Its often hard to know the difference between goals and objectives - in fact, we often use the two terms interchangeably. But knowing the difference can help us to use both in a constructive way, to get us from where we are to where we want to go.
Facebook has big plans for Messenger. The chat app isn't just going to be a quick way to hit up your friends, it's going to be a comprehensive platform that lets you do... almost anything. Send stickers, GIFs, check shipments, chat with businesses, and the list goes on.
There's no question that Facebook is the world's biggest social network and will probably continue to be for some time. But the way we use Facebook is changing: gradually, it's becoming a far more passive hub for our online social interactions.
Many businesses tweet and post but few take an active role in customer reviews. That’s a shame since customer review sites offer a far more concentrated and targeted conversation. More so, sites like Yelp are quickly becoming the first stop for potential customers that might be interested in your business.
First, even reading your business reviews is a good first step. Online customer reviews are usually very candid and give you a glimpse of how the customers really feel about your business.

Countless Yelpers have been turned from haters to life-long customers because a business went out of their way to make sure they were completely satisfied.
