Today, local marketing is tremendously more powerful than national approaches. This deck is meant to help you build resources for franchisee owners (or local managers) to take advantage of local social media marketing in your location based business model. This is 1 of three decks that cover Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.
Franchise models have a unique social media challenge but a massive opportunity. Twitter marketing plans for multi-location brands present many challenges from how do you maintain control of location accounts as a brand to how to support location owners to market to reach people and build community in their market. Empowering location owners to harness social media can have a massive impact on your business. Providing location owners with the resources to be successful is the first step in a multi location social media strategy. Here is a franchisee beginners guide to operating a location based Twitter account outside of the brand.
