Austin, Minn. — As consumer expectations for fast, digital communication continue to grow, Cooperative Response Center, Inc. (CRC) is expanding its service line to meet those needs. CRC recently announced the launch of its newest service offering for its membership: Social Media Monitoring & Response.
The new service provides 24/7/365 monitoring of subscribers’ social media channels, delivering real-time responses, consistent member experiences, and proactive engagement. Designed to help electric utilities maintain a strong and responsive online presence, the service also includes content moderation, reputation protection, and critical communications support during outages and major events.
