Chatting with friends has long been one of my favorite activities — and meeting new friends to chat with increases the joy.
Is it any wonder, then, that Social Media is my Passion?
My online activities in the past year have introduced me to so many wonderful new people from whom I’ve probably learned more than spending the same amount of time in classrooms and libraries.
Here’s today’s story:
1) My email box contained a blog post entitled ” . . . because I’m the customer” — written by Australian blogger & social media enthusiast Sharon Clews.
2) I met Sharon online after following a link on my Twitter stream, and reading one of her first posts.
3) We connected on LinkedIn and have chatted about our mutual passion: Spreading the Word about the Wealth of Opportunities possible with Social Media.
4) We now read and comment on each other’s blog posts — and I believe we add value to each other by sharing insights and suggestions.
5) I read her latest post with great interest BECAUSE it was so true and so relevant:
“I have always failed to understand why one of the most basic abilities as people; human interaction, is so difficult for some people.”
“The most amazing thing to me about customer service is that is free! . . . It is one of the truisms of my life. It costs me no more to smile or nod or ask someone if they need help.”
“Any retail experience is not just about what things cost. I am saddened that in a world of over consumerism more people don’t vote with their feet. That we mostly still search for the bargain of a lifetime and then moan about the service we get whilst doing it.”
Here’s the REST OF THE STORY:
