2011 Austin SBS | Josh Bernoff, Empowered Employees
- 3. Josh: All I need is the promise that when I go into the bank after my trip is over, you'll refund the money when I give back the Euros. Terry: I really am unable to comment on this but we will assist you as far as possible. Josh: Not really a good answer. Terry: I understand but it is out of my reach. Terry: I cannot make promises, as it needs to be researched in a banking center only. Josh: Me and my 10,000 twitter followers (@jbernoff) will be waiting to see how resourceful you are.

- Ted: Here’s a story with a very different ending. Josh Korin, iPhone failed, Best Buy store manager refused to give him a replacement. Tweets (596 followers): “Worst customerservice ever? Bestbuy, what’s the point of Geek Squad phone insurance, if you replace an iPhone with a Blackberry? Honor your insurance plan. Best Buy has Twelpforce. An army of 2,500 people. Customer service. Geek squad. In-store Blue Shirts. All listening and responding. Coral Biegler looked him up. Solved his problem. Tweeted that she would get an answer. And then arranged for the replacement he needed. But the point is not that they listen to Twitter and respond. This company is built differently, it runs differently. For example, this guy is Ben Hedrington. When the idea of Twelpforce originally came up, he figured out how to do it. He’s a technical guy in marketing. Then he turned it over to this guy. John Bernier. He pushed it through to completion. Labor laws, the rollout – he made it all happen. And they all were able to succeed because of this guy: Barry Judge. He’s the CMO. And he runs best buy’s marketing in such a way that people like John Bernier, Ben Hedrington, and Coral Biegler can come up with the ideas, implement them, and reach out to empowered customers. Which is a good thing, because Josh Korin is married to Amy Korin, she has thousands of followers, and now they’re both tweeting about what a great place Best Buy is.
- Another example. Pharma, hard to do word of mouth. Restrictions. Synvisc-One. Injection for sore knees. Lubricant. People 55+ Christine Waite, worked with Healthtalker. Find people who had the product and liked it. Recruit them into program. Train them. Given them materials. They then talk about it with others. 450 people in pilot program generated 1500 conversations. Will expand. People will go to orthopedist.
