<p><em>Last month, our friend David Griner did a <a href="http://www.thesocialpath.com/social-media-makeover.html" target="_blank">30 Day Social Media Makeover</a> on The Social Path.  We loved it, and thought it was a great idea. </em></p>
<p><em>Since the core of what we do at <a href="http://www.doeanderson.com" target="_blank">Doe-Anderson</a> is <a href="http://www.doeanderson.com/house-of-brand-enthusion.aspx" target="_blank">building relationships between consumers and brands</a>, we thought it would be cool to do something similar.  So in honor of Valentine&#8217;s Day, all this month we&#8217;ll be sharing <strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">28 Days to Make People Fall in Love with Your Brand</span></strong>.  We hope you enjoy it. </em></p>
<h2>DAY 1:  Be Where They Are</h2>
<p>They say “familiarity breeds contempt” and “absence makes the heart grow fonder.”</p>
<p>Rubbish.</p>
<p>Ask anyone who is in a relationship. They’ll tell you half of making it work is managing to get sufficient face time with the one you love.</p>
<p>And you love your customers and prospects, right? Of course you do.  So why wouldn’t you want to be where they are?</p>
<p>Are the people you want to reach on <a href="http://www.facebook.com" target="_blank">Facebook</a>? <a href="http://www.twitter.com">Twitter</a>? <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_forum">Forums</a>?</p>
<p>Are you?</p>
<p>If not—fix that.</p>
