Markets are conversations

Conversations

This is NOT your market

This is your market

So treat them likehumans

They’re alreadytalking about you

And it’s not just me“Customer service fail... I’ve also come back to the office moaning about the optometrist to anyone who’ll listen (not necessarily because they want to) and my 2,500 Twitter followers. And if they continue to not give me my prescription, I will name and shame them. Watch this space.”

Trust

Do you completely trust your people?

What happenswhen you trust

“Roger had followed up for me with other iiNet staff and had answers on both the whereabouts of my hardware and the status of my account.”

Not his job!

Do you trust

your customers?

Openness

What are you hiding?

Failure goes global

It’s still not just me

“I say we have to hold these companies accountable for their crap customer service. It shouldn’t matter if they’re talking to a writer for one of the biggest blogs in the world or anyone else. Expedia routinely fails in customer service, but they get away with it because most of the time people don’t have this type of platform to expose these stories.”

Be a part of the conversation rather than

the subject

Free your people

C + T + O = :DConversation Trust Openness Delight
