“Digital channels are empowering buyers to drive the conversation,
and as they engage and interact with a brand,
they start to connect to it.
The peer to peer nature of social media allows
buyers to share information and opinions
with each other – companies need to make
sure they are there to participate in the
conversation, but not monopolize it.”
