Summary
In this minicast on The Heart of Marketing Jayme Soulati and John Gregory Olson look at the implications of Facebook legacy contacts and the need for succession planning to manage your business social accounts and digital assets through staff transitions.
About This Minicast
On Feb. 13, 2015, a story appeared in the Wall Street Journal about Facebook allowing appointment of new legacy contact managers. People and businesses concerned about the digital afterlife for their shared social media content can now assign a legacy contact. Google+ has an inactive account manager for such an event.
Choose carefully as Facebook will not allow continuous selection and change of the appointee!
Jayme is convinced this is important news while John suggests that planning is more critical than appointing a legacy contact. See what you think and add comments, too!
