Help! I need a title for this curly article!

Still suffering from some Post-Silvester pains?
And from a little blogging block like I do?

The power of reviews and social media is rising :-)

Have to share this one with you:

The best management response of all time

A traveler complained of cockroaches in a hotel. This is what the hotelier had to say in response to their review:

I think your comments unkind. Cockroaches are prehistoric creatures and can survive atomic bombs and weapons of mass destruction!

While you are still laughing ...

The Last Laugh

In fact, I told the management there that I was putting a review on your website about their poor service and they laughed at me and said go right ahead, nobody reads the TripAdvisor site.

By now you might have a clue why this article is posted on performancing.com ...

The blogging hook

Give back to the commenting users.

Or ask your readers to look for the funniest comments. Funniest, best, most helpful ... You name it.

  • Did you put a 'Funniest Comments of 20nn' item into your editorial calendar?
  • Could you imagine to transfer your funniest comments into a press release?

TripAdvisor did and this way they got me.

And Yes, 'Help! I need a title for this article!' is a real cry for help!
