6. THE BUSINESS OF
SOCIAL BUSINESS
To gain competitive advantage,
companies must focus on making
transformational shifts in how work is
accomplished.
Companies will succeed when they
embed social into their core business
processes and capabilities.

7. THE CROSS-CHANNEL
CONVERSATION
Companies can create unique customer experiences
by listening to and engaging customers. Failing to
communicate with customers in their preferred way
creates an engagement gap that is difficult to
overcome.

8. THE CROSS-CHANNEL
CONVERSATION
New tools and strategies are necessary for organizations
to fully understand and engage with customers across
all touchpoints. Marketing will continue to expand
beyond promotion to include customer experience
management and organizations will be required to use
social approaches to sales and service.
