]]> Comment on Facebook is a Waste of Time for 99.9% of Businesses by Dan http://askthemanager.com/2011/06/facebook-is-a-waste-of-time-for-99-9-percent-of-businesses/#comment-146086 Dan Sun, 12 Feb 2012 21:27:13 +0000 http://askthemanager.com/?p=255#comment-146086 Right on! I'm with you on this subject my friend. It's like why would I want to be friends with my Bank or Insurance company? What does either of us get out of it? They spam me w/offers & I spam my friends with the same offers? Then people get mad at me & un-friend me. Then I un-friend the companies who spammed me. Hello square 1! I think Google Places/Yahoo/Bing is definitely true. I think getting good @ what you do & creating partnerships/joint ventures will go a 1,000,000 times farther than facebook or twitter. E-mail marketing still works like clockwork, & it's secure. It doesn't work for those who have crappy products/services, & for those that spam you as soon as you sign up. Right on!

]]> Comment on What Every Business Can Learn from the Social Media Efforts of @Delta by JohnH_MEL http://askthemanager.com/2012/01/what-every-business-can-learn-from-the-social-media-efforts-of-delta/#comment-144075 JohnH_MEL Tue, 31 Jan 2012 07:42:34 +0000 http://askthemanager.com/?p=329#comment-144075 Great experience, even if you didn't get your decaf. I flew Delta last summer for the first time & was very impressed with their service. Their Twitter team changed my flight without penalty because I was worried about a possible storm in the Ft Myers area, and missing my connections to Sydney in ATL & LAX. The Australian carriers could learn a lot about customer service from Delta. Great experience, even if you didn’t get your decaf.
