Many Unhappy Returns: Gulf Oil Spill Anniversary

The recent passing of the anniversary of the Deep-water Horizon Oil Spill in which eleven were killed and 4.2 million barrels discharged into the Gulf of Mexico is spotlighting the on-going debate about how much damage this incident really may have done to the environment.

However there is no question that this incident had a profound impact on oil giant BP’s reputation. During the height of the crisis some thought that the damage might be long lasting.

Lately however pundits think it is just a question of time before the company gets the “all clear.”

While this crisis and how it was handled or mishandled is one for the PR textbooks, there is no textbook response to successfully managing communications when a catastrophe of this magnitude occurs. It’s both an art and a science.

How well or how poorly BP handled the situation will be a subject of debate for years to come. What do you think?

Below are some of the key tenets of crisis communications:
Crisis PR: The Golden Rules
Have a Plan – Prepare it in advance, share it, adhere to it.
Designate a Spokesperson – Someone who can powerfully tell your story.
Agree to Key Messages – Make them concise, clear and simple.
Be Proactive – Get in front of the issue before it gets in front of you.
Take Responsibility – Own up to the good and to the bad.
Be Authentic – People respond to what (or who) is genuine.
Listen to Feedback – And tailor your response to address it.
Manage Expectations – Under promise and over deliver.
Don’t Speculate – Focus on the facts, on the here and now.
Be Transparent – The truth inevitably comes to light.

The Last Word:

A crisis can make or break a company an individual or a brand.

As one of my favorite quotes attributed to 35thAmerican President John Fitzgerald Kennedy elegantly states it – “When written in Chinese the word ‘crisis’ is comprised of two characters – one represents danger, and the other represents opportunity.”

HTML5: What It Is, And More Importantly, What It Isn’t

HTML5’s early adoption by movers and shakers in the desktop browsers and mobile device market have stirred a lot of excitement, as well as occasional confusion for non-developers and programmers.

HTML5: What It Is, And More Importantly, What It Isn't

HTML5 is a newer version of the existing HTML markup language. Its early adoption by movers and shakers in the desktop browsers and mobile device market have stirred a lot of excitement, as well as occasional confusion for non-developers and programmers. Below are some analogies to help better understand the changes with this latest version of HTML and to clarify common misconceptions as to how it impacts the web.

The release of HTML5 is analogous to Webster’s releasing an updated version of a dictionary with the addition of new words. In most instances, the use of HTML5 tags may change the delivery method, but does not visibly change the end user’s experience; the overall message or content being delivered remains the same.

Much of the additional vocabulary introduced by HTML5 is commonly used already, but will allow developers to more efficiently:

Identify segments of a website for search engine parsing including header, navigation, and footer elements, sections and articles
Embed rich media content including videos and audios with more widely accepted formats.

HTML5 also introduces new methods of integrating client-side storage to streamline calls to the web server and associated databases, usually by syncing frequently accessed information locally on a user’s computer or phone. For mobile apps, this allows minimizing data transfers avoiding excess data usage and throttling from service providers.

HTML5: What It Is, And More Importantly, What It Isn't

Although many web browsers and mobile devices have begun to adopt and support HTML5, there are several that are incompatible and may have issues displaying various HTML5 elements. Browsers that currently offer limited support of HTML5 include:

Internet Explorer 9+ (available for MS Windows versions 7 and greater only)
Firefox 5+
Chrome 12+
Safari 5.0+
Opera 10.6+
iOS Safari 3.2+
Opera Mini 5.0+
Opera Mobile 10.0+
Android Browser 3.0+

The CanIUse.com website provides great compatibility tables for identifying which browsers support different HTML5, CSS3, and other newer proposed web encoding tags and features.

Just as users of Microsoft Office versions 2003 and older cannot readily open files created in Office 2007 and higher, and graphic designers using Adobe Creative Suite 3 cannot open files created in CS5, not all end-users will be able to view a website encoded with HTML5. As a result, web developers need to add additional code (in CSS and JavaScript) for backwards compatibility and cross-browser compatibility. While there are some functions and snippets of code that already exist for common compatibility concerns, more often than not, they will still need to be “tweaked” by developers for each individual website.

In the end, here are a few questions to consider when deciding if your site should be fully coded in older versions of HTML4 or in HTML5:

html 5

Does it really matter if your package is delivered by a Fed-Ex or UPS truck that runs on biodiesel, electricity, or gasoline? The newer technologies still often utilize a reserve of older proven techniques. (Hybrid vehicles still have a reserve tank).

Do you want a high-def or 3-D television? While 3-D tvs may be all the hype, they are still fairly new to the market and have their glitches. The HTML5 standard may already be supported by a wide variety of browsers, but has yet to be formally ratified and accepted as the new language for encoding web-pages.

Should I serve a traditional turkey, tofurkey, or turducken to at my Thanksgiving party? Hopefully, you’ll serve what the you AND the majority of your guests would enjoy. In regards to HTML5, ask yourself what browser or mobile device platform does the majority of your target audience use?

HTML5 is not a phenomenal new technology that replaces content delivery platforms and content management systems. It does not “enhance” images or videos as viewed by the end user. It is not a drawing and illustration tool like Adobe Illustrator, MS Paint, or Google Sketchup. It does not necessarily provide a better user experience for end-users and visitors of websites, as much as it provides a better experience for the developers and authors of websites.

HTML5: What It Is, And More Importantly, What It Isn't

In summary, until the HTML5 standard has been ratified and fully adopted, developers need to help their clients understand that features of HTML5 should be incorporated only when appropriate and applicable. Content management systems like Drupal and WordPress have themes that utilize the more supported tags and will continue to work in conjunction with web standards such as HTML5 and CSS3. Many developers, including the team at Star Group, are already making use of HTML5 as deemed feasible, and eagerly await reaching final consensus and adoption of the standard.

The Honor Roll Presents “The Champagne Room”

When DJ Tap.10 dropped his Champagne Soul mix in 2011, he was introducing a sub-genre that he and his Honor Roll brethren had diagnosed years earlier. The 80s R&B that fit the bill is characterized by the smooth synthed-out romance of acts like Surface, Mtume, Midnight Star and Loose Ends. Even if some of those names don’t ring a bell, chances are you’ve heard a lot of these tunes.

THE HONOR ROLL PRESENTS “THE CHAMPAGNE ROOM”

These joints hearken back to a romanticized era of big cars, nice suits, and two stepping in well-appointed lounges while bubbly pours and men pine for alluring women. Although this genre didn’t outlive the Reagan administration, traces of its influence still crop up over time. To offer a local example, Oakland R&B duo Christión invoked this sound and imagery with the song and video for their 1996 hit “Full of Smoke.”

Fast-forward almost twenty more years and the Bay Area’s young Honor Roll Crew has not only discovered and named the genre, they’ve graduated from purveyors to producers of Champagne Soul. The Trackademicks-helmed project inspired by this music is called The Champagne Room and has been in the works for quite some time. Tapping long time collaborators Teedra Moses, Phonte, Joyo Velarde and the crew’s resident crooner 1-O.A.K., Tracks has created something that is at once futuristic and homage to the past.

THE HONOR ROLL PRESENTS “THE CHAMPAGNE ROOM”

The purely instrumental “El Dorado Nights” sounds like it could have been produced in 1983, while the majority of the project – including current favorite “What’s Wrong?” – incorporates Trackademicks’s more contemporary sensibilities. The goal wasn’t to make a purely throwback project but to propel these sonics into the 21st century and stay true to the crew’s roots at the same time. As Tap.10 recently told the SF Weekly, “It’s important to maintain your own sound and not follow trends.” It doesn’t hurt to set them either.

Don’t Fear Consumer Satisfaction Surveys

A recent study reveals businesses should not fear asking their customers as over 50% of those who complete surveys do so to share a positive experience.

Are you a business owner? Are you afraid to ask your customer what they think?

Don’t be…

A survey recently conducted by Chadwick Martin Bailey, a custom market research firm, found that over 1/4 of U.S. consumers have completed a customer satisfaction survey in the last twelve months and that most completed them because they have the company’s best interest at heart.

Some more of the survey findings…

57% fill out customer satisfaction surveys to share a good experience
50% do so to improve the company
60% of women participate in customer satisfaction surveys to share a good experience compared to…
52% of men who do the same thing
53% of men fill out the survey to improve the company compared to 47% of women
But the biggest disparity among gender lies in enticement as 50% of women participate to receive a discount compared to 40% of men.

The survey also helped to bust a longstanding myth that people ONLY respond to satisfaction surveys if they had a bad experience as the research showed:

81% respond to surveys whether their experience was bad or good
4% said they respond when they have had a bad experience
13% said they respond when they have had a good experience
Jeff McKenna, senior consultant and director of customer satisfaction solutions at Chadwick Martin Bailey summed it all up quite nicely…

“Our research shows that companies currently managing customer satisfaction or ‘Voice of the Customer’ programs have a huge opportunity to cultivate and nurture key customers. Overall, they are showing devotion to a company and, at the very least, companies should be thanking the customers who provide insightful comments, whether they are problems or praises.”

So, don’t fear the Consumer Satisfaction Survey! Embrace them. Use them as a learning tool. Use them as a means to engage your customer.
