  To transition from meeting prospects into signing contracts, Thomas advised I shoudl find a common issue my prospects are facing, and show them how to resolve it in one go, be it by organizing a meeting, through a video, a newsletter. I believe I will be able to apply this to the letter.

  New Svasti-Xuto, Bangkok Metropolitan Area, Thailand

  Thomas was incredibly helpful. Before talking to him I never thought about what an online communities can do to my business and my product. I run a business selling sweets use as gift for different occasion. I approach Thomas with a specific question on how to best harness voice of customer in my business facebook page. While, Thomas did not pinpoint the exact 1 "best" technique to do it, he gave me a thought pattern on how to think about using online communities to your advantage. What I take home from this call are two things. 1. People love to be heard. This makes the idea of co-creation more than possible for company who has an establish community. As a start-up, you should always tap in to this pool of customer advice. 2. Online engagement is create by a combination of "Push and Pull" activities. Push meaning you push in valuable message. Pull meaning you ask for feedback/interaction, allowing your community to feel that they are heard. I suggest anyone before launching or put serious effort in their online community to talk to Thomas beforehand. He is going to save you tons of time and offer you good thinking guidance on how to successfully engage with your fans.
