Relationships can be messy
Takeaways
1. People don’t buy from companies. They buy from people. Behave and speak in human terms (not authentic but real, not transparent but open).
2. Your brand is only as strong as the feeling it creates in people.
3. There is a fine line between connecting emotionally and being manipulative. Don’t cross it. Have reverence for what you are doing.
Takeaways
4. You don’t control what happens when you
open yourself up online, but if you have earned respect, your friends will defend you when things get messy.5. Should we engage is not the right question.
Only ask where and how.
