its a conversation
And right now
pharma is largely
peripheral
to it
This conversation
will go on
regardless
And a choice not to
engage is a choice for
irrelevance
Its more
influential
than marketing
or mass media
And the health conversation
going on out there right now is big

The Disconnected Connectors Who Dont Care
SOURCE: Forrester Research, North American Technographics Benchmark Survey, 2008
*Based on a Forrester score for emotional and behavioral value of social support
Percent of consumers participating in some form of social media at least monthly
Misery Loves Company
These patients who are managing
difficult, chronic problems stand to
benefit most from social media,
because they are also likely to
connect with and support one
another online
Lonely Fellow Sufferers
These patients, whose
participation in social media is
below average could benefit but
dont share online
Connectors Who Dont Care
These patients willingly connect
for non-health reasonsbut not
about their health problems.
The Disconnected
This group is likely neither to seek
fellow disease sufferers nor to
realize significant benefit from
doing so

Frank Eliason: Helping
Comcast suck a little bit less
I can give full kudos to Frank for being
so personable, and as much as it
pains me to say it, I have to
acknowledge Comcast as a whole for
bringing customer service to the digital
age.
BusinessWeek: I think it's safe
to call Comcast's Frank Eliason
the most famous customer
service manager in the U.S.,
possibly in the world.

What can we learn from Comcast & Obama?
34
Are we ready to put them
first?
Do we really want to know
what our customers
think about us?
Do we know how to have a real
conversation
with them instead of a
monologue?
Are we willing to make the
changes
in our organizations that
this will require?
