Taking a Corporate Brand from Good to Great (4 of 4)

Monitor Your Brand…
A great brand can be costly and can take months, if not years, to build. It’s a foundational piece in your marketing communication that you do not want to be without. In this internet age It can be destroyed in hours by a blogger upset with your company. Stay connected to what is being said. The first thing to do is acquire a feed reader. (Google reader has many nice features.)
1. Google Alerts are email updates of the latest results based on your choice of query or topic. The alerts tracks blog posts, news articles, videos and even groups.
2. Blog Comments – Use BackType.com
3. Social Comments
Yacktrack.com searches WordPressBlogger, StumbleuponDiggFriendFeed, etc. for comments on you and your blogging, social media, activity.
4. Twitter – Using Twitter search, you can locate any instances of your name. Try Twilert .
5. FriendFeed.com is a social aggregator. You can search your brand throughout all social networks at once.
