  1. Melanie, This is an informative post that should serve to keep companies on alert for posts that can get them in trouble. It’s really hard to monitor what your employees do, but it doesn’t hurt to try to ensure they’re not saying stupid things with their personal accounts.

    As for the company accounts I’d agree with you that mixing personal and company accounts on a dashboard is a recipe for disaster. I know HootSuite will allow for different levels of use in that a lower level person can post the updates, but a manager can review, then actually make the posts live. This type of setup can go a long way to preventing simple user error.
