Government Printers Meet in New Orleans
The Four E's of Customer Contact
In his kickoff keynote address, Kodak's Egeling suggested that in-plants use social media like Facebook and Twitter to engage, educate, evangelize and excite their customers. What's important, he said, is to keep the in-plant fresh in the minds of customers.
He warned against focusing on equipment lists and services when communicating with clients, and showed some government in-plant Web sites that do precisely that. Your site, he said, should clearly state what the in-plant can do to help customers. It should also be interesting and engaging for visitors.
