NOT ALLOWING COMMENTS OR CONNECTIONS AT ALL &#8230; and worse you\u2019re DELETING NEGATIVE COMMENTS!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Why even have an account on SOCIAL media if you don\u2019t want people to be SOCIAL? Ever come across a Twitter account that is \u201cPRIVATE\u201d and it\u2019s for a business? That\u2019s counterproductive. That\u2019s like making your website private and your viewer actually needs your permission to view your products and resources. \u00a0Yikes! Who does that!?!<\/p>\n<p>You all know Facebook has a setting that basically silences your community. Fans are not able to post a question or comment. If you are so worried that people will write something negative about you or your brand\u2014then why bother creating an account in the first place? Fix the problem that has you so worried. People will talk with you and about you, you just have to decide whether or not you are going to join the conversation. If someone does post a negative comment, your initial reaction might be to quickly delete it before anyone else sees it. Beware, a consumer who is a bit upset and posts it on your page might simply want to see if you will respond and help fix their situation. (see post, \u201cSomeone\u2019s talking about you on Social Media\u201d). That same consumer will become enraged when they discover they are being silenced.
