3 Ways to Manage Risk in Social Environments

By Sam Fiorella | Social Enterprise, Social Media, Social Risk Management | Comments are Closed | 14 November, 2012 | 0

Last week I argued that social media is creating bad customers. The post was designed to open people’s minds to the reality that social media channels create high degrees of risk for brands based on a number of factors. It detailed how social media enables poor customer behavior as easily as it enables good customerRead more

Competing With Your Employee for Consumer Loyalty

By Sam Fiorella | Loyalty Marketing, Sensei Perspective | Comments are Closed | 22 June, 2012 | 0

This week I’ve been exploring the conflict between employee and corporate brands here on Sensei Blogs and during our weekly Twitter debate. The discussion has taken many twists and turns touching on HR policies, corporate risk, brand strategies and even customer service; however, during this week’s #bizforum chat there was one issue that really capturedRead more

Should Corporations Fire Personal Brands?

By Sam Fiorella | Social Enterprise | Comments are Closed | 18 June, 2012 | 0

Earlier this week I posted When Personal and Corporate Brands Collide, in which I outlined a case study of corporate egotism rearing its ugly head in the face of an employee’s personal brand and public recognition. The “personal brand” phenomenon is quickly becoming problematic for c-suite executives, marketing, PR and human resource departments alike.  NeitherRead more

When Personal and Corporate Brands Collide

By Sam Fiorella | Sensei Perspective | Comments are Closed | 17 June, 2012 | 0

This past week I was introduced to another case of personal branding colliding with corporate egotism; an increasingly common fender-bender in our over-connected world where the line between personal and corporate personas are becoming thinner and thinner. Last week Dave Reynolds, an extremely popular DJ at 99.7 The River in Campbell River, British Columbia (aRead more

The Uncomfortable Age of Transparency

By Sam Fiorella | Social Enterprise | Comments are Closed | 28 May, 2012 | 0

Gone are the days of the stand-alone customer loyalty card (or just plain loyalty for that matter)  – we’re now seeing a range of new data, social media feeds and smart phones that are changing the way organisations engage with their clients.

The 7 Deadly Sins of Market Leaders.

I responded to the recent news of the resignation of RIM’s Jim Balsillie and Mike Lazaridis with mixed emotions. As a Blackberry user and fan, it signals a possible change in direction to what I saw as an arrogant disregard for my patronage and loyalty.

Employee Brand Fumbles

By Sam Fiorella | Social Enterprise | Comments are Closed | 12 August, 2011 | 0

I’ve been exploring corporate risk in employee social media engagement lately and the concept of “employee brand fumbles” keeps popping into in my head.  Without the proper training and support, an innocently-intentioned Tweet or Facebook status update by an employee can cause brand or financial damage to the corporation. I’m reminded of a friend (aRead more

The evolution of marketing and communications, driven by the popularity of social media has placed a lot of attention on the customer as a valuable business asset.
