[IMPORTANT] LinkedIn has updated their privacy conditions. What you need to know.

admin — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 03:59:51 +0000

We received this from one of our contacts on LinkedIn.com and thought you might want to be aware so that your personal information isn’t shared without your consent.

Without attracting too much publicity, LinkedIn has updated their privacy conditions. Without any action from your side, LinkedIn is now permitted to use your name and picture in any of their advertisements.

Some simple actions to be considered:

1) In the top right corner of the screen. From the small pull down menu that appears, select “settings”
2) Then click “Account” on the left/bottom
3) In the column next to Account, select the option “Manage Social Advertising”
4) Finally un-check the box that reads “LinkedIn may use my name and photo in social advertising”
5) Save.

Why MailChimp gets it when it comes to Customer Service and “Listening”

admin — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 14:19:20 +0000

When you come across a truly unique and excellent display of custom service these days, it’s important to talk about and share your experience. It’s your way as a customer to ‘pay it forward’ – but more than that, it allows others to better understand that the brands of today do care, and most importantly, do listen.

Yesterday we learned that our email provider had temporarily suspended our account due to a possible threat that needed to be investigated via email with MailChimp‘s compliance department, which consisted of an email being sent to them to let them know we were aware of the problem, we were told they would investigate and get back to us with a solution and that is exactly what happened.

This morning before receiving the confirmation that our account has been re-instated, we contacted MailChimp Support via their “Chat” option – we were greeted my team member Mariam, who was absolutely delightful and more than helpful, non-robotic and most importantly had answers, not excuses, which always helps.

We were so pleased with our online customer service experience that we shared how we felt with Mariam to which she replied by thanking us profusely, but then said, “wait, would you like a free t-shirt?” – we kindly responded ABSOLUTELY!

Wow! It feels great when business is done this way and brands are more concerned about their clients then they are their bottom-line.

Let’s face it, if you customers and clients are taken care of first, your bottom-line will follow. Take notes friends.

Thanks again for being all kinds of awesome MailChimp! You deserve unlimited bananas for the rest of the year!
