The issue at hand is not the fact that the company was virtually unknown. There were far more important issues that needed to be dealt with first. Seek out communities that address the needs that your company also addresses. Let the community know who you are. Find out where they are advertising their products.

After all, not all of the 1,200 customers had scammed the company (and if that tip to Consumerist wasn’t anonymous, I think Sprint would have had some legal issues to deal with).

Social media, quite simply, relates to the usage of content created by easily accessible publishing technologies (social media sites such as Facebook or Twitter, photo publishing sites such as Flickr, video sites like YouTube and Vimeo) that is generated by the hundreds of millions of consumers utilizing these technologies.

To take two examples: people complain about an issue to an important newspaper prompting them to push the issue into the mainstream, or if a TV station covers an event, that becomes an important topic. Not just being talked about but be an active voice in the community. In a sense, they can become part of the community.

However, it’s been a long-standing issue that Digg has not acknowledged its users to satisfaction. Google is undoubtedly huge and they could simply shrug their members off like Digg does to its much smaller userbase, but instead they engage the community and that’s why Google is such a positive brand.

As a top Digg submitter, it worked like this: at first, people noticed my heavy community involvement and my participation , and consequently, my submitted stories easily front-paged. The community had to react. There’s no real community in Digg. Most other sites you belong to probably have a bigger sense of community.

Don’t shy away from giving your community the information needed to find you elsewhere both online and offline. Let it be posted on every social platform of choice and then watch as it seeds through other communities (which is likely to happen and shows that your marketing is viral).
