Put eMarketing to Work for You
“Some silly Facebook pages for certain vendors complete with faux-enthusiastic stories about what their reps have been doing in their hobbies etc. I really don’t care.” Oliver, Staff Scientist, Academia
“The amount of updates from vendors is far greater than I can manage with my busy schedule.” Allan, Lab Manger/Director, Industry
“Vendors are trying to use social media to substitute for adequate customer service and technical support. This is cheap and inefficient.” Beverly, Principal Investigator, Academia
Ouch. Scientists don’t mince words when they’re not happy about something, do they?
At least they’re clear about what they don’t like, which is helpful when you’re trying to sell to them.
It’s not that vendors WANT to be annoying. They aren’t TRYING to stuff a scientist’s inbox with irrelevant content. And they certainly don’t want their carefully crafted messages to end up in laboratory junk folders.
It’s just that navigating the digital marketing scene is so darn complicated.
