Study: Top Companies Using Web 2.0 to Improve Marketing, Customer Satisfaction
July 17, 2008 By Melissa Campanelli
The study revealed that top companies are more than 17 times more likely to improve customer satisfaction than less successful companies -- 89 percent versus 5 percent respectively -- through the use of social media.
It also showed that best-in-class companies have established organizational processes to use consumer-generated insights in product-development initiatives and marketing campaigns.
Top performing companies currently use company-hosted blogs (57 percent), wikis (43 percent), and customer rating and feedback solutions (37 percent) to create an online social media experience that simultaneously provides customers with opportunities for collaboration and individuality.
The report was underwritten by Awareness, Mzinga, and Small World Labs -- all companies that provide social networking and social media tools.
