a story of ABS appeared in mainstream media and this lead to even more disgruntled bloggers asking why the president isn’t responding via her blog or the association’s blog. I also responded to a post about the ABS incident. You can catch a summary of...
