Customer Sentiment … "People talk about it being bland and having a more corporate feel," Spier said. "But the other thing I found interesting was the number of people expressing nostalgia for the old label, saying it's classic or classy, or had an old-school feel to it.1" 1 "Gap's new logo stirs outrage from customers," San Francisco Chronicle, 08 October 2010, online.

  26. Social Media Reputation Dashboard

  27. No one department “owns” the customer ... • Most Social Media / Networking Tools are geared / focused on the CMO and Marketing Department, but ... • Marketing needs to be involved, this is a channel to Inform and Entertain about your Products and Services • Sales also needs to be involved, they’re the best to seek out “commercial intent” as well as potential leads, etc. • Contact Center / Customer Service as well as they are TRAINED to deal with Customer Issues/Inquiries in both good and bad situations. • Others??? – Corporations must avail themselves!

  28. Not just Monitor – ACTION! • Most tools were built on the concept of Monitor and React ... CREDboard is built for ACTION: • Can Start/Update a Conversation/Status online • Can watch for trends and Alerts and activate MULTIPLE responders (SMS, Tweets, Email, CTI events, etc.) • Can “spawn” events in any of the above media-types to proactively engage customers • ... And, of course, we can REACT too! ;)
