David Pickering, Managing Director of Eclipse Marketing, believes that companies should be sitting up and paying attention to social networking rather than writing it off as a passing fad.
FSA accreditation provides assurance that providers adhere to industry standards and are compliant with codes of practice, as well as having the necessary management and security processes in place.
"While obtaining accreditation is a milestone, it is even more important that we maintain and build on the standards it represents", added Mapstone.
"FSA accreditation is part of a wider drive to continue the expansion of Eclipse's offerings, providing clients with end-to-end CRM solutions".
Despite the stringency of the FSA accreditation process, Eclipse was encouraged to find that no fundamental changes were needed in the way the company operates.
"Since we're already proponents of marketing best practice, for us it was very much 'business as usual'," Mapstone concluded.
