•  They expect authenticity, transparency + instant information

•  Everyone has a soapbox of their own

•  They also have choices

•  Earned media, trusted sources + word of mouth far more important than ever before

Hi Jacob, I work in communications at FedEx Office (formerly FedEx Kinko’s) and your video<http://www.jmorganmarketing.com/i-dont-make-the-rules-i-just-work-here/> got our attention. First of all, thanks for coming to our store in the first place for your business cards. I’m sorry about the situation you encountered. You were absolutely correct that your experience did not live up to the brand of FedEx Office.

In the video, you made some very good points in a clear and genuine manner. We’d like to use your video internally when we train our team members on topics like customer experience, living the brand, etc. We want them to hear the voice of the customer directly, and your video would be helpful in that regard. Would you be OK with us showing it to our trainees? And again, I’m sorry about the experience you had. We’re working hard at FedEx Office to make improvements, and issues like you raised (accessing files in email, employees living the brand) are among the many things we are working on. I hope you’ll give us another try. Thanks, Jenny Jenny Robertson Sr. Manager, Marketplace Communications and Events FedEx Office 13155 Noel Road Dallas, TX 75240

Thanks for your response.  I'm glad you understood the situation and my frustration.  Yes, you have my permission to use the video to show your trainees (I hope you do), I think that's a great idea.  I just want you to know that the only reason I am going to continue to be a customer is because you sent this email.  I just put up another video based on the email you sent me and the fantastic job you did, http://www.jmorganmarketing.com/fedex-is-listening-to-the-conversation/ I also want to find out more about what fedex is doing in the social media space, are you currently working with anyone on strategies?  Perhaps I can even interview you and put that up on my site, I'm sure a lot of people would be interested in hearing from you. Please let me know, Jacob
