Fast Tracking JUNOS Users 
Juniper Networks technology runs the worlds most demanding global networks and JUNOS Software is at the heart of these solutions. In 2009, Juniper put its entire online community presence to the test in one of its biggest challenges yet: helping 14,000 new users get certified on JUNOS Software.
Leveraging its historical strength in online support with the J-Net Community, Juniper focused on first expanding its presence into social networks and educating its employees and partners in 2009 resulting in a vastly improved company framework for spreading messages.
This success laid the groundwork for completely integrated campaign in July 2009 to promote the Juniper Networks Fast Track Program and a special 100%-offer for JUNOS certification exams, which included:
Announcing the program on an official Twitter feed and retweeting
Announcing to the J-Net community, Juniper Facebook page, and related groups on LinkedIn
Creating a new JUNOS playlist on the Juniper YouTube channel
Launching directed advertising on Facebook and LinkedIn
Outreach to the blog community and social bookmarking
With online communities as the centerpiece of this approach, Juniper has now reached an unprecedented number of JUNOS users about the Fast Track certification program.
These community engagements helped spread Juniper Networks message about JUNOS certifications and yielded significant increases in awareness of the Fast Track certification program and traffic to the new Fast Track portal where users begin the JUNOS certification process.
Visitors to the new Fast Track portal ramped from zero to 20,000+ per week since launch
Facebook delivered 7.5M ad impressions with a CTR of .03%
Nearly 800 visits to the Fast Track site directly from one blog post
As another direct result, Junipers online communities have seen continued growth in 2009, with JUNOS users being one of the strongest and most active groups:
J-Net community: nearly 8,000 registered users up from 4,000 in 2008
Twitter: over 1,000 followers on the official feed since launching in February 2009
Facebook: over 1,200 fans since launching on April 2009
YouTube channel: nearly 7000 channel views since 2008
LinkedIn JUNOS Professionals: over 1,300 members
The ultimate result: JUNOS certifications earned have increased from approximately 150 per week to more than 1,000 per week by the end of August, a 560% increase. With these dramatic increases, Juniper is well on track to achieve its 2009 business goal of welcoming 14,000 new user to the JUNOS certified family.
