Social Media Marketing: A Good Voice

When it comes to Internet marketing, sometimes brands just can't get it right. Often even well-established brands (like Kenneth Cole) have a hard time streamlining their social media outreach in a way that's consistent across all platforms. A well-defined voice is critical in any digital marketing initiative, especially when it comes to e-commerce brands. Below are some examples of brands that have created a distinctive voice in their social communications:

Tory Burch: She is one of the few designers to speak on behalf of her brand on social networks, specifically, Twitter. She uses Twitter for off-the-cuff comments that are the most compelling … [and] for sharing personal experiences.


DKNY PR Girl: Gives real insight into not only the day-to-day workings at Donna Karan headquarters, but also into the PR business itself. Licht (SVP of Global Communications at Donna Karan) gives career advice and resume reviews at times via Tumblr. 



KateSpadeNY: Depicts the "Kate Spade woman" and her New York City agenda. @katespadeny fictitiously checks into hot spots like the MOMA and snaps Instagram photos of Central Park and the facade of the Plaza Hotel. 


Lucky Magazine: The result is a feed that balances traffic-driving links to luckymag.com with images and posts about window displays and where editors are shopping for deals.
