Not getting social? Know the risks• Are you monitoring what might be said
online about your business?• Do you have people who are “web 2.0-
savvy” and know their ‘netiquette’?• Can you respond quickly and appropriately
in the event of potentially damaging online publicity?
• Are your competitors engaging with stakeholders online?
