Joined-up marketing is in the PhotoBox DNA – the company has straddled the online and offline worlds since its inception in 2000. This presentation will discuss our Facebook integration and outreach effort and how social media activities are used to leverage offline activities - and vice versa. It will cover how Facebook apps can generate revenue through a simple user journey without the in-your-face sales approach that is inimical to social media and still retain the fun inherent in the platform. Also noted will be the importance of appropriate targeting, and of evolving apps as associated social platforms and behaviours evolve.
