Before deciding how best to launch an initiative, or give an existing program the boost it needs, there are some out there who simply want to know, what is employee advocacy? How does it work? What does it do? Essentially, employee advocacy is when a company’s employees begin using their own online social media channels to share news about their company and share their experiences. All of which increases positive brand awareness online. Not surprisingly, consumers are more likely to trust friends than corporations. A recommendation from a trusted acquaintance carries more authenticity, and thus more credibility. Employee advocacy is a way of helping employees to become thought leaders and brand ambassadors online, and share their enthusiasm for the brand with their peers. It creates awareness organically, in a way that consumers can embrace and trust. An Employee Advocacy strategy for a Changing World In today’s world, employees are more connected than ever, and it’s less and less via desktops. According to one study, the average adult spent over three hours a day on a mobile device. And 89% of mobile media time is spent on apps, the vast majority of which are social media related. But beyond the predominance of mobile social media and mobile devices, there are also recent factors that make employee advocacy more necessary than ever. Social media algorithms have been revised to put more emphasis on user generated content, and less on branded content. The rise of influencers means that a single tweet or post from the right consumer can have more benefit that an entire online advertising campaign. Trust online is hard to come by, but with employee advocacy, trust is built organically, by real human beings with authentic feelings about a brand. An Employee Advocacy Strategy to meet new Challenges Employee advocacy can be extremely effective. It can give companies and brands the power to build awareness and boost business by empowering the people who know the company best: its own employees. In fact, the numbers prove it.
