Social CSI III

In another case of how broadcasting your thoughts, pics, where you are at and more may land you in trouble consider the recent exposure a James Andrews from Ketchum Interactive.

The summary: while on a trip to client FedEx in Memphis James twittered and bagged on Memphis saying “I would die if I had to live here” well that got around to FedEx execs. after a FedEx person saw the twit.

And now poor James is out of a job or at least that is the rumors. But I have heard that Ketchum is not letting him go. Eitherway social marketing tools are good for business, networking, holding yourself out as an expert, PR and more but it is equally as dangerous.

I am pretty sure James is a good guy and who know the contextof the twit and yes this is way blown out of proportion so I wish him all the best that this blows over quickly.

So be aware Gill Grisom is everywhere and the Social CSI team may see what you are doing, said, where you are or more. So use some common sense out there……
