It is important to assess the negative message and respond appropriately based on the overall public relations plan, rather than responding impulsively to every rumour or piece of negative information that appears in social media. It is also important to have an online presence and engage with customers before negative situations occur, rather than waiting until after the fact. Limiting your online presence may not be effective in preventing online attacks and malicious campaigns.
