Every problem is an opportunity in Reputation management

January 27, 2011

Social media plays an important role in protecting your brand image and ensuring your reputation. It is a trusted feedback mechanism as well to monitor your good will and customer loyalty. On a closer look, you can see countless examples in the web where small customer complaints have snowballed into major PR nightmares for the companies involved, mostly because the companies failed to take note of the customer grievance and the timely redressal of the problems. People express their anguish and dissatisfaction on the quality of services and products of companies in the form of hard hitting blogs, articles and you tube video clippings that will grab the attention of other users, who take it forward to make it a hot topic in the cyberspace.

However, these complaints could be a golden opportunity for companies to prove their mettle as well. Angry customers post quick notes on social sites like twitter and FaceBook in the hope of getting their problem solved. The companies can turn the tide in their favour by lending an ear to their complaint. A quick acknowledgement and a remedial action by the company is all it needs to bring back a previously unsatisfied customer back to its fold. Once the satisfied user start posting positive messages on his experience, it will trigger a chain reaction in the Social media, which will be an effective form of advertisement for any business and the most useful form of reputation management.

Reputation Management with Social Media

January 13, 2011

Reputation Management whilst dealing with social media is something that needs to be taken seriously and needs a serious thinking. Social media for many readers may not be a term that is not familiar with.
Social media in a wider sense can be defined as an internet based information which its existence and success depends on user participation and user generated content on the social environment (mainly blogs, forums, wikis, twitter, Facebook etc).
It is platforms where discussions take place always give your business publicity whether it is good or bad.
In the case of individual reputation it is the same if you are an expert in any particular field (others might discuss about you or your idea/work). However it is mostly about your actions and digital foot print that you leave on social media. These are your status updates, videos, photos you upload on social sites, and comments that you leave behind. Employers these days search the internet for your digital footprint, if they find anything unprofessional (photos, videos, comments) then chances are, they will lose interest in you. You never know the opportunities that tomorrow might present to you, always be ready for it.

Recently Facebook have changed their privacy policy allowing Google to index everything about your profile. To add to your surprise Google has also started integrating real time results from twitter, and many other social networking sites. This also means that others can view your Facebook profile even if they are not friends with you, so be advised to configure your privacy settings, and think about what you post on your profile.

To avoid all these circumstances you need to do…
1. Scanning on social media and internet.
2. Planning – determining the type of social media you are going to use for which purpose
3. Consistency – allocating more than one individual who are passionate about social media that look after your marketing campaign.
4. Do not respond automatically, and emotionally, when dealing with emergency negative media/image about your brand or you, as an individual’s visitors will come and see your anger.

The Role of Public Relation as Reputation Management!

January 6, 2011

The role of the corporate communications professional (or PR) is rapidly changing, responding to the sea changes all around us. The rise of consumer-generated social media, globalization, and the incredible personalization of information technology, greater expectations on corporations for transparency and social responsibility, and increasingly inter-connected stakeholder groups including often-adversarial activists all includes in this change.

Corporate and agency public relations professionals must do more than merely adapt to these sweeping changes in the communications dynamic. Corporations need their PR professionals to move beyond helping them communicate to stakeholders (the traditional role of corporate mouthpiece). They need guidance on how to engage in fluid conversations which means listening as well as talking, respectfully understanding the new rules of engagement. The companies need their PR professionals to be an important input into the business, to participate “at the table”, when business decisions are made rather than serving only as a mop-up crew called in to clean up a messy situation. Participation at the table requires PR professionals to understand the business thoroughly to be respected by the company’s operations as a full partner in making decisions that may affect the company’s reputation and the value of its brands.

This evolution beyond passive corporate communicator (PR Professional) to active reputation manager elevates the value and importance of Public Relation or other words Reputation Management!
