Here’s a little success story I’d love to share because it affected me personally! Back in September, I wrote about some social media apps/community sites that had fallen out of favour with me or just off my the radar. One of those applications was socialmedian a social news sharing site that I had struggled to get interested in. In fact because I had lost interest I was actually getting annoyed by the daily emails I was receiving about it. Though I thought it was done and over with I hadn’t got around to unsubscribing which is why it made my list.
Well socialmedian founder Jason Goldberg reached out right away via the comments with a heart-filled request to give socialmedian another chance. I remembered when I originally signed up that I saw a lot of potential in the site, so I took his advice and committed to giving it another chance. Well now I love it. I’m skimming my news almost daily, clipping articles and even commenting on news story I like. I haven’t worked it into my everyday social media routine but I’m well on my way.
And *that* is why it’s important to follow your brand online and reach out when necessary. Not only am I re-engaged in the site, but I’m writing about it here! Great work Jason, and keep it up with socialmedian!

**UPDATE** Looks like Mashable wrote did a much more in-depth review/interview with Jason Goldberg. Check it out…
