The “big six”
Storage Conversation
WHEN? Is the timing right?
Now!
• Low risk in early pilot projects • Secure brand before gold rush over • Lurking = market research • Make mistakes while audience relatively
unsophisticated • Take part in shaping public opinion • Access to labour, capital • Must do pre-flight checklist if nothing else
WHY? Can’t we sit this out?
• “Our audience isn’t on social media” • “We don’t sell to consumers” • “People will say mean things” • “We don’t have time/resources to deal with
social media” • “IT won’t let us”
