Why Every Social Interaction is an Opportunity

This episode of Jay Today comes to you from the Social Fresh conference (http://socialfresh.com). Laurie Meacham of Jetblue spoke at the conference about her experiences leading social media for the popular airline. She told an interesting story about a tweet that referenced the old Oregon Trail game (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Oregon_Trail_(computer_game)). Instead of saying a generic "thank you," Jetblue came back with a fun and relevant reply that truly impressed their passenger (https://twitter.com/JetBlue/status/258938937698054145). 

Changing the way we interact and respond to the people who are watching us gives us a chance to make a lifelong customer (or personal friend).
