Engaging Consumer Influencers:
Listening, Planning & Engaging
What is Influence?
Social influence occurs when an
individual's thoughts or actions are
affected by other people.
Social influence takes many forms
and can be seen in leadership,
persuasion, sales, and marketing.
Why does influence
matter now, more
than ever?

We were sorry to read about your experience and hope to be able to
resolve this issue and regain your confidence in us once again. In order
for us to do so, we’ll need more information from you to access your
account and remedy the situation. Please call Select Comfort directly at
1-800-787-5230 and ask to speak with AJ Stewart.
I will not recommend Sleep Number to anyone again (and I have done so in the
past) and if it comes up in the conversation. I post on Epinions and Craigslist
and intend to mention this in my posts and on my Blog. Instead of using a little
common sense, looking at longtime customer satisfaction, you have lost this
customer for life.
Two days after my diatribe about the Sleep Number bed appeared on this screen,
I was apologized to and told to call a number and ask for a particular person.
When I called I got a nice young lady named Amanda who asked what the
problem was and then the poor dear had to endure my ire while I detailed the
trouble. She listened with patience and asked me to hold on to see what could
be done. About 2-4 minutes later she comes on and says “we’ll be taking that
charge off your Amex”. I rescind my cessation of possible future purchases of
their product. The beds are as good as they advertise.

engagement,
• Participates consistently to maintain a timely conversation,

AMPLIFYING THE QUAKER LIVING PROOF BLOGGER WEEKEND
One weekend. 16 bloggers. Getting smart on Oatmeal! In November 2008, Quaker hosted 16 of
the top health and wellness bloggers to begin a dialogue about heart health and Quaker
products. Attendees were provided WiFi and a registered Twitter hashtag to use with their
coverage. As a result, participants posted a total of 139 times on their blogs, Twitter, Flickr and
YouTube accounts – generating an estimated reach of 6.6 unique monthly visitors (UMVs), more
than 3,000 blog comments, and 705 click-throughs to a product.
