Land mines and gold mines - an introduction to a few concepts from this free ebook
The power of the Internet can turn even your “least important” customer into a public relations land mine.
Consider the example of Tom Farmer and Shane Atcheson. They were denied “guaranteed” hotel rooms at 2 AM. They formatted their complaint to the hotel as a bitter (but humorous) powerpoint presentation and sent copies to a couple of friends online, who then sent it along to a couple of their friends, and on and on it spread. Within weeks the hotel had a public relations fiasco on its hands.
….Or gold mine. Consider the example of online shoe merchant Zappos.
They provided special help to a woman who couldn’t handle their return shipping procedures in the immediate aftermath of her mother’s death; the good word spread quickly throughout the blogosphere.
