People Trust Heat Eat Review
I started following this chick on Twitter and found
her site, its pretty cool. She isn’t the only one
who reviews frozen and instant meals so you
get a very unbiased opinion on these frozen
dinners. So next time your in the freezer section
and your wondering if that’s gonna taste
anywhere near as good as it looks on the box,
look no further.http://jetgirl.wordpress.com/2009/02/25/huzzah/

Nobody listens to you.

Be Genuine
“Trust, in social media,
seems to blossom with
humility and selflessness.”Michael

Communicate Authentically
Social media provides new ways to connect and interact with
people; and it is a powerful and important tool. There are hundreds of
dynamic applications that are improving the way we communicate,
work and live. But, it is just as important that we stand back from
time to time and focus as much on what we are saying as how we
are saying it. In the end, whether it's snail mail, email or Facebook,
my point is that it’s ultimately most important to communicate in a
meaningful way. Don't just fall in love with the tool. Fall back in love
with having real conversations.

Takeaways on Gaining Trust
• Be Genuine.
Transparency is essential. Lack of it will drive people away
and make them talk about you rather than with you.
• Have a Human Face.
Social media is interactive. It means conversation.
Conversations go two ways, not just one way.
• Use the Right Tools.
One size does not fit all.
Think about what you can support.
