There was a time where a customer had to go into a store to complain. This then evolved into phoning customer services to resolve a query; then came the age of email – the only medium where, in most instances, the query is not time sensitive.
The explosion of social media has opened communication channels and customers expect the fastest response when contacting a brand on Facebook and Twitter.
On the whole, brands have accepted that once they open social channels it is imperative that they continue to monitor and engage with customers. Brands simply can’t afford to have hundreds of thousands of people viewing any negative review left by an unhappy customer.

"A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes," as Mark Twain said, but he did not envisage social media: "halfway" is understating it. A lie – or at least a bad impression – can get fully around the world, in an instant.
That is the nightmare scenario for companies and organisations in the social media age.

The buzz of promoting your day-to-day business activities on Snapchat may now be nothing more than a quiet hum — but Instagram stories (an Instagram feature which was brazenly stolen from Snapchat) is gaining traction by the day.

The world has come a far way! A lot of it is thanks to the excessive growth of the term internet and technology. The internet might be able to survive without businesses using the platform to buy, sell, and market their products and services, but we can vouch for the fact that there aren’t many businesses today that could survive if the internet were to shut down today!
A study suggests that more than 95% Americans shop at least once a year online. With such staggering numbers luring companies to set up shop online, there isn’t much to understand about why it is necessary for you to set up a business that works online. But the bigger question, however, is, How to manage a business online? We’d say that there are multiple facets attached to it. Most importantly today is the power of Social Media.

As the saying goes, “For every customer who bothers to complain, 20 other customers remain silent.” Unless the experience is really bad, customers usually don’t bother to share feedback about an experience that didn’t meet their expectations. Instead, they decide never to do business with the service provider again. That’s a high price to pay for lost feedback.
The lost customer is not the only casualty. Studies have shown that each dissatisfied customer typically shares the unsatisfactory experience with 8 to 10 (sometimes even 20) others. With the growing use of social media, it’s not uncommon for negative feedback to go viral and hurt the credibility of a brand.

According to a survey by Statista, nearly 2.62 billion people have active social media accounts worldwide today. The high tech industry has long understood that targeted ads and social media campaigns are powerful tools for driving brand awareness and sales. However, despite the fact that social media drives more traffic to a website than organic search, conversion rates are still extremely low. In fact, according to AdWeek, social media traffic has an average conversion rate of 0.71 percent, with organic search converting at 1.95 percent and email at 3.19 percent.
Some high tech companies are very successful in creating communities and developing a strong following on their social media accounts and this is definitely the first step to increasing conversion. But how do you use these communities to build customer loyalty, provide a better customer experience and increase sales conversion rates?
