Is this what social media fail looks like
This is what a social media fail looks like: 900+ comments and no response from VW.
On their Facebook fan page VW was asking for advice for 2012:
“We hope you had a fantastic New Year. Do you have any resolutions and what would you like to see us do more of this year?”
Over 900+ people hopped – probably inspired from “The Dark Side” – on their page and told VW to stop lobbying against climate laws. Despite the 900 comments, there’s not been a single word in response from VW.
If the brief history of social media has told us anything, it’s that ignoring people doesn’t make them disappear, it just makes them angry.
