Social Media Monitoring Tools<\/strong><\/h4>\n

You no longer have salespeople knocking on your door and rousing you from your sleepy stupor in order to extol the virtues of their products. Neither do you have the pretentious counter girl looking down her nose each time you ask a question. Rather, you have a new turf in which the customer is the undisputed king and the one who\u2019s calling all the shots. If he feels your brand is pretentious or too intrusive, you may as well have something to worry about.<\/p>\n

The customer today knows exactly what your brand proposition is, much before you can even open your mouth to speak. With a ready finger, he knows your company\u2019s net worth, your newest CEO and the latest controversy embroiling your brand.
