Communication Strategy

Government has two primary communications goals:1. Getting information to users (riders)2. Articulating value to non-users
(taxpayers)
Feedback and conversation are critical; many government agencies are notoriously poor at it

Social Customer Care
16
With the click of one button we can
automatically send the tweet to crews,
open and close a case in Salesforce to
collect the complaint data, and add a
tag so we can measure how often this
happens.
The crew’s response:
CAR 1761 WAS COLD. CYCLED HVAC BY
TECH. NOW OK
Then we can reply with the follow up
and close the loop.
