People Buy from People
We live in a world where it is no longer B2C or B2B but P2P – People to People. Or as I like to say P2D 2 D2P or People to Device to People because personal connections are first made online through our chosen device. This impacts how much of the message is read, the visual impact of the graphics, and the amount of text that is needed to convey the message.
Unfiltered Multiway Communication
The digital age has moved us from one way communication to multiway communication without filters – no middlemen. Immediate response means there is no time for a committee or editor to analyze the content. There is no TV station or radio personality making sure you are responding correctly. There is you (and yours) interacting directly with the customers.
Soft skills trump …
Social Media is more about psychology than technology. “The absolute most important thing in communication is to hear what is being said” Peter Drucker. Social media communication is fast, fragmented, and impulsive. Engaging with people is also fleeting and hasty. The people who are charged with social media – we recommend it includes your entire company – must have an understanding of the strategy, a knowledge of the objectives, an ability to empathize and a dedication to the effort. Usually it works best when an expert leads the charge and others follow.
