I feel the same about outsourcing customer complaint lines. It's a tough call when you look at the benefits of each. It's one of those issues where I can argue both sides fairly well, I think. That always makes for a very difficult decision. Mark, I don't disagree. I feel the same about outsourcing customer complaint lines. It's a tough call when you look at the benefits of each.

But I wonder how they could be as authentic or have as much passion as someone who actually works for the company. Steve,

If you have a strong relationship with a partner such as a PR firm, I guess, in theory, they could use Twitter or a blog on your behalf. But I wonder how they could be as authentic or have as much passion as someone who actually works for the company.

I am debating/thinking this through right now. How could you have someone outside your company really do it justice? But, the other side is you have outside ad agencies, pr firms, etc. So, why not have one of them handle the tweets for you? In theory, they should know the business. And, they need to passionate about it. Instilling passion is a goal for using twitter and other forms of social media marketing, right? So, it seems inevitable that social media agencies, and divisions within existing agencies, will grow in '09. As you can see, the debate continues. Interesting post.

But it makes sense that a company hire 1 person who knows the company, who is passionate about the company to twit for them. Maybe someone from the PR or HR department. Funny how this type of job could actually have a real presence in 2009. Where do I sign up? I'm not sure I wouldn't want this job.

Where do I sign up?
