A partner’s scandal or a client’s negative publicity by association can affect your reputation. Mike Swenson provided some real-world examples, underscoring that the damage often comes not from the event, but from mishandling the response.  "If something happens to a financial advising company or someone in our space, that also happens to us because now customers are reading or hearing about that, seeing it on social media platforms. And so naturally, as a customer, I'm going to go, well, I know that's company A over here and I'm with company B, but it plants a slight seed of doubt. Could that happen to my advisor?" - Mike Swenson  If your communication is slow or tone-deaf, you'll lose trust, which hits your bottom line more than the crisis itself. That's why proactive outreach, especially when competitors stumble, can be a powerful brand-building moment. No one is immune, but everyone can choose how they respond.  Follow Mike Swenson:  LinkedIn:   /     Company: https://crisistrak.com/  Podcast: https://www.kcmarketinglegends.com/  This podcast is edited and managed by the team at PodcastAbundance.com (http://podcastabundance.com/) and we’d love to produce your podcast too!
