When Social Media is Mean

Why must we forget all Marketing Principles and our Brand Voice when it comes to Social Media? 


My lady was stuck at an airport during a snow storm on her way home last December with minimum information.  I quickly turned to twitter to find out more; what I found was a picture of the plane she was supposed to be in, snowed in at the tarmac.  She had been at the airport for over 8 hours by that point.  I wanted information on how many planes where landing/taking off, etc. as the airport's flight status web page was not being updated.  


Turns out, sometimes too much information is not necessarily a good thing when it comes to social media, you never know who might be watching.  


Full screen caps from twitter at the bottom--her plane actually took off about 4 hours after the time mentioned below:

    After a background change, its temper worth will reset to a random adverse worth, normally between -1 and -15. Smeargle will pop up thought balloons depending on its temper worth after each spin, unless its temper worth is 0. As gamers use the slot machine, a Smeargle depicted on the highest display and seen painting can change the background of the highest display's monitor, and any change in background modifications slot results. A green background signals regular play, a purple background signals that it is simpler to obtain a 7 or Poké Ball, and a blue background signals that it is simpler to 안전한 카지노사이트 obtain a Pikachu or Marill. Only the Japanese version of Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver has slot machines; within the Korean and Western releases, the Game Corner hosts a recreation known as Voltorb Flip as a substitute. Mandalay Bay provides all your favorite desk games, together with blackjack, craps and roulette.

Social Media + Hospitality

A recent study by The Center for Hospitality Research at Cornell University constitutes one of the first pieces of empirical research on the effect social media has on hotel purchasing decisions by different market segments. The report titled How Travelers use Online and Social Media Channels to Make Hotel-choice Decisions   takes a snapshot of the rapidly changing field of how consumers gather information and make their decisions regarding travel purchases, based on responses of 2,830 recent travelers.   This report is particularly helpful in that it gathered findings based on the guest's market segment and reports how a channels importance varies according to the stage in the decision process.   "Business travelers often use the hotel recommended by their company, although many of them use search engines or online travel agents for their hotel search.

United Airlines' loyalty program worth $22B

United Airlines  values its loyalty program at $22B, Skift reports.  Opening the secret box to the industry's most valuable assets... its loyalty member audience and point currency. As the travel landscape changes, companies will have to look at ways to leverage their loyalty program members as an addressable audience in new ways without eroding trust. Not since  Air Canada   sold (and then bought back) its loyalty program, have we had such a public view of the revenue-generating power of loyalty. United's program generated 12% of the airline's total revenue in 2019, you bet that number will be much higher in 2020, and they will be looking for ways to continue to grow that number. Important to note that hotel companies have turned to their loyalty programs as for financing as well, by pre-selling points to their credit card partners.  Both Hilton and Marriott have presold close to $1B dollars each.  Will we start valuing travel companies by the size of their loyalty program
