Good one Mark.. will have to add inaction and indecision to go along with the indifference under Respond. I think people trust when the see, hear something, some action, they respond to leadership, to those who step up and make decisions. Perhaps the 9th thing I’d add: be human. In all of these, being open, not hiding behind policy.. you’re dealing with people, so it helps to act like a person. FWIW.

Great infographic!!! very clear!!
May I share it in my blog? I’ll publish in 12h (tomorrow morning in Spain). Please contact me if there’s any problem, Ok?? thank you!

Thanks Tristan – please feel free to share the infographic on your blog.

Thanks

Thanks for dropping by with a comment. Leadership is key – actions speak louder than words, slogans, mission statements, etc. Humanization is a great addition. I believe audiences give brands some slack if they feel they are dealing with a real person that is listening to what they have to say. 

A great point, #3 is my personal favorite. It
speaks to a situation I’m facing right now.

Without going into detail, I’ll say this; I
don’t like looking at a brand in mere pieces but as a whole. There is such disconnect
from what we see online and the physical store. Time should also be spent on
creating experiences inside the physical store, experiences that are in line
with what is being promoted online, which helps to reinforce the brand’s position.
In other words, you visit someone’s website and it’s truly awesome but if you
were to visit their physical location, it’s a complete mess.

For those brands that manage a brick and
mortar store in addition to a website, that lasting feeling should be the same
online and offline. 

 Great post once again Mark.
You always are on the edge of thinking outside the box and very clever.
Thanks!

This is a great infographic Mark, thanks for sharing! I especially like the design here, this sense of veering left and right, perhaps, in and out of trust. I think many of these points are fundamental and I agree wiht @lauHRa:disqus that these are valuable characteristics of any business relationship. However, I think online, social in particular, is showing us how far transparency and honesty can really go. I’ve seen so many examples where companies blunder, fess up, maybe even make fun of themselves, and are all the better for it.

Great post and visualization!

From a social science perspective, I would add that the first step to build online trust is to be perceived as trustworthy. Trust builds gradually (and often slowly) and people first evaluate others’ trustworthiness, based on dimensions such as ability, integrity and benevolence.

If you’d like to know more about these dimensions and their perceptions within social netwerking sites, have a look at the abstract of my academic research: http://stenkate.blogspot.com/2009/03/trustworthiness-within-social.html

we are going to worry about. This is not going to stop us. ” The reshuffling also seemed to represent an effort by interest groups within the rebel movement, cheap burberry belt online store including homegrown leaders who helped start the uprising, to assert their power by sidelining leaders who had returned from exile and held key posts. For months, there had been complaints that cabinet members were unknown to most Libyans, spending most of their time abroad – especially in Qatar,

Great post Mark. I think I would add something about ‘being authentic’ as it relates to building trust.  Be clear about who you are (and who you aren’t), what you do well (or not), and how you are contributing to the greater good (or not). The phrase ‘be human’ also keeps popping into my mind. Not that a company can be ‘human’ per say, but treat people with dignity and respect, and don’t be afraid to have a little fun. Know these point touch on the 8 pillars you have outlined, but hopefully they help. 

This is a great brand of computer graphics, thanks for sharing! I especially like the design here, that feeling of turning left and right, perhaps in and out of confidence. I think many of these issues are fundamental and agree with lauhra these are the interesting features of any business relationship.

Mark what an excellent post. Your 8 steps to building trust are so easy to understand yet so many fail to be able to live up to these universally accepted principles. Thank you for sharing and I especially appreciated your “brand promise” point. At our Thai village silk business we continually have to tell people that we cannot create certain colours as we are committed to the use of only natural dye materials. We never use chemical dyes and sure we may lose some prospective customers but we can still feel proud we are doing our bit for the environment.

Great tips, I would like to join your blog anyway,

I would love to track your future posts pertaining to the said topic we are able to read.

Mark– Loved the infographic. I think a big part of building trust is simply being a person. You work for a brand, but you bring personalization to the brand, so show it. And be consistent in your messaging. A little work will go a long way. Here’s a great post with some tips for creating trust through different online platforms.
