Case Study: Financial, Customer Service —

Case Study: Technology, Reputation Management — Within days after product launch, a software firm found customer dissatisfaction with specific product features. Action: The firm's programmers fixed the bugs and made a patch available within days for download. Case Study: Medicine/Health, Reputation Management — A pharmaceutical firm found specialist MDs discussing its product online and recommending it inappropriately. Action: A professional relations staff member published corrective information wherever and whenever doctors posted incorrect recommendations. Case Study: Telecommunications, Competitive Intelligence — A telco uncovered a competitor's strategy on the company's website. Action: The company used the intelligence to refine its presentations during legislative hearings — with the legislature ultimately upholding the company's position.
