That's a good distinction to make. I think you're right that a lot of people actually do hear the words and so think they are listening to their customers, but they aren't really letting those words in and understanding what their customers are saying. It is funny isn’t it?

I really doubt that you can find a couple wearing "advertiser" and "consumer" T-shirts and walking around haha. Anyway there was this sentence by "consumer" who said " you're not even listening are you?" A simple sentence but I feel something stronger behind it. We keep saying that we listen but maybe we are just HEARING. What's the difference? Personally, hearing means the words get TO you but listening means the words get IN you. That is a vital fact that I feel most of us do not really understand. So hopefully after your post, new internet makerters have benefited. Cheers.

I'm sure I'm guilty of talking at people from time to time, but I do try to listen to them as much as I can. One of these main reasons I participate in forums is to hear what others are saying. I also try to listen to the comments here in regards to what people say in the comments as well as which posts they tend to comment on the most. I haven't always been happy with what I learned in listening either, but I know in the long run it's better to know. Absolutely.

I have learned so much from comments on our blog and from being on forums where our customers are. Sometimes I haven't loved what I learned, but it has saved me a lot of time and money in the long run. I think talking to customers is one of the most important things you can do.
