Active Listening. Description
Active Listening. Active listening, a term coined by ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, implies integrating what is being talked about outside of your organization with the processes inside your organization that are driving those conversations. In other words, it means listening intently enough that you actually understand not only what is being said, but how and why it came about, and formulating at least a basic idea as to what you will do next because of it. The implication here is deeper than what social media marketing would typically consider: The ensuing analysis and response will more often than not involve the entire organization, or the better part of it. Consider the case of Freshbooks, a small business billing and time tracking service. Freshbooks makes a practice of paying attention to its customers, including what they are saying on Twitter. One post in particular caught their attention: Freshbooks customer ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ had been stood up on a date. Freshbooks’ response, shown in Figure 8.2, taken from social media pro ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇’▇▇▇▇▇’▇ series on using Twitter in business, got right to the point: “We would never stand you up.” But then they did one better: ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ is a Freshbooks customer, so Freshbooks sent ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ fresh fl owers. The result is near-legend status on the Web. Google it.
