Got Fint? Integrating social networks into your company's website

By: Marijean Jaggers | 09/20/2010

In a meeting with a client prospect, I heard a word I hadn't heard before.

"We want fint. Can you give us that?"

HUH?

And then I saw what he was talking about.

FinT

The buttons for Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter when ordered and displayed in this manner do, indeed, appear to spell the word fint. (Not, of course, that fint is a word.)

The answer, in short, is yes, we can do that. The longer answer is that social networking is a piece of your overall communications strategy and we'll want to talk to you about how you're going to use "fint" and what we can do to help you acheive your business goals through communication.

Have you heard anyone else refer to the big three social platforms as "fint?" Is this something that's catching on?

I have a feeling I’ll be hearing fint all the time now that you’ve mentioned it to me. I agree that the appropriate approach to answering that question involves training clients how to use “fint” properly.. I can direct you to many of my clients who have empty “fint”

I haven’t heard it referred to this way before, but I have to admit - I hope it catches on!

Will we soon be “FINT-ing” and saying things like “FINT” me?
