As far as I can see they are private for your eyes only. Which is the way it should be... in my opinion. Let me know what you think. I'd imagine that they are going to be growing rapidly.
On An Intimate Look Inside the Mind of a Social Media Consultant
Thank you and you are correct! While there are other ways to use social marketing I much prefer this method because not only does it make a difference but it also rallies the community around a cause that they are passionate about. Thank you for the response!
On Gen Y - Harnessing The Power of the Loyalty Generation
You certainly are entitled to your own opinion. Thank you for commenting Kevin!
On Gen Y - Harnessing The Power of the Loyalty Generation
Very true. I was looking for the study that talked about quality with Gen Y'ers. Its the Deloitte Automotive Survey detailing that Gen Y'ers look to the cockpit technology for the basis of quality in a new automobile. This is an exciting market and in my opinion all it takes is doing the right thing to earn their loyalty. As it relates to quality and social purpose that is.

Very true, social purpose is very important to Gen Y'ers. I wrote a post that I linked to in the post, about social purpose. You can check it out here. Thank you the comment!

Quality is more important to Gen Y'ers. You're right it is important to other generation as well but quality is more than the workmanship of the product it has a lot to with the quality of the features, of the "apps" of the smart phone so to speak. Gen Y'ers expect the constant advancement of technology but also expect there to be quality, even if it is a new product.
For instance you used to hear, "Never buy the first generation, wait until the next one comes out and they will have all the bugs fixed."
That's unacceptable to Gen Y'ers. Maybe I should have elaborated on that point more. Thank you for commenting and helping to further this conversation along.

Nice addition Ben, thank you for the comment. The culture of Gen Y is different than the generation before, it's in knowing that culture that will help business better connect with them. Thank you again!

That't why I call them the loyalty generation because they are more loyal than the generation before. That's why I feel that every business should do what they can to learn more about them, what makes them tick and then use that knowledge to engage them in such a way that they begin to identify themselves by what the business stands for. Thank you for commenting!

You're right, engagement is key. Real engagement. It's a precursor to brand ambassadorship. If a business wants a business that Gen Y'ers can indentity with then they must work to develop a community around their brand.
I'd love to hear what others have to say. Thank you for the comment G Powell!
