Sprint's Social Story: Customer Care

So I've been off the blog posting grid for awhile...I started with H&R Block in mid-January. My first tax season consumed most of my time and if I wasn't thinking work, I was busy with my family. I'm betting that next year you won't hear from me much from January-April either. Now that it's post April 15th, I have time to dust off my home laptop and share again.

I left off talking about Kansas City's IABC's Business Communicator's Summit. Another social media shining star that I was lucky enough to present with, Jason Gretzen (@jginkc), leads Sprint's social media efforts. In his presentation, Jason shared his team's 2009 focus on: 1) Executive buy-in; 2) Meeting customers where they are online through Twitter (@sprintcare), Facebook, etc.; and, 3) Building internal brand advocates to help share the Sprint story everywhere.

Happy Birthday, big sis!

You would have turned 48 today. You passed away too suddenly last November here in St. Louis.

Happy, happy Birthday, Annette. It's so very odd to be in St. Louis without you. I took in a Cards game for ya - yep, the stadium does rock. Had one to many beers at the game for ya as well ;->. Miss ya, hon!
