POLLWhat do you use to cultivate community?
• Google +• Facebook• Twitter• Linked Groups• External Tools like Jive, Lithium, Communispace or
others.
The key to community is LISTENING AND BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS
However, not a lot of relationship building is evident on Twitter- Top brands respond to 14% of inbound tweets*- 71% of all tweets get no response**
Why? Because Twitter is commonly used as a MEGAPHONE- Talk at and SPAM followers- Understaff social media management - Lack a cohesive social engagement strategy
Of course, there are exceptions: @WholeFoods, @Bestbuy & @Starbucks engage successfully
We built Nestivity to facilitate RELATIONSHIPS. We aim to make it easier to Manage, Spark and Amplify conversations on Twitter.
