online appointment scheduling Few people would walk into a professional meeting and ask for job leads, but many seasoned professionals commit the online version of this faux pas regularly. No matter how well you know contacts — or how panicked you are about unemployment — never mention a job hunt in an initial note to anyone on a social-networking site. “You’ve got to think of all the people who are looking for jobs right now — they’re probably being overwhelmed,” says Randy Hain, managing partner of Bell Oaks Executive Search in Atlanta. Instead, offer some praise or acknowledgement or, even better, some well-thought-out help or advice with no strings attached.

During today’s panel and speaker discussions, I heard a lot of trepidation, fear, and uncertainty from many of the brands. Most are answering the first two of the five questions (”what” and “why”) I use to gauge company sophistication. Some mentioned they want to toe-dip and get out if it didn’t work well, others mentioned they were monitoring, and some feel threatened by the peer to peer models that cut out the middle man.

The finance industry has a unique challenge, hindered by government regulations and often a conservative culture, they have a real challenge embracing the online conversation that’s already happening between customers.

Criteria: Although there are many finance startups and consumer review sites, this list is really about the financial institutions, large brands, and banks that are adopting social media to reach customers.

while the ten principles listed provide a comprehensive check list for lending to small

entrepeneurs, list is suitable for urban lending. List stops short at providing insight to lending to

rural low income clients where thre is a huge gap in satisfying demand, operational costs for

lenders limits their capacity to follow up/monitor clients/end users and limited collateral to

access credit. I will appreciate feedback on succesful approaches for lending small/low income

Web 2.0 and Social Media represent the future of all business, and it's obvious to me that Banks, Credit Card, finance companies in Dallas, and Lenders are investing in it. I recently heard of an airline announcing its offers on twitter, and I was very pleased to see Skittle's site turned into a Social Media interactive portal.

Unless you want to be in the finance business, avoid lending money to anyone, especially people you know. If you can afford it, just give money to those who need it. No strings, no IOUs, no need to collect. The person you give it to will also likely stop trying to borrow from you out of sheer embarrasment.

Unlike if you lend to someone in need, you just recruited a borrower for life. Some people just can’t get out of the crap they’re in even if they had the means to fix it already. The attention they crave from people who commiserate (and lend them more money) is what matters.

They will deny this of course.

With such a changing time it is difficult to predict the future changes to business practices, and even the changes in the world economy. I read on a blog the other day the largest population of english speakers are China… what a shocker( for me anyway). As well as the way China is attacking the global consumer market, and the wests' all aboard mentality , leads me to the conclusion that perhaps we should not be the targets to these businesses , but rather the new rising elite and visionaries of the economic world that appear to be getting richer. Does this mean we will eventually get poorer?

Nice post Jeremiah, it’s interesting to see how social media is being applied to a complex and highly regulated industry like finance.

Jeremy Newman, the global CEO of accounting firm BDO (and a client of mine) has used his blog over the past couple of years to http://blog.e-bdo.com/ to set out his views on accounting regulations and how they need to change to mitigate the risk of another economic crash of the scale we’ve just experienced.

Jeremy finds the blog invaluable for making sure his views on quite a sophisticated topic are communicated clearly and accurately.

No real-world examples, but Twitter would be a great vehicle to push out stock performance and interest rates, as well as Tip of the Day items to help folks increase their financial IQ.

The Citywire Blog for UK financial advisers has fast become the industry’s watering hole where advisers discuss topics ranging from investments to technology and regulation. The UK’s regulatory authority, the FSA, has used it to get feedback on new initiatives.
