The real-time web has given customers amazing power to vent their issues in a very public and gigantic space. It’s why companies such as Comcast launched @ComcastCares, a Twitter channel completely devoted to customer support and well, customer complaints.

Get a few folks on Twitter, tack on a hashtag to the tune of #thiscompanysucks, and suddenly you’re at the center of a nationally trending conversation that could’ve been easily prevented had you just been prepared. More than ever, companies need to have a strategy in place to prevent online customer service dust ups from becoming full-blown disasters.
