		<description>My personal thought is that should you want good customers to come back again and again then the relationship you build with them is the key to the whole thing. Fortunately both the companies that need to market and the companies who are marketing fail on two fronts meaning that there is space for both.

The companies lack the skills and know how to actually manage their customers online (not all but a majority) through social media, and the companies that promote for these companies lack the real knowledge about the products, services and clients way of thinking to effectively build the right relationship.

Would it not be a better idea to have the companies that are trying to do the promotion for these companies, teach them rather than do it for them? That way everyone wins?</description>
