supported by a technology platform, business rules, workflow,

customer in a collaborative conversation in order to provide
mutually beneficial value in a trusted and transparent
business environment. It's the company's response to the
customer's ownership of the conversation.

“It's not a social game. It’s a multichannel game where companies and customers decide on how they
want to communicate with each other and then proceed to do so in ways that ultimately (and hopefully)
provide value to each of the parties involved.” - Paul Greenberg
