The analysis believes that several key decisions were critical:
- Lean On Influencers and Validators
Don’t try to start from scratch when you’re behind….leverage those with reach and influence. - Tune Out Twitter, and Focus on ‘Facebook Moms’
Know your audience and appeal to them in a positive way. - Build a Facebook Brains Trust
Create a “rebel alliance” to bring forces together. - Promote ‘Small-Batch Creators,’ Not Just Slick Commercials
Aim for real, authentic messages rather than over-produced materials. - Fight Misinformation, but pick your battles
Be careful not to be spread too thinly across too many fronts.
