#1. Listen and Respond. To Everyone
“Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it.”
-Charles Swindoll

Responsiveness is No Longer Optional.
How should you deal with a negative comment?
• Delete it?NO! Deleting tells your customer “I don’t care.”
• Ignore it? NO! No response is a response.

Why Pay to Play?
“Facebook Reachageddon” means businesses now have to pay to play to get their content seen
Facebook Reachageddon= The End of Organic Reach. If you aren’t paying to boost your posts, only 1-2% of your fans
