Bad memory reaps rich reward in the shape of a case study in community building
So last week I posted on the social media initiatives of some of Canada’s bigger/est banks… A day or so later, Michael Seaton, the catalyst behind Scotiabank’s own Web2.0 campaigns, reminded me – in an excellent contextual post - of Van City’s Change Everything initiative which I had somehow forgotten to include, particularly as it was one of the first foray’s into the social web by a sizable Canadian corporation.
And good thing he did. As that illicited a response from William Azaroff, Interactive Marketing & Channel Manager at Vancity, whose blog I then happened to visit.
And good thing I did. Because he has just recently concluded a three-part series (published on Netbanker) on his experience in launching, measuring and managing the Change Everything campaign. It’s a compelling case study, chock-a-block with useful insights.
I’m guessing I should be forgetful more often… I’m almost hoping I’ve missed something else?

I… I… forgot what I was going to say.
(Okay: now to sit back and let the magic happen!)

And good thing Rob commented on my blog… cuz I’ve now just re-visited Rob’s blog and in reading his latest post (Aug 23) have just been exposed to Rob’s cartooning efforts at http://www.socialsignal.com/noise-to-signal, which are damn funny!!… what more am I gonna get in return for my original oversight… anyone?
