social media promo that gave free pizza
to the biggest fans.
29% profit increase
a facebook fan page of 36,000 users in less than 90 days
fiercely loyal customers: not because the pizza was free, but because they
knew that Domino’s appreciated them…
10. Maybe you don’t run a “multinational
pizza company” like Domino’s, but
even if you sell “pepperoni presses
to people in Poughkeepsie…”
the right social media strategy executed correctly will drive
objectively measurable results.
11. to create a successful campaign,
defining a clear social media strategy that’s in line with your goals.
do you want a full fan page? do you want to open a new channel for
customer service? want to launch products to only your most loyal
fans? We got your back!
develop world class content. btw, we do that too!
establish your web presence, then make it grow!
manage the change. social media offers flexibility, but you have to
know how to roll with the punches.
talk your a** off! engage in conversations with users on a daily basis.
