yea, that's the challenge here…the capabilities are changing pretty quickly. by the time you determine a strategy and implement it, it's time to refine that strategy! it's like the days of upgrading your computer every 6 months…

This is helpful for me right now. We are re-evaluating and determining some best-practices for relation to our customers daily,at conferences, and long-term.

Now that you mention it, I definitely see the same attitude towards social media as I did with email when it first came out.

I also do encounter the same situations you referenced. There is a large disconnect in most people's minds between the value of face-to-face (or over-the-phone) interaction and online communication (i.e. blogs, Twitter, Facebook).

That really gives an advantage to the people who are willing to try out social media and get started now.

Thanks for the great info.

it's really hard to get people to think about building relationships in social media, even when they understand building relationships with wine & dine…is this me or do you face the same thing?

do you remember when people first started to use email and all the complaints about it on how they didn't have time to sit there and write emails? it's the same thing all over again!

they forget about hammertime…lol

Great thoughts on this. I thing you are so right. Really the biggest investment is your time building solid relationships by providing the aforementioned investment pieces. The best part is the returns you get over the long-term.

Oh, and loved the MC Hammer flow chart.
