Social
Customer Service: Best practices for listening, engaging and supporting
customers in social media
April
12th, 1:00 - 2:30pm ET
Does your company use social media to engage customers and monitor discussions
about your products/services? If not, why not?
In this special web event, I will show you exactly how to find and
respond to complaints about your brand that are posted on Twitter. And I’ll
show you how to listen to, engage and support your customers on the world’s
fastest growing social network.
I
like to share the story about a Comcast customer who experienced an outage
with her high-speed Internet and phone service. She says it took at least
an hour and a half to get through to a live person at Comcast and that person
told her it would be 3 days before a technician could come out. Frustrated,
the customer logged on to Twitter from her Blackberry and typed "Damn Internet down in my house. Arrrrrgh. Can't fix until Thursday.
Shoot me."
A Comcast “Digital Detective” saw the posting, tracked the customer
down, and had the customer’s Internet and phone back up by 5pm that day. The
customer was blown away when Comcast contacted her after discovering her
“Tweet” and was equally WOWed with the speed of response. This astonishing
problem detection and resolution has generated a ton of priceless
word-of-mouth advertising for Comcast.
If you’re not WOWing customers in this way on a regular basis, you need

BUT...Twitter is not just about WOWing your customers...it's a golden opportunity to divert a crisis.
The advertising executives at Motrin thought it was a good idea. A hip ad featuring a 20-something voice-over and simple graphics.
Problem is, moms didn’t like the ad. The ad was released on the Motrin website on a Saturday morning. By Saturday evening Motrin was the top trending topic on Twitter, with thousands of mothers tweeting their reactions to the ad. Bloggers called for a boycott. Online moms were outraged by the suggestion that they carry their babies to be “fashionable.” In response to Twitter and blogger reaction, Motrin pulled the ad on Monday, just two days after launch.
The quick demise of the campaign demonstrates the power of consumers and social media. Today’s consumer is vocal and Internet savvy. When companies offend, outrage or fail to deliver to these powerful consumers, there can be devastating implications for businesses – from a loss of credibility with consumers, to serious market damage to lost customers.
Motrin’s response to the blog and Twitter mom outrage was swift and smart. They listened to the online conversations, took them seriously and pulled the online ad nearly immediately. Companies will be wise to learn from Motrin’s handling of the “Wear Your Baby” campaign and to be more proactive about listening to online conversations about their brands.
