Part of the -- keen attention to their comments at their feet back that's very difficult students -- manage that especially with the vast number.
The inquiries that are coming in or comments.
On any given day -- a have a hard time doing it myself just with what I get from people on.
FaceBook and what are -- so -- an official level -- You know makes these people are you making real complaints -- collect friends see that he -- that front -- and is visible to everyone in the whole world.

All the talk need to homes those retailers in the US and things haven't formally -- -- one of the really surprising thing is that Safeway -- one of the best.
Really responding to almost -- -- that resolving real questions or complaints the on the FaceBook page on the world will there -- -- -- would just ignoring every law.

Old -- if somebody were to get involved with your company -- going to be like dead how -- What's the percentage have you been doing some studies -- about how right you could increase yeah well the minister responds 100%.
Outside thanks hit exactly my -- Okay so when you sit down and go I'm over this for the company how quickly -- be able to implement.
A program like this if it if it's just good you'd think everybody would just do it because there's only an upside.
I was there and one of the most difficult things for companies instruction set up a social customer service team and resource it properly implement.
With some -- biggest customers they've gone from zero -- -- a freshman in two weeks.
I'm really trying to -- very simple reason people for your products are happy that.
Okay and that you guys are headquartered in London right so you vaccine up and branching out yourself to come into the add an American market -- -- -- that's.
Pretty profitable -- we got a -- oddities here -- need to respond a lot of Americans now it's like yeah yeah you think the -- and yeah it's good thing going on.
So and -- see here it says that that you guys across within thirty million customer service interactions on.
-- some media.

And his brilliant and hasn't 2.5.
Million per month that an unbelievable.
So organizations like -- I TV February University of Phoenix yeah.
Using this that software as a service yeah I mean it's a lot of our retailer's health -- television financial services.
And only setting up these big pages and then the selling directly to consumers and getting -- consistency -- Okay -- -- question so you know valid on your Twitter to get back in the days.
The customer was always liked him but I don't know -- I feel like that is still the enhancement social media hasn't made it.
More easy for customers to have an impact on these companies or at least components just we don't care what they say there's not -- point of not acting even.
-- so it's getting more powerful for customers you know I think for a long time and if -- a celebrity or you're a journalist he knew he was easy to ignore you -- -- cup final recourse and so you know you and they give you can respond soon.
You and really going to happen.
