26. “ We learned last February the value of a certain amount of
transparency when we posted a video of our founding
CEO on YouTube to address customers affected by the ice
storm that swept through the Northeast.
Our Twitter account is much the same thing; making
ourselves available in an environment where are
customers already live -again not focused on marketing -
but real interaction: less billboard - more information
booth.
We track Twitter mentions of our brand through various
services from the internal “track” function on Twitter to
external tools like tweetscan.com or quotably.com that
“
are freely available to all users. Many allow near immediate
notification of mentions.
