Your agruments over the use of socail media are perfectly sound. I think the problem that currently exists in Business Aviation has been the extremely slow adaptation of new media technologies. Take the fractionals for example, almost NONE of them have even started to use Twitter. Here is part of the industry that has seen its business fall over 50 percent in the last year and NOT ONE of them seem to be using the power of social media either for customer feedback or for business advocacy. I have been preaching the use of social media for businesses for a while, even go so far as to state that fact directly on Twitter and linkedin. Each business has the power to bring this industry back to where it should be, but as you said, it will take a concerted effort to get the word out. This is one of the few times that Business Aviation can take the lead in its message. Its time to be proactive rather than reacitve for the sake of our jobs and our indsutry. Quite simply, those companies that are early adopters of social media and its potential, will be the leaders in the field as business aviation recovers from the economic downturn. Well said!
