Your business is on social media, You have your content all figured out, your social profiles are growing, you’re on top of things. And one day, IT happens: some angry customer leaves a negative comment on your Facebook, or mentions you in a very angry tweet. What do you do?
You might be a well-trained community manager, or maybe just handling the social accounts of your own small business. No matter what the circumstances are, there is one thing you need to do for sure: stay cool, think and decide on a course of action.
There are many ways humans deal with negative feedback, but when it comes to business, negative comments become even more important, and not because they can potentially arm your business, they could also make it stronger and better!
So what do you do with negative comments? Delete? Respond? Ignore? Remember that dealing with an unhappy customer on social media should not be very much different than dealing with one in a real store.
