Comment on Is Online Always Better? by Jeff Stolarcyk

Ruth, you have a lot of great points. I’m more than willing to talk on the phone if they catch me at a good time, but as soon as they stop ‘being human’ - by reading off a script or giving convoluted answers to basic questions, I start to bristle and end the call. Which is a point I made in a comment over on Josh’s blog - that the human contact was handled badly and that’s the root of the problem, not the automated call in and of itself.

Whether social media is handled by PR or by Marketing (and ideally, I think it should maybe be a collaborative effort), it’s always important to engage the audience in the right way - that’s a consistent message of mine in my blog posts and in everything I write for eBiz Insider.

Thanks for reading!

This is why social media also belongs in the domain of public relations, where practitioners have long accepted that you have to communicate with people in the way they want to be communicated with. That now means social media, email, brochures, direct mail, telemarketing, open houses, roundtables, public meetings.

We all have our personal preferences, regardless of our demographic. I, for instance, am happy to read any amount of direct mail or email from my suppliers and service providers. Woe betide them if they call me on a Saturday afternoon though - and if they have the temerity to call me during business hours, they get a very pert, “Put me on your corporate do not call list immediately or I’ll find another supplier.”

Hi Shannon, thanks for the link love. There seems to be a consensus that the community makes the rules in the world of social media. If that’s the case, then social media practitioners need to make sure they are actually a part of that community before they go on a witch hunt. Just my opinion. Happy holidays!
