Fans Writing on their Wall:&amp;nbsp; &lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(0, 0, 255);&quot;&gt;No, a complete disappointment.&amp;nbsp; GoDaddy needs to find a method to get their fans to interact on their page by either asking questions, concerns, or to say good/bad things about the organization and/or services.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
GoDaddy Constantly Writing on their Wall: &lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(0, 0, 255);&quot;&gt;Yes, GoDaddy is writing on their wall on a daily basis.&amp;nbsp; However, they&amp;rsquo;re not posting frequently &amp;ndash; average is 1-3 postings per day.&amp;nbsp; GoDaddy could increase its postings with the recommendations we provided above.&amp;nbsp; Nevertheless, they are doing a great job providing tips, education (truth about certain myths), updates on their services/company, company donations ($500k to Haiti), and about their employees.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Fans Responding to Postings: &lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(0, 0, 255);&quot;&gt;Very few.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Cars.com uses an email promo to persuade prospects to visit their site before purchasing a car.  Was it good or bad?</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial;&quot;&gt;Emails should be simple and to the point.&amp;nbsp; Right, marketers?&amp;nbsp; After all, this makes it easier for the receiver to view what you have to offer as the person skims through his/her inbox.&amp;nbsp; However, it&amp;rsquo;s not just about creating a simple email to state the facts and benefits&amp;hellip;.oh, no!&amp;nbsp; It&amp;rsquo;s also about substance &amp;ndash; ya know, back-up data/information to prove your claims!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cars.com sent a promotional email......... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>International Franchise Expo&#8217;s Print ad and Website</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial;&quot;&gt;When you attend a conferences or an expo, what type of people do you see at the event?&amp;nbsp; Most likely, you would see people of different races, gender, and ages.&amp;nbsp; Right?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since a conference or an expo gathers a diverse crowd, shouldn&amp;rsquo;t the marketing of this type of event represent the people who attend it?&amp;nbsp; We think so!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Constant Updates:&amp;nbsp; &lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(0, 0, 255);&quot;&gt;Yes, Safeway is doing a great job updating their Twitter page on a daily basis.&amp;nbsp; However, they only tweet once a day and mostly on saving tips and discounts.&amp;nbsp; Safeway does a great job using Twitter as a customer service tool, as well updates on customer concerns and how people can submit comments about a specific store, etc.&amp;nbsp; Nevertheless, Safeway needs to tweet more than once a day on other topics.&amp;nbsp; For example: more recipes (each week can be a theme), how to use the products they sell to save money/environment, how to pick the right food for their family, how to cook a meal within a budget, etc.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Religion organizations operate like a business - they have a yearly budget, operational expenses, customers (followers) they have to keep happy in order to persuade them to come back, attract new prospects (followers), and find ways on how to connect with their constant changing behavioral market.&amp;nbsp; Whoever thought religious organization have it easy&amp;hellip;.they&amp;rsquo;re wrong!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Fans Constantly Writing on their Wall:&amp;nbsp; &lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(0, 0, 255);&quot;&gt;Yes!&amp;nbsp; However, we were surprised to see several people bashing Microsoft on their Facebook page.&amp;nbsp; We&amp;rsquo;re happy that Microsoft has not removed those negative postings because it allows their page to be unbiased and gives everyone the opportunity to speak their mind about their products.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Microsoft Constantly Writing on their Wall: &lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(0, 0, 255);&quot;&gt;Yes, Microsoft constantly writes on their wall about their products &amp;ndash; new, free trials, and updates.&amp;nbsp; However, they lack creativity and don&amp;rsquo;t include topics that could encourage more interaction from their fans.&amp;nbsp; Topics that Microsoft could include &amp;ndash; what do you like best about Windows 7?&amp;nbsp; What do you think of the blah blah blah new feature?&amp;nbsp; Did you see what people are saying about our new product?&amp;nbsp; Tips on how to better use the Microsoft products.&amp;nbsp; Of course, there are more topics but these are just a couple of examples.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Disney is all about giving, but this time not with money!</title>

&lt;br /&gt;
Every year, companies throughout the world give money to charities as a way to give back to the community.&amp;nbsp; Some companies are very open about their contributions and others don&amp;rsquo;t care for the attention.&amp;nbsp; Heck, as long as companies give that&amp;rsquo;s all that matters.&amp;nbsp; However, giving back to the community doesn&amp;rsquo;t always involve money.&amp;nbsp; There are certainly other ways to give back and not only by you but also by your customers and prospects.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
