Title: Right Now
Post by: bryan_luckyoliver on June 27, 2007, 19:34
Howdy Gang.  We've just made communication an even bigger priority...ehemm...especially after some of the latest industry releases...we decided to put up a twitter feed on our blog.

You'll now have real time feedback from us. Pretty cool!

Not sure it's a first for the industry, but we're interested in leading the charge to make communication with artists a top priority.

so this may be my first sign that I'm old (err well, older than I was  ;) ) ... I'm truely not getting the purpose...

what's the deal with twitter?  It looks like a blog.  What am I missing?  Thanks for replying - it's just like the "now" version of helping a little old lady across the street :)

Theresa- Purpose?  I kinda always wondered the purpose until we put it up. :)

Essentially twitter allows anyone on the team to throw up short messages.  I guess you could consider it a blog, but the cool thing is that you can send messages from a phone, IM, or the web. The posts aren't really full ideas.

The point?  It doesn't take too much time for us to jot down a few things during the day...so it gives you guys a sense of LO.

Sounds to me like your image suppliers are already content with the site - maybe you should implement this sort of service/feature to attract/help buyers.

Sharply, you have a good point.

Actually I've run the numbers based on our blog and found that buyers sign up significantly more after spending time on our blog.  It's one of the compliments we get from buyers on the phone.

Buyers make judgments based on the brand, the product, and company.  It's just another small piece of the puzzle.  In any event, traffic to the page increased 2.5x :)
