Very curious to see what you guys are all about.
Being a good listener is a good trait to have.

Really enjoyed what I saw of the webinar (I got called away into another meeting). Is the presentation/outline gonna be posted anywhere public?
Here are some notes I took:
LISTENING AND ENGAGEMENT
-look for complaints about your competitor – for options for you to shine, or fill gaps
-leveraging the crowd for expectations of product/service/price
-INFLUENCERS drive the actions that you want (not necessarily their reach)
-CRISIS -leverage indicators so a company doesnt have to react, spot a crisis before it starts
-ROI -the conversations that are providing the most activity for you, path of conversation (and how to reproduce if successful)
-THE AUDIT -is our marketing sticking, or how is it adapting?
-align yourself with areas of talk that you want to be associated with
-participate and respond to conversations in your community (as well as competitors)
-eitiquitte – thank them for their comments, apologize for problems “i’m sorry”
